Spend your Saturday soaking in the best of Oakland’s waterfront with your pup by your side at the Jack London Pup Crawl 2026 — a one-of-a-kind dog-friendly experience designed for connection, community, and a little indulgence along the way.

From 9:30 AM to 1:00 PM on April 18, Jack London Square transforms into a lively, pet-friendly playground where local bars, restaurants, and businesses open their doors to you and your four-legged companion. Think of it as your classic crawl — reimagined for dog lovers.

Stroll the scenic waterfront, pop into participating spots, and discover curated specials, treats, and experiences made for both humans and pups. Whether you're sipping, snacking, or simply exploring, every stop offers something new — and every step is better with your dog beside you.

This isn’t just an event — it’s a social experience. Expect a vibrant crowd of fellow dog parents, plenty of photo-worthy moments, and that unmistakable Bay Area energy that turns a casual morning into something memorable.

Whether you're looking to meet other dog lovers, explore Oakland in a new way, or just treat your pup to a day out, the Jack London Pup Crawl is your perfect excuse to get outside, get social, and experience the city together.

Leash up, bring your crew, and make a morning of it — this is what dog-friendly living in the Bay Area is all about.

Join us for a dog-friendly, dog-centric, daytime bar and food crawl throughout the Jack London District!

Oakland's Jack London neighborhood is a notoriously dog-friendly destination, so we're taking it up a notch and planning a mega-dog-friendly crawl this Spring!

Mark your calendars for our first ever Jack London Pup Crawl on Saturday, April 18th. This brand-new dog-centric bar and food crawl will take over Oakland’s waterfront brewery, bar, and restaurant scene for one day only. Explore your favorite neighborhood bars and restaurants and enjoy discounted cocktails, beers, and bites, all while having your furry friend in tow!

This event is free to attend with RSVP, BUT we highly encourage you to make a donation here on Eventbrite to help support local animal shelters! We will be donating proceeds to Oakland Animal Services. It's the perfect way to give back to the community while having an awesome day with your four (and two) legged pals!
