Dog-Friendly Patio in Healdsburg

Good coffee, great pastries, and a shaded spot for the best pups.

Welcome to Our Dog-Friendly Patio

At Costeaux French Bakery, we believe the best mornings start with fresh coffee, flaky pastry,
and your four-legged family member stretched out at your feet. Our shaded patio in downtown
Healdsburg is designed for exactly that — a relaxed, welcoming space where humans sip and snack
while pups people-watch and soak up the Wine Country air.

From golden retrievers in bandanas to tiny terriers curled under café tables, we’ve seen it all
— and we love it. On busy weekends, our patio buzzes with the sound of clinking coffee cups,
laughter from friends catching up, and the occasional excited tail thump against a chair leg.

What to Expect When You Bring Your Dog

  • Shaded seating so your pup can stay cool while you linger over brunch.
  • Water bowls available for thirsty dogs after a stroll around the plaza.
  • Plenty of people-watching from our place on Healdsburg Avenue.
  • Friendly staff who are just as likely to greet your dog as they are to greet you.

We ask that dogs stay leashed and under control, and that you keep them close to your table so
everyone can enjoy their visit. If your pup is nervous around crowds, we recommend visiting
earlier in the morning or on weekdays when the pace is a little slower.

Perfect Pairings: Coffee, Pastries, and Pups

Whether you’re starting a day of wine tasting or simply treating yourself, our patio is the ideal
first stop. Enjoy a cappuccino with one of our classic French pastries, a slice of Cinnamon Walnut
Bread turned into Pain Perdu, or a leisurely brunch plate while your dog snoozes nearby.

Our guests often tell us that the combination of fresh-baked aromas, warm hospitality, and
dog-friendly charm makes them feel like they’ve stumbled into a little neighborhood café in Europe
— right in the heart of Sonoma County.

Share Your #CosteauxPup Moments

We love seeing photos of your dogs enjoying our patio. If you post on social media, be sure to
tag @CosteauxFrenchBakery and use #DogFriendly and #Healdsburg so we can admire your
four-legged companion and, with your permission, share those moments with our community.

From National Dog Day celebrations to everyday visits, your pup is part of the extended Costeaux
family — and our patio is their second living room.

Planning Your Visit

Our dog-friendly patio is open during regular café hours, weather permitting. On busy weekends,
we recommend arriving a bit earlier to secure a patio table. Once you’re settled, take your time:
sip slowly, savor every bite, and enjoy the simple pleasure of being out with your dog in one of
the most charming corners of Healdsburg.

We can’t wait to welcome you — and your pup — to Costeaux French Bakery.
