The Java House

Owned by a nice Greek family with a lot of personality. Located right next to the South Beach Park and AT&T Park, this is a great place to bring the pups for an afternoon in the sun. Pups join playgroups while their mommy's and daddy's enjoy breakfast or lunch at The Java House. They have game day specials. The breakfast sandwich is good and so is the classic breakfast. It is a weekend morning favorite for our family!

South Beach Park

This is a great park where you will always run into pups! It is right next to Java Hut so you can grab a cup of coffee and read the paper or make friends with the locals. The park is right by the Marina and some of the best weather in the city!

9/21 8:59pm

Westin St. Francis

This is a great hotel with lots of old charm. They hosted the SPCA Bark and Whine kickoff and it was very successful. The guests enjoyed seeing all the pups throughout the hotel and they are very accommodating. I wouldn't have thought that such a well-kept, nice hotel would be so dog friendly! I love it!

9/21 8:57pm

Timbuk2

This place has great bags that are durable. They were started in SF and have made their way around the country. Take your pooch in and do some shopping--very SF!

9/21 8:54pm

Sens Restaurant

This restaurant has just been redone and they did a great job. They have a covered patio with sofas and lounge chairs. The other patio area is uncovered with tables. The staff is really friendly and helpful. The mini lamb burgers are delicious!

I didn't have the pup with me when I went so I'm not sure where they are allowed. I'll update my post once I have more info!

9/21 8:50pm

Rose Pistola

The outdoor tables make you feel like you are in Italy! The food is decent, and the ambiance is the best part. Wait staff is friendly and helpful.

9/21 8:49pm

Rose's Cafe

Great brunch and abundant outdoor seating for you and your pooch.

9/21 8:48pm

Rigolo

Great cafe food, salads and sandwiches. A few outdoor tables to enjoy lunch with your pooch.

9/21 8:46pm

Pottery Barn

really friendly staff who are eager to help with home design. They even do house calls for free!

9/21 8:45pm

Pets Unlimited

Very friendly and helpful staff. Pup doesn't like the scale and prefers the perks at the SPCA.

9/21 8:41pm

Niketown San Francisco

Make sure your pooch doesn't mind the escalator in this store... great selection of Nike goods on several floors. It gets a bit crowded so make sure your pup is all set with lots of people...

9/21 8:37pm

Lululemon Athletica

Lulu is more expensive that Lucy and right across the street. They have a broader selection and geared more toward "active" than "lounge" wear. They are happy to have you and your pooch in there to shop!

9/21 8:36pm

Lucy

Lucy has great comfy clothes for yoga, jogging, or just relaxing around the house. They have lots of sales so keep a look out for some bargains. They are happy to have you and your pooch look around.

9/21 8:34pm

Lombardi Sports

A little on the pricey side, but you can find what you need! Great for skis, biking, exercise, etc. Parking is available but spots are on the small side. No need to leave your pup in the car!

9/21 8:32pm

Left At Albuquerque

Great happy hour and nice high top tables outside. Yummy margaritas and bottomless chips and salsa. Pooch friendly outside.

9/21 8:29pm

Golden Gate Park

A beautiful place to spend a sunny afternoon. Lots of different places to discover in the park. I love the gardens near the Conservatory of Flowers and walking around by the Academy of Sciences and the Japanese Tea Gardens.

9/21 8:25pm

Golden Gate Bridge

The most notorious SF landmark! Fantastic views of the city and a great walk out above the water. It is only about a mile all the way across so make a round trip on a beautiful day. Your pooch will love the brisk walk--just don't look down!

9/21 8:22pm

Farley's

Great Pot Hill coffee shop. Nice, homey feel and good coffee.

9/21 8:20pm

DSW Shoe Warehouse

What more could a girl ask for--shoes and pups in the same place?? They have great deals on designer shoes, and they keep going on sale until they are all gone, so try to time it right!

9/21 8:19pm

Delancey Street Restaurant

The food here is pretty inexpensive and good. Delancey Street is a great organization that gives people a second chance at coming back into the community. Their good-hearted nature shows through in the amazing service they provide--hard-workers at their best! The outside patio is nice to relax with your pooch.

9/21 8:15pm

Crate & Barrel

I'm a huge fan of crate and barrel... great stuff for home and nice they let pooch help you pick out his own furniture... :)

9/21 8:13pm

Coit Tower

Gorgeous views of the city... Go on and take the stairs up from the bottom of the hill--great exercise! Parking isn't great.

9/21 8:11pm

Catch

This place has excellent food and a great atmosphere. They have a good patio on Market St.

9/21 8:06pm

Asqew Grill

A couple of tables for outdoor seating and the food is pretty good. I like the BBQ chicken skewer and the spinach salad. You have to tie the pups up outside and go in to order. Everything is made to order so it takes a little extra time.

9/21 8:00pm

Petco

My dog isn't a huge fan of this place because I left him here to be groomed a few times. The new dog likes all the toys and how big the store is... they have everything, but are more expensive than Pet Club across the bridge. They do grooming and have a large variety of food and toys.

9/21 7:53pm

21st Amendment Brewery

I give it a 2 for dog friendliness, but I'd give it a 4 for food and atomosphere alone. They only have outdoor seating on game days and it's quite crowded. Good beers and pub food...

9/21 7:50pm

Taylor's Refresher

This is such a popular place, and I'm not sure of the official pet policy but I've been there at least a dozen times and never had a problem. I just tie the pups up outside at the tables along the Embarcadero side and keep them next to me. The Miss Kentucky is my favorite sandwich and don't forget the Sweet Potato Fries! Yum!

9/21 7:47pm

Piccino Coffee & Espresso

This is a nice place to grab a thin crust pizza and glass of wine. The pups can chill with you in the shade or the tables in the sun. They serve good blue bottle coffee so grab a book and come hang out.

9/21 7:45pm

Hi Dive

They just opened up the patio on the Embarcadero side so I imagine they wouldn't mind if you tied your pup on outside of the fence but right next to you.

9/21 7:41pm

Mission Dolores Park

This is such a great park for everything from dogs, to picnics, to people watching. Lots of room for fetch and fido is sure to meet lots of new friends.

9/21 7:40pm

Mission Creek Dog Park

It is nice to have this park in our neighborhood, and there is a good number of dogs and people there. It's a little of the beaten path, but worth the walk through the nice Mission Creek Park. There is a great path along the channel so do the whole loop before and after your stop for fetch at the fenced in dog park!

9/21 7:36pm

South Beach Cafe

This is a nice little cafe with great food (I like pizza the best). There are a few tables outside to enjoy some food with your pup.

9/21 7:32pm

Chez Papa Bistrot

Really friendly staff and the food is delicious! Outside heaters are great for those chilly nights!

9/21 7:31pm

Apple Store

Staff is very friendly and helpful, but it is pretty crowded in the store.

9/21 7:30pm

Ocean Beach

Great beach with lots of room to play. Be careful not to accidentally head into the "no dog zone" because they will come get ya... Can get a little windy so be sure to layer!

9/21 7:28pm

Park Chalet

The Park Chalet is a great place to take your pup after some beach play on Ocean Beach. They have great food, live music, and lots of room on the grass and in the Adirondack chairs...

9/21 7:25pm

Reds Java House

Great place to grab a beer and enjoy the bay. The burgers on the sourdough rolls are great! Lots of place for pooches out back and lots of parking (not on game day).

9/21 7:20pm

Baker Beach

My pups love this beach. Parking isn't too bad in the neighborhood off Lake. Lots of places for the pups to run free and enjoy the water and the sand.

9/21 7:17pm

Bella and Daisy's

I have found some of the favorite toys from this shop. A little on the pricey side but sooo cute and has great finds.

9/21 7:12pm

Harry's Bar

Great burgers, and a nice atmosphere on Filmore...

9/21 7:08pm

San Francisco SPCA

I am a huge fan and supporter of the SF/SPCA! All of the people on staff are amazing and wonderful people. The vet hospital is still fairly new, but they are working out the kinks (ie. I waited in the hospital room for over an hour before the doctor remembered I was there). Still a great cause, and I am very thankful to have my first dog from there. They are saving dogs lives everyday and they are a wonderful place to be involved with.

9/21 6:53pm

San Francisco Giants Baseball

We go to the Dog Days of Summer every year and the pooches LOVE it! We had an amazing time (although I prefer the daytime event)! Don't forget to go early and walk around the field. They are a little strict on keeping the line moving, but try to stop and sneak as many pics as possible. Amazing opportunity!

9/21 6:50pm

Velo Rouge Cafe

good food and friendly staff. Nice outside tables (although a bit slanted). Great for a afternoon beer on a nice day after GG Park.

9/21 6:47pm

Philz Coffee

They used to let dogs inside, but OSHA came in and cracked down on that. Now dogs allowed outside. They've added more chairs outside for you and your pooch to sit. The coffee is delicious and the staff is very friendly.

9/21 6:45pm

Sports Basement

huge selection of sporting goods (but a limited doggie section). Great prices.

9/21 6:42pm

Liverpool Lil's

Not the greatest food, but they have outdoor seating with a great view!

9/21 6:41pm

Crissy Field

The dogs get sooo excited when we pull into the parking lot at Crissy Field. It is their favorite spot in the city. Lots of dogs to play with and a great jogging path to the bridge.

9/21 6:40pm

Just For You Cafe

Delicious breakfast and often a long line, but it doesn't take too long. They are pretty quick and have 2 tables outside.

9/21 6:39pm

Catnip & Bones

Very friendly management and lots of great things for puppy to enjoy.

9/21 6:34pm

Squat & Gobble

Great crepes and a few outdoor tables for you and your pooch.

9/21 6:33pm

The Grove

One of my favorite places to hang out. They have a great food selection and nice place to hang out with your pup. Lots of outdoor seating, but get there early on a nice day.

9/21 6:30pm

Furry Tales

Julia is very nice and helpful. The pups love trips into the store to check out the latest goodies.

9/21 6:27pm

Specialty's Cafe & Bakery

The best sandwiches in the city! Definitely order online and you barely have to walk in--it is waiting for you by the door! The waterside is definitely the place to munch on your lunch with your pup. And don't forget the black and white cookie!

9/21 6:26pm

Safeway

I love that Safeway let's you bring your dog to the store to do some shopping. I don't take them for big shopping trips but its easy to just run in a grab a few things when you have your pup.

9/21 6:23pm

Panera Bread

The food is pretty good if you are in the mood for something consistent. I like the 'you pick 2 sandwich and salad'. plenty of tables outside for the pooches.

9/21 6:19pm

Farmerbrown's Little Skillet

The chicken and waffles are great! Actually the chicken is the best--the waffles weren't my fave. Such a great neighborhood find! Grab some blue bottle coffee next door while you are at it!

9/21 6:16pm

Blush Organic Frozen Yogurt

I love this new frozen yogurt place in our neighborhood! Tastes delish (kinda sour but so good with the oreo bits)! Pretty low-cal and good to sit outside (although, I prefer to bring my pooch to the water a block away instead of busy King Street)...

9/21 6:14pm

Borders

Friendly staff and love dogs. Grab a seat (not in the cafe) and get into a good book.

9/21 6:11pm

Fort Funston

Gorgeous place for the pups to roam and play on the beach. My pooches get a little scared of the occasional horse and the entrance/exit is a little steep, but well worth it! Make a picnic and spend the day!

9/21 5:49pm

Palomino

Catch some great afternoon rays over the bay bridge with your pooch! The wait staff is very friendly and love dogs.

9/21 5:44pm

Boulettes Larder

This is one of my favorite places to have a nice brunch with my pooches! The wait staff is so friendly and will set up a table if they don't have any outside. They are dog lovers and very friendly. The food is FANTASTIC! Very creative dishes that are unique and delicious! (No brunch on Saturdays because of farmers market).

9/21 5:37pm

Alta Plaza Park

Lots of dogs to play with at the Alta Plaza Park. Parking is somewhat difficult and the big hill and stairs can be a challenge for some. The grassy area at the top of the hill is very picturesque and looks out over the city. Feel free to join the other pooches off leash.

7/24 5:53pm

Town's End Restaurant & Bakery

Love the Cobb scramble and the pups love joining us outside for breakfast!

7/24 5:50pm

Paragon Restaurant & Bar

Great outdoor seating and pet friendly. Love the mac n cheese!

7/24 5:48pm

The Creamery

Great for nice days outside with your pup! Good foo and good coffee!
