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

The Mermaid Inn is a classic Cornish pub in Newquay with a warm welcome and the kind of comfort that suits coastal days. Dogs are welcome inside, which makes it an easy yes for dog owners exploring the area. It's ideal when you want somewhere straightforward to sit down, refuel, and let the wind stop shouting at you for a bit.
Expect a relaxed atmosphere, good drinks, and the familiar rhythm of a pub that knows how to look after people who've arrived hungry and slightly windswept. Keep the etiquette pub-perfect: paws down, no begging, and no table patrol for crumbs. If it's busy, keep leads tucked in so staff can move safely.
Outdoors, do the good-owner basics too. Pick up after your dog and be thoughtful with greetings. It's the kind of place that works for a quick pint or a longer sit-down after a blustery walk along the coast.

Dog Policy:
Dogs are welcome inside, so nobody needs to do the pavement-waiting shuffle. Classic pub manners only: no plate-licking, no roaming for compliments, and keep the lead out of walkways when it's busy.
