Hide AdO’Hares Lounge Bars fought off fierce competition from a number of dog-friendly watering holes across Northern Ireland, but held on to the top spot after accumulating the most votes.
Jack O’Hare, owner of O’Hares Lounge Bars, was delighted with the news, saying: “Winning this award is huge. We already make every effort to ensure all guests and their dogs are made to feel right at home, and we believe this award will generate further awareness for families and friends who travel, as it is at times difficult to find places who welcome dogs.
“We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who voted and showed outstanding support and we would also like to thank the DogBuddy Team for all their hard work for this wonderful award.”
