"When you pull up to The Local, you might spot a pug chilling on its owner’s chest or even hanging out on a bar stool on the patio. Maybe this would annoy someone without a dog of their own, but if you’re reading this guide, you get it. While your dog gets comfortable, order that smoked drums and flats that made our best lemon pepper wings guide. They go nicely with crispy tater tots and a Pabst, IPA, cider, or stout from their lengthy beer list." - jacinta howard, nina reeder, juli horsford
