There’s a few changes happening in the kitchen at The Dog House, and we’re pretty excited about what’s to come!

We’re introducing some new dishes, moving to a more traditional structure, with the menu continuing to evolve over the coming weeks.

The idea is simple, familiar pub food, with a little more thought and creativity and our own Dog House twist.

The Dog House burger has already gone down a storm, and we’ll be adding more traditional favourites as we go, so there’ll be plenty of familiar dishes alongside some new things to try.

And for our Sunday Roast regulars - don’t panic!!
Our popular Sunday Roast is staying exactly as it is. The same much loved, sharing style feast with all the trimmings!

Take a look at our current menu below, and keep your eyes peeled on our socials for more of what’s to come!

Or even better.. book a table and see for yourself!

A little update from The Dog House

After two and a half years of fire cooking at The Dog House, we’ve decided it’s time for an exciting new chapter.

It’s been quite a journey, and we’re now moving towards a more focused, elevated pub menu that reflects who we are at heart: a proper locals’ pub.

The Dog House is about our community, our regulars, the people who live nearby, the pints, the catch ups and having somewhere that feels like yours. We want our food to reflect that too. Quality, generous and approachable pub food, done properly and made for the place we’ve built.

Our values around food, quality and provenance aren’t changing. We’ll always care about where our ingredients come from and what we put on your plate, just in a way that feels right for The Dog House.

Next week we’ll have altered opening times while we carry out our kitchen refurb and give our team a well earned break.

Wednesday & Thursday: Closed
Friday: Open from 5pm for drinks & bar snacks
Saturday: 12pm to 10pm for drinks & bar snacks
Sunday: 12pm to 6pm for drinks & bar snacks

Over the next couple of weeks, we’ll be introducing the new menu, so expect a slightly reduced offering while we get everything up and running.

We’re really excited about what’s ahead and, as always, incredibly grateful for your support.

Here’s to the next chapter and keeping The Dog House exactly what it should be: your local
