COLUMBUS, Ohio ( WCMH ) — A new Columbus business boasted as the city’s first dog park bar is now welcoming two-legged and four-legged friends.
Bumble’s Backyard opened its doors in Franklinton at 1280 Brown Road in late October as a dog park, bar and coffee shop. Founders Lauryn and Evan Betterton said they were inspired to open the business after noticing a lack of spaces in central Ohio “where dogs and humans can have fun together.”

“My husband Evan and I are crazy dog people,” Lauryn said. “As parents to our dog Bumble, we saw an opportunity to create a meaningful experience for dogs, dog havers and dog lovers.”

Bumble’s is entirely fenced in featuring seating and gathering spaces for dog owners, while the park’s dog-friendly turf guarantees no pup goes home muddy. The backyard is also home to a curated selection of Columbus’ favorite craft beer, One Line coffee and other beverages.
