Have you had the best Summer ever with your little bestie? We’ve been loving getting back into the swing of our events and to celebrate, we’re seeing off our Summer off with a bang! This event will be full of rainbows, joy, colour, flowers, sparkle and paw-sitivity.
Dachshund Cafe is the ultimate doggy day out and a feel-good, joyful event for dogs and humans. Lots of treats, food and drinks, good music and happy sausages. Nobody leaves without a waggy tail and a huge smile on their face!
You may be thinking – why just Dachshunds? Well, just like birds of a feather flock together, Dachshunds love to bounce along and play with their fellow kind.
Imagine going to a party where everywhere had the same sense of humour? It’s like that, but better.
This will be their Best Day Ever with lots to sniff and explore on the journey there, treats and pupuccinos on arrival, playtime with fellow dachshunds… and heaps of fuss from the dog-loving humans in attendance.
Over 15,000 dogs have experienced our famous dog events and we’ve been given the paws of approval by BBC News, LADbible, Metro, The Telegraph and lots more. We are the most talked about dog event in the UK so come see what it’s all about…
We’ve teamed up with the party experts – Pitcher & Piano in Tunbridge Wells. It’s a fabulous venue that flows across their indoor restaurant/bar areas and outside terrace.
So grab your Dachshund squad, your other half, the kids, your friends and book in. We’re a totally inclusive, family-friendly event!
The best thing is, you don’t need to own a dachshund to come and enjoy lots of doggy cuddles and licks. I have previously had a dachshund and miss them so, or you long for your own dog… or just love love love dachshunds, this is the event for you.
This is the perfect chance to get to know this special breed first hand from their owners who know them best. You’ll get the opportunity to learn more about Dachshunds, make friends (both human and furry), enjoy lots of dachshund cuddles and take it all in.
So stop scrolling through Instagram and TikTok – nows your chance to meet some lovely little sausages in real life. All the dogs will be off-lead and free to roam and make friends.
We will be at Pitcher & Piano on Sunday 11th September 2022 and the breed-specific Dachshund Cafe timeslot will be at 11am. Another time slot may open up depending on demand so keep your paws crossed and watch this space.
So let’s talk about our Pop + Bark Pupuccino Bar.
We are proud creators of the world’s first and only dedicated Pupuccino Bar for dogs! It is the coolest experience for a dog, and our specialist “Miss Pupuccino” Bartender will whip up your dogs drink with a host of tasty toppings including organic peanut butter sprinkles, beetroot pupcorn, doggy jazzies, seasonal fruits, cheesy biscuits and lots more.
Alongside the bar will be Rudi’s the Doggy Bakery serving up freshly-baked Pupcakes, Doughnuts, Biscuits delights.
Pitcher & Piano will be serving a menu of all their favourite dishes including savoury and sweet so whatever your mood and appetite there will be something to tickle your tastebuds. Of course, there’ll also be wine, spritzes and cocktails too.
All well-behaved dachshunds are welcome, but there are some doggy do’s and dont’s:
