    Pups Pub is not only my pupper’s favorite spot, but it’s also mine! As a remote worker, it’s the perfect place to go to work while my dog gets to play and be with her friends. From the very first time we went, the staff has been nothing but welcoming from the pup patrollers to the bartenders. Both my dog and I feel so at home here and truly think this place is a blessing. 10/10 would reccomend going, dog or no dog—guaranteed fun time!

    One of my favorite places on earth. An indoor-outdoor bar with dogs. What more could anyone want?! Victoria is also my favorite bartender of all time. She never fails to come up with something fabulous. You don't have to have a pooch to come here, but I appreciate it if you do, there are few thing i like better than meeting new doggos!! The staff is on-point with taking things down a notch if any dog starts to get too amped up, and I feel perfectly safe bringing my dog here

    Best bar / dog park in the Tampa bay area! The bartenders are the sweetest. The staff pay attention to the pups to make sure play is always safe. Great drink deals. Could not recommend enough, whether you have a dog or not!

    One of my favorite things about Pups Pub is how much they listen to their customers! We had a not so great experience back in early January and as soon as it was brought up to the owner / GMs attention - they fixed it and made it right! My dog loved coming here for months and just had a great first visit back. 10/10 reccomend!

    Great atmosphere. Attention to the dogs was also good. The beer menu was solid and local. Didn't have a mixed drink, but the menu seemed interesting. If my dogs were better behaved, I'd bring them... Worth checking out.

    My pup was a little skeptical at first. She was very nervous with all the big dogs around her but everyone made her feel very welcome and was super nice! Then Bella got comfortable and she had a blast we ended up signing up that day! Can’t wait to come back!!

    The absolute best place to bring your dog!! The owners and dogs are all so friendly. Love the staff too. Drinks are cheap and they have fun tee shirts like this one! Oh & Monday’s members get half off their bar tab, so worth it!

    Super friendly and clean full liquor people and dog bar. Pool tables, shuffle board, golf game with ASTRO turf inside and outside puppy play areas. Owner and staff super friendly. Veteran owned business

    First timers! It was a blast and our English Bulldogs had a blast! Lots of other dogs were there and they all got along wonderfully! The dogs have a lot of space to roam about and have fun. Casey our bartender was amazing, welcoming, and friendly!

    We had the best time at Pups Pub. The service was excellent. I’m not sure who had the most fun, our dog or my family watching the playoff game. We met other dog lovers. Pups Pub was the perfect setting to begin our family weekend together. It’s definitely a must join!!!

    My dog LOVES this place! He thinks it's Disneyland. If your dog likes to play with other dogs, for to Pup's Pub! Great staff, great drinks. Well done! 🐾🐕

    Pretty awesome place to take your dog. There is plenty of televisions for you to watch and the dogs can run all over while you’re just having a beer and watching the game. I highly recommend it. It is very fun. I will be coming back.

    Boy do I want to give this place a 5. Such a cool venue. Staff were great. But there just seems to be some lax rules for aggressive dogs. A pit bull was present for my visit and immediately started stalking my dog, hovering over him… intimidating him. Anyone familiar with bullies.. knows what this means. It’s a behavior issue that clearly the owner hasn’t worked on. Since it was my pup’s first time here, I was by his side trying to reassure him but this pitty’s behavior made me uncomfortable. The pup troller - bless her heart because she was great - recognized this, grabbed the dog by the scruff and escorted it back to its owner. 10 minutes later we see the pitty running loose again and doing the same thing to my dog, again, the pup troller was there to escort the dog back - but as she grabs the pitty it lunges and attempts to nip my dog in the face. This is where you lost me - that dog shoulda been asked to leave right then and there. But nope, i was there about 60 minutes only for myself to shoo that pitty away again from my dog and watch the pup trollers escort the dog away 3 other times from different dogs. At no point was the pressure put on the owner to say hey maybe leash your dog as you watch football as it’s continually bullying other dogs and you don’t seem to care. Not sure if this is a bar policy but i didn’t enjoy myself because I was constantly on edge. I know that’s the purpose of the puptrollers but the repetitive nature of this was disheartening (and it can’t be expected that the workers devote 100% of their time watching one dog - you’d hope a responsible owner would step in). A rational person would be like… what are we doing here? I know it’s a matter of time before that dog hurts someone. I’d love to become a member but I can’t justify the risk after this experience.

    Our favorite dog-friendly bar in the entire area. We've been to all of the big name dog-friendly bars and this one is definitely our preferred. We have a pit bull husky mix and a German shepherd that love and are loved at Pup's Pub. We originally started at the Dog Bar, but after branching out we decided we preferred Pups Pub. Bought a year membership our first night here and never thought twice about it. The owner is always walking around and is very attentive to what is going on. Parking at PP is limited, so you'll likely have to park on the street and walk a little, but thats just business in Tampa.

    I love this place! Good drinks. Friendly staff who will get to know your dog by name. Lots of dogs to have a good play session with and tire my dog out. You can pay per day but its worth the membership.

    My first time here was pretty great thanks to Casey, who was an attentive bartender and super cool, fun to talk to and was taking care of everyone there without missing a beat. Alex was amazing and very welcoming, definitely coming back and bringing friends. Thanks for a fun night after working a 12 hour shift it was much needed. A go-to spot for sure with or without the pups but happy to see the doggo’s with other pup friends! Thanks again for all the good vibes!

    This place is great for both Dog Owners and Dog-less people alike. The staff of pup-patrollers are always super helpful and accommodating of the dogs. Plus, the bartenders make great drinks and are friendly. It's a great atmosphere for both dogs and humans alike!

    I am at Pup’s Pub for the first time ever ! Are you kidding me ? I can hang out with my dog, He can make friends, I can make friends ! Have a beer, watch sports, play my favorite tunes. My dog will go wild in a calm and lovable way. He will act like he was one of my kids, I was walking over to the ice cream truck. Come check it out , Casey is my bartender, she is from Connecticut and is awesome ! She is a great ambassador for such a dynamic venue !

    Honestly I probably will never go back. I love the concept until you see a dog going to the bathroom in the middle of the bar. Kinda grossed me out. I love my dog to death and I always want her with me; but I do feel like there should be a designated area for your dog to go to the bathroom. The smell in there was pretty awful, even with the fans and open doors/windows. :( I walked in and they told me I needed a membership. As much as I understand membership fees, it was my first time and u wanted to check out the place being new to the area. I had to pay for a $15 day pass. ( and if I may add there was no one in the bar when i went ) Finding out they had no food and only beer. This is my fault. I should have researched this place a bit more than to pay $15 to just leave after a cup of water. Just not my thing.

    This place is amazing!!!! You can hang out and relax at a bar while your dog have a blast and the great staff watch it for you. They also keep it very clean and celebrate holidays! It has everything a dog lover could expect at a pup bar

    Love this place. Great little hangout for you and your doggos. Staff and patrons are friendly and attentive and Victoria is one hell of a bartender. Highly recommend becoming a member and taking advantage of the great perks that come with it.

  • 5/5 kahlia S. 1 year ago on Google
    The owner is so incredibly kind and cares about the people that visit, the dogs and the staff. The amount of professionalism, kindness and compassion shown from the staff as well is astounding. The bartenders are accommodating and gracious as well as the manager Christy. I’m not surprised they have a near perfect 5 stars, it is well deserved.

    Perfect place to take your pup out, grab a beer and relax! Nice atmosphere, friendly bartenders and patrons.

  • 5/5 Angelica R. 1 year ago on Google
    My friend got a section for her doggy’s 1st birthday. They were absolutely fabulous with everything. When I say they were on top of everything! They were on top of everything! On the dogs. The cleaning, and overall the dogs safety and making sure everyone was having a good time. Prices were fair. Definitely will be back!

    I've traveled the world and Pups Pub is easily my favorite place I've ever been to, and I can't imagine anywhere else surpassing it. I don't have a dog myself, but I'm welcomed in to pet everyone else's wonderful dogs to my heart's content and have some drinks while I'm at it. Dogs roam freely and always seem to enjoy themselves, especially with the help of the incredibly caring staff, who keep behavior in check and the floors clean, while even taking the time to get to know all the dogs that come in. I'm extremely excited to check out the new Orlando location as well. If you love dogs I can't recommend Pups Pub enough.

    It’s our dogs favorite place to go! Best bar in Tampa to grab a drink, watch the game, and have fun with your pup and friends!
