A series of dog-friendly pub crawls have been launched across Yorkshire

A series of dog-friendly pub crawls have been launched across Yorkshire in honour of National Walk Your Dog Day, and they are ticking all of our boxes.

After all, what’s better than a long walk with man’s best friend followed by a good pie, a pint (or cuppa) and a roaring fire? We’ll wait.

It comes at the perfect time, with more people than ever searching for dog friendly restaurants and dog friendly pubs online.
Put together by website Eat Drink Meet using AllTrails, owners can easily discover new walks with dog-friendly Yorkshire pubs and restaurants en-route all over God’s own county.

Walkers can use the website tool to filter the pubs in their area and search specifically for dog friendly options.

Each route has been designed specifically for those looking for dog friendly pubs and restaurants that they can stop off at either mid or post walk.

Some of the new dog friendly routes include:

  1. Cow and Calf and Ilkley Moor Circular: 5.3km in distance, finishing up with a trip to the Cow and Calf pub.
  2. The Valley Gardens: at 5.3km this trail offers beautiful scenery of the English Heritage Grade II listed gardens. Finish at The Pine Marten.
  3. Roundhay Park – Waterloo Lake: at 2.7km in distance, this walk takes 44 minutes. Visit the Roundhay Fox.

Speaking on the new Yorkshire ‘puppy pub crawls’, creators Eat Drink Meet said: “National Walk Your Dog Day is the perfect chance to appreciate the companionship offered by our furry friends.

“Finding pubs that are dog-friendly can be tricky, but when it comes to making a day of it with your pup, particularly in a new location, it can sometimes feel like trial and error and can make an otherwise wholesome day quite stressful.  

“Our new tool that allows users to filter the pubs in their area (or an area they’re looking to visit) based on what they’re looking for is designed to help exactly this problem.

“We want our dog-loving and dog-owning customers to relax and enjoy time with their pups, knowing they don’t have to worry about finding a spot for lunch at the end – with Eat Drink Meet, they’ve already planned their stops.

“Because, really, there’s no better way to finish a walk than resting in a relaxing pub with a hot drink or refreshing lager.”
