The Paw Bar & Eatery

$$ · ModerateLeashed only

A dog-focused bar and eatery in Parnell with a dedicated dog drinks menu including dog beer and bone broth, free dog cookies at happy hour, and canine-themed cocktails for humans. Dogs are welcome inside and in the courtyard, and it hosts a weekly quiz night.

Why it made the list

Auckland's most dog-centric dining venue: the dog can sit with you inside or out and gets its own menu.

Good to know before you go

The venue's own site presents it as Auckland's dog-friendly bar and eatery, welcoming dogs inside and in the courtyard with a dedicated dog menu and free dog cookies during happy hour, at times that vary between sources. It opens daily from midday until late per listings, and exact hours vary, so confirm. Dogs stay leashed.

House rules and verification

The pet policy above is summarised from the venue’s own published information and cross-checked against public listings. Policies change without notice anyway, so confirm the current one with the venue before you travel, and keep your dog leashed anywhere that is not a signed off-leash area. Read the full disclaimer.
