Take Your Doggie To Dinner in Chicago!
It seems like it’s getting harder to find pet-friendly restaurants and bars in Chicago. A lot of pet owners enjoy bringing their doggies with them just about everywhere. There were plenty of dog-friendly outdoor cafes all over the Chicago area. But the city of Chicago and the Health Department cracked down, or should I say added fees, for those establishments that would like to have you and your dog to dine. In 2008 the city of Chicago officially set rules for allowing dogs on patios. The rules state that dogs are allowed as long as the bar or restaurant has a Dog Friendly Area License. Here are just some of the doggie dining rules:
You must keep your pooch on a leash at all times. Your dog must have proof of rabies vaccine; like a city license tag. The restaurant is not to give the dogs anything but water and the restaurant employee (servers) should not have contact with the dog. (I’ve seen exceptions to this one) The restaurant must have outdoor seating accessible from the street. No walking Fido into the restaurant.
I have compiled a list of restaurants that are pet friendly. Some come from information that I found back in 2008 so check it out before you go.
