They encourage dogs and you get 50% off drinks during "Yappy Hour," every day (including weekends!!) from 4-10pm if you bring a dog!

For a good little dog friendly brunch spot, try Julia’s in Ridgewood, Queens! This was a great spot with dog friendly outdoor seating. It is also an all day cafe, so you can also get lunch or dinner there. They are definitely a popular spot and only have about 5 tables for outdoor seating so make sure you make a reservation so you don’t have to wait too long.

For a great Mexican with dog friendly outdoor seating, try Sonora. It is a great little spot with outdoor seating both against their restaurant and on the street. They have cute lights, bring treats and a bowl out for your dog and are so friendly.

Do you love nachos, margaritas, and amazing Cuban food? Then you need to try Havana Social on Stone Street in the Financial District of Manhattan.

Haab is an awesome Mexican restaurant in Williamsburg, Brooklyn with a nice dog friendly covered outdoor seating area and some great food and margaritas!

We stopped by for brunch and their Mexican breakfast options were fantastic with large portions.

8-Bit Bites is a cool spot with a dog friendly, fully enclosed and air conditioned/heated outdoor seating shack! They also have regular outdoor seating to the side of the shack.

(Unfortunately, ever since NYC passed the law that restaurants have to remove their street seating, we aren't sure if this is going to stay past November or not. We will update either way.)
