Dining and More in Dallas/Fort Worth

Since we live only 4 hours away from the Dallas Fort Worth, we have visited the area multiple times. Recently, we attended a concert at Globe Life Field, which is the home of the Texas Rangers Major League Baseball team.

We’ve also attended a Texas Rangers baseball game at the field.

And as we’ve traveled to Fredericksburg, Waco, and Houston we’ve passed through the DFW area. We’ve compiled a short list of our favorite places to dine. Most of these offer dog-friendly patio seating!

Cane Rosso has wood-fired pizza and a fenced in dog friendly patio at their Lakewood location. It’s right near a shopping center area but there is plenty of parking.

For breakfast/brunch, we thoroughly enjoyed Bread Winner’s Cafe & Bakery. We started with some drinks and fresh-baked bread on their lovely little patio. There are two locations in the Dallas metropolis.

On another sunny weekend, we visited Whistle Britches for a savory brunch on their outdoor patio area. I thought the Whistle Britches bloody mary’s along with the Chicken Benny were outstanding!

We’ve also been to Toyota Stadium in Frisco, Texas for a concert festival. Prior to enjoying the festivities, we had brunch at Mash’d. It gets very busy so get there early! We sat at the bar and enjoyed bloody mary’s along with a delicious brunch.

On our recent trip to Fort Worth, we had brunch on the patio at Woodshed Smokehouse. It’s a great option for furry-friends too because they have a “pup menu” and a large patio with some covered seating. And, I especially loved the food – the cheddar biscuits with brisket gravy was soooo good!

Another afternoon late lunch stop in Fort Worth was at Lucile’s Stateside Bistro. They are known for their lobster and seafood dishes. We enjoyed dining al fresco on their quaint little outdoor patio area. To start, we had lobster bites. Then, we ordered the bacon cheeseburger and the reuben. Both were excellent!

You can’t come through the great state of Texas without a stop at Buc-ees. We always find some great snacks and gifts in their large store. And, they have the best green space for dogs (even little waste bags in dispensers). Our pups always like walking around their well-kept grass area. Then we fill-up the gas tank and head back home!

If you’re looking for a place to stay, there are plenty of hotels in the DFW metroplex. We opt for VRBO since we have our pups, but there are so many options in this big city!
