*A new owner (So nice and really cares about the dogs!) has bought this location in the past few months and has really made improvements to the outside yard. The entire yard is now turf (Underneath the turf is a filtration system so each night they spray it down/clean it off from use that day) with plenty of seating for the dog owners.
*There is one flat screen TV on the side of the building and one very, very large screen TV that was amazing to watch the NCAA games on the weekend we were in town.
*They have four or so plastic doggie pools for the dogs to jump/play in and cool off.
*They keep multiple water bowls filled along the side of the building.
*There are poop bags provided and it's expected for everyone to pick up after their dogs when they go.
*There's a big basket of tennis balls for the dogs to play with. *The one house rule is don't bring out dog treats/long lasting chew bones because this can start "territorial" fights between the dogs.
*The dogs are free to roam between inside and outside as they wish and go upstairs too. Leave their leashes on the "coat hanger" by the door if you want.
*Amazingggg food and drinks. We went to separate days and loved everything we tried.
*You will want to download the Bark Bar app before you go, create a profile, and upload your dog's proof of vaccinations. If you are just going to be in town for a day/weekend, it is more than worth stopping. The owner suggests buying the dog pass the day off. We met so many locals who love the Bark Bar so much that they have monthly and annual passes!
*It is free to enter for those who don't have dogs - MelissaNov 12, 2023Great dog park!
stopped while road tripping after finding bark bar on Fido - was not disappointed. Super friendly staff, adorable vibe & great drinks/food. Tons of tennis balls, seating & activities for dogs and owners! We had a great time!!!
- MarinaSep 30, 2023Great place
Traveling and needed a place to spend a few hours with my dog in the middle of the hot day. The Bark Bar was amazing and I wish we had one in my city. Staff is super friendly and helpful and the dogs were all very well behaved. Tables are tall so no dogs helping themselves to my food or drink. Appear to be several regulars, giving the place a very community feel. Definitely recommend!
- ZachApr 27, 2023Great Vibe
Stumbled across this spot on a cross country road trip. Was driving all day to make a "bark in the park" ballgame at the Arkansas Travelers stadium only to have it get rained out right as I pulled into down.
Found Bark Bark Bar online, filled out their form in two minutes, bought an affordable day pass when I showed up, and my pup and I had a great night hanging out with all the people and dogs.
Well designed indoor/outdoor area.
Good beers and dog treats available.
Can be a little challenging to mix a dog park with people working/socializing (AKA inevitably people won't be able to keep as close an eye on their dogs if they bring their laptop) but everyone appeared to make an honest effort to monitor their dogs and the staff had a really good energy focused on making sure all the dogs and people had a good time.
Friendly staff and friendly canines - if I lived in Little Rock I'd buy an annual membership tomorrow. - KellyDec 22, 2022What a treat!
An oasis for dogs! Great spot for a beer and for our pup to socialize and have some fun. Service was outstanding.
- StacieMay 19, 2022#1 spot in Little Rock
Charlie and I go there 3-4 times a week and always have a blast. Such a great place with great people and great drinks.
- MollyNov 28, 2021So much fun and great beer!
Who doesn’t love seeing their dog play and socialize with other dogs?? Well add drink beer and eating great snacks to that! My husband and I stopped here on our drive cross country, this was a great place to let our golden retriever run and play for an hour!! Highly recommend checking this place out!
- KaylaSep 7, 2021Too much fun!!!!
My girls loved it here. They met new dogs and eat yummy dog's dog. Thank you!!!
- PamelaJul 2, 2020Loved it!
We were just passing through on a road trip and brought our English Bulldog since it has an indoor area. She loved it and ran around everywhere. The staff and patrons were all very cautious about covid. We got beers and hung out for maybe and 1.5 hours. We got great tips from a patron of other dog spots.
- NatalieDec 4, 2019Best Bar In Little Rock!
Bark Bar is my favorite place to hang out in Little Rock. They always have fun specials and events (check out their website/Facebook for current events). They recently updated their menu to include new drinks and food! Always my favorite place to spend any holiday with my pup! Make sure to bring your shot records, spay/neuter info, and flu shot info for your pup. You do have to pay per dog to get in (humans get in for free), but totally worth it! We purchased the year pass because we go so much! Highly recommend!
- CrystalSep 15, 2019Best bar in town!
We love Bark Bar! The workers care about your dog and will come up to you to ask how they are doing. The food and drinks are great and you can watch your dog have all the fun. It's $7 for a dog day pass but if you're from the area, it's worth it to get the membership. Make sure to have your dogs shot record with you or else they won't let them in.
- AndreaAug 29, 2019Best Idea Ever!
We were driving from the gulf in TX to central IL and this was such an awesome stop for us! Perfect atmosphere to let our little girl run and burn some energy and we were able to get a bite to eat that was delish! This is a great find! Wish we had one at home! 🐾❤️
- AutumnMay 16, 2019We love Bark Bar!
My pup and I visit Bark Bar once a week and we have a great time every time!
- CindyJan 28, 2019Our dog loves it! We love it!
This is our dogs favorite place to play. She is able to run, play fetch, and play with other dogs. The "Bark Ranger" keeps the dogs in check and makes sure they are not too aggressive or getting into trouble. The "Bark Ranger" and the owner make efforts to get to know your dog and pay them special attention. You can sit back, relax, have a drink all while you dog is playing and having fun. Great place to meet with friends and just hang out.
- JenJan 27, 2019Great atmosphere!
If you're a dog lover this is definitely the place to be! The atmosphere is great, the staff is amazing and the dogs are incredible! Our boys love making new friends and so do we! Give it a shot, you wont be sorry!
- KathrynJan 27, 2019We love this place!
We love the bark bar. It’s a great place to relax as a human and have a drink with friends or grab some food & bring your best friend to run around. The best thing is b/c it’s indoor/outdoor and they have done an amazing job with the outside landscape we always know we can bring the dogs if it’s been raining for a few days and they are miserable from being stuck inside! It’s seriously a life saver. We are actually headed there today b/c our buddy is having his dog’s 3rd birthday at the bark bar!! See ya soon!
- SarahJan 27, 2019Dog Heaven
This place is heaven for your pup and the perfect atmosphere for dog owners to chill! Bark Ranger Tori is phenomenal and always remembers the dogs. Staff is always helpful and branching out with cool new ideas. I wish there was a Bark Bar in every city!
- LauraJan 26, 2019The Best Location To Take Your Pup
Bark bar is a totally unique and fun experience for humans and their dogs. My dog absolutely loves it here!
- VickiJan 26, 2019Greatest Place For your Dog
For once I feel like I took my dog to Disney World! She had the best time and we really relaxed and enjoyed our local craft beers and some chips and queso! NOTE: a good reason to bring your dog records for a place like this!
- PamelaJan 26, 2019Our Happy Place
We love this place. My dog plays hard with her dog friends while I have fun with my human friends. The staff is warm and friendly. The food and drinks are lovely. Events, such as Karaoke, Paint Your Pet, Mardi Paws, etc. allow you and your pet the time and space to further bond. I can’t say enough good about the BarkBar!
- LaurenJan 26, 2019We visit every time we are in LR
Good beer, fun location. our dog loves it
- BenJan 26, 2019Perfect place for you and your dog to have a good time
Bark bar is a perfect mix between indoor/outdoor dog park and bar. They have treats for you and your pet, as well as many beers and craft cocktails. The staff is super friendly and really get to know you and your dog(s). They also do many different holiday themed parties including a huge tennis ball drop for New Years as well as pictures of your pet with Santa.
- ElizabethSep 28, 2018Off Leash Dog Park and Bar/Restaurant
Doggies can run off leash while a "Bark Ranger" oversees the indoor/outdoor play area. A full bar, wine, specialty "cockertails" and eight beers on tap. Your "barktender" can mix up your favorites. Food for humans and dogs! Buy your dog the Spaniel Sundae. Try the Red Rocket hot dog or the Dog Banh Mi!
