1820 Memorial Ave SWWe love this stop for families or those traveling with their pups! Sit outside on the patio and let the kiddos run around in the large yard as you wait for dinner. Your dogs can catch a drink with their provided dog bowls. Added bonus, the Roanoke Greenway is just across the parking lot. Pair dinner or lunch with a walk on the greenway— parks with playgrounds are just a few minute walk in both directions!
