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

Indoor Welcome Last Verified:

9 Aug 2026

The Hairy Dog is a welcoming pub in the centre of Minehead, serving drinks, food and live sport throughout the week. Dogs are welcome inside the bar, so the whole crew can settle in for a pint, a bite and the match without leaving anyone in the car.

The pub opens Monday to Thursday from 11am to 11pm, Friday and Saturday from 10am to midnight and Sunday from midday to 11pm. Food is served in the dog-friendly bar, meaning you can eat together while your dog supervises proceedings from under the table.

It's a handy stop for seafront walks, town-centre errands or simply ducking out of the rain with leads still dripping. The pub is right in the heart of Minehead, making it easy to combine a visit with a wander along the promenade or a nose around the shops.

Dog Policy:
