More than just a great doghouse
Once upon a time, there were no good pubs in Leamington Spa for dogs and their owners to hang out together. That made us sad, mainly because we took Henrietta - our pug - everywhere!
So, in 2012, we took on the mantle and opened the doors of The Fat Pug, welcoming in dog-lovers and locals from the neighbourhood. Before we knew it, word spread around all of Warwickshire.
The pub’s not just somewhere for small dogs to sleep by the fire. Freshly-made modern pub food, bar staff that smile, after-work laughs, and all the good stuff you’d hope a local community pub would do.
Passing the dog test
All of our food is pug-approved, and by the fussiest of our Grumble.
Luckily, it is also widely community-approved, too. We pioneered the toast station at breakfast (and use the BEST bakery), Pizza Monday is always packed house, and you’ll want a good nap (or walk!) after our Sunday Roast.
If pizza isn’t your thing (what’s wrong with you!), then our burger, taco or pie dedicated nights throughout the week might hit your taste buds. Or - as some regulars do - make it to more than one!

Fantastic lunch!
Great for lunch. I took my mum for her birthday and we both had the award winning pies served with mash and seasonal vegetables. It was absolutely delicious and thoroughly deserving of their awards. Service was quick and friendly.

Giving every man and their dog a home
Back when pubs in Leamington Spa were not for dogs, you’d have to sit outside in the cold and rain if you really wanted a pint or pie in a decent pub when out with your pup.
That was Matt & Alex, and it wasn’t so long ago. So they did something about it.
The Fat Pug opened its doors to dogs and their owners in 2012, though it’s for anyone who wants a great pub meal, a welcoming smile, and effortless comfort.
We’ve won awards, sure. But, more importantly, we made a pub we would want to go to back when there wasn’t one.
When we're open
A community pub doesn’t serve the community if it’s not there when you need it, so we’re open from breakfast until bedtime. We give our chefs a little break on a Monday morning, but otherwise we’re here for a quiet coffee, hearty meal, or catch-up over drinks all week.
