Boho Manor’s patio wraps around the building with a mix of covered and open sections, so you can sit under heat lamps on a cool evening or let your dog stretch out in the sun. The restaurant sits right on River Boulevard with views toward the Russian River, and the outdoor setup feels genuinely separate from the indoor dining space—no sense of dogs being an afterthought. The menu leans California casual: salads, sandwiches, wood-fired pizzas, and seasonal specials. On a visit with my dog on a mild afternoon, the staff brought water without prompting and didn’t make us feel rushed, which matters when you’re eating outdoors and your dog is doing the same (well, different food).

Dogs stay on the patio and can’t enter the indoor restaurant, which is standard for Sonoma County. There’s no separate dog menu, but owners often share bits of their meals—the grilled vegetables and plain proteins work fine for that. The patio is large enough that even when the restaurant is moderately busy, your dog has room to settle without being in the thick of foot traffic. Leashes are required.

Monte Rio is a quiet spot on the river about 15 minutes north of Guerneville, so Boho Manor draws a mix of locals and weekend visitors. The covered sections of the patio have heat, which extends the usable season into cooler months. Parking is on-site and easy. Hours run from lunch through dinner most days, though it’s worth checking their website for seasonal closures. The neighborhood is residential and low-key, not the kind of place where your dog will be stressed by crowds or noise. If you’re spending time in this part of Sonoma County, the river views and straightforward food make it a reliable stop—just come expecting casual dining rather than fine service.
