About the Park
Draft beer, wine, and cocktails come with the off-leash time at Tucker's Tap Yard, a dog bar at 1010 North Liberty Street in Winston-Salem. The setup covers both seasons: a climate-controlled indoor play area for July humidity and January cold, plus turf yards outside with a covered patio and picnic tables under shade structures. Dogs get agility equipment and parkour obstacles, a separate small-dog area, water access, and full fencing throughout. A self-wash room stocks supplies, bath specialists work Wednesday evenings, and deshed appointments can be booked. Hours run Tuesday through Friday 4 to 9 p.m., Saturday noon to 9, Sunday 1 to 8, closed Mondays. Parking is free. Check tuckerstapyard.com for entry requirements and private event bookings.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go
Tucker's Tap Yard is fully fenced, so your dog can run and play off-leash without worry. This makes it a great choice for dogs still working on recall or for owners who want extra peace of mind.
There's a separate area for small dogs, which is perfect if you have a smaller breed that might be intimidated by larger dogs. This is a feature many dog owners specifically look for.
Dogs can enjoy water features here — great for cooling off on hot days. Bring a towel for the car ride home, because your pup will probably get soaked.
The park has agility equipment, which is excellent for high-energy dogs that need both physical and mental stimulation. Even if your dog hasn't tried agility before, most dogs pick it up quickly with a little encouragement.
Best of all, Tucker's Tap Yard is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.
