-
Are dogs allowed?
The Flora-Bama is a place where we encourage people of all walks of life to gather together, enjoy live music, food, drinks and create lasting memories with friends while making some new friendships along the way. This has historically included our furry friends as well, as the Flora-Bama loves animals and knows that many of our awesome patrons are pet owners (as are our owners!). Upon considering a tremendous amount of factors over a lengthy and difficult process, we have unfortunately decided to no longer allow dogs at the Flora-Bama, Flora-Bama Yacht Club, and Flora-Bama Ole River Grill moving forward. We have come to this decision with the ultimate intent of providing the safest, cleanest, and most positive atmosphere for our patrons to enjoy while on property. We truly appreciate your business and will continue to do our absolute best to create an environment for our customers that translates into lasting and enjoyable memories. Please be patient with us during this transition, as this was a very tough, but necessary choice. We look forward to seeing everyone this season and will miss our K-9 pals!
