Who says you have to leave your furry best friend at home to go out for a bite? Atlanta has a plethora of options for animal lovers. Whether you’re looking for coffee in a quaint café surrounded by purring cats or a night out with friends — furry or otherwise — there’s something for you!
Fetch Park
Tonight’s plan: take Fido to the park, or go out for Happy Hour? Why not both? This trailblazing new off-leash dog park-slash-bar (a bark, if you will) in Old Fourth Ward is the perfect summer spot. It’s free to come without a dog and enjoy the open-air bar, but it’ll cost you $10 to bring your pup.

Henry’s Midtown Tavern
The huge outdoor patio at this modern pub is a favorite among Midtown’s poshest pups. The restaurant’s namesake is owner Maureen Kalmanson’s dog, Henry — so you know this is a dog-friendly space!

Java Cats Café
The first and only cat café in Atlanta, this charming spot is where cat lovers unite! Order a coffee or tea and book an hour-long session with their family of felines — ALL up for adoption through PAWS Atlanta. Pro tip: make a reservation beforehand, as this place gets busy quick.
