Taking our dog to Asheville in a couple of weeks and were wondering if there are any casual places that allow dogs on their patios. I've done numerous web searches and can't find any info.

Thanks in advance.

I don't know if they have rest. info, but petswelcome.com is a good site for other stuff so give it a try.

www.takeyourpet.com, there is a small fee to join.

I don't believe you're going to find any restaurant advertising that you can bring your dog to eat on their patios. There may be some who will, once you arrive there, but I don't think they would advertise it. If you find some, let me know, Brian, because I can't tell you how many sandwiches we've eaten in the car with the air on because we couldn't leave the pooch in the hot car!

I guess we need to live in gay Pa - ree!!!!!!!!!!

a agree with bonniebroad. We have brought our large dog to a few patio restaurants and also to bars. But they only allowed us after we called and asked first. And it's very interesting how the dog is a total magnet. So many people approach us because they are attracted to the dog. Some people call it a chick magnet.

When we were in Charleston a few weeks ago, we were at Magnolia Plantation, and there was actually a dog brought on our boat to take a ride around the rice paddy. Then in another part of the gardens, someone eating at a table near the outdoor food stand had a big dog at their feet. I wouldn't have thought of taking our dog in there.......... but I guess there's no problem because no one seemed to mind!

Thanks guys. I understand that most places won't advertise this. I guess I was hoping a local in the know would see this.

Places w/ outdoor dining:

Salsa
Mellow Mushroom
Blue Moon
Sunny Point Cafe

I don't know how they feel about dogs, but these places are casual and I would be willing to bet that a well behaved dog would be overlooked. Salsa is the best food of the 4 and the only one open for dinner.

New French Bar and Flying Frog both have a pleasant outdoor drinking area, but I don't know about the food.
