Looking for the perfect place to enjoy a delicious meal or refreshing beverage with your furry friend by your side? Mercy Tavern in Salem has you covered! Their outdoor patio offers shady, umbrella-covered tables where you and your pup can relax and unwind. The vibe is laid-back, and the food and drinks are top-notch, so it’s no surprise this spot is a favorite hangout for locals. In fact, many of the local dogs have their own “VIP” section right outside the kitchen entrance, hoping to get a little bacon from the kitchen staff. And guess what? They often get it!

The best part? The incredibly pet-friendly host, Erin Survilas, is eager to greet all the pups and offer them a tasty treat. Local dogs often look in the window to see if Erin’s working while on their daily walks, but be warned—she’s got a bit of a reputation for wanting to keep all the dogs for herself!

Why You and Your Dog Will Love It:

  • Relaxing outdoor patio with umbrella-covered tables for shade.
  • Great food and cocktails, perfect for you while your dog enjoys the scene.
  • A popular hangout for locals, so it’s always buzzing with positive energy.
  • Dog-crazy staff who love to spoil their four-legged customers.

If you’re looking for a great spot to grab a bite, sip on a cocktail, and hang out with your four-legged friend, Mercy Tavern is the place to be. The locals love it, and the dogs do too!
