This place is so “dog gone” cute (pun intended)!
The food was excellent. We had an unusual chick pea salad sandwich which was delicious as well as a salad & tea. The space was clean & felt inviting as well as fun! Great people & great food!
Adorable little cafe with really good food! My husband and I stopped in after a hike around 1:30pm on a Saturday. There was no wait. Both people we interacted with were super friendly and helpful. We both ordered sandwiches (the Grandfather and the Club — both were super good!!) and side salads. I also got a blood orange lemonade which was absolutely delicious. I was very impressed with the salads as it did not taste like bagged salad, you could tell it was freshly prepared. After eating our salads, we each only ate half of our sandwich because they were plenty large. We wanted to save room for a treat — I got some key lime dessert (super good!) and my husband got a blueberry pancake muffin. Bonus is we now have leftover sandwiches for later. Highly recommend and we will definitely be back when we are in the area!!
I had the Monte Cristo this morning and it was amazing. For a community that doesn’t have food option the dog house is a fair priced and great option. Much better than the over priced food down the road. This family owned place is a jewel in the Foscoe community.
When you're starving for a Monte Cristo sandwich and they bring out ham and cheese with powdered sugar.
Staff working this morning were very friendly. Quiet and quaint little place to relax and enjoy a coffee or to grab something to eat. Haven’t tried the food, but definitely plan on going back for lunch to try some of their sandwiches. Had a mocha frappe with oat milk and an extra shot. Right on the money! Seating outside and inside so you have your choice of seating preferences (weather permitting). AND they gave me a doggie duck for my Jeep! The Dog House for the WIN!
We ordered the sausage, egg, and cheese biscuit. It was so good! Highly recommend (order before 11am though)
My fiancée and I stopped by while visiting recently, we both got peppermint mocha lattes and pickles. Both were very very good! Definitely recommend this spot and will be back to try a sandwich!
Everytime I go to Dog House, I am so delighted. The owners are so nice and friendly and always willing to accommodate my thoughts on new frappe combinations. The service is always incredibly fast (unless there is a typical lunch rush that happens at all restaurants). Definitely a worth while stop on your way through Foscoe!
