The Quarry

The Quarry is a community pub in Cullercoats on the edge of Whitley Bay, where dogs are welcome inside the bar area. You can settle in for a pint with your dog beside you and the kitchen serves food throughout the week, so the whole table – human and canine – can stay put while you eat. The pub opens daily from midday, with food available Tuesday to Sunday.

Weekend lunchtimes and evenings are the busiest service windows, while Sunday lunch runs until 4pm. Monday sees the kitchen closed, though the bar remains open for drinks.

It's a handy coastal stop when you're exploring the area, offering straightforward pub atmosphere and the flexibility to bring your dog in from the weather. Bar-area access means no pavement shuffle and no splitting the group, just a proper pub visit with your four-legged supervisor in tow.
