Craig,
Sadly, I did not see any barbecue grills in the place. Most of the
patrons are dogwalkers.
I recommend ready-to-eat unless someone wants to bring a Weber or
something. There'll be plenty of Westies so heating food should not be
an issue.
Could not get ahold of anyone in the City regarding the restroom
issue. At worst it is a very short drive to the Lakeshore shopping
center across on Sloat Blvd.
