That’s our way of flagging the places that go further — beyond “dogs allowed”, with a genuinely warm welcome for dogs inside.

Indoor Welcome Last Verified:

24 Jul 2026

The Old Engine House is a Greene King pub in central Torquay, welcoming dogs inside across both the bar and seating areas. Keep your dog on a lead indoors and out and staff occasionally offer treats for visiting dogs.

This friendly local serves classic pub food and has sports on the screens, making it a reliable stop whether you're after a quick pint or something to eat. Free off-street parking is available, which means you don't have to wrestle lead and shopping in a cramped space.

It's handily placed if you're mixing a day out between Torquay Beach and the town centre with a dog in tow. The combination of indoor dog welcome and nearby parking makes it a practical choice for dog owners who want to rest their feet without leaving the dog outside tied to a bench.
