Looking for the perfect place to hangout with your friends and family where your dog can tag along as well?

St. Petersburg, Florida is one of the friendliest pet cities in the state! Here are three options near Camden Central and Camden Pier District, where you can bring your best friend with you for a drink! All locations listed require all dogs are up to date on their rabies shots.

The Dog Bar

First on our list is located off Central Ave, just minutes away from Camden Central! They host a variety of events weekly, such as bingo, Latin-themed nights, and much more.

The Dog Bar is the perfect spot to plan special events for your dog. Are you looking for a space to celebrate your dog’s birthday? Surprise! You can make a reservation and have a dog celebration so you and your friends and can bring their dogs as well.

The Dog Bar has space for an off-leash park and have a full-service bar.

Mutts and Martinis

Much like The Dog Bar, this location is near Camden Central off Central Ave! It has an attached store and a pool area for your pups!

There are two separate areas where dogs are allowed off-leash and ready to run wild! But if you're enjoying your beverage at the bar, all pets must be kept on a leash.

This fun location also has themed dog breed drinks, such as Puffy Poodle (my personal favorite), Dorky Yorky, and much more! They also offer menu items for your dog, such as a dog burger, pup cup, and different-flavored yogurts.

Attached to the bar is a store where you can purchase a variety of treats, toys, and attires for your dog.

Nikko's Dog and Sports Bar

Last but certainly not least is Nikko's Dog and Sports Bar, located just a short distance from Camden Pier District. Nikko's combines the best of both worlds, sports and pets. Whether you're catching the latest game on one of their many TVs or just hanging out with friends, your dog can enjoy the relaxed atmosphere by your side. Nikko's features a designated dog-friendly patio where your pup can chill while you grab a bite or enjoy a cold one. They also offer water bowls so your dog can stay hydrated while you kick back and relax.

The staff is friendly, and the atmosphere is welcoming for both dogs and their owners. Be sure to bring your dog's leash and enjoy a drink while watching the game or chatting with fellow dog lovers!
