Black Lab Cafe-Manhattan
Black Lab Cafe was formerly a fully dog friendly cafe but since January 24, 2024, they no longer allow dogs inside as they once did. Now they only allow service dogs inside as they serve full meals. They do have an outdoor seating shack, but outdoor dining will be only allowed from April-November in NYC in the upcoming year, so this will no longer be a dog friendly location all year round. They still have two separate sections of the cafe, one where you can order coffee, other cafe beverages, and cafe snacks, and the other one with tables that people sit inside to order food (not dog friendly). The outdoor section currently has a roof, but does not have heaters and is not enclosed to prevent wind or rain. We used to be a huge fan of this spot but no longer recommend it highly.
We give this spot 2/4 paws because it is only dog friendly when the weather is nice.
Dog Seating:
Dogs only allowed outside.
Drinks: Cafe beverages, coffees, teas, etc.
Food: Cafe foods, sandwiches, salads, etc.
