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

The John Bull Inn is a long-running Alnwick pub known for a strong drinks line-up and a traditional feel. It’s a good one for a relaxed evening where you can settle in, take your time, and let the place do the heavy lifting with its character and atmosphere.
Dogs welcome inside, so you can make it a proper outing rather than a quick in-and-out. Expect that comforting “pub that knows what it’s doing” vibe, and the very real risk of accidentally staying longer than planned.
Good to know:
Water bowls available
Treats available
Doggy Menu available
Dog Policy:
Dogs welcome inside. Keep them on a lead and out of walkways, especially when it’s busy at the bar.
