The Crow

The Crow is a compact city-centre pub on Friar Lane, a short walk from Nottingham Castle and the heart of the old town.

Dogs are welcome inside, so you can settle in for a pint with the lead under the table and the usual supervising gaze trained on your crisps. Food is served throughout the week and your dog can stay beside you while you eat. The pub opens from 1pm on Mondays and midday or earlier Thursday through Sunday, making it a useful refuelling stop after a castle wander or before a city-centre amble.

It's the kind of straightforward, no-fuss pub that makes city visits with a dog feel less like a logistical puzzle and more like an actual afternoon out.
