Additionally, Animal Alliance will have a handful of adoptable dogs on-site for those looking to give a furry companion a fur-ever home this holiday season.

Stella, named after owner Sherri Daugherty’s one-eared rescue pit bull, has an ongoing partnership with Animal Alliance. Every guest that dines at the restaurant receives information for an adoptable dog in their check presenters in the hopes of re-homing animals in the New Hope-Lambertville area. Additionally, all proceeds from Stella’s pup menu are donated to the non-profit.
