Indoor Welcome Last Verified:

The Shepherd's Rest in Alnwick is a family-friendly pub where dogs are welcome inside in designated areas, so nobody needs to do the pavement shuffle while the humans grab a pint or settle in for the quiz.

There's food served throughout the week, Sky Sports and BT Sports for match days, a Monday quiz, karaoke, and WiFi for anyone catching up between rounds. The venue also offers bed and breakfast accommodation plus a caravan site, making it a useful base for a longer stay in Northumberland with a dog in tow.

Well-behaved dogs are welcome on leads in the pub's dog-friendly spaces, and if you're booking a room it's worth checking suitability before arrival so everyone knows the plan.

Good to know:

Water bowls available

Free treats available

Doggy menu available

Dog Policy:

Dogs are welcome inside in designated areas on a lead, so paws and people can stay together. If you're booking a room, check dog-friendly suitability before arrival.
