The Ship Inn is a classic dog-friendly pub right in the heart of Lyme Regis, serving food and drinks with a welcoming atmosphere for all visitors, including those with dogs. Dogs are welcome inside, making it easy to grab a pint or bite without leaving your companion at the door. The old-town location puts you within easy reach of the seafront and town-centre wandering.

Beyond the bar, there's a skittle alley for a bit of fun between rounds. It's the kind of spot where you can settle in for a proper session without anyone fussing about a lead under the table or a dog bed in the corner.

Handy for a pre-walk drink or a way to spend a wet afternoon when the weather turns. The harbour approach is just a stroll away and the pub sits in a part of town where dogs and their people feel at home.
