Q: Is Dallyon dog-friendly?
A: Yes! Pets are welcome in the outdoor garden and walking areas. Just note that indoor seating may have restrictions depending on the day and number of guests.

Q: Is sledding really available?
A: Yep—but only if the weather’s right. On particularly cold days when the ground is frozen solid, they set up a small sledding area outdoors. It’s a fun surprise if you catch it!
