Whether it's lunch, brunch, dinner or just a snack, Manchester has plenty for you and your dog to feast on. The city has a buzzing food scene, and there are plenty of tail-wagging options around.
But with so many to choose from, it can get tough to pick the right one for you - especially because not all restaurants (somehow) are dog-friendly.
Read on to see which dog-friendly restaurants in Manchester make our shortlist.
Rudy's Neapolitan Pizza
Neapolitan food is well-loved around the world for good reason: it's tasty, inexpensive and keeps you going for hours - and Rudy's does it just right.
Originally starting as a pizzeria in Ancoats, the company has now become a nationwide chain.
They're all dog-friendly, so if you fancy a slice Manchester's food scene while exploring its vibrant streets, this is it.
The Refuge
The Refuge is the place to be if you want a visually unique, eye-catching venue that's become a Manchester landmark.
Sitting in the Kimpton Clocktower Hotel, it's the ideal spot if you want dinner or a romantic date, and yes, your dog can come along too!
The Sunday roast has lots of fans, and it's well worth the money. And yes, the staff love dogs!
Pho
There's nothing quite like the craving for a steaming bowl of noodles. Luckily, Pho, the beloved Vietnamese chain, is not only delicious but also dog-friendly, making their Manchester location a must-visit for any noodle lover with a canine companion.
If you're not in the mood for noodles - they've got you covered. Zingy curries, fresh salads, fluffy buns... wow, is anyone else salivating?
You'll find them tucked away in the iconic Corn Exchange - perfectly positioned to round off a busy day in the city centre.
Mr Thomas's Chophouse
Okay, this is some real Manchester heritage here. This local staple has been serving food for 150 (yes, 150) years, and this rich experience is still seen today.
Sitting in a Grade II listed building, it's considered a local institution in Manchester for more than just its looks: a vibrant, seasonal menu, friendly staff and to-die-for corned beef hash and steak and kidney pudding. What's not to like?
Oh, and they love dogs. Woof!
Crazy Pedro’s, Northern Quarter
What can you say when somewhere is called Crazy Pedro's? Yes, the name is well-earned - it's known for some bouncy and wild late-night drinks, but don't let that put you off: this is one of Manchester's best daytime food spots.
It's a chilled place to unwind, especially if you fancy a drop of tequila, mezcal or a quench-busting frozen margarita. The pizza here is the main appeal, though - lots of classic flavours and some unique choices.
Plus the staff love to welcome dogs, so you and your pup can enjoy a dog-friendly slice of Manchester.
The Banyan Tree
This splash of culinary flavour in Castlefield has become a local favourite thanks to its top-tier food, unique menu (Korean food alongside Italian, for example) and a comfy, relaxed vibe.
The varied menu makes sure there's something for everyone here, and the staff hospitality isn't just for us humans - it extends to dogs, too! There's even a dog menu, making this a Manchester favourite to give your dog a special treat.
