Indoor Welcome Last Verified:

The Ship Inn is a traditional pub in Richmond where dogs are welcome inside. You'll find it just a short stroll from the town centre, making it a handy spot to settle in with your dog after exploring the Yorkshire market town or the riverside paths nearby.

The pub opens from mid-afternoon on weekdays and from lunchtime at weekends, with late hours on Fridays and Saturdays. It's the kind of place where you and your dog can share a table without anyone eyeing the door and the whole group can relax under one roof.

Dogs welcome inside, so there's no need to draw straws for pavement duty or leave someone outside holding the lead. It's a straightforward, friendly welcome for dogs and their people. That straightforward access is the detail that turns a quick drink or meal into a genuine break for the whole group.
