Helen Barnard, October 2024

Love that I can take my furbaby shopping with me


Ash Horwood, October 2024

It’s amazing being able to kill 2 birds with one stone, I can walk my dog to town and get the bits that I need rather than bringing the car, it’s an added bonus that there’s doggy hydration stations around too! I wish more places would become dog friendly!


Mia Lewis, October 2024

Frairs square caters for dogs and families, allowed to take your well behaved do into so many shops and sit at BBs for coffee and cake. I love taking my dogs there for a treat.


Jerrmy Hearn, October 2024

I like the staff and the amazing cakes and delicious coffee at Bakers and Baristas


Shalimar Rabulan, October 2024

Sean Hamill, October 2024

Great initiative allowing dogs in the centre.


Susan Drage, October 2024

It's always a welcoming centre, with lot's to do and places to sit. The restaurants welcome dogs even with dog treats, it's a good destination for my mum and dad to come with the dog for us to walk around.

My two labradoodles love a trip to Friar Square. They are always made a fuss about from the lovely people who work in the dog friendly shops to all the people doing their shopping. There are plenty of opportunities to stop for a treat and water bowls are about if they need to stop for a drink. It’s always nice to see other dogs in Friar Square too.


Rachael Webster, October 2024

It’s a lovely clean shopping centre and I love that I can take my dog in. Nice selection of shops and never too chaotic in there 😊


Nadine Elgumati, October 2024

Julie Mason, September 2024

Great to have a local indoor shopping centre that is dog friendly.


Mel Simpson, September 2024

Since Friars Square Shopping Centre has become dog friendly, it has opened up an opportunity to include my dog in many more aspects of my life. I hate leaving him at home and it’s fantastic being able to bring him with me to meet my friends for coffee!


Itzel Rivas, September 2024

Quite a few shops inside are also dog friendly, which is very helpful when running errands because I don’t have to leave my dog at home.


Lee Woolmore, September 2024

Never had such a nice experience taking a dog shopping. Could go in any shops and free water station for the pooch.


Mae Belle Paloma, September 2024

Water provided on the main entrance


Bethany Hillidge, September 2024

Lynne Foster, September 2024

My dog absolutely loves shopping there. The signs are clear so that everyone knows the rules. It has transformed Aylesbury as so many dogs everywhere!! Very well done 👏


Kellie Clark-hughes, September 2024

It's so nice to bring our dog with us when we come shopping


Heather Munro, September 2024

It my local shopping centre and provides a wealth of activities and shops as well as being dog friendly.


Matt Davies, September 2024

The initiative has been a brilliant thing. It positively encourages bringing your (well behaved!) dog with you, and this makes us far more likely to support the businesses.

As an example, we always come with our dog and visit BB Muffins, where we get a great welcome with water, treats and even puppicino's - along with lots of love!

The other shoppers are always really welcoming of our little friend, and it's lovely to see children and other members of the public enjoying the comedy of him scrabbling on the floor, desperate to get to "his" treat shop!

Friars Square is a brilliant place for us and differentiates from the other shopping areas in town because of this initiative.


Sandra Norris, September 2024

Because it is dog friendly and a place to relax and shop


Ami Bagnall, August 2024

Great accessibility, welcoming staff and easy to understand which shops take part in this brilliant idea!

I like shopping there because my dog is allowed. If we’re in town and it’s raining, we can pop in and have a coffee. It’s lovely


Sherrilyn Bateman, November 2023

Friars Sq Shopping Centre is welcoming to all and the inclusion of being dog friendly is so comforting to those with dogs.


Lucy Saberton, November 2023

Not only do I take my adult dog there, but I also use friars square shopping centre to train and socialise my puppy.


Jackie Adderley, November 2023

It's so rare that dogs are allowed into indoor shopping malls, and I love the paw prints outside the dog friendly shops. Very welcoming, and clear enough so you don't intrude where they aren't wanted


Gina Dunseith, October 2023

It's my local town, and makes my life so much easier going with my little pooch! She gets a walk with me! X

Since lockdown we don't like to leave our dog alone if we can help it, so it's nice to be able to pop to Friars Square, have a look around and stop for coffee and cake.


Deborah Chew, October 2023

I have a lovely bully who enjoys sitting in the cafe with me. BBs were very welcoming. Shame the whole town isn’t dog friendly as security escorted me and my dog out Hayley’s. I didn’t know they weren’t dog friendly too 😬. I do now !


Julie Ward, October 2023

It's genuinely dog friendly with a good open lay out.


Kristina Sukyte, October 2023

Place deserves some recognition. And it’s dog friendly! :)


Caroline Boyes, October 2023

I think it’s lovely you can bring your dog with you when you shop my 2 love it 🥰


Janine Anderson, October 2023

It is local and nice to know the dogs can come into the shops


Rome Harold, October 2023

Dogs don't belong in shopping centres (guard dogs okay yes) but I've seen puddles of dog urine around friars square shopping centre and it's disgusting. Don't don't need to be everywhere and not everyone likes them. This isn't a vote.


Leanne Farr, September 2023

Because they don't just say there dog friendly they mean it for example they have water bowls available. Been a while since dogs allowed and when shopping its the norm now and never been any issues. Allow you to go out with your dog and pick up few things if needed with your furry best friend


Sam Miller, September 2023

Very handy you can take dogs


Magda Wikiera, September 2023

Very friendly, clean shopping centre. Amazing that dogs can enter


Julie Angus, August 2023

Always welcoming. It is so good to know that our dog is welcomed. Even some water bowls around. That always pleases me.


Neil Hornblow, August 2023

Because it’s a dog, friendly shopping centre and the staff and people who work along the side of everyone a fantastic


Gina Dunseith, November 2022

We love local to Aylesbury. And just love the idea I don't have to leave Lloyd at home when fancying a coffee out


Sarah Sutton, September 2022

Dogs are a huge part of peoples lives and the more places you can take them the better for our mental health and the dogs socialisation. Friars square is a regular spot to meet with family and friends and now I can take pooch along too


Emily Shave, August 2022

Love the fact that friars square is now dog friendly makes it so much easier if you are passing by just walking the dog. And the shops are so welcoming and love seeing the little doggies


Kellie Blane, August 2022

So many shops welcome dogs great 😎


Mia Lewis, August 2022

Jackie James, August 2022

It’s my local shopping centre and great that I can take my dogs in sometimes


Jane White, August 2022

We seem to have accumulated three dogs over the last couple of years, and it’s a brilliant idea that we are now able to being them with us to pop into shops, instead of having to work out puppy care - and it’s also great for their socialisation! Thank you so much for doing this.
