The Royal Dick
1 Summerhall Place
Not so much a pub as a bar-stroke-café, but The Royal Dick – which used to be an animal hospital – is still one of the most laid-back places in Edinburgh to bring your dog.

Hamilton’s

There’s usually at least one dog propping up the bar at this lively Stockbridge favourite. The menu is strong on locally sourced fish and meat, and the staff will make a big fuss of your four-legged friend.
