Frequently asked
- Is a membership required?
- No. Crate Escapes sells day passes, and one first-time visitor used one for a two-year-old husky without joining.
- Is the play yard supervised?
- Yes. Trained handlers work the floor, which reviewers name as the difference between this and a free municipal run.
- Is there food and drink?
- A full menu from Coastal Cantina, Mexican-leaning with some liberties taken, plus a bar. Reviewers rate the food well beyond the usual dog-bar standard.
- Is there indoor space?
- Yes. The venue runs indoors and out, and reviewers describe it as clean, spacious, and comfortable.
