The Hudson Valley’s First Dog Park and Bar Is Opening in Rockland County

Will this be the new hotspot for dog owners in the Hudson Valley?

What is Bark 'N Brews?

Back in 2019 Bark 'n Brews was created in Garnerville, New York. The concept was to bring together their "deep love for dogs and decades of food and beverage experience into one unique, tail-wagging concept."

Essentially, it's the most dog friendly bar you've ever been to where dogs run off leash while the humans get to kickback with a drink or something to eat.

They tested their idea within the community and learned "that there is such a thing as the perfect place for pups and their people to hang out together."

However, shortly after they opened they had to put everything on pause due to COVID. According to the Bark 'N Brews website this has been a dream project, and now they're getting ready to relaunch Bark 'N Brews in 2025.

Bark N Brew is part of the Paw Pals family in Rockland County, they're a one stop shop for everything todays dog owner may need. They offer dog training, daycare walking, grooming, boarding and pet sitting.
