Catherine and Silvia were the absolute best! I came in here about 15 min before they were about to…read moreclose and being that it was my first time there, I was completely overwhelmed. Luckily, they were very patient, friendly, and super knowledgeable. They even gave me a little mini tour. Speaking of good customer service, on my second visit, I met one of the owners and the same can be said about him. He was just a a great person, overall. Passionate about his business and really down to earth. I could literally talk to him all day. So with that said, this place is amazing! It's bright and airy, fun, clean, and very well stocked, without making it look cluttered. And everything is of great quality.
As for the treats, they have a freezer to the left that's full of birthday cakes, cupcakes, and other small cake-like treats. There's also a display case that has a creative display of dog biscuits. It's always a pleasant surprise to see what the chef has created. So far, I've seen burgers/ fries, paws, bones, signs, donuts, and many other colorful designs. I recently went to Michaels for their Cinco de Barko event and they even had themed treats for that! Churro sticks, taco, sombrero treats, as well as a bone broth "margarita" that even came in a mini glass! Too cute! Lol. Speaking of the treats, they have a very nice commercial kitchen with a huge window, so you can see the chef in action. Seriously, their kitchen is nicer and cleaner than what I've seen in a lot of restaurants.
If that's not enough, they also have bones/ cowhides, a great selection of chew toys, clothes, beds, and even a dog tent!
Finally, around the back of the store, you'll find the grooming area. It also has a seperate entrance, making it easily accessible from the rear parking lot. As for grooming, they offer all grooming services that you can think of and they also have an impressive selection of grooming supplies.
All in all, Michaels Barkery exceeded my expectations in every way possible and this is a true one stop shop!
