Days Out Are For Dogs Too

Deacon's House Cafe is a well-loved spot on Edinburgh's Royal Mile serving coffee, tea and lunch to a steady mix of sightseers and locals.
Dogs welcome inside and out, with seating at both tables indoors and in the open air—useful if you need a break from the bustle without abandoning your dog to a pavement tie-up. The cafe sits at a natural halfway point between the Castle end of the Mile and the Old Town core, making it a handy stop when you're doing the rounds of the historic stretch. Best reached on foot from the Mile itself; nearby parking is limited, so walking in works best for most visitors.
A straightforward place to sit down, settle your dog and take five from sightseeing without fuss or ceremony. That straightforward access is the detail that turns a quick drink or meal into a genuine break for the whole group.
