The Pier Tavern

The Pier Tavern is a classic “seaside pint and a breather” stop that fits perfectly into a dog-friendly day out. You do the harbour wander, you admire the view, you negotiate with your dog about not licking salt off everything, and then you settle in somewhere that feels lively but easy. Expect a relaxed atmosphere, good drinks, and that satisfying feeling of being right in the middle of coastal life. It’s ideal for a casual lunch, an afternoon pause, or a quick drink before you head back out for another round of exploring. Dogs love the pier energy: lots to watch, lots to sniff, and plenty of chances to practise calm sitting while you people-watch. Your dog will still try to make friends with every passing pair of shoes.
