This St. Johns standby is a neighborhood haunt, thanks to its front-and-back patios, hot-pressed sandwiches, and summery boozy popsicles. It’s also a fantastic spot to bring a dog for a snack and a drink, with an enclosed back space, picnic tables, and other dogs strolling by. And for those who prefer leafy friends to furry ones, Leisure now sells succulents and other houseplants.

Portland’s original dog bar has multiple locations throughout the city — each with dog-friendly patios, ample water bowls, and adorable photo opportunities for your pup.

All personality with zero pretension, the Florida Room is a dog-friendly Portland original, thankfully bearing only a passing resemblance to the vibes of the actual sunshine state. A large covered and heated patio means dog owners can chill with their best pals year-round, drinking cheap tall boys and affordable citrus-forward cocktails, or noshing on a vaunted Florida burger or tofu wings with vegan ranch. Come regularly enough and you just might see your quote on their famous marquee.

One of Portland’s more faithful approximations of New-Haven-style pizza, Dimo’s Burnside pizzeria has plenty of dog-friendly outdoor seating, so customers can sit in the sun with a clam pie and sneak their pups a few stray pepperonis.

One of the more popular brunch spots in northeast Portland, this cafe is a favorite among dog owners for its little dog dinner of chicken and sweet potatoes, as well as an add-on dog dessert of bananas, peanut butter, and yogurt. There’s a covered patio as well as an adjoining one with umbrellas and tables, and customers can buy a Tin Shed doggie bandana knowing the proceeds will go to animal rescue groups.

This unabashedly dog-friendly wine pop-up is a favorite among dog owners throughout the city. Once a stand-alone wine bar, Cellar Dog now pops up regularly on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday evenings at Sellwood’s Plural Collective, with frequent special events like daytime small dog mimosa socials. Wine is sold by the bottle as well as by the glass, from a fun assortment of mostly North American wineries. And even in a dog-loving town like Portland, Cellar Dog may take the cake — er, biscuit — by offering dog walking services.

Eating freshly made tamales with a pint-sized margarita in hand is an excellent way to bide time with your pup.

With several spacious indoor sections — some chill, others lively and game-filled — along with an expansive covered patio, southeast’s Thunderbird has a vibe for almost everyone, including dogs and their people. Officially only allowed on the patio, dogs are particularly beloved by the Thunderbird staff and routinely show up on the bar’s social media. Humans can enjoy a solid, vegetarian- and vegan-heavy food menu (with a few meat classics as well), along with an interesting tap list and fun house cocktails.

In recent years, Foster-Powell’s 5 & Dime has made its hot dog-packed food menu part of its core identity, but to regulars, it might be better known for its love of a different kind of dog. With two long side patios — including one with gas fire pits at each picnic table — 5 & Dime is apt for an outdoor hang on all but the most frigid of winter days. 5 & Dime supplements a solid beer and cider list with stellar seasonally rotating mixed drinks, as well as some quick classic cocktails on tap for busier nights. Keep an eye out for certain neighborhood celebrity canines who are among the bar’s most cherished patrons.
