If you’re looking to grab some grub and want to bring your chow-hound along, look no further than the heart of Maplewood! Visit Maplewood Grille, which brings together traditional American cuisine and modern Colombian fare. This restaurant is open seven days a week, and there’s a patio where your dog can dine alongside you. He’ll need to be on a leash, though. Want Italian instead? Head to Roman Gourme, which serves delicious pizza, pasta, and more! Your dog can eat with you on the patio. He’ll need to be on his best behavior. Bone Appetit!
