Starred chic: Guillou Campagne
It has never been a secret: dogs have always been more than welcome at Katell Guillou’s place in Schouweiler, and they still are. The owner has always had a soft spot for our four-legged friends and pampers them as best she can by offering them some starry canine treats...
Guillou Campagne: 17-19, rue de la Résistance (Schouweiler), T. 37 00 08
Seeing and being seen: the Brasserie Schuman
Why should only masters and mistresses have the right to play being prominent? Laurence Frank has always publicly declared her love for her dogs, both in her decor and in her concepts like the famous Chalet by Lili, which this year has become the Chalet Tiger & Tiffany. In short, if your dog is a star in the making, this is the place to be!
Brasserie Schuman: 1, rond-point Schuman, Luxembourg (Limpertsberg), T. 24 61 85 44
The friendliest place for your doggy: Café Villa
Beggen’s Café Villa says it all in its tagline: drinks, food & dogs. It's hard to make it any clearer! There's a menu for dogs, who can also enjoy blankets and toys: alcohol-free beers with chicken or beef snacks or a bone broth ice cream that - let's be honest - we're really jealous of... It is also possible, and even encouraged, to organise your best four-legged friend's birthday party on site. Unbeatable.
Café Villa: 195, rue de Beggen, Luxembourg, T. 691 116 381
Safe bet in town: Um Dierfgen
A must for aficionados of Luxembourg's terroir and good, generous dishes, the local restaurant run by Marc and his team just off the Grand-Rue takes care of dogs and their masters alike. Blankets, baskets: there's no way man's best friend won't feel at home!
Um Dierfgen: 6, côte d'Eich, Luxembourg (city centre), T. 22 61 41
Day and night in Dommeldange: Hostellerie du Grünewald
It is difficult, if not impossible, to have lunch or dinner at the Hostellerie du Grünewald without seeing the tip of the tail of one of our furry friends discreetly protruding from the table of an elegant bourgeois couple or a gourmand family... The place is known for enthusiastically welcoming dogs, both in the restaurant and in the comfortable rooms and studios.
Hostellerie du Grünewald: 10-14, route d'Echternach, Luxembourg (Dommeldange), T. 24 51 49 20
New in the Longwy area: the Oxalys
Not to be confused with its version without an apostrophe and with an "i" in Dudelange, the Oxalys restaurant is a new address in a region. A tasty and well-served cuisine, which displays frankness and sophistication, and a beautiful warm dining room which is well run by a contrasting female team... There is no lack of arguments. The icing on the cake: we really like the pooches, who are welcomed with kindness and attention.
Restaurant l'Oxalys: 72B, rue de Longwy, Lexy (France), T. +33 6 47 97 48 66
For a trip to the Moselle: the Koeppchen
What better way to combine wine shopping, a stroll along the Moselle and a good meal with your favourite doggie? The Koeppchen is not only one of the best addresses on the Luxembourg Moselle, but the team is also very friendly to our canine friends...
Koeppchen Bistro-Brasserie: 9, Berreggaass, Wormeldange-Haut, T. 76 00 46
For a joke: the Chalon de Thé
If you love your dog but want to challenge his patience, why not try a trip to , in the Gare district. Come on, it was just a joke.
Chalon de Thé: 5, rue Glesener, Luxembourg (Gare), T. 26 20 27 83
However, let's not forget that "one person's freedom ends where another person's begins", and some restaurant owners have told us that they have decided not to accept dogs indoors following behavioural problems and other incidents. So it's up to each individual to decide whether his or her dog is made for restaurant outings or whether he or she is better off at home...
