Reviving an old thread as I couldn't find a newer one and have recently acquired a dog. I'm looking for somewhere local for a work lunch but generally would be good to know what establishments since this thread was originally posted are OK with dogs. Franklins looks like a yes, what about the Palmerston which has changed management/ownership? 

Thanks in advance for doggy intel!

Split this into a new 2024 topic. The posts in the old thread were from 2016 and now factually incorrect.

Leave your dog at home, please. It’s not going to enjoy it, at best it’ll endure it. If you’re blind, then of course bring your dog to the pub/cafe/office and expect lots of good wishes and respect, maybe even a treat for Rover, but if not, please don’t (or sit outside). Not everyone likes dogs and some are thoroughly frightened or allergic and to ignore this is solipsistic and self-centered. (I like dogs a lot but only in the home or the park.)

ED is super dog friendly in my experience. All the pubs are dog friendly, as is Brunos and Drop wine bar, plus Oru and pretty much all the coffee shops. In terms of restaurants nearby(ish), Peckham Cellars and Kudu are both super welcoming to dogs. It's great to take your dog out with you for drinks/food as it really helps to socialise them, plus it really adds to the atmosphere in some places. Enjoy!

I'm surprised no one has mentioned the wonderful Gowlett so far.  Very dog friendly and usually a water bowl out for them.  Our dog loves going there because it means pizza crusts!  

It's good to see that a number of shops are dog friendly too as it is no longer safe/acceptable to leave your dog tied up outside.  It always feels frustrating when you pass a place where you would like to pick up some bread or milk, yet you have to go home with the dog first.  

Very surprised at the comment that dogs are not welcome in other countries as I've not seen this anywhere apart from places that have an issue with strays, which is a completely different matter.  Dogs paws have walked on exactly the same streets as people's shoes, so why do they present a hygiene issue?

Thanks for all the tips. I don't drink anymore so am very rarely in pubs but it's good to know where I can take him with me when I'm doing errands. He is usually fine tied up outside a shop for a short while anyway. Once he's used to staying home alone, I won't need to take him everywhere with me. As he's a rescue racing dog, he's glued to my side as he's convinced I'll leave him and not come back.

      Do you feel unsafe in London?

      By Eats Dulwich · Posted

      I sometimes don't feel as comfortable as I did but it's not because I'm older, it's because I'm sober. Staggering home when I was younger I always felt I like a had a cloak of invisibility around me. And a magic compass - not even sure how I found my way home some nights.

      Do you feel unsafe in London?

      By NewWave · Posted

      I'm London born and bred and have always considered myself streetwise having grown up in Notting hill (pre getrification) and I lived on the border of Harlesden (kensal green) in the 90's  when it was pretty sketchy round there .and I spent much of the 80's and early 90's in downtown New York.. I would walk everywhere at all hours of the day and night and never felt particularly uneasy largely because I was always mindful of my surroundings and walked with 'purpose'. I don't know wether its because I'm now so much older but I don't feel as comfortable as I used to walking round London. Today I was in the West end and I made sure to carry my bag on the opposite arm to that facing the kerb and felt uneasy when I saw people wizzing around on limebikes or scooters close to the kerb..I never got my phone out at all...I never used to feel like this but just recently I've had friends witness phone and bag snatching in central london in broad daylight..apparently it happened so fast in both instances there was nothing anyone could do to help..One phone snatching was during the tube strike 7.30am two guys on bikes grabbed a mans phone..My friend took the victim to a nearby hotel to sit down and recover the hotel said due to the tube strike they had witnessed many duo's of youth out very early on bikes aware that there were more pedestrians around at that time with their phones out trying for Ubers or looking at directions. I would'nt say I feel 'unsafe' I just feel more aware of being a possible target for crime than formerly. I don't know if this is due to being older or due to reading the press.

      The fact everyone has had a CCTV camera in their pockets for the last 15+ years has done a huge amount to prevent and mitigate random drunken violence.  Thugs can't get away with what they used to anymore.
