FRENCHIE CAFE IS BACK IN LONDON 😈👻
POP+BARK is officially back in London – and oh my gourd, we’re going BIG for Halloween. 🦇
On Sunday 25th October, we’re taking over The Refinery Bankside for one HUGE Frenchie Halloween pawty. Think bat ears, chunky little bodies, hilarious faces, pumpkins everywhere and enough French Bulldog mischief to keep the whole room entertained.
Tricks? Absolutely. Treats? You bet.
Expect our iconic Pupuccino Bar, epic Pumpkin Patch, photo booth, heaps of off-lead fun and one VERY special surprise guest waiting in the wings...
Fawns, pieds, brindles, creams, youngsters, golden oldies and every gorgeous Frenchie in between – the whole gang is invited. Get those costumes ready, because a room full of French Bulldogs dressed for Halloween is something everybody deserves to witness at least once.
🎟️ London Frenchie people, this one’s yours. Grab your tickets before they disappear!
THE BEST HALLOWEEN EVENT, EVER.
👻 Join one of London’s biggest Frenchie Halloween gatherings. 80 minutes, one HUGE venue and a room full of bat-eared besties ready to mingle, play and generally make themselves the centre of attention. Frenchie people – your plans are sorted.
📸 Halloween camera roll incoming. We’re dressing The Refinery for the occasion with an epic Pumpkin Patch, spooky props, brilliant photo set-ups, treats and surprises throughout. Bring your Frenchie’s best angles – we know there are several.
🍹 We’re taking over The Refinery Bankside, with a huge indoor bar giving the Frenchies plenty of space to roam off-lead. Order a cocktail, grab something delicious from the menu and watch the room steadily fill with those unmistakable little faces.
🧁 Obviously, the Pupuccino Bar is coming too. Pup cups loaded with tasty toppings, biscuit treats and goodies await – alongside piles of Halloween stuffies, balls and toys for anyone more interested in playing than snacking. Questionable, but apparently those dogs exist.
🛍️ Fancy spoiling them even further? Our hand-picked shopping stall will be packed with dog accessories and goodies ready for a little Halloween treat-yourself moment. As if your Frenchie needed another excuse.
🦇 Safe, secure and completely OFF-LEAD. Once you’re inside our dedicated event space, unclip and let them explore. They can sniff out new pals, race around, play, investigate absolutely everything or simply supervise proceedings from their chosen spot.
🧛 No Frenchie? You’re still invited. Our Dog Lover tickets are for anyone who’d happily spend 80 minutes surrounded by French Bulldogs. Bring a friend, grab a drink and enjoy an outrageous amount of Frenchie goodness in one place.
🕷️ And bring the family! Kids are very welcome, so dig out the costumes and make a proper Halloween day of it. Dogs dressed as monsters, children chasing bubbles and grown-ups enjoying cocktails – everybody wins.
HOSTED BY POP+BARK
You’ve seen us on BBC Dragons’ Den and Blue Peter. You’ve followed the chaos on social. Now it’s time to experience POP+BARK IRL.
With over 400,000 guests through our doors, we’re known for throwing BIG dog events where the dogs are always the main characters. Everything we do is designed around one very important question: will the dogs absolutely LOVE it?
Because happy Frenchies = happy humans. It’s really that simple.
Expect new friendships, hilarious Frenchie antics, endless photo opportunities and the kind of feel-good afternoon that puts a smile on your face long after you’ve left. Come experience it for yourself and head home with a very content Frenchie, brilliant memories and approximately no storage left on your phone.
There’s a reason the likes of Time Out and Secret London have called our events some of the happiest in the UK. Come see what all the fuss is about. ✨
HALLOWEEN, BUT MAKE IT FRENCHIE 🎃
POP+BARK loves a theme, and after two years away, you KNOW we’re not doing Halloween by halves.
We’re transforming the venue into a spooky-season playground with pumpkins on pumpkins, skeletons galore, ghosts ’n’ ghouls, creepy-cute props and an epic Pumpkin Patch ready for its close-up.
There’ll be Halloween toys ready to be chased, squeaked, snuffled and absolutely DESTROYED, spooky surprises around every corner and plenty of frightfully good photo moments along the way.
It’s officially spooky season – with bat ears, chunky chops and a whole lot more Frenchie. 🦇
DRESS TO DISTRESS 🎃
Halloween costumes are optional but very much encouraged.
Whether your Frenchie is serving tiny witch, bat-eared vampire, devil dog, pumpkin realness or something so outrageously extra it requires its own entrance music – we NEED to see it.
Those faces were practically made for fancy dress, so get involved too. Come twinning, dress up the kids or commit to a full family ensemble. Subtlety has no place here – go completely over the top and make it ICONIC.
COME MEET LOTS OF FRENCHIES
There’s just something about Frenchies meeting Frenchies.
From little pups finding their paws to distinguished Frenchie Oldies who’ve spent years perfecting the art of getting exactly what they want, every age is welcome to come, mingle and find their people... well, Frenchies.
Our events are a brilliant way to socialise your Frenchie in a safe, secure space where they can be completely OFF-LEAD. No pavement hellos. No tangled leads. Just the freedom to sniff, explore, play, make friends or happily wander around doing their own thing.
And trust us, they KNOW when they’re surrounded by their fellow Frenchies. Watching those bat ears prick up as they clock a whole room full of familiar faces and potential new pals never gets old.
Puppies, golden oldies, big ears, little ears, chunky chops and waggy bums – the whole Frenchie crew is welcome.
MAKE NEW HUMAN FRIENDS
The humans tend to find their tribe too.
Chat to fellow Frenchie obsessives, swap stories, make new friends and bond over the weird and wonderful reality of sharing your life with a French Bulldog.
It’s socialising, but the POP+BARK way – easy, feel-good and completely centred around the dogs.
DOG LOVERS WELCOME
No Frenchie required to attend. Just a healthy obsession with them!
Our Dog Lover tickets are made for anyone who fancies spending 80 glorious minutes surrounded by bat ears, chunky chops and more French Bulldogs than you’d usually encounter in a year.
If you’ve always dreamed of owning a Frenchie, come get properly acquainted. Meet them at every life stage, chat to the people who know them best and discover exactly why these funny, affectionate little characters inspire such serious devotion. 🐾
Need a serotonin fix? Consider this your prescription. Come cuddle some Frenchies, grab a cocktail, take approximately 600 photos and leave significantly happier than you arrived.
Bring your bestie, surprise a Frenchie-obsessed friend, plan the cutest first date imaginable or simply book because spending your weekend surrounded by bat ears, funny little faces and a LOT of French Bulldog affection sounds like an excellent life choice.
THE ICONIC PUPUCCINO BAR
No POP+BARK event is complete without a trip to our iconic Pupuccino Bar – and this Halloween, the treats are getting a spooky little glow-up.
Watch your Frenchie pull up to the bar and tuck into a delicious pup cup piled high with tasty toppings, biscuit treats and all their favourite goodies. No tricks here, just treats.
It’s messy, delicious and guaranteed to get those Frenchie chops working overtime. And judging by the eager faces waiting for their turn, the Pupuccino Bar is always one of the highlights of their day. 🧁
FAMILY FRIENDLY FRIGHTS 👻
Calling all little monsters (and big kids too) – POP+BARK Halloween is made for the whole family.
We’ll have Halloween activity sheets, heaps of spooky dog toys and plenty of Frenchies to make friends with, plus our famous Bubble Bash – technically for the dogs, but try telling the kids that once the bubbles start flying. 🫧
Dress them up, bring them along and watch them make friends in a room full of Frenchies, pumpkins, bubbles and Halloween fun. Frenchies + little humans = a pretty unbeatable combination.
And if the grown-ups happen to be enjoying a cocktail while all this is going on? Everybody’s winning. 🍸
HELD AT THE REFINERY BANKSIDE
Say hello to The Refinery, and join us South of the River.
It’s big, beautiful and made for mingling with lots of floor space and comfy seating.
So make yourself at home on a comfy seat, grab a cocktail or spritz, order something delicious from the food menu and turn your POP+BARK visit into a proper feast.
MAKE A DAY OF IT
Why stop at the pawty? Take a stroll around Bankside, squeeze in a little dog-friendly shopping or find somewhere cosy for a post-party bite and a drink.
Frenchies, Halloween and an autumn day out in London? Sounds like a pretty perfect Sunday to us.
Come for POP+BARK, stay for the city and head home with one very happy Frenchie, far too many photos and a day well spent. We think you’re going to LOVE this one – so get those tickets booked.
