The Hest Bank

The Hest Bank is a traditional village pub beside the Lancaster Canal, a few miles north of Lancaster. Dogs are welcome inside, making it a useful refreshment stop after canal towpath walks or when exploring the Hest Bank area with your four-paws.

The pub offers a relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere where you and your dog can settle in together. It's the sort of spot where muddy paws and post-walk appetites are understood and no one minds a lead tucked under the table.

Whether you're planning a canal-side walk or simply need a dog-friendly base in the Lancaster area, The Hest Bank makes a practical and welcoming stop. Handy for the towpath and genuinely happy to see dogs at the bar.
