At Belhaven, we know that dogs aren’t just pets. They’re family. And no trip to the pub is complete without them right by your side. That’s why we have dozens of dog-friendly pubs across Scotland. Places for your pet to get excited at all the new sights and smells. Places that welcome them with open arms. Places where cosy corners, open fireplaces and maybe the odd treat or two await.

A warm welcome for your dog
Dogs have the power to light up anyone’s day. And that’s certainly true of the animal lovers on our pub teams. But a warm welcome at our dog-friendly pubs isn’t only about being greeted with a smile. It’s about having comfortable areas where they can happily lie down and relax. It’s about providing a water bowl if you need one. It’s about having treats on hand for when they’re being a particularly good boy or girl. And it’s about withholding judgement if you decide to share some of your food with your dog under the table.
Quality time with your pet
Do you hate leaving your dog at home? Do you worry about them being lonely or do they suffer from separation anxiety? If so, it can be hard to really relax and enjoy yourself when you go to the pub. This isn’t a problem when you head to one of our dog-friendly pubs. Whether you’re coming to us for a family meal, getting together with friends in one of our beer gardens or joining us for a drink and a bite after a nice walk with your very best mate – you can look forward to spending quality time with your dog at one of our pubs.
Always part of the family
No family occasion is complete without your dog by your side. No matter if it’s a quiet meal at the weekend or a huge celebration with your whole clan, your pet’s always part of the fun with us. And ready to be front and centre in your latest family picture. We’re proud of the welcoming atmosphere we offer at our family-friendly pubs, including facilities like disabled access and free WiFi, as well as kids’ menus for your little ones.
If you're visiting one of our dog-friendly pubs, please remember the following:
- Dogs are welcome in designated dog-friendly pubs at the manager's discretion. We apologise for any inconvenience.
- Please make sure you and your four-legged friend are considerate of other guests... and other dogs!
- We love wagging tails and excitable characters, but where possible we'd love for you to help keep barking to a minimum.
- Our team are usually busy serving food and collecting glasses, so for their safety dogs should always be kept on a lead in both inside and outside seating areas.
- We like to keep our pubs looking their best, so please keep dogs off sofas, chairs and other furniture.
