Looking for pet-friendly restaurants on Hilton Head Island? Here are the top places eat with your beloved pup.
People are often surprised when we tell them that dogs are allowed on the beaches of Hilton Head. Dogs are allowed all the time with the exception from Memorial Day to Labor Day from 10am-5pm (when it is just too hot, we don’t want them to have heat strokes). It is really in the dogs’ best interest.
If you can’t stand to be without your furry friend when eating out, you are in luck. Due to our fantastic weather in Hilton Head and Bluffton, SC, we have several restaurants with outdoor seating.

If you are looking for “off leash” dog parks, we have a couple of great options on Hilton Head and Bluffton. In Hilton Head, go to the Chaplin Community Park. The great thing about this park is that you are very close to the beach so after your puppy dog releases all their energy running around, you can take a leisurely walk on our beautiful beach. Go to this link for more information about the Hilton Head dog park.
If you are staying in Bluffton, you and your dog will enjoy the newly completed dog park at Oscar Frazier Park. Check out their facebook page.

Hilton Head and Bluffton are very dog-friendly communities so if you are visiting or thinking about moving here, please know that your furry friends are welcome most everywhere! At Herman & Davis Properties, we are always happy to meet new fur parents. Stop by our office anytime for information on HHI Living and pick up a few doggo biscuits for your fur baby!
