Which Restaurants In Grand Rapids Allow Dogs? Here Are 10
The weather has been nothing short of fantastic lately, which means you're probably bringing your dog out and about with you. If you want to bring your dog to dinner with you, there are quite a few restaurants around Grand Rapids that are more than okay with that.
Bring Fido App
My parents have two puppies that are super fun and love being outside. She recently showed me this app she downloaded called Bring Fido that shows which restaurants in your area are pet-friendly and users can also rate the restaurant as a whole. Think of it like Yelp but for dog lovers.
I decided to check out which restaurants around Grand Rapids are dog-friendly and was surprised by how many are. Most of the restaurants on this list allow pets if you're sitting outside (which is perfect with how the weather has been). Since many restaurants added outdoor seating during the pandemic, pet-friendly eateries have grown quite a bit over the years.
