Little River Inn’s pup-friendly dining cabanas are a fetching option for guests. Make a dinner reservation for one of five tented hideaways, each equipped with ambient lighting and heaters that warm the salty sea air. You’ll order off the same menu of fresh California flavors served in the main restaurant.
The doggie dining cabanas (reservations required) are exclusively available to guests staying at Little River Inn. Pretty landscaping and twinkling lights surround the cheery blue structures, which occupy prime real estate in a sunken terrace garden. Tented walls can be kept open for fresh air and socializing or zipped shut if dogs prefer a more secluded space. Most cabanas seat four people and two pups, while a larger one accommodates up to six people and three pets.
Four-legged diners can relax with their families as the culinary team delivers food and drinks directly to each table. The inn’s menus spotlight local operators like Mendocino Tea Co. and several California wineries. Brunch covers all the bases: Think oatmeal, huevos rancheros and Swedish hotcakes with maple syrup. Mimosas and Ole’s Famous Bloody Mary headline the weekday menu, as do treats like non-alcoholic rosé, orange juice and Ghirardelli hot chocolate. Sunday brunch offers expanded cocktail options.
Dinner presents seasonal salads with organic produce, fresh fish and seafood, steaks, and pasta dishes. Bourbon bacon jam and muenster cheese top the Little River Inn’s hearty burger, and the herbed truffle fries are worth the upgrade. Families who prefer a private dinner experience can order room service and dine on their patio, as the sea rolls under starry skies. Check out the hotel’s add-on menu to order fresh fudge, cocktail kits and other special deliveries.
