B.O.T.H. Eatery

B.O.T.H. Eatery sits inside Tuen Mun Town Plaza Phase 1 (tmtplaza), Shops 3227–3228 on Level 3, above the Watsons on the 3/F podium. Several OpenRice reviewers say the unit is easy to miss — it is set back from the main atrium corridor and only signposted in green-and-wood “backyard” lettering. The FEHD permit means dogs are allowed across the indoor dining area; the venue does not run a separate dog section, but managers have let small-to-medium dogs sit at the sofa tables and even the main dining tables without issue.

• Booking required? Reservation recommended at peak (weekends, dinner); not strictly required on weekday lunches.
• Booking channel: OpenRice online booking (link on the venue page); phone (5626 8534) for group / special requests.
• Lead time: dinner weekends fill 3–5 days out; weekday lunch usually walk-in-friendly.
• Walk-ins accepted: yes — a couple of recent reviewers note being seated without booking on weekday afternoons.
• Seating rule: 90 minutes during busy periods (per OpenRice “Additional Information”); staff have been known not to enforce when there is no waitlist.
• The vibe: staff are used to families with prams and small dogs; sofa seating is the easy move with a dog because the tables are wide and the floor is vinyl.

• Minimum charge: none reported by any reviewer. OpenRice price band is $101–200 per head.
• Per-dog charge: none reported.
• Pet menu / treats: no dedicated dog menu and no on-the-house treats have been documented.
• Payment methods (per OpenRice): Visa, Mastercard, AlipayHK, Alipay, Cash, Apple Pay, Google Pay.
• Service charge: 10% applies; spot payment supported.
• Reservations require a small booking deposit during OpenRice “Special” windows (the booking widget shows $483 for the “Modern American-Style Dinner Set Menu for 2” Sun–Thu set menu).

There is no dedicated pet section — B.O.T.H. is a mall café that operates under the FEHD permit, so dogs are allowed across the indoor seating area subject to house rules. The “garden / backyard of the house” interior has wide sofa tables, wooden chairs, and decorative greenery; reviewers consistently describe it as spacious, with enough floor space for a small or medium dog under the table.

• Indoor or outdoor? Indoor-only dining. (There is no advertised outdoor terrace or street-side seating; mall atrium circulation is shared.)
• Distance from non-dog tables: zero — seating is open. Pick a sofa corner on a quieter weekday if your dog is reactive.
• Relief area on-site: none inside the mall restaurant. Tuen Mun Town Plaza has its own pet-friendly mall layout with relief points; otherwise step out to the podium for the nearest park (see Nearby).
• Off-leash permitted? No. Treat the venue as on-leash throughout.

• Water bowl: not reported by any reviewer; bring your own portable bowl.
• Pet mat / pee pad: not reported — bring your own.
• Pet treats on the house: not reported.
• Pet menu: not reported.
• Pet stroller parking: the sofa corner tables are wide enough to fold a stroller alongside.
• Pet-friendly toilet: no — use the mall’s regular washrooms on Level 3 (no dedicated pet toilet).

By MTR, the restaurant is a 5-minute walk from Tuen Mun Station Exit B (Light Rail interchange via the MTR Tuen Mun Line). From Exit B, head up to the tmtplaza podium and take the lift to Level 3; B.O.T.H. sits above Watsons on the 3/F.

• Light Rail: Tuen Mun Stop (505 / 507 / 614P / 615 / 615P) drops you at the same podium — about a 3-minute walk inside the mall.
• Bus: Tuen Mun Town Plaza bus terminus is on-site; KMB 60M, 63X, 66M, 67M and cross-harbour routes stop nearby.
• Step-free entry: yes — mall has lifts and escalators throughout; B.O.T.H. itself is on a single mall level (no internal steps).
• Lift required: yes — to reach Level 3 from the Light Rail / bus terminus, take the mall lift bank by Phase 1.
• Parking: tmtplaza car park (Phase 1) is the closest public car park; first 2 hours often free with mall spending.
• MTR walk time: ~5 min from Tuen Mun Station Exit B via the mall.

The law, per the FEHD scheme baseline (Cap 167D + Dog-Friendly Food Premises Permit conditions):

• Leash length ≤ 1.5 m (FEHD baseline; staff in mall cafés have been known to relax this for small, calm dogs).
• No dogs on dining tables or bar seats (FEHD rule, observed at B.O.T.H.).
• 1.5 m exclusion from open buffets and salad bars (not applicable — B.O.T.H. is à la carte only).
• Dogs on Dangerous Dog Regulation (Cap 167D) breeds are excluded by law; staff almost never know the rule by name, they will just say “no big dogs.”
• AFCD e-licence via iAM Smart should be carried — operators can ask.

What reviewers actually report on the ground:

• Staff welcome small and medium dogs at the sofa tables without being asked; reviewers haven’t reported any size cap in the public record.
• No formal “X dogs per booking” cap has been reported.
• The 90-minute seating rule is only enforced during busy periods — weekday visits are usually unrushed.
• A handful of reviewers have flagged that the air-conditioning is uneven in summer (mushroom soup arrived lukewarm for one reviewer in June 2026), so summer afternoons can feel stuffy on the inner sofa rows; ask for a table near the mall atrium if your dog is heat-sensitive.

1. Reserve through OpenRice for weekend dinners — the widget shows live slots through 20:45.
2. Aim for the sofa tables if your dog is medium-sized — the floor space is generous and the chairs are wide.
3. Carry your AFCD e-licence (iAM Smart) — staff can ask.
4. Bring your own water bowl and mat — amenities at the venue are not reported.
5. Order the black truffle fries + mayo as a starter for the table — most-ordered item on OpenRice.
6. Try the smoked pork ribs for the table if you’re 3–4 people; reviewers consistently flag them as the standout.
7. Avoid the inner sofa rows on very hot days — AC is uneven in summer; the perimeter tables catch the mall atrium breeze.
8. Do not feed your dog from the venue’s tableware — FEHD rule, observed.
9. Do not bring a “Dangerous Dog” breed (Cap 167D) — the FEHD permit doesn’t override the parent ordinance.

• Tuen Mun Town Plaza Phase 1 (the mall itself) — B.O.T.H. sits inside tmtplaza Phase 1; the mall has its own pet-friendly layout and is a useful indoor relief loop when it’s too hot outside.
• Tuen Mun Park — about a 10-min walk west from tmtplaza Phase 1, with a pet-friendly section, paved relief area, and water taps. The most convenient outdoor relief stop after a meal at B.O.T.H.
