Indoor Welcome Last Verified:

24 Jul 2026

Goat & Tricycle is a traditional real ale pub in central Bournemouth, just off The Triangle, where dogs are welcome inside. It's owned by Butcombe and appears on the official dog-friendly pubs list, so no one has to wait on the pavement while someone else heads in for a pint.

CAMRA notes the cask beer focus and regular food service, making it a proper pub stop for dog owners staying around the town centre, West Cliff hotels or the seafront side of town. The pub works well as a pre- or post-walk stop, given its handy location for the Lower Gardens town-to-beach walking route, West Cliff and Bournemouth beach area.

Nearby West Hill Car Park on West Hill Road offers 24-hour public parking with charges, useful when arriving by car. For dog owners planning a central Bournemouth day without splitting up the group, Goat & Tricycle offers indoor dog welcome, proper beer and food service in one spot.
