August Book Club

August Book Club Pick: Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus

Love a good book and an even better drink? Same here. Each month, Barksiders pick a new book, then meet up to sip, chat, and let the dogs run free while we dive into conversation. The goal is to finish the book beforehand - but no pressure. It’s all about relaxed vibes, friendly discussion, and good company (both human and canine). Light prompts will be available to guide the convo, and drinks are always encouraged. The book of the month is announced at the start of each month, and anyone’s welcome - no sign-up needed!

New to Barkside? Before your visit, create a profile for your dog at www.barksidedogbar.com and upload their vaccine records. Dogs must be at least six months old, and those over a year must be spayed or neutered. Rabies, DHLPP/Da2PP, and Bordetella vaccines are required. Humans must also sign a Guest Waiver, available on our website.

What is Barkside? A dog park and bar in one, Barkside is where dogs run free, and humans relax with a drink. With indoor and outdoor off-leash areas, it's the perfect spot to socialize - on two legs or four. Stop by for a day or become a member for regular visits.

No dog? No problem! Dog lovers are always welcome.
