Neighbors Dog Park & Cafe

At the risk of sounding dramatic, Neighbors has truly changed our life. My two dogs (10-year-old Husky mix and 2-year-old Great Pyrenees mix) started coming here almost a year ago after moving to the South Austin area. We had already been in Austin for three years at the time, but I was still really searching for that sense of community that I felt was missing from my life. At the time we started going to Neighbors, I had just started working completely remotely, and I was terrified of being home all day every day without that sense of community.Neighbors is more than we could have ever asked for! After going for the first time, we immediately signed up for a membership and have been going every morning since. I have made lifelong friends, my girls have made lifelong fur-ends, and I finally found that community I was so very badly craving. ALL of this while allowing my big girls (with loads of energy) to get their zoomies out in a safe and clean environment.We will be Neighbors members for years to come. This is seriously the best place in all of Austin, and I could never express just how much it means to us.

Great coffee shop/dog park. Tons of space, almost all is turf, lots of seating, they even have heaters, nice mix of shade and sun. Some of it was a little weird, maybe unexpected coming from a regular dog park. They ask for collars, not harnesses as the harnesses are easier for dogs to get caught on; not a big deal but caught us off guard. $15 for a day pass, $35/mo for a membership, $13 for any additional dogs. A fun spot that is very welcomed in South Austin.

Moved to Austin about 3 months ago. We tried most of the other dog bar/cafe parks around the area and this one is by far the best. We now have a monthly membership.The staff is attentive and friendly. The park is clean and wide open for the dogs to run and play. And they offer a variety of sodas, beers /wine and great coffee / tea!This kind of set up is not for everyone but we frequent dog parks like this. We actually prefer this set up as the more “strict” rules, like no toys, keep our dog happy and safe. We’ve been to public dog parks and there’s always a scuffle over toys or treats.

What a perfect mix of a coffee shop and dog park! The staff is kind and attentive, the cold brew is SUPERB and the vibes are always good. I love taking my lil guy here to hang with all the coffee loving pups! 20/10 would recommend for any pup and their person.

Neighbors is our second home. I don’t know what we’d do without it. Our dog Walter would get bullied at some of the other public dog parks and apathetic owners don’t usually step in to control their dogs. At neighbors, everybody seems to pay attention to their dogs and the added MAJOR BENEFIT of having wranglers there to step in if a dog is being a grump is a huge help. The premises is always cleaned and well maintained. WiFi is awesome to knock out some work while there and added benefit of awesome coffee + beer is incredible. Staff is exceptional.

Man, we love this place. It’s safe, everyone is extremely friendly, the staff is well trained and respectful. My dog has the best time - her confidence around other dogs has increased and she’s learning to play in big groups. I’ve even made my own friends! The big and little dogs all get along, and it’s a great place to help any newer pups learn the rules of socializing. We come at least 3 times a week!

Neighbors is the only reason my fearful boy has learned how to be social with strangers and I'm thankful every single day (literally) for the patience of the staff, which has allowrd us to get to a point where we can watch him run around in a safe place with zero triggers.It's an amazing spot where you can socialize with friends whilst your dogs do the same.

Love, love, LOVE this dog park & coffee shop. Kids are allowed on the patio but NOT in the park itself. It's fantastic because my big boy (Sullivan) is 135lbs and not good with kids (loves to chase them and then tackle). It's been really difficult to find a dog-friendly place where no children are allowed for their safety or where the rule is actually enforced and I'm so happy we found it. I live next to a dog park, but can't take my guy out because a lot of parents will bring their children in. Even though it is a dog park, I feel safer just removing my dog for their sake.The rules this place has let me literally just relax and work (they have wifi!) without fearing Sul will become a linebacker when he sees a kiddo. The coffee is awesome too and the people working are always really, really sweet. The dog wrangles are great about making sure all pups stay safe, so our tiny pug that's less than 19lbs AND my giant can both enjoy. Seriously a huge fan of Neighbors and appreciate y'all giving my boys a place where they can romp around and have fun.

Absolutely fantastic experience! The matcha latte was delicious and all of the staff members I interacted with were very friendly.The attendants do a great job of keeping the dog park area very clean. No worries about a poo minefield like you'd find at a regular dog park. The dogs were all well behaved and friendly.There's lot of seating options outside between the lounge chairs and picnic tables (with and without umbrellas). Made an excellent spot to do some work for a few hours while my dog got some supervised play time.Truly, this concept is genius and I will undoubtedly be back!

We’ve been member at neighbors for almost 2 years, And have seen it transform into the place it is today. We love the new turf and shaded areas. We have 2 Rottweilers that look forward to visiting neighbors at least 2-3 times a week. I personally enjoy it because I get to work on my laptop and have met lots of really sweet folks. We live further south and while we have a comparable dog park near us, we prefer to drive a bit further to come to neighbors. Neighbors has become a lot like visiting a good friend’s home—we are always well received, our fur babies are excited to run in and play and we love Lamar and Katie, the owners. You can tell they really care about the dogs. We recently hosted Sam’s ( our 12 yr old dog) birthday at neighbors and had a blast.

Staff was very friendly. Cool ambiance.The rules for the dogs totally make sense, no outside toys, no treats. My dog is not interested in playing with other dogs, she really only likes her ball. For her, she wasn't really interested but I did see tons of dogs playing together and think the concept is really great.

Really nicely maintained and managed dog park that I frequent to help the dogs get the zoomies out. The monthly membership for 2 dogs is a STEAL tbqh. I can't believe this place exists, and is so close to my house! There's plenty of space, seating, shade, and yummy drinks for humans. For canine guests, there are fun obstacles (platforms, seesaw, tunnel) and the pup wranglers always make sure there's clean water for every pup-lete. Pawsitively 5 stars!Restrooms: Clean bathroom. Hint: the lock is a small button, but it's there!Dog-friendliness: The doggiest friendliest spot in Austin (and we've been to plenty of play to pay "dog" "parks")

This dog park is not kid friendly and they removed their little dog park. I have a three month old, whom the check in counter saw as we walked in but said nothing. After paying $50 for two day passes for my little dogs and two coffees, we went outside to find out that my infant whom we were holding wasn’t allowed in the park. I can understand that there are rules - but this should be clear on the inside and when purchasing a pass with a kid. We also only went here because we wanted a small dog park so it was really disappointing that it was taken away and is one big dog park now. It’s a really nice park if you have big dogs and no kids.

My dog loved it here, his quiet and shy so I try to take him to be social. All dogs that come are safe and trained, they have someone supervising there at all times as well. Their coffee is delishhh too. Support your local areas :)

We love this place! We’ve been going with our pup almost every weekend since it opened. The staff is great, the facility is awesome and we just have the best time there, plus it’s nice to meet the other dog parents. Our girl comes home happy and tired (and dirty, but it’s worth it to see her have such a great time).

My puppy and I love Neighbors! The staff is awesome and it’s always clean and well cared for. There’s plenty of shady spots to sit, wireless fans you can bring to your table when it’s hot, plenty of obstacles for the dogs, they play good music, their coffee shop is great, it’s BYOB, honestly what’s not to love? The fact that it’s staffed is so nice, everyone is super friendly, plus they bring you water and pick up after the dogs, and break up any tussles that happen. You can leave and use the restroom or grab a coffee if you need! There is a tub for the dogs which means you can expect your pup to get pretty wet and dirty, but it’s definitely worth it.

We have visited Neighbors ever since their grand opening and we love this place! The owners are so kind and charismatic, they go above and beyond with everyone that visits. My favorite part is that they have wranglers and rules! And both are so important to keep our doggies safe and happy!

We love it here! Great drinks from the coffee shop as well as lovely employees who care deeply for all dogs. All of the handlers make it a point to personally know each dog and owner, and I love coming here every day to get outside and work remotely.

Great place for dogs and humans! Their dog park area feels really well cared for and their prices are reasonable in my opinion! I think it's more worth it do to a monthly, even if you only plan on swinging by a handful of times. They have a large amount of water bowls, outdoor seating, benches, tables, bug sprays, and a few dog obstacles. There's also a covered patio area that's separated from the dog area. They have wifi and some beverage options, but I haven't tried many of their beverages yet so can't speak to that. It does often have a calmer vibe than a traditional dog park. One negative is I noticed a flea on my dog while we were there and again when we got home. Fleas happen, but it was definitely annoying. Also, during hot days they put out a tub of water for the dogs, which is great but I wish they had a little wash/rinse station that wasn't just hosing them off near the porch, in the dirt. Hopefully, they think of something like that for the future! Honestly, those things are just me being picky, I do overall love this dog park cafe and I'm so happy I found it! 🤗 Definitely recommend!

This place was sent from the heavens!!!! Such a genius idea and it was executed perfectly. First, Lamar and Kati were incredibly welcoming and friendly. The dog park was designed perfectly with obstacles for the dogs and shaded picnic tables for the humans, plus water for the dogs to play in to help with the heat. I used the patio to work remotely while my pup had the time of her life. Lamar and another employee were very engaging with the dogs - always making sure they were having a blast and staying safe. Plus, the coffee was great. My dog left tired and we both left smiling. The only negative is that I’m moving out of state and won’t be able to go much longer. Definitely support this local business!

I came in for a day pass but couldn’t stay because I didn’t have my vet records but I loved the boho vibe with the gorgeous house plants and super sweet baristas. I’m definitely coming back. I got to chat with Ry, she seems fun! I like that she keeps the pools clean for the dogs. There was also another girl outside I didn’t get a chance to chat with but can’t wait to come back more prepared next time!

I came in here with a day pass because I was driving through Austin with my dog, who is anti social, and "Ry" immediately brought him out of his shell. She played with him for the entire time we were there. She was hanging out with the rest of the dogs and playing with the hose and pool and you can tell all the dogs really like her. She very clearly cares about the dogs. She literally treats them like they are her children and you can tell she can talk to them, she's a dog whisperer!

I’ve been coming to Neighbors for a month and it has become my favorite place in Austin I swear ❤️We adopted Shiloh 5 months ago (from the Austin Animal Center 🐾) and we weren’t ready to take her to dog parks just yet… enter Neighbors! A gated, supervised dog park with amazing coffee and more amazing owners! It’s honestly so fun to watch Shiloh play and it really feels like all the staff is taking special care of her :)Lamar and Kati have created something so special and me and Shiloh are happy to be part of it!

This place is the perfect spot for you and your pup. I’ve even gone without my dog bc they have free wifi so I can get some work done while enjoying the patio, beverages, a snack and good tunes. Plus it’s fun to watch the dogs have a good time.My dog always gets excited - lives the social time with other dogs. The yard is kept safe and the handlers are great with the dogs. Lamar and Katie are amazing!

Our pup always enjoys his time at Neighbors Dog Park! I loved that they had turf so he doesn’t come home all muddy or dusty.

One of my favorite places in Austin hands down! This place has really changed so much since they've opened, and the owners always find a way to make it better and better! It really helped our pups socialize better with other dogs and the staff is super friendly and welcoming!

I would give this place 6 stars if I could! Our dog always has the best time and leaves exhausted! Staff is amazing and so friendly! Could not be more happy with our membership at Neighbors Dog Park!

Nice place to go if you have a dog. The baristas are great and the outdoor for dogs is chill and pleasant. It's worth it! I like the raw cacao drink!

Where dogs and cyber-cafe meet: Superb design, caring dog wranglers, delicious coffee, even mosquito spray. Everything in this place is thought with care and attention to detail. I signed up for a monthly subscription immediately. This is a really an innovative idea for a very old problem.

This is more of a dog cafe with a dog park in the back. I'm sure it's fine, but not the dog park I was expecting.I wanted to stop in with my dogs while visiting the area, but couldn't as they require shot records with you, so make sure to have that with you.
