BarkHaven Dog Bar is redefining what it means to “go out” with your pup. This Ivanhoe Village gem combines an off-leash dog park and restaurant/bar, and it’s quickly become a go-to social hub for dog lovers and their furry best friends.

With a mission to create a safe, fun, and social environment for both pets and people, BarkHaven blends a relaxed, dog-friendly vibe with great food and drinks, and engaging community events. Whether you’re sipping a local craft beer, catching up with friends, or letting your pup burn off some zoomies in the spacious play yard, this is one place where everyone feels welcome. The park features turf-covered play areas, pup pools, and more. Day passes, monthly memberships, and annual options are available—and first-time visitors can grab a day pass online or at the door. All dogs must be vaccinated and spayed/neutered for safety. BarkHaven even offers grooming services. If you’re dining in, don’t forget to check out the dog menu!

Community partnerships are one of the values at BarkHaven. They frequently partner with Ivanhoe Village Main Street promotions, local pet rescues, pet-focused vendors, host breed meetups and more.

Don’t have your pup in tow? Swing by to try an item off the eclectic and fun food menu, and/or a tasty beverage, relax and dog-watch.

Bring your furry bestie, enjoy something tasty, and hang out—because wagging tails make everything more pawsome!
