Dolium

Dolium is a cosy wine bar in Kingswear where dogs are welcome inside alongside their owners. Just across the river from Dartmouth, it offers a bar-led drinking space with a tapas menu and a neighbourhood feel that suits a post-walk refuel or a rainy-afternoon stop.

The emphasis is on wine and relaxed small plates, making it an easy choice when you want something a little different from the usual pub pint. The compact setting keeps things simple and the river-view location means it pairs naturally with a Dartmouth ferry trip or a wander along the Kingswear waterfront.

Street parking nearby is limited, but the ferry crossing from Dartmouth makes access straightforward if you're exploring both sides of the estuary. It's a useful dog-friendly option when you need shelter, a glass of something good and a table that doesn't involve leaving anyone outside.
