Dog Friendly Pubs
Share
There’s nothing quite like a refreshing pint after a countryside stroll — and it's even better when your four-legged best friend can join you. Across the UK, a growing number of pubs are rolling out the red carpet for dogs, offering everything from water bowls and dog treats to full-on doggy menus.
At Chef Woof, we've sniffed out some of the best dog-friendly pubs where both humans and hounds are welcome:
1. The Bell Inn – Wylye, Wiltshire
Nestled in the picturesque village of Wylye, The Bell Inn is a charming 16th-century coaching inn that warmly welcomes dogs. With dog biscuits at the bar and muddy boot zones, it's ideal for post-walkies drinks.
2. The Lion & Lobster – Brighton
Just a stone’s throw from the beach, The Lion & Lobster boasts a relaxed vibe where dogs are treated like royalty. With regency-style rooms and a rooftop terrace, it’s a pawfect place to relax with your pup.

This coastal pub has sea views and serious dog-friendly charm. Water bowls, snacks, and fusses all included.
Chef Woof Tip:
Always check the pub's dog policy before you go, especially during busy times or holidays. Keep your dog on a lead, be courteous to other guests, and bring a blanket or mat if they’re likely to nap under the table.
