But when your BF has four legs, logistics are a little more complex, especially with the summer heat. Almost all patios are pet friendly in Medicine Hat, so we recommend calling the eatery you'd like to dine to make sure. Here are a handful of recommendations below:

Hell's Basement Brewery

Hell's Basement Brewery are true dog lovers, with many of the staff bringing their furry friends with them to work. Hell's Basement has expanded their drink options for all tastes, and their patio is family-friendly. If beer isn't your thing, pick from the rotating list of seltzers, hard sodas or try the non-alcoholic Heck-of-a Root Beer!

‍LOCAL Public Eatery (boardwalk only)

This bustling eatery has a great outdoor setup in the heart of downtown Medicine Hat.  With a great menu and even better beverage selection, serving all of our city's brewery and distillery options, you won't be disappointed. Dogs are welcome on the boardwalk of the patio, which is set up only during the summer months.

‍Medicine Hat Brewing Company

Find a dish on their full menu and enjoy the 'out-of-town' feeling of this rustic patio, with a selection of 23 timeless craft beers on tap to choose from. This brewery is on the outskirts of town, so if you're just stopping through for a quick bite to eat (and to fill your growlers), you and your furry friend don't have to venture too far off the trail. Especially handy if you're hauling a camper.

Silver Buckle Sports Bar

With a brand new kitchen and revamped menu, the Silver Buckle is a popular local hangout with a dog-friendly patio and frequently has live music. Check their socials to see their most recent events.

‍

Station Coffee Company

The perfect place to stop for a coffee and enjoy the sunshine on the patio. Located downtown, it's a great stop while doing some shopping, sightseeing or enjoying nearby city parks. There is also delicious food (light meals) and treats (often GF options available).

‍

‍Swirls Ice Cream

If you're looking to satisfy your sweet tooth, Swirls is a must-visit. This Medicine Hat staple is the perfect pitstop for you and your pup to grab a cone. Their offerings are never-ending and even include vegan ice cream options.

‍

‍Travois Ale Works

Medicine Hat's newest brewery and latest patio addition. Sit in the sunshine and sip on a brew or kombucha downtown on 3rd Street. Travois Ale Works routinely features new brew creations, like their immediately famous Purple Haze and newly featured food menu.
