Northbrook's Lazy Dog Restaurant To Feature Special Offer For National Dog Day

NORTHBROOK, IL — National Dog Day is Aug. 26 and, true to its brand, the pup-friendly Lazy Dog Restaurant is offering some pet perks.

The Northbrook restaurant will give out a voucher for a free future dog bowl dinner for each dog bowl bought by a diner Aug. 26 through Aug. 31. They also plan to donate $1 from each onsite dog bowl sale to benefit Pet Partners, a nonprofit organization that helps connect people with therapy dogs.

Lazy Dog Restaurant also has participating locations in Naperville, Oak Brook, Vernon Hills and Buffalo Grove.

Diners can bring their dogs to the patio at any Lazy Dog restaurant to enjoy one of the eatery’s dog bowls onsite. Each bowl contains fresh veggies, meat and rice.

Lazy Dog Restaurants, a California-based restaurant company, opened its Northbrook location at 992 Willow Road last year.

The restaurants are designed with a "warm interior" and lodge-inspired furnishings like fireplaces, ledge stone, chandeliers crafted from Aspen logs and artwork "reminiscent of the Cowboy State," founder and CEO Chris Simms told Patch in 2023. A large outdoor patio was built around a cozy firepit for gatherings with friends and family.

"We have a long-standing tradition of hospitality in my family and have gathered the knowledge and traditions of three generations to create something we hope will be a special place for families and friends," Simms said. "We serve handcrafted American food and drink with seasonally inspired high-quality ingredients and make every meal by hand each day, including all of our sauces, marinades and dressings."
