Dog-friendly restaurants and cafes in the city

Moontone is a cafe created by the same team behind popular yoghurt drink shop Cheung Chau Corner which, much like its sister shop, is a cafe your Instagram feed will love. The cafe is themed around the Pantone colours, particularly leaning towards pastel tones, and offers a bright and airy space with casual cushioned floor seating, wooden tables, blue Pantone wall, and even a faux tree in the middle of the cafe. Moontone is also pet-friendly, so you can bring your cats, dogs and pets with you inside on Mondays (except public holidays). 

The all-day dining restaurant is located in Tung Chung T Bay's waterfront retail space (which is right by the Sheraton Hong Kong Tung Chung hotel) and features indoor and outdoor seating, making it an ideal venue for casual get-togethers with friends and family, and it’s super pet-friendly too! Humans can enjoy alfresco moments with their pets while dining on fresh and grilled seafood items on the menu, along with comforting pasta and pizza dishes, all with a touch of Mediterranean coastal flavour.

Located in West Kowloon Cultural District, Hooman By The Sea is a  pet-friendly cafe offering both indoor and outdoor seating for you and your pooch. The eatery’s hotdog items on the menu are named after different dog breeds such as poodle, husky, and chihuahua. For the dog's treat, they offer ice cream in various flavours such as chicken liver, happy herring, and cool cod, as well as biscuits and other treats. This couldn’t be a more ideal day out – you sipping on some blue lemonade and your puppy having an icy, delicious (well, to them) ice cream bowl.

With branches across the city, Elephant Grounds is ideal for breakfast and brunch with or without your best furry pal. Their latest branch on Hollywood Road offers 7,000sq ft of space with an in-house bakery kitchen, roastery room, and outdoor seating that can accommodate pets.

Their K11 Musea venue is also spacious with a dog-friendly rooftop for alfresco moments where your dog can sit and lounge beside you.

Ruam’s spacious outdoor terrace is embellished with greenery, transporting diners and pups miles away from Wan Chai’s bustling streets. The eatery provides a great space for you and your dog-mate to spend some quality time together. Indulge in the restaurant's signature Thai dishes and craft cocktails and let your pooch lounge and relax while you dine. Make sure to call Ruam to let you know you are bringing your pet pal so they can reserve a dog-friendly table for you.

Situated along Cotton Tree Drive and directly across Hong Kong Park is The Murray, a pet-friendly hotel allowing guests to bring one pet for their room and the hotel’s restaurant, The Murray’s Cotton Tree Terrace – a sleek open garden space that not only offers afternoon tea sets for humans but provides treats for dogs too. Choose between a hearty meal of chicken breast and quinoa, a lollipup and crunchy cookies and ice cream for your pups and let them indulge in an ultimate high tea experience with you.

With outdoor seating in Tsim Sha Tsui and Sai Wan Ho locations, The Salted Pig is a fur-iendly spot to bring your pooch. They even provide a dog parking space where you can latch in your pups harness if you just need to order for takeaway. While the human food menu offers a wide range of delicious dishes for you to choose from, the eatery doesn't provide dog food, so best to pack up some treats and water for your furry friends.

Situated right opposite Victoria Park, Little Bao has a number of bao offerings ranging from savoury pork-belly or fried chicken bao to sweet green tea or salted caramel ice cream bao. Your pups can stick by your side in their generously spaced outdoor area. It's a great dining spot and a great opportunity to take your pup on a mid-day adventure as they sunbathe while watching the highway cars go by. 

Feather and Bone invites everyone to dine with their dogs at their Tsuen Wan branch, which is their biggest outlet in the city boasting an extensive outdoor terrace with views overlooking the water. While guests savour offerings of quality meats or sip on lattes, dogs can prance around and embrace the restaurants’ spacious waterfront patio.

For those in the Central area, Feather & Bone Mid-Levels terrace is also the perfect setting for your four-legged pal. Featuring a stunning array of fairy lights and electric coloured seating and furniture, this high-spirited rooftop hosts a wide space for pups to explore around. To get your hands on fresh bones and trims, visit their butcher counter at every Feather & Bone outlet.

For a refreshing change of scenery, head on over to Repulse Bay – even their shopping mall, The Pulse, is pet-friendly. Along the beach are pet-friendly restaurants where you’ll be spoilt for choice.

Get a seat outside and enjoy a breezy afternoon with your pup chomping away on hearty food while watching people stroll along the promenade. 

Teakha’s homey, tranquil outdoor area is no stranger to dogs – its reposeful energy acts as a zen spot in the city for both you and your pup. Sip on masala chai and indulge in a slice of green tea cheesecake with your pooch lounging by your side.

Black Sheep’s ever-busy Stazione Novella known for their breakfast panini’s, coffees and cocktails, welcome dogs in their eatery. Have your breakfast panini with your pup right next to you in Stazione Novella’s comfy seating areas. If you’d like to come for a mid-day drink with your dog, consider ordering a doggie cake from Black Sheep’s online bakery, the Butter Cake Shop, so your pooch can also indulge while you're having your happy hour.

For pet parents that are craving some New York-style Italian fare, head to Fini’s Central or Wan Chai location and tag your dog along. The much-loved casual Soho hangout does some appetising meals including homemade pasta pappardelle nose to tail bolognaise – a decadent dish that pasta lovers will surely devour, containing pork cheek, veal loin, and oxtail ragu. But don’t forget to bring some dog treats to keep your pal satisfied throughout your meal.
