Pints & Pups

Only one day a year we break our own rules. Any rule breakers out there, this is your moment! Typically, K-9s aren’t allowed on Indian Creek Plaza, and I’m sure you’ve seen all our signs saying so. But, for this event only, we put all that signage in storage for the afternoon and welcome all your 4-legged besties to the party. Not only are they invited, but they ARE the party! We cater to all things dog for our annual Dogtoberfest.

We’re going full Bavarian on this one and putting our own twist on the centuries-old German Oktoberfest. What better way to celebrate doggo than to have a cold beer in one hand and a leash in the other. This is a great opportunity for those water lovin’ pups to enjoy our splash pad for the afternoon.

Some event highlights include “Running of the Wieners,” so pack up those Dachshunds and bring them on down to the plaza. They’re just so fun to watch! Dress up your pup in their finest threads ‘cause there’s a costume contest. Go all out! Think you have the forearm strength of a 19th-century Bavarian farmer? Prove it! We’re having a Stein Holding Contest, so get those arms prepped and ready for the occasion.
