In that case, head on over to the Grain Craft Bar and Kitchen, known as one of the most dog-friendly restaurants in Newark! This eatery has a patio that is open year-round due to being able to change the temperature of the inner area. You and Fido can hang out and enjoy one another's company while you fill up your tummy. This restaurant is located at 270 East Main Street for your convenience. Not too ruff!36
