border.gif (3K) DOGGIE PUBS
Find out where you and your best friend are welcome.

By their recommendations, like-minded people help to make DoggiePubs a useful, non-commercial guide to happy eating out with your dog.

Pubs get included by recommendation - they can't pay to be listed. Eager publicans earn their listings by being dog-friendly, that's all. Our reward is knowing how much this site is liked, and discovering more places where Millie will be welcome.

Finding Your Way around the Website

You may now see all pubs near a location on our beta custom map generator.

We are all very excited by this new map and we would like to send a loud cheer and round of applause to supporter Pete for not only suggesting it, but actually doing the work. This was a really generous and helpful contribution to Doggiepubs… thank-you Pete.

Basically there are three criteria that supporters give the thumbs up to:

  1. where good wines and beer are well kept
  2. where you can eat well
  3. where your well-behaved dog is welcome to be with you while you eat.

Note: we are currently working on a 4th category for pubs that are truly dog friendly but are not foody. This is in response to numerous requests from loyal supporters.

Sample Thumbnail of Custom Pubs Map

Some pubs welcome children but exclude dogs - this is not our favourite rule, we prefer more traditional country inns. Some pubs only allow dogs at outside tables - OK - but some of those won’t serve food outside [truly!] - not OK. Tell us about pubs which do well in the above three categories and we will list them on this non-commercial site.

The commonest excuses about not allowing dogs are "it’s the regulations", or "Brussels", or "they wurrrah-wurrrah the bar stools". We know this is all it is - an excuse, as it is not actually illegal at all (except in the food preparation area).

If you like the idea of Doggie Pubs, become a supporter. All you need to do is feel keen enough to spread the word, and let us know you would like to be included on our listing of supporters, see alongside. You may disclose your rank as supporter whenever you think it is likely to get you a free pint.

Doggie Pubs Calling Cards

Send Millie an SAE (Hindleap Corner, Priory Road, Forest Row, East Sussex, RH18 5JF) and she will send you twenty cards.

Note to pub landlords
Here is a quote from Adam Edwards who has been searching for the best traditional country pubs. He had some rough-and-ready rules: "The pub must serve decent beer [and] be part of the local community. The food must be simple and good, but should not eclipse the important business of drinking. It should not be so popular that the locals have been squeezed out, nor so exclusive that it did not welcome the colonel and the cleaning lady. Ideally, there should be no piped music, no microwaves and no electronic games. Dogs, gumboots and smoking must be allowed. Children could be seen, but should not be heard......."
