Indoor Welcome Last Verified:

25 Aug 2026

The Southport Coaster is a central Lord Street pub where dogs are welcome inside, making it a straightforward stop for a drink without the usual pavement duty shuffle. It's a lively spot with walk-in appeal and a reputation for a friendly atmosphere.

CAMRA marks it as dog friendly and recent visitors confirm dogs are welcomed inside the bar. Open Monday to Wednesday 10am–11pm, Thursday 9am–11pm, Friday and Saturday 10am–1am and Sunday 11am–11pm. That straightforward access is the detail that turns a quick drink or meal into a genuine break for the whole group.

The extended weekend hours are particularly useful if your dog-walk schedule doesn't align neatly with conventional pub times. No need to split the group or hover outside while someone queues for drinks. That simple inclusion is especially useful when the weather turns or the day needs a proper sit-down pause.

Good to know:

Dog Policy:

Dogs are welcome inside, so nobody needs to do the pavement-waiting shuffle while the rest of the group gets a drink.
