Jake's Palm Springs

When a restaurant is named after the owners’ beloved Westie, there’s no doubt that your furry friend will be more than welcome to join you at the dinner table. A contemporary favorite for dining in the Uptown district, Jake’s Palm Springs offers casual American fare, including fresh sandwiches and salads, for two-legged guests and water bowls and biscuits for four-legged companions.

Spencer's Restaurant

Tucked against the towering red mountainside of the San Jacintos, Spencer’s Restaurant offers an intimate dining experience for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Considering that the restaurant draws its name from the owner’s late Siberian husky, it’s no wonder Fido is welcome to join you on the romantic patio.

Water bowls are provided.

Cheeky's Palm Springs

Whether you’re human or canine, it’s hard to resist the allure of a brunch joint that serves a 5-piece bacon flight.
