18:22 - AndyMetalFreak

It was the owner who gave me a load of verbal abuse by the way not the dog.

18:20 - AndyMetalFreak

I don't eat out nowadays anyway, not just because of dogs but because it's so bloody expensive.

18:18 - AndyMetalFreak

The majority of restaurants and cafe's accept dogs around here. I had to tell an owner of once because his dog nicked something from my plate and I just got a load of abuse back off him.

18:16 - Gag reflex

new Kamelot is godawful xd

18:08 - A Real Mönkey

Call me totally nutty, but allowing animals of any form and drunk people in the same building sounds like a recipe for disaster.

17:25 - ANGEL REAPER

@Boxy dog allowed restaurants are really rare here too. Some bars and beer halls allowing pets are more common but none of those really serve food.

17:10 - Ansercanagicus

in terrace maybe. I've seen a dog in a bar once, it was a close friend of the bartender
