The Dog & Gun
About
Nestled in the picturesque village of Oxenhope, The Dog & Gun is a true West Yorkshire landmark. Built in the 17th‑century, the coaching inn marries historic charm with a modern, welcoming feel. From the oak‑beamed bar lit by two open fires to the expansive original Well Restaurant, guests enjoy a warm, village‑pub atmosphere while sampling award‑winning cask ales, craft beers and a thoughtfully curated wine list. The pub offers a relaxed dining experience featuring hearty home‑cooked menu items, ranging from hearty breakfasts to hearty Sunday roasts. The kitchen’s focus on locally sourced produce ensures each dish is fresh and flavourful, with vegetarian and vegan options available to cater to all diners. Whether you’re looking for a quick pint after a day out, an intimateity dinner or a venue for a small wedding or private event, The Dog & Gun’s two dining areas provide the perfect setting. Visitors can also take part in regular community events – a weekly quiz night, themed evenings, wine‑tasting evenings and charity fund‑raisers – making this more than just a place to eat or drink, but a hub of local culture and camaraderie.
