1. Fenton Winery & Brewery
This winery and brewery is a multi-use area, functioning as a genuine brewery, a restaurant, an event space, and a large outdoor area. In fact, it’s one of Michigan’s largest licensed outdoor spaces at over an acre, so the outdoor areas are also partially serviced by the wait staff. That means plenty of space to sit and enjoy the outdoors, weather permitting, with your dog, with a menu full of pizzas, charcuterie, sandwiches, and more.
2. Tonia's Victorian Rose
Tonia’s Victorian Rose is a specialty location in Rochester that describes itself as “Michigan’s Original Tearoom.” Although they specialize in events, such as baby showers, weddings, and rehearsal dinners, the location also doubles as a general restaurant, with a variety of food options available. Reservations are required on Saturdays and recommended on other days. Plus, you can make sure you get a seat at the outdoor table, which is dog-friendly.
