Are there many dog-friendly cafes in your city?
Los Angeles has a reputation for being
one of the best places you and your pooch can call home (or visit). There’s
lots you and your dog can do together in L.A., like visiting one of its
dog-friendly beaches, going for a hikein the “Hollywoof Hills” or dining at one of the
city’s wet-nose welcoming restaurants or bars.
It’s no surprise then that L.A. is also home to
several dog-friendly coffee shops that serve both hot or cold coffee bliss that
are perfect for enjoying all year long.
1. Intelligentsia Coffee – 1331 Abbot Kinney Blvd., Venice 310-399-1233
With three locations in Venice, Silver Lakeand Pasadena that are each only a few blocks away from a
dog-friendly park, Intelligentsia has prime locations close to where you and
your pooch will already be walking. With blends like El Gallo, which features
hints of silky milk chocolate; a tart Honey Badger espresso; and a premium
Santuario Geishi blend that combines jasmine, orange and black currant flavors,
Intelligentsia is serving up more than just your everyday cup of joe.
Dogs are allowed outside at each of its three
locations, where Intelligentsia’s internationally recognized baristas will
brew you a made-to-order cup of coffee or hand-craft you a spectacular espresso
drink. Intelligentsia even has its own iPhone app that allows you to view their current, in-season
brews. Hours vary by location, so be sure to check their app before you go.
