Dog-Friendly

A farm brewery and distillery set in rolling Rondout Valley fields, where the beer is made with ingredients grown close to home. Bring a blanket, grab a pint and some farm food, and let the afternoon stretch out with mountain views. Dogs on a leash are part of the scene on the outdoor grounds.

A family-run cider taproom where dogs are part of the scene. Pull up with a flight of house ciders and something from the kitchen while your pup settles in at your feet. Good after a walk on the nearby Hudson Valley Rail Trail.

A grown-up summer camp in Midtown Kingston, with a café, a mercantile stocked with picnic snacks, a pool table studio, and a bar pouring New York cider, beer and natural wine. Pinball, karaoke and movie nights fill the canteen, and the whole place feels like a cozy clubhouse. It is a sweet stop before or after a walk with your pup, and it sits right down the block from Keegan Ales.

Kingston's longtime brewery in a mural-covered brick building, with resident dogs of its own and a patio full of visiting ones. Grab a pint of something local and let the pups say hello. A relaxed, neighborly hang between Midtown and Uptown.

A nano brewery in an old Midtown transmission shop, all white brick and garage doors, with picnic tables wrapped around the building under big shade sails. The kolsch and schwarzbier are the ones to order, and the sourdough pizza and fresh oysters are some of the best in town. An easy, sunny afternoon with your dog stretched out under the table.

Foraged-apple ciders and meads in a roomy taproom by the creek, with a shaded patio where leashed dogs can join you. Order a flight and a snack and stretch out the afternoon. An easy pairing with a stroll through the village.

This brewpub gave new life to a historic bottling plant in Cairo, and it now pours house beers alongside burgers and pub plates. Wednesday burger nights and Sunday appetizer deals keep locals coming back. Dogs can join you inside the taproom or out on the patio, and there is even a Beer Dogs menu.

A village brewpub in the Taconic hills with a patio and wraparound deck made for lingering. Bring your dog, order a house beer and something to eat, and watch Hillsdale go by. Pair it with a visit to Little Apple Cidery up the road.

A friendly small brewery at the foot of the Gunks that has been pouring for over a decade. It makes a natural last stop after a hike at Minnewaska, with outdoor tables where your dog is welcome to join. Cozy fireplace inside once the nights turn cold.

Housed in an old mechanic's garage, Subversive floor-malts New York grain on site and brews beer with real local character. The kitchen turns out smash burgers, pretzels with beer cheese and frites, and the calendar stays full with trivia, live music and movie nights. Leashed pups can settle in outside or in the heated tent when the air turns crisp.

Part coffee bar, part craft beer café, this Main Street spot moves easily from morning espresso to an evening pint from a list of more than a hundred beers and ciders. All-day breakfast and hearty sandwiches round things out. The big outdoor patio is where you and your dog will want to be.
