The Best Pet-Friendly Cafes And Restaurants In Singapore
Stephanie Zheng
Former Contributor | Urban List Singapore
If you’ve ever planned brunch around your dog’s nap schedule or abandoned a perfectly good cafe because the words “no pets allowed” were uttered, this one’s for you. While Singapore is still firmly an outdoor-seating-for-dogs-only kind of city, there’s a growing list of hotels and restaurants that are genuinely pet-friendly, not just technically tolerant.
We’re talking places where water bowls appear unprompted, staff don’t flinch at fur under the table, and customers mostly tolerant, if not pet owners themselves. From all-access spots to park-side favourites perfect for post-walk refuelling, here’s where to eat, drink, and loiter with your four-legged plus-one.

From 1 June 2026, Raffles Courtyard is officially going pet-friendly, giving diners the chance to soak up the breezy alfresco atmosphere of the famous Raffles Hotel Singapore—with their furry companions in tow. Tucked within the hotel’s lush courtyard space, the venue combines the heritage charm with a relaxed open-air setting that’s particularly well suited for long lunches, sunset drinks, and easy weekend hangs.
Alongside this update comes a new refreshed menu spotlighting reimagined takes of local and regional comfort foods, as well as Peranakan dishes created in collaboration with Grace Kee of Good Graces. Highlights include the laksa risotto with charred octopus and the butterfly blue pea nasi lemak served with crispy soft-shell crab. Raffles Courtyard is also offering weekly specials like Grill Nights, Wine Wednesday, extended happy hours, and daily set lunches. This way, guests (and their little buddies) have even more reason to linger.

Good Boy George

Robertson Quay’s newest pet-friendly bistro, Good Boy George, is the passion project of Weixang Tan, musician, educator, and senior associate music director of the Jazz Association in Singapore. He and his wife, Merlin, who live in the area with their daughter and dog, have always dreamed of opening a place that blended their love of art, culture, and community not to mention good food, good drinks, and a very good boy named George.
Drawing inspiration from the laid-back yet vibrant café scenes of Europe and Australia, Good Boy George serves up impeccable coffee and delicious, unfussy meals. Think avocado toast, spaghetti bolognaise and grilled cheese.
Because the venue caters as much to the early-risers as it does the day-drinkers and the night owls, Good Boy George turns to Bad Boy George as day turns to night with house pour wines, draft beer and even a cheeky Aperol Spritz for only $10.
