The Westgate

The Westgate is a traditional pub on Guildhall Street in the heart of Bury St Edmunds, serving drinks and food in a central spot that's handy for a quick visitor stop with your dog. That simple inclusion is especially useful when the weather turns or the day needs a proper sit-down pause.

Dogs are welcome inside the bar, so you can settle in for a pint or pub lunch together without leaving anyone tied up outside. Your usual table supervisor stays on duty throughout. That straightforward access is the detail that turns a quick drink or meal into a genuine break for the whole group.

Open from lunchtime on Friday to Sunday and from early afternoon the rest of the week, it's a straightforward, dog-friendly Greene King pub close to the town centre — useful for breaking up a bit of shopping or sightseeing with a sit-down and something to eat.
