If you have a dog, chances are you’re not too crazy about leaving him or her behind. But if you’re the kind of person who really enjoys eating out, that desire to have your fur-baby around at all times can become problematic.
The good news is that Jacksonville, being a relatively pet-friendly city, has plenty of food options that will allow you to bring your beloved doggy friend along with you.
Generally speaking, most restaurants with an outdoor seating area will let you have your dog with you – assuming they’re well-behaved. This goes even for the city’s many chain restaurants, such as Outback Steakhouse or Hooters.
But if you’re looking for a nice locally-based eating experience to share with your pup, we’ve compiled a list of several restaurants that local dog owners swear by.
Brick Restaurant, located in Avondale, offers a similar advantage to Carmines: a highly walkable area in its immediate surroundings.
The restaurant offers a wide selection of elevated American cuisine. Their outdoor patio area is perfect for dog owners, and the staff usually brings your dog some water and even a treat.
Brick is located at 3585 St. Johns Avenue.
