Indoor Welcome Last Verified:

Dolphin Inn in Hastings is a proper pub in the heart of the Old Town where dogs are very welcome and often rewarded with treats at the bar. It's the kind of place where your dog will assume the treats are an official tax for entering, and nobody will correct them.

Ideal for a relaxed drink with a friendly atmosphere and a bit of local life, it's a solid choice when you want a pint without the pavement-waiting shuffle. Dogs can settle in while you enjoy the pub's easy-going vibe, proper pub feel and home-cooked food served daily. Kitchen hours run Monday to Sunday 12pm-4pm, with extended evening service on Monday (fish and chip night, 6pm-9pm) and Friday (full menu, 6pm-9pm).

A warm, dog-friendly spot that keeps paws and people together, whether you're stopping in for one or staying for the evening. Your dog gets treats, you get a drink, and everyone leaves happy.

Dog Policy:

Dogs are welcome inside, so nobody needs to do the pavement-waiting shuffle. Please keep dogs on a lead and off the seating.
