The Big Dug Vote
During July 2016 we asked dug owners of the UK to vote for their favourite dug friendly place. There was no restriction on who to vote for so dug owners were free to choose any place in the UK. 3,456 unique votes were received for pubs, cafes, hotels and shops located all over the UK. It was an amazing response!
- The Real Food Café in Tyndrum, Scotland was the overall winner.
- Runner up was the Ship Inn in Irvine, Scotland.
Congratulations to the Real Food Cafe.
We are delighted to have won this award as we love the fact that we can genuinely welcome dogs to the café. We have been amazed at the number of appreciative customers (and pooches)!
– Founder & Owner of the Real Food Cafe, Sarah Heward
