List of dog-friendly pubs in Newcastle & across the Hunter


Your doggo is welcome at the Criterion Hotel, Carrington

You're thirsty. You're friends are waiting. You grab your keys and are about to lock the door behind you when.... Your dog gives you 'that' face.


If you have a dog, you know the face we're talking about. Droopy head and those sad puppy dog eyes.


It's the worst, BUT... We have a solution!
