Jose @ The Swan
We are already firm fans of Jose Pizarro following our visit to their Bermondsey restaurant in March. I now call it the ‘ham pub’ because the lovely waiter there gave me some delicious Iberico ham to try. The humans told me how lucky I was because it’s so expensive but I don’t concern myself with money. I leave that to them!
Imagine how excited I was to learn that Pizarro does have an actual pub and even better to learn that it’s in Esher which is only a 20 minute drive from my house!
If you are looking to sample the delicious Spanish tapas in a relaxed pub environment, then you have to try The Swan Inn. The menu has all the Pizarro classics with the addition of a traditional Roast on Sundays.
The pub itself is large and spacious with plenty of room for dogs of all sizes and it also has an extensive outdoor area, part of which is covered.
I didn’t see any water bowls so do take your own and you might not be as lucky as I was to get ham so take your own treats just in case!

Great place to go for a pint or two. Everybody is lovely and always have treats for dog. It has an awesome terrace

This is our local pub and we love going here as they are so welcoming and dog friendly! Dogs welcome in the bar/ restaurant area and outside in their garden/ courtyard too. The humans say they do really good roast dinners and yummy desserts!

Loved it here! They took us in last minute when we were let down by our booking with Brindisa 2 doors down. We were even allowed to sit indoors. The humans loved their cocktails and food - Turkish twist on brunch! The chefs even made me my own pup friendly bacon and eggs. I saw they offered a fellow pup a doggy bed to use which is a nice touch but I preferred to use my own bag for a post brunch nap.

Well behaved doggos on leads are welcome inside this festive event! It gets a bit busy so I stayed mostly in my bag but I enjoyed stealing some of the humans bratwurst and even got my own puppacino from the bar!

Great for a rest in after a stroll in Green park. Lots of big TVs for the humans to watch live sports.

The humans said the pizza here was super tasty, but wouldn’t let me try any! I got a nice cosy spot for my bag under the table for a post-walk nap. Ladywell fields is a couple minutes walk away for a pre/post meal walkies.

A great place to stop for a rest after a walk at Ladywell fields. Lots of yummy fresh pastries, breads, sandwiches to try and coffee to wake the human up on those early walks! Mumma says they also do the most amazing french cakes and patisseries!

Great place for the meat lovers! I got cuddles and my own bowl of water. Mumma and her friends got their paws very messy with all the bbq food, apparently not suitable for pups though!

Popped in hear on NYE after a wet stroll in Greenwich park! Very warm and cosy to dry off. They do yummy chicken

The humans visited here before they had me and said the food was delicious! The owners told them how they offer cushions for dogs to sit on! They enjoyed watching the resident dog trying to escape from his pen.

Pawfect place to stop in after a long stroll in Greenwich park! Bear in mind pups are only allowed in the front part of the restaurant so be sure to mention this when you book as it gets busy! Inside looks great, makes for great photos for the gram! Humans love their coffee, cocktails and brunch - so everything on offer really!

Had great fun at their Halloween party!
