The Hare & Hounds

The Hare & Hounds is a strong shout near Robin Hood's Bay for dog owners wanting that classic post-walk pub feeling without any unnecessary fuss. Set in Hawsker, dogs are welcome in the bar, so nobody needs to do the pavement-waiting shuffle after coastal paths and beach miles.

The setting feels relaxed and friendly, with a beer garden for brighter days and the kind of welcoming pub atmosphere that suits muddy paws and hungry people perfectly well. Food is served daily with lunch and dinner sessions, plus all-day service on Fridays and Saturdays. It makes an ideal stop for lunch, dinner or a well-earned drink after the sort of walk where the dog still has energy but the humans absolutely do not.

For visitors exploring the wider Robin Hood's Bay area with a dog, it adds that dependable pub comfort every seaside trip secretly needs. Very much a sit down, refuel, and let the dog judge everyone's chips sort of place.
