The Railway

The Railway is a welcoming pub in central Skipton where dogs are welcome inside the bar area. You'll find all the usual pub staples – local ales, hearty food and a friendly atmosphere – with the bonus that your dog can settle in beside you while you eat.

The kitchen serves lunch and dinner Tuesday to Saturday, plus all-day Sunday roasts and Monday evening plates. It's handy for the station and town centre, so it works well if you're arriving on foot or making Skipton your base for exploring the Dales.

Dogs are welcome in the bar but not in the separate restaurant area, which means you can plan your visit knowing exactly where you'll be sitting. The pub opens from early afternoon on Monday and at lunchtime the rest of the week, so there's plenty of scope for a post-walk pint or a proper sit-down meal without leaving anyone tied up outside.
