I was there today with one of my dogs at a meet up with a great group of followers of Max out in the Lake District. Almost everyone had dogs with them and the staff just carry on serving , stepping over the dogs.

I first visited years ago when I had our three young grandchildren with me. A local shop with a cafe refused to make a sandwich without butter for my eldest grandchild so we left. Hope Park Cafe were so obliging we have visited regularly ever since usually with three dogs. They even provide an outdoor pool for our dogs on hot days.
