Dogs are a big part of the family, right? We like to include them in as many family activities as we can – going to the park and maybe even dining out. (Yep, we’ve got some dog-friendly restaurants in Missouri.) Bark Yard in Missouri combines the best of both worlds – a dog park for the furries and a bar with good eats for their humans – and it’s definitely worth a visit. It might even become your (and your dog’s!) new favorite hangout spot.
During these uncertain times, please keep safety in mind and consider adding destinations to your bucket list to visit at a later date.
Treat your pooch to a few hours of fun while you indulge in a delicious drink and a bite to eat at Bark Yard in Springfield, a one-of-a-kind destination the whole family will love.
Don’t have a dog? No worries. Bark Yard welcomes all dog lovers to grab a bite, sip a cold drink, and watch the pooches play.
Bark Yard boasts a few dog-friendly features – a dog park, doggy daycare, and boarding. Or you can grab a table on the dog-friendly bar patio for a bite to eat for both you and your pup.
Bark Yard’s menu features an assortment of appetizers and shareables – chicken tenders, bacon cheese waffle fries, and pickle chips, for example.
If you like chips, dig into a helping of the house fried chips. Eat ’em plain or with one of several dips, like the white cheese queso.
Or how about a charcuterie board or a veggie & hummus board? Don’t worry – Bark Yard hasn’t forgotten the pups. Gourmet dog snacks and treats are also on the menu.
While the food might be the highlight of the visit for the humans, the dogs will go absolutely bananas at the dog park.
They’ll have plenty of room to run and play with the other dogs. You can just kick back and relax on one of the chairs on the sidelines.
Be sure to familiarize with the dog park rules before heading over. Here are the Off-Leash Park Rules.
