The King Charles Inn is a historic quayside pub in the heart of Poole where dogs are welcome inside, including in the snug where food is served. It's a proper old-fashioned pub with a warm welcome for visiting dogs and their people, making it an easy stop for those exploring Poole Quay and the surrounding Thames Street area.

Water bowls are provided and the snug offers a comfortable spot to settle in with your dog while you eat. The pub serves food throughout the day, so whether you're stopping for lunch or dinner, everyone's looked after.

Open Monday to Friday 12pm–11pm, Saturday 12pm–midnight and Sunday 12pm–10pm, the King Charles Inn is a useful central base when you're out with the dog in Poole. No on-site parking, but the Quay location makes it accessible for walkers and those exploring the town on foot.
