Dog-Friendly Restaurants in Marbella

An all-day café near Playa del Duque that has built its reputation around a dedicated dog menu, with options like organic lamb pots and home-baked dog cookies. The shaded outdoor terrace has water bowls on every table and a low planter buffer between diners that gives nervous dogs space. Brunch, sharing plates and a respectable coffee programme make it a reliable two-hour stop on a walk along the Senda Litoral.

A modern eco-conscious restaurant on the Benabolá side of Puerto Banús, with a leafy terrace screened from the marina hubbub by living plant walls. The kitchen leans Mediterranean-healthy (plant-forward bowls, grilled fish, raw plates) and the terrace welcomes leashed dogs without a supplement. A favourite mid-afternoon stop for owners coming off the Senda Litoral coastal walk.

A beachfront restaurant on Playa del Alicate east of the centre, with a wide wooden terrace directly on the sand and a more formal indoor dining room behind it. Leashed dogs are welcomed on the terrace (and even on the sand alongside the deck) with water bowls. Modern Spanish cooking, a strong shellfish list and a steady local clientele who arrive with their dogs after a Senda Litoral walk.
