Restaurants and Cafes
Gabriola is an island of great restaurant and cafe but dogs are not permitted in any food establishments as per the British Columbia Public Health Act - Food Premises Regulation (see our Laws webpage for more details)
While restaurant operators may be dog-people and would choose to welcome dogs if allowed, ignoring these provincial laws puts their businesses at risk for enforcement by a health officer that may result in penalties.
As a compromise, some restaurants may welcome dogs to be secured in areas that are close to their patio areas, but not actually within the patio areas.
