Restaurants in Dennis that allow dogs:
The Pheasant
905 Main Street, Dennis
(508) 385-2133
The Pheasant allows dogs at their outdoor tables, which are first-come, first-served. The menu uses local ingredients and is one of the few scratch kitchens in the area.
“Well behaved babies and four-legged fur babies welcome!” says their website. Which is true, no one wants to eat next to a jerk dog. So if your dog can’t keep it together with some class then stick with Dairy Queen takeout instead.
but if you’re looking for an upscale menu from a scratch kitchen paired with an amazing wine selection, the pheasant is a meal you’ll remember.

Sesuit Harbor Cafe
357 Sesuit Neck Rd, Dennis, MA 02638
(508) 385-6134
The sesuit harbor cafe in dennis has a great outdoor seating area that allows dogs at picnic tables overlooking the waterfront. Plus if the tide is low there’s a short beach walk you can take after your meal alongside the dining area.
the parking lot is a bit confusing as it is shared with a marina and can be extremely busy in the summer season at peak times.
but it’s worth the madness for the sesuit harbor cafe’s food. Exceptionally crispy fried seafood on often-sticky tables in a great outdoor setting overlooking the water.

Yuck.
But usually one or two national seashore beaches stays open to pets, often the left side of herring cove beach. check the national seashore site’s pets page for updates on that. There are pet-friendly dining options nearby all of the national seashore beaches if you’re making the road trip from Chatham.
