Dog friendly breweries Salt Lake City

There’s something about beers and dogs that just seems to go well together. Fortunately Salt Lake City’s growing craft brewing scene agrees and several breweries have dog friendly patios!

TF Brewing | 936 S 300 W, Salt Lake City, UT | Website

Templin Family Brewing, more commonly known as TF Brewing or just “TF” to the locals, is one of Salt Lake’s newest breweries. Established in 2018, TF Brewing is known for their wildly popular German style beers and upon opening immediately began welcoming dogs on their large, enclosed patio. TF Brewing loves dogs so much they even produced a “Dogs of TF Brewing” calendar for 2020! Their outdoor space features stylish bench tables, adirondack chairs, corn hole, and four fire pits for chillier days. While TF does not serve food on its own accord, you can count on there almost always being a food truck on site!

Uinta Brewing | 1722 S Fremont Dr, Salt Lake City, UT | Website

As the largest brewer in Utah, it’s only right that Uinta Brewing loves dogs. They’ve long been supporters of many dog initiatives and the Humane Society of Utah. Located just west of Salt Lake City, their Brewhouse Pub has a moderately sized, fenced patio that is dog friendly. Uinta not only offers their amazing beer selection, but also a full menu of delicious food provided by Nomad Eatery. If sustainability is your thing, you can also feel good knowing this brewery is 100% earth powered.

Wasatch Brewing | 2110 Highland Dr, Salt Lake City, UT | Website

Wasatch is another arm of the Salt Lake Brewing Company. Established in 1986, Wasatch touts themselves as the first brewery in Utah.

Roosters Brewing | 2325 B Ave, Ogden, UT | Website

Roosters Brewing holds the title for first dog friendly brewery in the northern Salt Lake metro area. Although Roosters has multiple locations, only the B Street patio is dog friendly. These guys have long been dog advocates and led the charge with the Weber County Health Department to add a dog variance to their ordinances. Their fenced patio features picnic tables with umbrellas for shade. Note that this location is registered as a bar and is thus only for patrons who are 21+.

Mountain West Cider | 425 N 400 W, Salt Lake City, UT | Website

We’re totally counting Mountain West Cider’s amazing local cidery as part of this list! Their hard ciders feature only ingredients from the mountain west region, making this a true local brew.

Shades Brewing | 154 West Utopia Ave, South Salt Lake, UT | Website

Shades Brewing self describes as “unorthodox.” Expect unique ingredients in their IPA and Belgian style beers. They even have a line of hard seltzers if that’s more your thing! Their shaded patio with faux turf is perfect to enjoy a pint with your pup.

Level Crossing Brewing prides themselves on being a place for community connections to form over locally brewed pints. Their woodfired pizzas pair perfectly with their flavorful craft beers.

Fisher Brewing | 320 W 800 S, Salt Lake City, UT | Website

Perhaps the most well-known brewery in the Granary District, Fisher Brewing has developed a loyal following in Salt Lake. Known for their consistently rotating taps, fun merchandise, and community focused approach, Fisher is also friendly to the pups. While their patio is not exceedingly large, it is dog friendly and offers shade in the summer and heat in the winter. With the majority of seating being picnic tables it is likely you will share with another party so be sure your dog is equipped to handle that. Stick your head inside the front door to let them know you have your pup with you and they will come let you in the side gate!

Squatters | Downtown, 147 Broadway, Salt Lake City, UT | Website

Squatters is one brewery that is certainly synonymous with Salt Lake City. Their downtown location opened in 1989 and has been brewing some of Utah’s most popular beers since then!

Proper Burger | 865 S Main St, Salt Lake City, UT | Website
Stratford Proper | 1588 Stratford Ave S, Salt Lake City, UT | Website

Proper Brewing is a well known name in the Salt Lake City area with multiple restaurants to their namesake. While the actual brew pub is not dog friendly, you and your dog can enjoy Proper beers at two of their Salt Lake patios- Proper Burger and Stratford Proper. Both patios are on the smaller side and do not have a significant amount of shade so plan your visit around temperature and peak vs non peak times. Proper Burger has recently expanded their back patio to a fully shaded, two story outdoor paradise but it has not been approved as dog friendly quite yet!
