The Kents is a proper pub in central Torquay, with a first-come, first-served bar area where dogs are welcome inside on a lead. The restaurant area is off-limits for pets, but the bar is where the real action is—and it's the place to bring yours. It's an easy walk from Torquay town centre and the harbourside, with full pub hours and straightforward visitor access.

The dog-friendly bar area makes it simple to pop in without leaving your dog outside or rearranging your day. You'll find the usual pub setup: drinks, food and the low-key vibe that suits a dog-owner's schedule. Parking is available on the surrounding roads.

Whether you're exploring Torquay's attractions nearby or just want a reliable local where your dog can sit at your feet, The Kents delivers without fuss. It's the sort of place where a wet dog or a tangled lead won't raise an eyebrow.
