A new-build Greene King Hungry Horse family pub on Riverside Way at Ickles, built on old steelworks land off the A6178 Sheffield Road and within sight of Magna and the Centenary Riverside Nature Reserve. Breakfast runs from ten to twelve and the menu carries on through the day, there is a big car park and a garden, and the nature reserve wetland paths next door are the reason to bring a dog here at all. Dogs are limited to outside, so this is a garden-table visit rather than a seat indoors. That restriction is recorded on CAMRA's WhatPub entry rather than published by the pub itself.
These are the parts only the business can add. We check the dog policy and stamp the date — photos, prices and their own words are theirs to put in, and this listing is waiting for them.
The fire, the snug, the water bowl by the door.
A few dishes and what they cost, so people arrive knowing.
Can the dog actually sleep here, and what does it cost.
Which rooms, which times, whether the whippet gets a biscuit.
Claiming fills every box above, and lets you reply to reviews when they open. £15 a month, no contract, and it never changes the verdict — the stamp stays ours.
Boston Park is Rotherham's first public park, just over eight hectares on the hill at the end of Boston Castle Grove off Moorgate, opened on 4 July 1876 to mark the centenary of American independence. The castle at the top is a hunting lodge of 1775 built for the Earl of Effingham and named for the Boston Tea Party, and it opens Tuesday, Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday from 11am to 3pm between April and September. The walk drops south out of the formal gardens into Canklow Woods, an ancient woodland of oak and birch on the valley side above the Rother, and climbs back up the far side. The park paths are surfaced; the woodland tracks are earth and get churned in winter.
Four and a half hectares of ponds, wetland and wildflower meadow bank beside the River Don on Sheffield Road, built on the site of the Seven Sisters steel foundry and doubling as part of Rotherham's flood alleviation scheme. Sheffield and Rotherham Wildlife Trust permits dogs but requires them to be kept on a lead. Twenty-three butterfly species have been recorded here along with damselflies and dragonflies, which is why the lead rule exists on a site this small. It is a short, flat, entirely urban circuit sandwiched between the A6178 and the river, useful as a leg-stretch rather than a day out.
The brewery's own tap bar inside Units 1 and 2 of Callum Court on the Gateway Industrial Estate at Parkgate, north of Rotherham, opened in 2022 with up to seven Chantry beers straight from the plant next door. There is a front garden area, parking on the estate and live bands most weekend evenings, though band nights carry an entry charge, so a quiet visit with a dog means an early or midweek session. It is within walking distance of the Parkgate tram-train stop and retail park, and the Rother Valley canal path is the nearest green route. CAMRA's WhatPub survey records the tap as dog friendly with no area excluded; the brewery does not publish a dog policy of its own.
Nobody has written one for The Riverside. If you have been with the dog, you would be the first — and the first review is the one everybody reads.
