Is Carmel and Costarino dog friendly?
Carmel is a very dog friendly city and beach. Costarino's owner has a Husky and so knows all the best coffee shops, restaurants
and galleries. Costarino has the following dog facilities:
- dogloo, water bowel and auto-licker in fenced dog run alongside south side of house
- pooper scoopers and complimentary plastic poop bags
- food and water bowls with kitchen dog meal mat and floor rug
- large comfy dog pillows in the great room, dining area and master bedroom
- complimentary mint doggy biscuits
Where can't
I take my well behaved dog in Carmel?
Here's a short list where dogs are welcome or must remain outside:
- Restaurants that do not have an outside patio or covered rear patio (most do - please ask if unsure). Click here for the list of all dog friendly eateries in Carmel at DogFriendly.com. PortoBella is a favorite of my Husky for its iced water and doggy chicken plate.
- Coffee Houses - by far the best where all dog owners congregate with a six table patio is at Caffé Cardinale Coffee Roasting Company. Carmel Valley Coffee Roasting and Carmel Bakery & Coffee (all on Ocean Avenue) have dog watering bowls outside for the pooches. Arawan Thai Café further down Ocean Avenue, just behind the candy store near PortoBella, has a full sized patio and great Thai iced teas to go.
- Galleries - just ask before you enter. I've been allowed in all of them. When I visit the glass galleries, I leave my Husky outside where I can see him.
- Delicatessens - I prefer 5th Avenue Deli next to the post office. Plenty of hitching posts and all within earshot. Bruno's Market & Deli has a great selection as well.
- Carmel Post Office - please leave your dog outside. The rear entrance has a nice post near a tree to hitch your dog.
- Carmel Library - please tie you dog up outside on the dog wall.
- Dussendorf Park (at the top of Ocean Avenue) is a dog-free zone for humans
