Mermaid Street Café

Mermaid Street Café is a central Rye breakfast and lunch stop tucked beneath the Old Borough Arms, just off the Strand near Mermaid Street. Dogs are welcome inside throughout the day, so you can bring them along for breakfast, brunch or a slice of cake without leaving anyone outside.

The café serves food daily from 9am to 5pm, covering everything from morning coffee to a proper sit-down lunch. The menu keeps things simple and satisfying and the indoor tables mean wet paws and sudden showers don't derail your plans.

It's an easy, reliable spot when you're exploring the old town and need somewhere dog-friendly that doesn't require a detour. Keep leads on and your dog under control and settle in for as long as the cake lasts.
