The Stags Head is a traditional pub in the heart of Dunster village, serving food and drink with a fireplace atmosphere and a genuine welcome for dogs inside. It's handy for visitors exploring Dunster Castle or taking a break from village walks and the indoor tables make it easy to keep everyone together when the weather turns.

Dogs are welcome inside the pub, including in the dining areas when food is served. The fire makes a natural settling spot and table supervision is comfortably managed from inside. That straightforward access is the detail that turns a quick drink or meal into a genuine break for the whole group.

Opening hours run from afternoon to late evening most days, with Saturday opening at midday. The kitchen serves food Thursday to Saturday evenings, plus Saturday lunchtimes, so timing a stop with a meal needs a quick check of the current schedule.
