Does anyone know if any of the eateries at the Ricoh Arena Shopping Complex allows pets inside? Me and the missus are coming up next week and will have a small dog with us. We're meeting my son who has suggested we go for a coffee and a bite to eat, and as he lives nearby, we thought it would be an ideal place to go. If not, are there any other places in the area which will do breakfasts and also allow a small pet?
Thanks.

I am interested to know too, Houch.

We have just acquired a puppy and are oblivious pretty much to anywhere where they allow dogs.

Only two I know of as a fact in Coventry are the Greyhound up at Sutton Stop and Urban Coffee Company, Fargo Village.

Neither are at the Ricoh though obviously. I would doubt it to be honest. Can't see anywhere there allowing dogs.

For a country that is supposedly full of dog lovers you'll find a lot of places don't allow dogs. Go to mainland Europe and there are far fewer restrictions.

Can't think of any chain places who will let you in, unless they have outside seating. Best bet is generally pubs or non-chain cafes / coffee shops.

Would be really useful if a site like trip advisor added a filter to search by dog friendly.

 

[chiefdave]

You could always mail Tim Fisher and ask him, he used to take his dog into work at the Ricoh!

Go to the hare and hounds or somewhere, always dogs in there.

Country pubs are the best bet

the Greyhound up at Sutton Stop

I think they only allow a certain breed in there Otis.... ;-)

Shitzu?

Also bull and butcher, red lion allow dogs. Horse and jockey also.

 

[Otis]

Shitzu?

Thanks.

As he was playing the big tease and not letting me know, I had starting compiling an A-Z list of all breeds.

I had got as far as Chihuahua, so cheers.

You would have got there soon Otis. Just be grateful it's not called "the whippet"

Yep. May write to them and ask them to change the name to the Afghan.

That's probably a good idea, especially if your puppy is an Afghan....

No, it's English.

Without wish you to rake up the past Otis but do you think you should have another pet after the last one.

at least it can kill a rat!

That's exactly what I have Otis - a Chihuahua!

 

[Otis]

That was the exact thinking.

My missus is STILL really distraught, hence the dog.

We have a cockapoo.

A what???? I thought that was a bird?

 

[Grendel]

The unicorn does in the bar area and that is a Hungry Horse so it may be worth checking if the one near the Ricoh does as well,

The Almanack in kenilworth is great. An upmarket bistro bar that charges well over £4 a pint and let's dogs sit on the seats in the bar.

Rainbow as well.

What type of bars do you frequent Grendel?

If we're posting pictures of our dogs this could be the best thread we've ever had on here!
