Dog-Friendly Restaurants in Tours

A French bistro on the iconic Place Plumereau in the half-timbered Vieux-Tours, serving carefully selected local products with house-made craft beer. The square-side terrace is the place to be on summer evenings, with leashed dogs welcomed and water bowls offered on request.

A long-established bistro near the train station, named in homage to the Maigret novel by Georges Simenon, with traditional French cuisine - confit de canard, tartare, andouillette - at sensible prices. The small front terrace welcomes leashed dogs and the name alone signals the welcome.

A Gault&Millau-listed local cuisine bistro in a small Vieux-Tours street, with seasonal Loire Valley dishes and a sharp focus on natural local wines. Small but well-shaded outdoor seating welcomes leashed dogs; the kitchen team brings water without being asked, a sign of the easy welcome.
