Rose & Crown

The Rose & Crown is a central Wells pub where dogs are welcome inside the bar and dining areas, so the whole group can settle in without negotiating pavement rotas. It's the sort of live, easy-access town local that suits a proper meal and a drink after exploring the cathedral quarter or finishing a walk nearby.

Food is served in the dog-friendly areas and the pub keeps a relaxed atmosphere that suits wet-paw days as well as planned stops. Opening hours run from lunchtime most days, with late finishes at weekends – useful when timing doesn't quite go to plan.

It's centrally located in Wells, which makes it a practical choice for visitors as well as locals. The official site and recent visitor feedback both describe a genuinely welcoming approach to dogs and the indoor access means nobody's stuck outside while everyone else orders.
