The Crown Inn

The Crown Inn is a traditional village pub in Great Casterton, just outside Stamford, serving proper meals and welcoming dogs inside at the table. It's a handy stop if you're heading in or out of town with your four-legged companion and need somewhere warm and dog-friendly to sit down together.

Dogs are welcome inside during mealtimes and can settle under the table while you eat. Food is served Wednesday to Saturday lunchtimes and evenings and Sunday lunchtimes, with a solid pub menu and a relaxed atmosphere that doesn't make you feel like you're smuggling contraband under the furniture.

The Crown is open from 11am most days, with slightly later opening on Sundays. It's the sort of place that works for a planned meal or an impromptu pint and the fact your dog can join you inside makes it genuinely useful for anyone whose day revolves around keeping the whole group together.
