Days Out Are For Dogs Too
Indoor Welcome Last Verified:

The Crown is a coaching inn in central Southwold with a proper dog-friendly back bar where your dog is genuinely welcome. This isn't a grudging tolerance—the venue's owners actively appreciate four-legged visitors and the back bar offers level access and a relaxed atmosphere for you and your pup to settle in together.
Located at the heart of Southwold's town centre, The Crown puts you within easy reach of the high street, beach walks and all the practical logistics you need to keep your dog comfortable during a day out. The coaching inn's central position means you're not tucking your dog into some edge-of-town spot.
Dogs can come inside to the back bar area, making this a proper shelter option on wet days or when your dog needs a break from the buzz of the seafront. The level access from the street removes the fuss of managing steps or narrow passages with a lead and bag in hand.
