Before You Go

What it’s actually like with a dog

Dogs allowed is only the start. When we haven’t verified something, we say so instead of filling the gap.

Dog policy: Well-behaved, leashed dogs are welcome inside. Keep pets on a 6-foot lead and clean up after them (per Spice Village).
Patio / outdoor details: Indoor marketplace of 40+ boutiques (entrance and parking on Franklin Ave.).
Water: Not yet verified
Shade: Not yet verified
Best time to visit: Mon–Sat 10 a.m.–6 p.m.; Sun 12–5 p.m.

Notes: Dog-friendly indoor shopping; leash required.

Dog policies, hours, and availability can change. Verify directly before visiting. In a Central Texas summer, skip hot pavement in the middle of the afternoon even if the listing looks good on paper.
