About this list
Hilton Head Island is a dog-friendly island, and plenty of dog friendly restaurants on Hilton Head let your pet join you outside. The rule of thumb is outdoor seating only: patios, decks and beer gardens, never the dining room.
These are the restaurants and breweries that welcome dogs on their patios, based on their own pages and reviews. Policies can change, so it is always worth a call before you bring your dog, especially on a busy night.
