Alexander's Grand Café, Bar & Terrace

Alexander's Grand Café, Bar & Terrace is a smart all-day dining spot in central Skipton where dogs are welcome inside the Parlour, as well as on the outdoor Terrace and Secret Garden. The café serves coffee, brunch and a gelateria menu and the dog-friendly indoor space means the whole group can settle in together whatever the weather.

Open Wednesday to Sunday, Alexander's runs brunch service until late morning and continues with light bites and drinks through the afternoon and evening. It's the kind of place that works for a mid-morning coffee stop, a lazy weekend brunch or an early-evening drink when you're shopping or exploring the town centre.

You're a short walk from Skipton High Street and the canal, so it slots easily into a dog day out. The named Parlour area gives you a proper indoor table where your dog can supervise proceedings from under the chair and there's no need to leave anyone outside while you order.
