# Dog-friendly restaurants in Newcastle

Last checked: 16 September 2026.

## City centre and Quayside

Three meal choices close to the Monument and river, where the indoor, bar-table and outdoor-only dog rules differ materially.

### Fat Hippo Newcastle

**Dining:** Burger restaurant

**Best for:** A central burger meal near Grey Street when you can call ahead for one of the selected bar tables.

**Dog rule:** Well-behaved dogs are welcome at selected dog-friendly bar tables, at management discretion. Contact the branch to make sure an appropriate table is available.

**Summary:** Underground city-centre burger restaurant serving burgers, sides and plant-based options.

**Practical:** Walk-ins are accepted, but the operator recommends booking for a specific time. The restaurant is down a flight of stairs in a listed bank vault.

### The Broad Chare

**Dining:** British pub

**Best for:** A Quayside pub meal from the bar-food menu, if you are content with the dog-eligible bar or snug rather than the upstairs dining room.

**Summary:** A Quayside pub with a separate bar-food menu of pub dishes alongside snacks.

**Practical:** Check which dog-eligible space can take your party before booking. The operator separately publishes bar-food, dining-room and snack hours, and Sunday dinner is not served.
