With a mix of casual and upscale options, Roe Seafood is perfect for a relaxed lunch or a sunset dinner with your four-legged companion by your side.

Ubuntu

Situated right next to Colorado Lagoon, Ubuntu is an ideal post-photoshoot stop because this is right next to where I take my clients for their Long Beach photo session. 

This charming café serves plant-based dishes with a focus on fresh, locally sourced ingredients. Their spacious outdoor seating area is perfect for dog owners looking to enjoy a healthy meal while their pup lounges in the shade.

Schooner Or Later

A Long Beach staple, Schooner or Later is a beloved waterfront eatery known for its generous portions and casual marina views. The dog-friendly patio offers a scenic spot to enjoy their famous "Schooner Omelet" or classic Eggs Benedict while watching the boats go by. Pups can relax by your feet as you sip on a mimosa or one of their signature schooner-sized beers. This is a great spot for a leisurely breakfast or brunch with your furry best friend.
