On Saturday, I took a drive to Warwick, N.Y., to go apple picking. After visiting Applwood Orchards and Winery, I stopped to browse some of the shops and antiques stores in town. Looking for a place to grab a quick lunch, I stopped at the Fetch Bar & Grill at 48 Main St. in Warwick. Unfortunately, having just opened, the proprietor informed me that the restaurant was not open for lunch and is only serving dinner temporarily.
As an animal lover, the canine-themed concept of this eatery was so appealing, that I plan on dining there soon. I just wanted to let fellow dog owners know what it's all about. This isn't the only location, either. There is another Fetch Bar & Grill at 1649 Third Ave. in New York City.
So what makes this restaurant so unique? Not only does it offer an appealing menu offering a varied menu American comfort foods, Fetch Bar & Grill has a mission --to support dog rescue efforts. Both restaurants' walls are adorned with hundreds of photos of their customer's furry friends, with more added daily, plus colorful prints of various dog breeds.
One table along a wall of the Warwick restaurant's is dubbed the "Dog House." Twenty percent of the patrons' tab at that table is donated to animal rescue efforts. Both locations hold weekly Sunday Brunch adoption events (for dogs and cats). In Manhattan, the restaurant has an Animal Haven and Canine Rescue Adopt a Dog Wall.
Here is a video featuring the original Fetch Bar & Grill in Manhattan. Do homeless dogs a favor and check this place out.
Love what they are doing at Fetch Bar & Grill! I hope this is something that catches on in more restaurants! Love the "Dog House." Any time I can eat for a cause makes me feel less guilty about over indulging in delicious food!
