Urban Garden

Urban Garden is a dog-friendly café and restaurant-bar in central Bournemouth, set by Exeter Crescent beside the Lower Gardens. Dogs are welcome inside the bar and restaurant as well as on the terrace, so it is a useful stop when a seafront wander turns into a search for somewhere indoors with chairs, drinks and fewer lead-based logistics.

It suits visitors who want a relaxed meal, coffee or drinks-only stop close to the town centre and beachfront rather than a traditional pub. The location works before or after the gardens, beach or mini golf, especially when the dog has already inspected every interesting corner.

Water bowls are available, which is always appreciated the moment a human sits down with something nice. Parking is town-centre rather than doorstep-simple, with paid spaces nearby on Exeter Park Road and limited private parking available at some evenings and weekends.
