Dog-friendly patio dining!
Pumphouse BreweryWe were pleased to dine here out on the patio with our dogs! Staff was friendly & accommodating and immediately bring out a fresh bowl of water for your pooch. Pumphouse also sells a plain burger patty & chicken breast for your dogs for just $5 each! So of course we got 1 of each to take home for their dinner. This will definitely be a fave restaurant that we take our dogs to!
Dog-friendly kayak & paddleboard rentals!
Rocky Mountain Paddleboard - LongmontSuper impressed with the young people working at RMP-L! They were all so very gracious, helpful, supportive, friendly and chatty. We felt confident and at ease being able to get in/out of our kayaks. We are very new to kayaking and are trying to take our dogs as well, so we need more help than most people do. All of the staff were very patient and kind. We'll definitely rent from them again!
Nice, friendly off-leash dog beach!
Union Reservoir Dog BeachThe park was clean. The dogs that were in the water, around the park and in the dog-specific beach area were all great! We did not run into any aggressive dogs, they were all friendly & sweet! Owners were watchful and trusted their well-behaved pooches off-leash in the dog area. On-leash is required everywhere else in the park, which is nice.
There is a kayak & paddleboard rental shop onsite that allows you to kayak with your dogs too!
The water is a little "gunky", pretty greenish and had all of the little floaty things from the trees above. Still, not too bad and at least didn't smell dirty. You'll want to bathe your dogs after they swim in this water, in my opinion. We certainly did!
The best restaurant in town to take your pets!
Lakefront ExpressLakefront was our #1 favorite restaurant that we went to during our time at Lake Mac! The owners are incredibly welcoming & friendly. The food was fresh and tasty. The homemade lavender ice cream was the best!
This is a great place for families with small children as well as dogs. There is a sizable play area for kids and a grassy place for dogs to stretch their legs after a long car ride. There are a few outside tables where you can dine with your dogs. One larger table is covered under a gazebo, which is nice and shady.
Last but not least, the bathrooms are incredibly clean! The whole facility was the cleanest place we visited near the lake - hands down, immaculate!! The outside is well maintained, there are plenty of trash cans available and you can tell the owners take great pride in their business. There is a little store inside with an air hockey table and an arcade game too.
We will definitely be back the next time we are in town!
Covered patio dining with dogs
BoxcarBoxcar allows you to dine on their large covered patio with your leashed 4-legged-friends. There is a somewhat grassy area next to the back parking lot where you can take your dogs out for a bathroom break if needed.
Our server was exceptional and friendly, food was some of the best we had in town and the local craft beers were tasty! We would definitely go here again!
Self-service pub & grill
Open RangeThe high point of this place is that we were able to dine on the patio with our dogs. However, this place was pretty much completely self-service. You had to order at the bar, carry your drinks with you, bus your own station, and throw away your trash. Someone does bring your food out to you, but they are very fast about it and not friendly. Food is just OK. Typical pub food. Beer selection is decent, including some local ones. Would probably return again if there was no other dog, friendly restaurants in town available.
Our fave dog-friendly dining place in Vail!
La Tour Restaurant & BarWe have taken our 2 GSPs to La Tour for the past several years. The staff is always very accommodating with their patio seating. They even provided us extra room when we needed to have our senior dog in a large stroller. 10/10 food, service and pet-friendliness!!
Our fave restaurant in Vail!
Auberge de La Tour Bar Restaurant GroceryFor the past several years we have eaten here for our anniversary dinner. We are able to take our kids + our dogs and dine out on the patio. Service is always amazing and the food is stellar! We will definitely be back!
Very dog friendly & clean!
Antlers at VailWe always stay at Antlers with our dogs, every trip to Vail. They are very accommodating and provide lush dog beds & food/water dishes. The condos are very well laid out to accommodate your 4-legged friend.
