Had so much fun here! Very clean environment with plenty parking. The staff and very friendly and great with instruction of handling the pugs. The pugs are really treat driven and they know the people inside have treats. A fun hour, very worth it!

If you want to experience an hour of pure joy and delight, this is the place to go! Very clean and very well behaved puppies/dogs! Highly recommend getting the sausage for snack time (you’ll know why when you do it). We went at 4pm so they weren’t as hyper which is good if you want extra cuddles and opportunities to hold them. They definitely still had enough energy for some tug-of-war play time! We had to much fun and the next time I’m in town we will visit again!

Omg this is a definite plus place to go. The pugs are soooo cute and entertaining. Very good for people that can't have dogs. Very good for my depression playing with them

Dropped my pug off today as life got the best of us and we can no longer keep her within the family as we have to move. My dear Bonnie we dropped off, I didn’t quite get the names of the people I dropped them off with however they were so sweet the man and woman! I was holding back tears so couldn’t talk much but I knew they are going to take great care of her even after i left they texted me telling me bonnie is already fitting right in just what i needed to hear these people are amazing !!! Stopping by and giving support to this business is not only helping these Godsent people but also these pigs !!! They take such good care of them from what i saw I know Bonnie is in good hands and while she is at the Cafe once she’s adopted it will be her forever home ! Thank you CuppaPug!! I hope Bonnie has an amazing time and this business continues to flourish!!!!

An absolute swarm of pugs, some playful, some snuggly, some chill. All delightful. What's not to love!?! It's a bit pricey, and they play bad music far too loud, but the pugs are well worth it. We'll be back. A person I spoke with indicated that they are working on getting their cafe side set up, so if you're expecting prepared coffee beverages know that they're not quite there yet as of September 2025.

Me and my husband love pugs. Ours passed away a year ago at the age of 16 so of course we had to visit CuppaPug! I booked the puppy social and it was the best hour ever!! We have never interacted with pug pups so this was such a heartwarming moment for us and honestly we could have spent the entire day with ALL the pugs. Some pups were available for adoption too! Definitely coming back to spend time with the adults pugs next! Thanks for having us!

We brought our French bulldog to Cup A Pug and had the best time! The space is incredibly clean, and the atmosphere is so welcoming—for both humans and pups. All of the dogs were friendly and well cared for, and it was such a joy to be around them. What makes this place even more special is that they have rescues there that are up for adoption, giving them a chance at a loving home. It's a beautiful place with a wonderful mission—we’ll definitely be back!

If you love pugs or even just love dogs, you will love this place. It’s such a fun, unique experience. The pugs come running out with unbridled joy and you get to play, cuddle and give them treats. Jeffrey was very welcoming and it’s obvious how much he cares about the pups. He made our visit extra special.
