Huisdiervriendelijke restaurants in Genua

A craft-beer pub in a vaulted caruggio of the UNESCO old town, with outdoor seating in the alley and a relaxed local crowd. Dogs on lead are welcomed inside and outside, with a water bowl produced on request. The kitchen runs Ligurian small plates, anchovies, focaccia, farinata, alongside local craft beers and natural wines.

A seafront restaurant in the postcard fishing village of Boccadasse, with a terrace facing the pebble cove and the pastel houses tumbling down to the water. Dogs on lead are welcomed on the terrace year-round; the menu is Ligurian seafood, fritto misto, trofie al pesto, fresh anchovies, and is served until late in summer.

A small contemporary trattoria in the Maddalena district near Via Garibaldi, focused on a short, daily-changing tasting menu built from Ligurian markets. Dogs on lead are accepted at all tables (terrace and inside) when made known at booking. The setting is intimate, twenty covers, and works best for quiet, well-behaved dogs.
