Glenshesk Bar is a traditional pub on Castle Street in the heart of Ballycastle, where dogs are welcome inside. That straightforward access is the detail that turns a quick drink or meal into a genuine break for the whole group.

It's a straightforward, friendly spot for a drink when you're exploring the town centre with your four-legged companion and the easy-going atmosphere suits a pause between coastal walks or errands. The bar keeps welcoming hours throughout the week, open Monday to Saturday from 11:30am until 1am and Sunday from 12:30pm to 10pm. Dogs are accepted at your feet inside, making it a practical choice when the weather turns or you need a quick stop without leaving anyone tied up outside.

Glenshesk Bar sits right in the central visitor strip, so it's handy for a pint or a soft drink when you're out and about with your dog.
