PUG CAFE IS COMING TO SOUTHAMPTON 🌸🪩
Calling all Pugs! Get ready for another awesome Pug social as POP+BARK brings Pug Cafe to the Slug and Lettuce in Southampton for a Garden Disco themed event.
Expect a room packed full of Pugs, curly tails, squishy faces and plenty of opportunities for your dog to make new friends during a safe, secure off-lead play session.
Your Pug can enjoy our famous Pupuccino Cart, free dog treats, toys, balls to chase, and of course our much-loved Bubble Bash, while owners relax and soak up the atmosphere with fellow Pug lovers. With our Garden Disco theme, expect a doggy dancefloor, glowsticks, disco balls and all those extra pawty vibes!
As seen on Dragons' Den, POP+BARK's breed-specific dog socials have become some of the UK's most loved dog events.
🎟️ Tickets are expected to sell quickly, so we always recommend booking early to avoid missing out.
