The glorious Chicago time for sitting outside and basking in the sun while we chow down is nearly upon us. In case you’re a Northsider like me, you might not know about these pet-friendly patios I just heard about – and they all do happy hours! So take a look and make a book for your next outing – on your own, with friends, and with you pet… IF, that is, your dog is calm and controlled and okay with being surrounded by people!

Pretty Pippin’s Patio welcomes you and your well-behaved pup

Pippin’s Tavern –  39 E. Chicago Ave. Known for carrying the legacy of good beer and good cheer since 1974, Pippin’s Tavern, 39 E.

River Shannon  – 425 W. Armitage. Established in 1946 and located in the heart of Lincoln Park, River Shannon is a pet-friendly Irish Pub with an outdoor patio. They’ve been pouring Irish whiskeys and local beer for over 70 years in a  friendly atmosphere that welcomes dogs. One of the oldest pubs in Chicago. Happy Hour on the patio (and indoors!)

Charming in the sun Streeters Patio

Streeter’s Tavern  50 E. Chicago Ave. After a day of shopping on Chicago’s Magnificent Mile,  Streeter’s Tavern is a good place to toss back a few cold ones. Try their sprawling pet-friendly outdoor patio. Or if you like a less exposed venue, go on down into the bar and find games like pool, pong, giant Jenga, foosball, and darts.
