FInd restaurants that allow dogs in Yarmouth, ma

Looking for dog-friendly restaurants in Yarmouth, ma?  We can help you find the best pet-friendly places to eat with your dog on your cape cod vacation.

sadly There aren’t a lot restaurants where you can bring a dog in Yarmouth. You’re limited to a brewpub and ice cream. While we prefer the cape cod creamery’s homemade ice cream flavors over those of Dairy Queen, the DQ drive through adds a layer of convenience that’s helpful for both dog owners and parents of whiny children. 

And if whiny children are part of your vacation, treat yourself first to a few rounds at sea dog brew pub. after all, it’s supposed to be your vacation too!
