Indoor Welcome Last Verified:

The Black Hat is a busy central pub in Ilkley, right in the heart of town and a few minutes' walk from the station. Dogs are welcome inside the bar and restaurant downstairs, so you can settle in together whether you're stopping for a pint or staying for a meal.

The pub serves food and drinks throughout the week and the indoor dining area is dog-friendly. Your table supervisor can stay on duty while you eat, making it an easy choice for lunch, dinner or a break after exploring the town centre.

It's open Monday to Thursday 11am–11pm, Friday and Saturday 11am–midnight and Sunday 11am–10pm. There's no venue-owned parking, but the location is ideal if you're wandering Ilkley on foot with your dog. That straightforward access is the detail that turns a quick drink or meal into a genuine break for the whole group.
