Indoor Welcome Last Verified:

8 Aug 2026

The Gloucester Old Spot is a large, friendly pub on Gloucester Road in Bristol where dogs are welcome inside. Well-behaved pups can join you in the main bar and the beer garden and the team keep water bowls and treats behind the bar for four-legged visitors.

The pub serves food and drinks throughout the day, making it a useful stop whether you're combining it with a neighbourhood walk or meeting friends who'd rather not leave their dog at home. The relaxed atmosphere suits dogs who are happy to settle under the table while you eat.

Located just off Gloucester Road, it's best approached on foot or as part of a local outing. Street parking nearby can be limited, so factor in a short walk if you're driving. That straightforward access is the detail that turns a quick drink or meal into a genuine break for the whole group.
