The Old Bell is a historic Rye pub in the heart of town where dogs are welcome inside, so everyone can settle in together at the bar or over a meal. The kitchen serves food daily and your table supervisor can stay put while plates arrive. It's the sort of straightforward central stop that works whether you're here for a quick pint or a longer sit-down, with enough elbow room for a lead and a bag at your feet.
The pub has a cosy, traditional feel and a solid reputation with dog owners passing through Rye. The Old Bell opens Monday to Thursday from midday until 10pm, Friday and Saturday from 11:30am until 11pm and Sunday from 11:30am until 9pm.
The kitchen runs Monday to Saturday from noon until 9pm and Sunday until 8pm. Handy, central and dog-friendly without fuss.
