Dog-Friendly Happy Hours in St. Paul

11 spots where you can bring your pup and enjoy happy hour specials in St. Paul, MN.

Updated

St. Paul is a genuinely dog-loving city, and its walkable, park-laced neighborhoods make bringing your pup along to happy hour easy in the warm months. From Grand Avenue's strolling crowds to the paths around Lake Phalen and the riverfront trails, plenty of the capital's patios welcome a well-behaved dog on a leash while you enjoy an after-work drink.

A few practical notes make the outing smoother. Dog-friendly seating is almost always outdoors, so these spots come and go with patio season—call ahead in cooler months to confirm the patio is still open. Bring water for your dog on hot days, though some venues keep bowls on hand, and stick to leashes and the patio areas since indoor dining rooms rarely allow pets. Grand Avenue and the neighborhood corridors are especially pleasant for combining a walk with a stop.

Browse the list below to find St. Paul's dog-friendly happy hours. With the city's walkable streets and abundant parks, a leashed pup makes an easy companion for a relaxed afternoon out.
