Whether you’re sipping craft cocktails on the pet-friendly, open-air patio at Boozehounds in Palm Springs or ordering from the Patio Pooch Menu during “yappy hour” at Pinzimini (known for their Italian-inspired cuisine), Greater Palm Springs makes dining alfresco with your dog an experience like no other. Here are a few of our favorite spots.

Check in at dog-friendly stays

Several Greater Palm Springs properties welcome canine guests with open paws, from the Chateau at Lake La Quinta, a lakefront hotel that provides plush pet beds and even a special menu just for your pooch, to the ACE Hotel & Swim Club, where pups can enjoy an on-site dog park or even hang with you by the pool.

Enjoy off-leash open spaces

Soak up some sun while fetching and frolicking with new furry friends. You’ll find space to get all those zoomies out at the dog park (and Greater Palm Springs has plenty). Almost all offer stunning views of the mountains, and some even feature solar lights for nighttime fun.
