The Royal Oak

LA22 9BU

In the bar In the dining room Water bowls Treats

A Greene King house on Church Street in the middle of Ambleside, open 11am to 11pm with food to 9pm, so it covers the gap when the cafes have shut and the restaurants have not opened. The chain publishes a full dog page for this pub: dogs are welcome inside, there is a bowl of water on request and treats behind the bar. The house rules are worth reading before you go, because they require a lead indoors as well as out and no dogs on the furniture. There is a beer garden at the back.

The Unicorn

LA22 9DT

VERIFIED 30 JUL 2026 VIEW ›

A small former coaching inn up North Road, off the main drag and quieter for it, run under Robinsons of Stockport. The brewery's own page for the pub lists dog friendly among its facilities. It is a drinkers' pub of two low rooms rather than a dining house, open 1pm to 10pm daily, and it is the closest pub to the Sweden Bridge and Wansfell paths out of the north end of town. Space is tight, so a large dog will need placing carefully.

In the bar

The Wateredge Inn

LA22 0EP

In the bar In the dining room Water bowls Treats

A waterside inn at Waterhead with lawns running down to the head of Windermere, which is the point of it for most dogs. Dogs use the designated dog-friendly areas of the bar and restaurant, with water bowls and treats provided, and can stay in the dog-friendly bedrooms for a nightly supplement.
