Karen's Country Cafe

Karen's Country Cafe is a friendly dog-welcoming cafe just off the A16 near Stamford, popular with walkers and road-trippers who need a proper stop without leaving anyone in the car.

Dogs are welcome inside the cafe, so the whole group can settle in for breakfast, lunch or a full roast while your dog supervises proceedings from under the table. The cafe is open Tuesday to Sunday from 9am to 4pm, with a relaxed, laid-back feel that suits muddy boots and tangled leads as much as clean trainers. It's the sort of place where a mid-morning coffee or a weekend lunch works equally well and there's no fuss about having your dog alongside you at the table.

Karen's Country Cafe sits in the Tallington area, making it a handy pitstop for Stamford visitors heading south or anyone exploring the surrounding Lincolnshire lanes with the dog in tow.
