East Atlanta Spots Named Some Of Atlanta's Dog-Friendliest Patios

ATLANTA -- With spring in full swing and summer not far ahead, pets and people alike are heading to local restaurants and bars with Fido in tow. Restaurants are brushing off their patios and opening them up to customers to enjoy their meals in the fresh air. A number of them are welcoming furry friends onto their patios to enjoy a meal beside their human companions or to just kick back with a bowl of water.

Eater Atlanta has named these East Atlanta restaurants as having some of Atlanta's most dog-friendly patios.

Ladybird Grove & Mess Hall, 684 John Wesley Dobbs Ave NE

• "Taking up about 4,000 square feet, the yard at this Beltline spot is ideal for soaking up all summer has to offer: beer, snacks, and happy dogs."

Nina & Rafi, 661 Auburn Ave NE

• "After walking the Beltline with the dog, take a break on the patio at Nina & Rafi for Detroit-style pizza paired with a cold pint of beer or a glass of wine. There’s plenty of outdoor seating overlooking the trail beyond at this dog-friendly patio."

Noni's, 357 Edgewood Ave SE

• " 'Noni loves you', and the dogs. The back patio of Noni’s Deli is a quiet escape from the noise and traffic along busy Edgewood Avenue. Anchored by a large fountain with string lights and foliage scattered throughout, head here with the dog for heaping bowls of pasta or a giant deli sandwich paired with wine, beer, or a strong cocktail on a warm evening."

97 Estoria, 727 Wylie St SE

• "Cabbagetown’s eclectic 97 Estoria provides plenty of tabletop umbrellas and massive bowls of water for sunny patio meals spent with four-legged friends."
