The Bark Bar

Absolutely fantastic spot. Well done to the park architects, you produced a truly impressive public space. The bark bar and dog park is just pure happiness.

We love this place because it’s beautiful. The kids play at the nest and we can walk over to the Bark Bar to get a beverage. They had really revived the downtown Cary area to be a magical place for everyone. There are lots of nonalcoholic beverages also available.

Our two Boys Gizmo and Bernie love The Bark Park. Very well maintained. Water is provided in the Spring and Summer. Lots of obstacles they can climb on and through. Great release for them to come and play.

Really cool dog park in the recently developed Downtown Cary Park. It costs $5 for a day pass and you are emailed a barcode to scan yourself into the park/open the door. The bar (not in the dog park technically) has beer, cider, and wine options—the line can get super long, so I would stop there first before entering the dog park. The dog park itself is clean, has man made hills and tunnels, and plenty of seating. Can’t wait to be back!

An amazing place to grab a drink and let your dog run around. Highly recommend visiting this place as the grounds are extremely well kept, the atmosphere is lovely, and the drinks are great!
