The Bulldog

A dog-friendly craft-beer tavern on Magazine Street in the Garden District, built around a huge tap list — 50-plus beers — and a patio whose fountain has become a genuine neighborhood landmark. Bring your dog; this is one of the most reliably four-legged-welcoming patios in the city, and the late-afternoon scene of dogs and their humans is half the appeal. Order whatever local is pouring — a NOLA Blonde, a Parish Canebrake, an Urban South Holy Roller — and settle in by the fountain. Weekends get busy; the patio is where you want to be.
