The Leopard

The Leopard is a compact Norwich pub on Leopold Road, just over a mile from the city centre in the NR3 neighbourhood. Dogs are welcome inside, including in the dining area, so you can keep your lead-tangled crew together while you settle in with good beer and proper pub food.

The atmosphere is cosy and welcoming, the kind of local where regulars and visitors mix easily and dogs are treated as part of the furniture. Food is served throughout the week and the beer range is strong enough to justify the walk from town or a quick detour on the way to the riverside routes.

The Leopard opens daily from lunchtime, with slightly later starts Monday to Friday. Dogs must be kept on leads and supervised under the table, which is straightforward pub etiquette and keeps everyone happy when the food arrives.
