Château Le Woof
$ · Budget·Off-leash permitted
America's first dog cafe, combining a coffee shop, bar and pet market with a 700 sq ft indoor, climate-controlled dog play area where pups can socialize while owners eat and drink. Dogs are welcome off-leash on the pet side, with a dog bar serving craft beer and wine for humans alongside a full cafe menu.
Why it made the list
A one-of-a-kind indoor cafe where your dog can legally run free while you sip espresso or craft beer right beside the play area.
Good to know before you go
The official site confirms 'Dogs are allowed on the Dog Play area side' with an off-leash play area and dining tables, and customers may 'eat and drink, with their dog, on the pet side.' Dogs must be up to date on vaccinations and a play-area release form must be completed before visiting; customers are responsible for watching their own dogs.

House rules and verification
The pet policy above is summarised from the venue’s own published information and cross-checked against public listings. Last checked: against the source on . Policies change without notice anyway, so confirm the current one with the venue before you travel, and keep your dog leashed anywhere that is not a signed off-leash area. Read the full disclaimer.
The city's first dog run, opened in 1990 and still its largest — a big fenced dirt run in the middle of Tompkins Square where dogs exercise unleashed through the day. Regulars treat it as a club with its own mailing list.
A taproom on the water at Domino Park, where the East River and the Manhattan skyline do the decorating. Leashed dogs are welcome inside the room and out on the patio, and food comes from outside — Roberta's is next door.
A Midtown hotel with an unusually open pet policy: no fee, no deposit, no weight cap and no limit on how many pets come with you. Bowls go to the room, beds come on request, and the concierge keeps a list of nearby dog-friendly parks and restaurants.
