Great place for our dog. And the food that they sell always fresh and delicious.

Jake Herring, October 2021

Paws for 5 is not just a dog friendly cafe but a place designed with dogs in mind where well behaved owners are welcome too. Itā€™s the perfect place for your dog to socialise with others, grab a yummy bite to eat from the dog menu, and have fun while their owners relax with a cuppa and something from the fantastic menu (including various vegan options), make new friends and fuss over all the other dogs who come over to say hello. Anne, the owner of the cafe also runs special events such as parties, charity events, treasure hunts and costume competitions with plenty of fun and treats for both the dogs and their human companions. On top of that, the cafe also sells everything your pooch could ever want and need to take home with them from homemade treats and biscuits to leaders, collars, harnesses, outfits, shampoo, doggy perfume and much more. There really is no other place like paws for 5 and itā€™s a treasure for both humans and furry friends alike.

Lovely atmosphere, friendly, talkative staff and wow!! Did not expect the food to be as nice as it was for a doggy cafe but it was really lovely, super tasty and so cheap!!! Our dog is a huge part of our family, as humans we get to go and have fun on nights out or to the cinema etc so itā€™s really lovely to take our dog somewhere where he can have fun with other dogs. Well done you guys. X

Alison Edwards, August 2020

Great place for good value food and drink with friendly staff -even when you don't have a dog, but enjoy meeting other people's!


Maureen Davidson, August 2020

Paws for 5 is so much more than a doggy cafe, it's a community of like minded people. Some people have been patronising Anne's cafe since it opened 3 years ago, but there are always new visitors who bring nervous dogs, young puppies and rescue dogs who benefit from the socialisation they experience in Paws.

Anne treats every dog as a VIP, who just happen to bring their humans with them.

Dogs have a choice of menu, including special doggy sausages, hand baked wheat free biscuits, pup cakes and a variety of flap jacks, etc.

The humans are well catered for as well, their menu includes vegetarian and vegan options. The cakes are pretty special as well.

I think the one thing which proves that this is a true doggy cafe, is that quite often the dogs turn up a while before their owners. Anne just let's them in, knowing that the owners will turn up soon


Karen Clasper, August 2020

Fantastic friendly atmosphere, doggies have a ball, its such a welcoming place. There's plenty to eat for both humans and doggies, games, birthday parties. Ann goes over and above to make her place the best, and it is.


Ashley Bell, August 2020

Lovely bright cafe, delicious food and treats (for both humans and hounds!) and a welcome like no other. We know we'll always be greeted like part of the family no matter how long since our last visit, and they are kind, gentle and patient with our nervous dog, helping build his confidence no end.


Michelle Croan, August 2020

Best place to go after a walk with my pooch and she loves it!


Kendra Wilson, August 2020

The absolute best. Relaxed friendly and a good menu for humans and dogs.

A wonderful cafe. Friendly staff and also many regular visitors. Good menu for humans and dogs. Anne does a great job, getting to know every dog and owner. I always feel welcome and enjoy my visits with my two Bedlington terriers.


Donna Dobson, August 2020

I love going to paws for 5 everyone is so friendly, my dogs love seeing everyone and there dogs to play with. Also the owner is always very helpful and kind she keeps my dogs safe when my little boy has a meltdown because he's autistic and I have to take him outside to calm down where its quiet and my dogs stay with Anne who they absolutely love. Its such a friendly place and we love celebrating our dogs birthdays here and with other. I wouldn't go anywhere else.


KATHLEEN KERR, August 2020

Friendly, good food, friendly dogs. Ann has lots of choice not only for us humans but for our dogs, in fact, the dogs come first!!

Lauren, August 2019

I have just recently found this little gem of a place there are loads of dog friendly places in seaham but this is a cafe for your dogs they just bring the owners along to pay the owner and staff focus on the dogs they have the time of their life they sell yummy food for us and your dogs they have events throughout the year with loads of party's I've been sitting in with my dogs and a dog turned up on its own Anne let it in and 10 minutes later their owner appeared it had ran down on his own highly recommend once you visit you will go nowhere else ???


Gill, March 2019

Paws for 5 is one of the best Dog friendly cafes I have been into...I visit everyday at some point...my dog drags me in on our walks , we are so lucky to live so close to it .. such a wide range of great food for the dogs amazing how much there is....you need to see it to believe it.. I`m also diabetic and Gluten Free and the food is lovely they also do vegan options too and prices are so so reasonable not expensive at all . Anne the owner will put herself out to help with whatever food you need. Its also very child friendly and has a disabled entrance....They put loads of fun events on too ā€¦. If you love dogs its the place to go and chat with lots of like minded people ā€¦..anyone in the Area with a dog or even without if you just love dogs well worth a visit....!!


Maureen, March 2019

Paws for 5 is a real doggy cafe, not just a cafe where you can take your dog. The dogs are allowed off lead so that the can play and socialise, while their owners can take advantage of the tasty food on offer. There is a quiet pen with toys beds and wayer bowls,for any pooch who isnt confident enough to join in. The menu includes vegetarian, gluten free and vegan options.

Anne, the owner,organises special "puppy socials", breed meetups, fundraising events for local charities and doggywalks etc.

The cafe has become a true social hub for local people as well as tourists who are visiting Seaham from all over the country.

She stocks specialist doggy snacks, gifts and a wide selection of collars,leaders and toys. Responsible owners can pick up free poobags. Customers can hold birthday or gotchaday parties, which includes dog friendly cakes,with candles, balloons, games etc.

There is a big field next to Paws, and more than once, dogs have been known to leave their owners and turned up at the cafe door on their own Anne lets, them in knowing their owners won't be far behind.

Little humans havn't been forgotten as there are high chairs and the cafe is breastfeeding friendly.
