The Linden Tree

The Linden Tree is a dog-friendly pub on Bristol Road in Gloucester, with dogs welcome inside and a friendly local feel. It’s a community-style pub with rooms, well placed for Gloucester Quays, Gloucester Docks and the Peel Centre, so it works well for an easy stop on the way in or out of the city.

Inside, it leans into classic pub comfort: traditional food, real ales, a relaxed atmosphere and the kind of steady local rhythm that suits family meals, group bookings, casual drinks or a Sunday carvery plan. There’s also a skittle alley and function space, giving it that proper “something always going on” pub energy.

For dog owners, The Linden Tree keeps the welcome very clear. Dogs are welcome inside, and there’s even a dedicated dog station with water, bowls, treats, towels, blankets and tennis balls. They also have a dog menu available, with options including sausage, beef burger, chicken pieces, scrambled egg and carrot sticks.

That puts it firmly beyond a basic “dogs allowed” pub. It’s a proper indoor dog-friendly Gloucester stop where dogs are genuinely thought about, not just squeezed into the plan.
