Fredericksburg's Best Excuse to Bring Your Dog.

Craft beer, great food, good people and yes, your dog is absolutely invited.

Three Ways to Play

Come for the Beer & Food

No dog required. Pull up a barstool, grab a locally crafted beer or cider, and dig into one of our legendary signature dogs. This is your new go-to hangout in Fredericksburg — whether you've got a four-legged plus-one or not.

Bring Your Dog

Dogs drink free. Owners do not. Grab a pint, head inside or out to the off-leash park, and let your pup run wild while you relax. A $15 day pass gets your dog into the park — no membership needed.

Welcome to The Barking Barley!

We’re a dog-friendly taphouse and bar in the heart of Fredericksburg — and the only place in town where you can crack open a cold one while your dog makes new best friends.

Whether you’re stopping in solo for a beer and a bite, meeting friends for a night out, or bringing the whole family (the furry ones too), The Barking Barley was built for exactly this kind of moment. Local craft beers on tap, signature hot dogs that will get your tail wagging, and an off-leash park on site for the four-legged regulars.

Come as you are. Bring your dog. Stay a while.
