It’s a garden party and your four-legged canines are invited, too.

Café Botanica, located inside the Tucson Botanical Gardens is offering a new menu for you and your dog from 7:30 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. until Sunday, September 30.

The menu was crafted and inspired by the culinary traditions of the Sonoran desert and the high-desert of northern New Mexico.

In order to dine at Café Botanica, you must pay the Tucson Botanical Gardens’ admission or be a current member.

If your dog’s itching to get out of the house and try their special menu, you can bring your pooch in for $3 a day and $10 for any additional dog.

Daily admission is $15 for adults, $8 for children, and anyone under three years old is free. Members can also get in for free.
