Pub’s novel way to keep dog lovers happy

It’s the Chinese Year of the Dog but our four legged friends have always been pampered at The Draft House Gastro Pub in Strandhill where snug kennels are the order of the day.

Every day is a dog day at The Draft House. Diners are offered private kennels which have a video link so they can keep an eye on their pets while they enjoy a well earned lunch or warming hot whiskey.

The dogs are well looked after with snug beds and fresh water. Strandhill is popu- lar amongst dog walkers and the Draft House kennels are a great option rather than leaving pets in the car. There is no cost and booking isn’t required.

Each owner is given a tablet PC linked to their dog’s kennel which is locked for security. The Draft House looks after active humans too, providing hot showers free of charge for chilly surfers (or walkers).
