The Dog & Gun Inn, or "The Dog", as it tends to be known by its regular visitors, is set amongst the magnificent countryside, above the village of Oxenhope. It is an old 17th century Coaching Inn, and is well known for its excellent food and fine ales.


The Dog is reputed to have a mischievous ghost. By all accounts a local lady who used to drink at the pub in the late 1700's and who, when leaving the pub late one night, is said to have fallen under the wheels of a carriage. Even until this day no-one can quite explain some of the strange occurrences, items falling, and the occasional sense that even on the quitest of evenings you're never quite alone!

The pub is proud to offer a wide range of premium cask conditioned beers, as well as a full selection of competitively priced lagers, spirits, malts and fine wines. The Dog offers eating choices to suit all tastes...

  • Restaurant

  • Bar meals

  • Snacks

So, whether its a quiet pint in comfortable surroundings you're after, or a quick bar snack and to relax in a welcoming atmosphere, or if its a romantic meal for two in the cosy restaurant, then you couldn't be more at home than in the Dog and Gun.

The surrounding countryside offers something to suit all tastes. There are many walks, even for the most ambitious of walkers, and the chance to explore the local countryside and use the pub as a final meeting spot cannot be missed.

Take the time to enjoy the best country scenery Yorkshire has to offer. In the distance are the remote moors which inspired the Brontes. Wuthering Heights can be seen from the pub's doorstep and its a convenient stopping point on the return from the popular tourist attractions of Haworth and Hebden Bridge.

     

The Dog is popular all year round...

In winter it has two roaring open fires which just ask the visitor to relax and stay, and keep out from the cold wind outside....

In summer, the views to the open Bronte moors in the distance, and the accessibility to local visitor attractions like Haworth and the Worth Valley Railway make it a convenient and attractive place to visit....

Kath and Michael Roper are proud to offer visitors a great Yorkshire welcome, a fantastic selection of beers including Timothy Taylor's Bitter, Golden Best and Landlord, as well as a varied selection of lagers, bottled beers and the choice of a wide selection of wines from an extensive wine list.. 

The Dog is the perfect choice for orgainsing your function or celebration. Whether its a romantic meal for two, a drink with friends, a family meal or a function for many guests all needs can be catered for....

The Bar area provides a great meeting point, and for a bar snack or just a couple of beers with friends its welcoming fires and friendly atmosphere make it a place you can just relax and be at home. The Restaurant provides somewhere quieter to enjoy great service and excellent food. Linked to The Dog is the Leeming Wells Hotel - the perfect spot for a bigger function catering for up to 130 people at a single sitting, and if some of your guests need accomodation then its all under one roof. The perfect answer for a birthday celebration or a wedding reception.

The surrounding scenery just adds to the attraction. The Dog and Gun Inn is only a short distance from many local beauty spots and the very best Yorkshire has to offer in terms of scenery and entertainment. Haworth is less than 2 miles away, home of the Bronte sisters. There lots to see and do in Haworth, or visit the Worth Valley Railway. There are many lovely walks, which will bring you back to the Dog and Gun for lunch. If you fancy travelling further afield the Dales has so much more to offer, and just over in the next valley is Hebden Bridge, home to Hardcastle Crags. Superb is you want a days walking in the woods, but equally ideal if you just fancy pottering around the gift shops and antique stores. The Yorkshire Tourist Board shows many fascinating ways to spend a few hours or to spend the day. Check out their website: www.yorkshirenet.co.uk
 

The Dog has people coming from all parts of the world to enjoy its unique offerings, but also it has many regular for whom its a real home from home. We hope to see you there soon....
