Dog-friendly cafes and pubs in Napier
6 cafes, bars and pubs around Napier with a dog policy we can point at a source for. All of them are outdoor areas: nobody around here has put an indoor policy in writing yet, so we are not going to say they have.
- Dogs inside means the operator has said dogs are welcome in the building, and we hold the wording that says it.
- Outdoor areas means the courtyard, the garden bar or the footpath tables, and not indoors.
Dogs welcome inside in Napier
We have not sourced a single indoor dog policy around Napier yet. Some places here may well take dogs inside, but no operator or guide has said so in writing where we could read it, and we will not put words in their mouth. If you know one, send us the wording and we will add it with the citation.
