Getti-Up in Garberville is the kind of place where you can grab a solid burger made with local beef while your dog hangs out beside you on the patio. The menu goes beyond burgers—they do good coffee and big salads if that’s more your thing—but honestly, most people are there for the beef. The outdoor seating area faces the street with room for dogs to settle in while you eat, and the staff brings water without you having to ask.

Garberville sits right in Humboldt County’s wine country, and Getti-Up works well as a lunch stop if you’re exploring the area. After eating, you can walk your dog around the downtown area or head toward some of the nearby trails if you’ve got time. The vibe is casual and genuinely welcoming to dogs—the staff doesn’t make you feel rushed or like you’re imposing by bringing yours along.

The outdoor setup is where dogs do well here. You’re not fighting through a crowded indoor space, and your dog has a clear view of what’s happening on the street, which most dogs prefer to being isolated outside alone. It’s the kind of place where you might end up chatting with other dog owners sitting nearby, which happens naturally when you’re all eating outside together.

The portions are generous, so come hungry. If you’re road-tripping through the North Coast wine region, this hits the mark for a casual meal where you don’t have to arrange a dog sitter or leave your dog in the car. The quality of the meat matters here, and you can taste it. It’s worth stopping for if you’re passing through town anyway, and the outdoor dining setup means your dog gets to be part of the experience rather than waiting somewhere else.
