The Ultimate 2026 Guide to Dog-Friendly Cafés, Venues & Home Cafés in Singapore
Where to Dine, Chill, and Play With Your Dog Across the Island.
Singapore’s pet-friendly scene has grown up (in the best way) - more genuinely welcoming cafés, more thoughtful pet menus, and more neighbourhood “hidden gems” that feel like a small treat for both you and your dog.
This guide is built to help you plan an outing that actually goes smoothly: clear pet policies, what to order for paws + people, and how to book/check before you go — because nothing kills the vibe faster than turning up and realising the rules changed.
Before you go: the SG rule that affects almost every café
From 1 Jan 2025, F&B outlets that don’t serve pet food generally don’t need extra SFA approval to let pets dine with you at Outdoor Refreshment Areas (ORAs) — but pets still need to stay within the ORA and house rules still apply.
Two quick gotchas:
- Hawker centres are still a no for pets (including their ORAs).
- Halal-certified premises may still restrict pet dogs (even at ORAs).
So yes: more options now — but always double-check the café’s latest pet rules before you commit to the grab ride.
