We have a small Shih Tzu named Mercy. We are retired and planning to travel the country with our sweet girl!

Great patio and food. Wine is OK

D.H. Lescombes Winery & Bistro

Nice shaded spot for a pup with a large grassy area off the patio

Grass area on a steep hill

Hotel Encanto de Las Cruces

We saw pictures on the hotel website of a fairly large, flat, lawn - which is why we switched our reservation to this place. Unfortunately, that space is “reserved event space” and dogs aren’t allowed. The very limited other grass area is on a steep hill and not at all conducive to puppy activity

One of few spots to find green grass

James Rooney Memorial Park

Lovely park and literally one of the few places in the entire town that has green grass - sprinklers were running this morning. Lots of picnic tables and a huge playground

Beware of the grass spurs

TownePlace Suites by Marriott Laplace

Hard to avoid in the area - they were abundant here. Otherwise, the hotel was great - quiet with a nice courtyard and fenced basketball hoop area where we let the pup run and chase toys

Great spot overlooking the lake

Laguna's Mexican Grill and Cantina

Loved the upper deck area. Based upon an earlier review, we called ahead to ensure dogs were allowed and the only comment was that they had to be leashed. Good grass at the bank across the street. Great food!

Combined with the Wine Garden

Bayou Beer Garden

Plenty of grass in the median across the street. Beautiful courtyard area!!

Combined with Bayou Beer Garden

Bayou Wine Garden

Wow! What an awesome garden area - well shaded throughout! There’s crawfish available from an on-site kitchen. Bars inside and out. Beautiful spot!

Great patio and pup welcome inside too!

The Bulldog Mid-City

We chose to sit on the shady patio. There are five large TVs outside showing sporting events. Food was great!

Absolutely beautiful park with a lot of shade!

Alfred B. Maclay Gardens State Park

There’s a very large “recreational area” with picnic tables, nice bathrooms, a boat launch, and playground. Lots of nice grass for the pups. Down the road, there’s a nice trail around the lake. We went out about a mile and then back, but the loop is about 3 miles. Loved this park!

Very friendly with shaded spots

Harry's Continental Kitchens

Grassy areas are a block over. Great food and service!!!

Apr. 23, 2024

Huge umbrellas for shade! Amazing food!

Le Colonne Restaurant

Our pup was really happy here as it’s off the main circle where all the traffic and noise are. The umbrellas are massive and provide amazing shade. Food and wine list are the best in the area, IMO. Love this spot!!!

Outdoor covered patio with fans and heating lamps

Farlow's on the Water

We consider this the nicest restaurant in the area. Great Caribbean and Southern US food options. Beautiful seating options on the covered patio or out in the open closer to the water. Lovely foliage all around.

Between Punta and Fort Myers - great spot

The Lakehouse Kitchen & Bar

This place is about 25 minutes from Punta Gorda so don’t know how it has this address but it was a beautiful spot. Nice, covered, terrace that is welcoming of pups overlooking the water. Lots of TVs and a fairly broad menu that includes gluten-free and vegan options. Grassy area just outside the terrace.

Great breeze on a hot day

SandBar Tiki & Grille

Due to its position near the water, this spot gets nice breezes to cool your pup. Live music daily starting at 1 pm

Apr. 20, 2024

Nice spot with human bathrooms

Larry Taylor Kiwanis Park

Quiet little park with workout stations throughout. Nice fauna-filled pathways and a big open field.

Apr. 20, 2024

Really loud from the highway

Residence Inn by Marriott Gainesville I-75

Stay was fine but rather rough for the pup. “Grassy” areas are typical Florida crunchy weeds which my dog didn’t appreciate. Right off the highway which is very loud. Workable but probably will find another spot in the future.

Mid-60’s and patio seating wasn’t a problem

Creatwood Tavern

Pretty good food and a mix of sunny and shaded seating. Very friendly to our pup.

Apr. 16, 2024

Great sunset spot!

The Waverly Restaurant & Bar

I can’t add anything substantial to what the prior reviewer posted. Great spot with tropical cocktails and great food. Brought our pup a water bowl and a treat. Very welcoming

Apr. 16, 2024

Love the deck on the river - also covered space for shade

Swampy's Bar & Grille

This place is very dog friendly, food is really good and pretty inexpensive. Have been here many many times.

Apr. 16, 2024

Covered patio provides shade

Swamp Head Brewery

There’s also a separate pavilion with shade. Super dog friendly. There was a Mexican food stand on the day we were there. Great beer as well!

Apr. 16, 2024

Peaceful walk with $10 entrance fee

Kanapaha Botanical Gardens

Lots of bamboo and foliage - pretty spot and dog friendly

Apr. 16, 2024

Excellent covered patio with heat lamps!

The Wine Bar On Palafox

Staff was super friendly. Offered us a water dish and loved on our pup! The space is great. Covered and fully protected from the cold, wind, rain, or sun. Heat lamps put out some great heat. Wine list was phenomenal. We didn’t eat but the fools menu looked nice too.
