Eating out with your dog: pet-friendly restaurants, bars and terraces

Finding dog-friendly restaurants in Spain isn't the hard part. The hard part is showing up with your dog and discovering the welcome wasn't quite as warm as advertised. Here we only list places we've visited or personally verified: bars where nobody bats an eye, dog-friendly terraces with water bowls and proper shade, and restaurants that allow dogs inside — not just on the outdoor terrace.

How to use this directory

Each listing includes the venue's real pet policy: whether dogs are allowed inside or only on the outdoor terrace, any size or breed restrictions, and whether they provide water bowls or dog snacks. No vague promises — you know exactly what to expect before you arrive.

The golden rule is still to call ahead the first time, especially on weekends or during peak season. Chain restaurants like Federal Café have a consistent pet-friendly policy across all their locations, making them a safe bet when exploring a new city.

Looking for restaurants in a specific area? Jump to your zone using the sections above. If you have a large or restricted breed, the breed filter on each listing will save you more than one phone call.
