    Tater Tot styling with @KayKosDogShades, Bark in the Park, 2017
    Cherylynn N.

    4.5 STARS You know how after 7-10 shots in a dark club, e-v-e-r-y-o-n-e is cute? That Ron Jeremy look-a-like in the corner ain't looking too bad now after them patron shots... "Hey, look at that cutie over there!" "Where?" "There!" "Where?" "Dude, there's thousands of dogs here and they're all hella cute!" And, I didn't even need a drop of liquor. If you're a dog lover, Bark in the Park is a must go to event! It's the largest dog festival in America and is held annually at William Street Park in Man Jose: https://www.yelp.com/biz/william-street-park-san-jose-2. I had no idea that this festival has been going on since 1996 and just found out about it last year. Each year, it draws thousands of hoomans and their dogs. We drove here from SF (for the second year in a row) and it's totally worth the drive. There was even a vendor from Singapore! All dogs must register at the entrance and they receive a wristband to wear on their collar. There's a suggested donation of $5 per a dog that goes to the Humane Society of Silicon Valley and San Jose Animal Care Center. (+) Extremely well-organized event. Once you exit the freeway, there's signs leading you to the park. At the registration counter, you're given a map, schedule of demos, and vendor list with their contact info. They even have a human/pet aid and a lost & found area. (+) All the vendors are spread far apart in a large circle so it was easy to walk around without bumping into people. (+) Over 75 dog-related vendors including veterinary hospitals, dog trainers, pet insurance, dog rescue groups, pet photographer, dog clothing, dog hotels, dog toys, and dog treats. **One of the most popular vendors was KayKos Dog Shades. They sold out last year so we were super happy to have snagged a pair ($12) this year: http://bit.ly/2xjBMbY. (+) Lots of freebies: dog treats, reusable tote bags, samples. For a handful of vendors, you can spin a wheel for free to win a prize or a discount on items they're selling. (+) For the most part, dog owners were responsible and all the dogs were well behaved. No dog poop in site (they provide everyone with a poop bag at the entrance). No dog fights broke out that I saw. Dogs in rehabilitation were muzzled. (+) Live music and DJs. (+) Demos/Performances: Dog Agility, K-9 Unit, Sheep Herding, etc. (+) Low cost vaccines and $5 microchipping available by PAWS for San Jose Welfare Society. (+) Kid's entertainment center with face painting, bounce house, and agility course. (+) Handful of food trucks for hoomans. Beer and wine available. (+) Water mist tent!!! And, a hose to cool your dogs off. The large dogs ruuuuuuvvveed it! (+) Plenty of shady areas to rest. (+) Lots of fairly clean porta-potties with foot activated sinks (-) The biggest negative is the festival is held during Indian summer. Last year, it was in the high 90s. Many dogs were struggling with the heat and I saw one dog collapse after leaving (it looked really serious - poor thing!). Thankfully, it was a cooler 79 degrees this year but I hope they consider holding future festivals during the spring or late fall when it's not as hot. (-) Dog pools and water bowls were filthy and the water was brown with debris. Saw several dogs launch into the [kiddy] pools to cool off while the owners screamed, "Noooo!" Damn stubborn huskies - it was pretty hilarious. (-) It's a festival so some things are going to be overpriced BUT some vendors were just taking advantage of the event with insane markups. **Example #1: I bought a pair of doggy socks that were $24 to protect Tater Tot's feet in the heat. When I went home and looked online, the same socks were $8.99. Talk about feeling like a sucker. **Example #2: A vendor was selling doggy birthday hats made of cardboard for...$17! The same hat can be found at dog boutiques in SF for $4.99. (-) Skip the dog ice cream vendor (same vendor at the doggy birthday hats) - it was disgusting. It tasted like a warm ball of salty dough. Tater Tot wouldn't touch it and other people were trying to give theirs away because their dogs wouldn't eat it either. TIPS: (1) Bring your own doggy water bowl. Cold, bottled water was $2. (2) Wear flats or tennis shoes - there's lots of uneven ground and gopher holes. (3) If you have an elderly dog or one that easily overheats, you may want to consider bringing a stroller or dust off your radio flyer in the garage. (4) Come at opening (10 am) or later in the afternoon to snag closer street parking from earlier attendees leaving. Both years, I came at 3 pm and easily found parking less than a block away. Otherwise, there's a parking lot: $10 flat fee. I think I had more fun cooing over all the dogs than Tater Tot who had sensory overload. Usually, he sniffs one booty at a time but didn't even know where to start. First world problems... See y'all next year!

    We love coming to this event. There are so many vendors and pooches to keep you and your fur baby entertained! We like to come early as parking can be a bit of a bear (street parking or paid parking in the school next door). $5 donation gets your puppy inside and goes to a good cause. There are so many vendors there: free food samples, discounted clothing, leashes, pet goodies, your dog needs it? They will have a booth for it! Such a fun place especially for kids (even if you don't have a puppy!). http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/bark-in-the-park-san-jose?select=p86ZCNeDPpgaLGl8_Gtk7A#O_MBHXfsPM5upl6HnXlU_w http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/bark-in-the-park-san-jose?select=p86ZCNeDPpgaLGl8_Gtk7A#fd2IYxSbM6eIlaGFxcz4wQ http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/bark-in-the-park-san-jose?select=p86ZCNeDPpgaLGl8_Gtk7A#5gEzPVacndymyiB0tcPKvw

    Great event for dog and owners! There's a $5 donation per adult and a form you'll need to fill out before entering. We came a towards the end of the event so we didn't get as much free stuff because some vendors ran out. So come at 10am when they open if you want to maximize collecting free stuff! Parking is really hard to find even around 3:30 when the event ends at 5pm. I just kept driving till I found a spot on the street. There's a good amount of food trucks and food vendors for people. I highly recommend Feed N' Treat. Their crepes are really good! Overall fun for the entire family especially our doggos

    Parking was a challenge. Street parking in the residential it is. There's a registration they ask you to sign in and nicely ask for $5 donation, but I only had $3 cash but they take whatever they can get. Lots of tables from vet hospitals, boutiques, daycare, dog food, etc. Free tote bags and goodies from many tables. Free wheel spins for goodies but some charge you to spin. A few food trucks. Some shade but still a hot sunny day, too hot for most dogs. 80's temperature in late Sept. Stage with activities but I didn't watch it. Too busy walking around the tables and meeting new doggy friends. Overall a great event and fun. Nice park and nice neighborhood, not ghetto. Although the residential area there was a lot of poop not picked up so beware.

    I'm so glad my friend told me about this event.. I had the best time ever!! Maybe even possibly more than my dog, Karma. Lol. I've never seen so many cute dogs at once. And you know I tried to pet and talk to every single one that came close to me. I'm obsessed, obviously. Haha. There were plenty of booths, shows and free treats!! I will definitely go back next year. Paws up to the organizers of this event ;)

    The reviews speak for itself. This year was the first time I took Bosley to Bark in the Park and I must say, I cannot believe I didn't know about this event before. This is such a great place to bring you whole family and pets. It's basically like a festival for your dogs. There are tons of vendors where you can see different products and there are many events to spend time with your pet. The park itself is HUGEE and it can easily fit 100s of people and dogs. To get to the event, you must cross a bridge over a creek and get to the registration tent. You need to register your dog for the event just for precautions. (Just in case you lose your dog etc.) Also, a $5 donation is greatly appreciated. Once you're in, there are countless things to do. You can purchase merchandise for your dogs from accessories to clothing or you can even get a professional portrait of your dog. There are treats, agility courses, contests, even a couple of dog competitions to watch. Also, if you're hungry, there are a couple of food vendors. (Humans only) But there are plenty of vendors that have samples of dog food and treats if your dog is hungry. This event was so much fun. Bosley had such a great time meeting new friends and checking out all of the vendors. If you have a dog, you MUST come here next year!

    This year's festival was very disappointing - especially the costume contest. And no, despite what it might seem, I don't give a crap that neither of the pooches we entered won anything. (Okay, I care a little, but I would never write a bad review for that reason.) I was just so frustrated with the poor choice of the 2/3 that did win! Third place was a fairy made from store-bought items and a pink knit baby blanket. Seriously?! What happened to the value of originality?! Second place went to a very offensive hobo costume. If I had dressed my dog as someone with down syndrome, or as a prostitute, would I have won too?! First place I didn't agree with, but I don't think was a completely retarded choice. At least a dog dressed as Pink took some thought and consideration. Plus he had a bad-ass wig. But seriously, there were so many costumes this year that deserved recognition. There was the Chinese Crested Waterdog covered in green balloons and green hair dye - a bunch of grapes! How clever! Then my personal favorite was the bull dog engulfed in foil wrapping with a little checkoff list of ingredients taped on - a very impressive burrito. The festival itself was too packed just an hour after opening at 10 AM. My little dog was yelping with fear of the feet constantly parading around her. If they don't find a larger location next year, I probably won't be going again.

It's amazing to see how all-out so many of the houses go, just about every single one has some sort of Christmas or Hanukkah display, light, or decoration. It's also amazing how much more crowded it gets every year. I used to drive it, but now I don't dare try. I'll typically park near one of the main streets and get out and walk. This is usually much more enjoyable since you aren't having to fight nonstop car and foot traffic. This year I went a little late in the season and even walking it wasn't all that enjoyable because of the groups of 15+ people together and the people running around doing a scavenger hunt, so lesson learned. This past year we parked a bit further and got to see some displays that I either haven't seen in the past or are newer, but it was nice to stroll the less crowded streets and still enjoy the holiday magic. Unlike in years past, there were even street dog vendors out this time around. Felt like I was leaving a concert or a sporting event!

What we thought would be a short stroll turned into a full holiday experience, one of those nights where Christmas feels alive. We have seen many decorated streets and cul de sacs before, but Willow Glen surprised us. Multiple neighborhoods followed shared themes, with streets labeled things like Candy Cane Lane and Santa's Sleigh and Reindeer. It felt like walking through a storybook, where each street had its own chapter. The decorations were beautiful and thoughtful. Some areas felt like a small festival, with trains, horse carriages, brews on bicycles, and families everywhere enjoying the moment. Vendors selling churros, hot chocolate, hot dogs, and light up toys added to the fun. These streets truly embody Christmas, warm, joyful, and full of wonder. The highlight of the night was meeting Mrs. Santa Claus of Willow Glen. She was kind, welcoming, and full of heart. She hosted the churro truck and clearly gives so much back to the community. She felt like the soul of the neighborhood, a reminder that Christmas magic often comes from people, not just lights. Bring your family and friends and take your time walking around, or enjoy it from your car. There is so much to see and feel here. This is the kind of place that turns a simple evening into a memory, and it will definitely be an annual Christmas tradition for us.

    Greek Flavor and Hospitality Done Right…read more The 2025 San Jose Greek Festival at St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church once again proves why it's one of the Bay Area's most anticipated annual events. This isn't just a church fundraiser--it's a cultural celebration packed with unforgettable food, warm hospitality, and a sense of joyful community you can't fake. Let's talk about the food, which was firing on all cylinders this year. YiaYia's Kitchen, located inside the church's basketball arena, brought a full-court press of Greek comfort food. The lamb shank with orzo was fall-off-the-bone fantastic, the Pastitsio and Mousaka hit every creamy, cinnamon-laced note, and the vegetarian stuffed tomatoes and bell peppers were fragrant, filling, and a welcome lighter option. Whether you dined solo or at a communal table, there was no shortage of generous portions and smiling faces. And, of course, FABULOUS DESERTS! But the biggest buzz this year? The new Saganaki stand--and let me just say: OPA! This was more than just flaming cheese (which was fantastic, by the way--crispy edges, gooey center, splash of lemon). What made it truly special was the assortment of pita dips served alongside. There was a spicy feta (tirokafteri), a cool eggplant melitzanosalata, and a robust hummus that balanced the richness of the cheese. The dips elevated the stand from snack stop to gourmet tasting corner. Unfortunately, by late Sunday, the dips had sold out--a testament to their popularity--but thankfully, festival organizers had enough extra tzatziki on hand to keep everyone happy. And that tzatziki deserves its own round of applause. It's been hit or miss in past years, especially on the final day--but not this year! Creamy, garlicky, and fully stocked all weekend long. It paired beautifully with everything: dolmathes, souvlaki, or just scooped up with a corner of warm pita. Service across the board was efficient and friendly, even with a few long lines. Credit goes to the army of volunteers--young and old--who make this three-day marathon hum. Whether it was someone clearing trays, pouring Greek wine in the tent, or dancing in costume for the crowd, every person seemed genuinely proud to be there. That kind of hospitality is what sets this festival apart. The best in the Bay Area! Opa! Also worth noting: desserts were excellent (get the galaktoboureko early before it disappears), the beer and wine locations were lively without being chaotic. And, the air-conditioned and shaded dining areas were a welcome addition during peak sun. Especially on Saturday, with temperatures approaching 100 degrees F. By the time the last bouzouki strummed its notes Sunday night, the festival had once again fed thousands--body and soul. If you missed it, put it on your calendar now. The weekend after Memorial Day. The San Jose Greek Festival isn't just a great event. It's an embrace from a community that knows how to cook, how to host, and how to share its culture with open arms.

Initially I was like, oh, that's cool to put angel wings on the tree. Then I saw the photo and my heart sank. My niece who was closer was able to read that the child had passed away. It totally ruined my vibe. Was this appropriate for a festive park? That entire section had photos of people who had passed away. So, here's the other thought on my opinion. I saw a picture of an adult female and then I thought, "What a wonderful way to memorialize her for the season." I had missed emotions, but I would have preferred to overlook this section altogether. For years we would come and my small child would get this plastic Rudolph that would be on a stick. I probably got him that thing 3-years in a row. I was hoping to grab one for my nephew this year...ha ha, it's been over twenty years, and they didn't have any of the plastic blow ups for sale, but they did have hot chocolate. I'm not sure if the vendor now is the same as the one over twenty years ago, but this hot chocolate was clearly Swiss Miss or Nestle. It was basic, but the exciting part were the toppings... we had whipped cream, sprinkles, a candy cane and a little plastic snowman's head. We got the large, which was totally unnecessary and not just because of the $11 cost. Noticeably missing were the snow machines throughout the park, but my nephew was probably too young to enjoy it anyway. Also parking around the perimeter is impossible because they block all the parking. You can circle around to find a park or do what we did and just park in the lot next to the skating rink, which is across the street. I believe it was $2 per 20 minutes. Here's What I Think... If you've never been, check it out. It's nice to see the efforts the children and organizations put into decorating their trees. For me, it'll be another few years before I go back.
