The Old Vic

The Old Vic St Andrews is a central pub and kitchen where dogs are welcome inside, making it an easy stop for town-centre visitors who'd rather not leave anyone tied up outside. The kitchen runs alongside the bar and your dog can settle in under the table while food and drinks are served.

Open Tuesday to Saturday from noon until 3am and Sunday noon to 1am, this is one of those rare spots where a late afternoon pint can stretch into a proper evening without uprooting the whole group. The venue sits just off the main streets, so it slots neatly into a day exploring St Andrews.

Whether you're finishing a coastal walk or fuelling up before the next leg, the indoor dog-friendly welcome means wet paws and post-sniff tiredness are perfectly manageable. No fuss, no outdoor exile, just a straightforward pub visit that works for everyone.
