Dine in style with your dog at the Little River Inn. Overnight guests can reserve one of five cheerful blue dining cabanas tucked into a landscaped terrace garden beside the restaurant. Each private, tented space has ambient lighting and a heater to take the chill off the Mendocino Coast air. The walls can stay open for fresh air or zip closed for a quieter meal with pups who prefer a little privacy.
Dinner is delivered directly to your cabana from the inn’s restaurant, with the same menu served in the main dining room. Choices change seasonally but may include salads made with organic produce, fresh fish and seafood, steaks, pasta and the inn’s satisfying burger topped with bourbon bacon jam and muenster cheese. Consider adding the herbed truffle fries, then linger over a glass of California wine while your dog relaxes beside the table.
The cabanas are reserved for guests staying at Little River Inn, making dinner part of a full dog-friendly coastal getaway rather than simply a restaurant stop. The family-owned inn offers a range of designated pet-friendly accommodations, including ocean-view rooms, fireplace rooms and cottages, with no breed or size restrictions. Dogs receive welcome treats, food and water dishes, a pet towel and other useful amenities, and advance reservations are required for cabana dining.
