The Spotted Dog

BBQ/Smokehouses Established 2025 Not Onboarded

The Spotted Dog is a much-loved, dog-friendly 15th-century country pub nestled in the heart of Penshurst. Taken over in 2025 by Bowes Hospitality, the pub is now enjoying a fresh chapter, with its historic charm restored and a new energy running through every corner.

About Us

Our menu is inspired by owner Laurence Bowes' time in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, where he fell for the bold flavours and warm hospitality of American barbecue. Expect slow-smoked meats, Southern-style dishes, and seasonal specials made with local ingredients and plenty of care. Drinks-wise, we serve local ales like Larkins Traditional and Harveys Best, our own White Wolf lager, craft beers, a thoughtful wine list, and great low-alcohol options too. Whether you're here for a long lunch, a post-walk pint with your dog, or one of our upcoming events, The Spotted Dog is a warm and welcoming place to gather. Follow us on social media or sign up to our newsletter to hear what's coming next.
