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

The Boater in Bath is a riverside pub where dogs are welcome inside, so everyone can settle in together after a walk along the Avon. Expect classic pub food, a relaxed setting, and that calm, watery backdrop that makes a simple drink feel like a proper break.
The menu covers the usual pub favourites, and the riverside location pairs perfectly with a towpath stroll. It's the kind of place where you can pause, refuel, and watch the river go by without splitting up or leaving anyone on pavement duty.
Check their site for opening hours, seasonal changes, and current menus. On a wet day or after a muddy walk, it's a useful spot to dry off, regroup, and let hopeful noses settle under the table while you sort out what's next.
Good to know:
Water bowls available
Treats available

Dog Policy:
Dogs are welcome inside on short leads, so nobody needs to do the pavement shuffle. Just take extra care around the riverside entrances and exits.
