ZOOM OUT TO EXPLORE

Indoor Welcome Last Verified:

20 Oct 2026

The Floating Bridge is a riverside pub in Dartmouth where dogs are welcome inside and out. It sits by the Higher Ferry, close to the town centre and handy for a pint after a riverside wander or ferry-side explore.

Inside you'll find a traditional pub setting with good pub food and a warm welcome for four-legged visitors. It's a proper stop where you can keep your dog with you rather than leaving them tied outside and the relaxed atmosphere suits muddy-paw days as much as lazy riverside afternoons.

The location makes it an easy choice if you're exploring Dartmouth on foot with your dog. Whether you're breaking up a walk along the water or stopping in after the ferry crossing, it's the sort of practical, dog-friendly pub that takes the stress out of planning your day around the dog.
