Here we bring you the very best dog friendly restaurants in London, where the staff will be just as excited to see you as your fluffy companion. From glamorous hotels to cosy neighbourhood spots, these restaurants give dogs the luxury treatment they deserve – from puppaccinos to afternoon tea and pawsecco. Fear not: humans are well-fed too.

Dog Friendly Restaurants To Visit In London In 2025

The Italian Greyhound, Marylebone

Perched on the corner of Seymour Street, The Italian Greyhound is one of London’s most delicious Italian restaurants. Dogs are not just allowed here, but celebrated, with water, dog bowls and complimentary treats sure to keep them happy. Owners, meanwhile, can enjoy dishes like cacio e pepe, paccheri with lamb ragu, and dry-aged sirloin, alongside classic cocktails.

Pawsitive Cafe, Notting Hill

Pawsitive Cafe in Notting Hill is a truly unique and uplifting experience for dog lovers and foodies alike. Owner Alicia’s mission to create a space for mental wellbeing and positivity has resulted in a cafe that is not only stylish and fun but also educational and therapeutic. The dog-friendly menus include their very own afternoon tea set, a custom-built dog play area, and seasonal therapeutic activities that make this cafe a must-visit for both dogs and their owners. The fusion of English and Malaysian cuisine offers an indulgent and playful dining experience, with dishes like the Nasi Lemak (Malaysia’s national dish) and Burgerdict (a play on a classic beef burger and Eggs Benedict). The attention to detail in the decor, with feng shui and colour therapy in mind, creates a harmonious and uplifting environment that makes it the perfect place to spend your afternoon. Celebrating your pup’s birthday? The team can whizz up a homemade cake (and sing happy birthday).

The Greenhouses, Marylebone

Looking to host a private event where your dog can join the fun? Check out The Greenhouses in Marylebone, a collection of pretty private dining spaces offering Mediterranean-inspired fare amid pretty floral surroundings. They’re outdoors (with heating in winter, and air conditioning in summer) which means they’re well-suited to four-legged friends.

Great Scotland Yard Hotel, Westminster

Treat your pup to afternoon tea at Great Scotland Yard, the London hotel housed in one of the city’s most historic buildings. Taking place in The Parlour, the experience has been created in partnership with Talula Eats, and includes a fresh doggie bowl with seasonal meat, mixed veggies and brown rice, a slice of homemade doggie cake and ‘dogestive biscuits’ served with a ‘pupcake’.

40 Dean Street, Soho

Combine your love of pasta and pooches with a trip to Soho‘s cosy Italian eatery 40 Dean Street. The buzzing family-run restaurant has been satisfying Italian-esque taste buds across London for over 17 years, serving up the likes of creamy burrata and seafood linguine whilst welcoming pups to join in with the indulgent fun. For those (and we mean humans) who adore truffle, the gnocchi with porcini mushrooms and smoked mozzarella is a must, infused with copious amounts of delicious truffle oil, perfect for dipping bread into. But the pièce de résistance has to be the pistachio tiramisu – light and airy, yet simultaneously indulgent with layer after layer of ladyfingers, chocolate, coffee and cream, with glorious hints of pistachio. The pistachio might not be for pups, but they will be given plenty of water and attention from the incredibly warm staff.

Smith & Whistle, Piccadilly

A few years ago Smith & Whistle launched the first ever Dogtail menu, so you can enjoy a few tipples alongside your four-legged friend. Treat your dog to a Hound’s Hops, a special ‘beer’ for dogs, or the Posh Pooch, a herbal infusion made with ginseng, elderflower, nettle and limeflower. The bar’s ideal location opposite picturesque Green Park means you can enjoy a post-drink stroll too.

Oh, and humans can eat here too – think traditional lunch brunch, salads, paninis and smoothies. Perched beside Bushy Park, it’s perfectly placed for a dog walk afterwards.
