Hi,

Just wanted to share a quick note about an app my wife and I have developed – it’s called Pints n Paws. If you’re a dog lover (and partial to a good pint or bite to eat), it might be right up your street.

Pints n Paws is a free mobile app developed here in Northern Ireland (we are based in Comber), built to help dog owners discover and share dog-friendly locations across the entire UK and Ireland.

The app offers:

📖 A directory of verified dog-friendly pubs, cafés, restaurants, shops, and more
🗺️ A map-based search to easily explore nearby or distant locations
🌆 The ability to upload photos, leave reviews, and comment on listings
🦴 A community-driven reward system where users earn treats for contributing
🔴 The ability to create Hot Spots (areas of interest) so that whenever a location is added in that area, you will be notified.

The database is growing daily, with new locations added and verified by both the Pints n Paws team and its active user community.

Pints n Paws is completely free, with no hidden charges. It's designed to make going out with your dog easier, wherever you are in the UK or Ireland.

Available on Apple App Store and Google Play.

  1. Assuming you made this, being dog owners and you didn’t even share with us your pup

  3. Do you have a web based version rather not have to download an app

  4. I love this! It shows which pubs to avoid. I know you made this for a specific crowd, but it’s an also service for people who don’t want dog hairs in their drinks. Brilliant idea.

  5. Wayhey, glad to see innovation in Comber! Maybe my mutt and I will bump into Daisy in Trait.

  6. Was in Bullhouse one evening, someone came in with an Alsatian and it did a huge shit on the floor in the middle of the bar. Can I add that to the app?

  7. I thought this trend of taking your mutt for a pint was a bit odd. Different if it’s a country pub and you’re out for the day and just want a refreshment, but taking your dog to the pub in the city, just because you can, is a bit strange. I’ve observed it being a good icebreaker/conversation starter though as nobody can resist petting a cute dog. I’m neither for nor against it though.

  8. Fantastic idea. I’ll be sharing this with my dog owning friends

  9. This will be a great help for my wife as she’s always looking for dog friendly cafes, she runs a paw print business – Give Us A Paw, and she’s always looking for new locations to meet dog owners and take prints. 

  11. Now I *really* need to get my dog to stop being lead reactive!

    Great work to you both! Going down to Wicklow at the end of the month so I’ll try it out

  12. Ayy! Comber spotted! My home town 💞 super cool app, too. I would definitely use it if I still lived in NI.
