Always so welcoming with everything you could need for your pup


Emma Ceresa, September 2024

My wee dog absolutely loves going to the Old Gatehouse! The staff are always friendly and welcoming, with treats always on offer, bowls of water and doggie blankets. The icing on the cake for her is their doggy menu. She rates it 10/10!

Our favourite dog friendly diner. Staff always pleasant, nice atmosphere. Thor knows his way here and enjoys his rest after his walk.


Caitlin Luchini, September 2024

They are so friendly and accommodating to our Standard Poodle, Lucca. The added bonus is the dog menu! Love the area that is for dog friendly tables with the log burning fire too. Great place.

The staff at the Old Gatehouse are always welcoming, understanding of dogs desires (for example, the need for extra cheese on the scrambled egg), great menu tailored to breeds of dogs (for example, a spaniel’s breakfast: sausage and cheesy scrambled egg). There’s water readily available, plenty of dog friendly tables inside, rugs for them to lie on too.

Not only that, but they have a great selection of beers, wines and spirits for the human mummies and daddies!

Staff and venue super dog friendly! They have treats and dog station and a menu! My girl Lola loves going to the Old Gatehouse!

Incredible staff, food and atmosphere and the dogs are made to feel just as welcome as their humans


Catherine McNally, September 2024

Extremely dog friendly, friendly staff & our dog pulls us to go in as she loves the special dog treats she gets from staff!!


Michelle Fyfe, September 2024

One of our favourite places to go. The staff are amazing and there is always a very warm welcome for the dog. Prince is well known in here now and absolutely loves going for lunch/dinner. I also love that they have a full menu, just for dogs, which not every place has. Been going since it opened and will continue to go.


Cheryl Drummond, September 2024

Love that we can take the dog with us on a night or day out


Hugh Dunn, September 2024

We come weekly with our Tibetan Terrier Teddy. He loves coming and is veers in the direction when we walk by. He knows he will get water and a treat and even a towel if he's wet. He is always welcomed.

Great staff and all amazing with dogs. We go regularly and they are amazing.


Elissa Ferguson, August 2024

The most dog friendly place we’ve ever been. We travel from East Kilbride to Lenzie just to come here it’s so good. We’ve been coming since our girl was about 5 months & she’s now 15 months. She loves it & not just for the great doggy menu! Shes always made so welcome, & her now best pal there even remembers her name. Their Breakfast with Santa Paws event in 2023 was superb! They so deserve this award so we’re keeping our paws crossed 🐾


Erin Simms, August 2024

Fab place for dogs, staff are always lovely


Ishbel Fyfe, August 2024

Emma Gibb, August 2024

Super place, great for dogs and lots of blankets, bowls and toys.


Gillian Renwick, August 2024

I love that they are so dog friendly and have a nutricious dog menu to give the dogs a snack. I only give my money to organisations that are dog friendly now - if you don’t want my dog then you don’t get me!


Lorna Cooper, August 2024

It’s our favourite place to go with the dog for a couple of drinks or a bite to eat. The dog even gets excited when we tell him we’re taking him to be the pub dug. He always gets a wee treat off their super dog menu. Staff are very friendly and dogs are always made welcome.


lisa scougal, August 2024

A seriously dog friendly pub! From dog menus to dog markets in the summer! What's not to love?


Heather Buist, August 2024

Our local friendly pub and restaurant, bit the dog and I love it.


Diana Black, August 2024

Kobe, our Golden Retriever loves visiting and settles well in friendly environment. Always gets sausages, treats and a friendly clap, hug or acknowledgment. 😀👍


Kirsten Mackay, August 2024

They’re a friendly pub where the dog menu is awesome - but be prepared for the weird experience of quite fancying a wee taste of whatever you choose for your dog’s dinner though, even though the human food is good too! They’ve honestly gone above & beyond to be a lovely place to take a dog, for both the furry customers and their human companions.

They also do fundraisers for Dogs Trust and stuff - it’s not just about bringing custom in for them. Lovely place!


Carrie Milligan, August 2024

Very welcoming, amazing doggy menu with brilliant portion sizes. Doggy water station and treats. Our dog loves going there.


Ruth Gillanders, August 2024

Kat Kamogawa, August 2024

Beautiful place, friendly staff always welcoming. Very dog friendly with a beautiful dog menu, cute table with water, bowls and blankets.


Josh Maclean, October 2023

It is my local dog friendly pub and the food and the staff are great!


Lauren Ellison, September 2023

Visited a few times now with my reactive dog. Staff are kind and respectful when I explain she is fearful of humans and will bark when approached. We are always given a seat in the corner so she has her own space. The dog menu is fantastic and we love going there as a family.


Ruth Canning, September 2023

The Old Gatehouse a great place to go for food and drink. It is truly dog friendly as opposed to many places which are merely ‘dog tolerant’!


Aileen Murphy, September 2023

Excellent quality food and service in a lovely environment. Our dog's favourite place to go for food and to make friends.


Shona Angus, August 2023

Our local pub/restaurant. Friendly to humans and their dogs plus the pooches get their own delicious menu to choose from. Dogs are welcome outside and inside. Perfect place to go after a nice walk


Josh Maclean, August 2023

They are always very welcoming towards my dog, always have a treat for him and a pet. They have a great dog menu as well!


Josh, August 2023

Lovely dog friendly pub, the staff are all very friendly especially towards dogs. They have a dog menu, a little table with water, water bowls, blankets and treats. They are having a doggie market on Sunday 27th August fundraising for Dogs Trust.
