5 pet-friendly eateries in Mumbai that your furry friend will love

Mumbai’s pet-owners and their furry buddies are in for a treat (pun-intended)! Gone are the days when a meal at a restaurant or café meant leaving your pet behind—today there’s a crop of eateries in the city that are more than happy to host your four-legged friends. From a bistro with a Parisian vibe to a terrace farm-to-table restaurant, your pet and you are going to have a hard time choosing. Bazaar India has made that decision easier for you by listing our favourites.

SeeSaw Café

A lush outdoor patio welcomes diners and their pets at the all-day SeeSaw Café in BKC’s Jio World Drive. Your fur babies are offered comfortable rugs and a bowl of water to make them feel right at home, along with an extensive pet menu. Choose from a variety of options—everything from bone broths, beans, and vegetables to fruit slushies and dog-friendly desserts are served at the café, which allows only dogs (cats will have to sit this one out). And if your pet has dietary restrictions or is particularly fussy, the chefs take special requests to adjust the taste and quantity of the dish. 
Where: Bandra Kurla Complex, Bandra East.

Woodside Inn

With outlets in Andheri, Bandra, and Colaba, Woodside Inn is known for its pub grub and laidback vibe. The latter makes it the perfect café to take your pet out for a satisfying lunch. And bonus, you can even carry your own pet food and feed them at the restaurant if your pooch is picky. Make sure to plan ahead though, the place only allows pets on weekdays till 6 pm. 
Where: 3/4, Dheeraj Pali Arcade, Dr Ambedkar Road, Pali Naka, Pali Hill, Bandra West. Plus outposts in Oshiwara and Colaba.

Soufflé S’il Vous Plaît

The chic French eatery that is a stone’s throw away from Marine Drive, this one allows pets to accompany their diners at the restaurant’s al fresco dining area—perfect for a post-walk meal. Your furry companions will love the outdoor area that is spacious and well-ventilated. While they munch on dishes from a customized menu, you can dig into French classics like camembert et truffle soufflé, quiche Lorraine, and soufflé au chocolat noir. Whatever you pick, a cosy time with your beloved pet is guaranteed.
