That’s our way of flagging the places that go further — beyond “dogs allowed”, with a genuinely warm welcome for dogs inside.

The Fishing Boat is a traditional seaside pub on High Street in East Runton, just over a mile from Cromer centre. Dogs are welcome inside, making it a handy stop for coastal walkers and visitors exploring North Norfolk with their four-legs in tow.

Inside you'll find live sports, regular pub quizzes and bingo, plus the sort of relaxed atmosphere that works when you've got sandy paws and a dog who's earned a rest. There's also a large garden, useful when the weather plays fair or your dog prefers a sniff about outdoors.

Free parking is available on site, which takes the usual juggling of lead, bags and optimism out of the arrival. The pub sits a short walk from East Runton beach, so it's well placed for a post-walk pint or bite when keeping everyone together matters more than splitting up to find somewhere that'll have you both.

Good to know:

Water bowls available

Doggy Menu available

Dog Policy:

Dogs are welcome inside The Fishing Boat. They're also welcome in the large garden.
