Shafston Hotel

The Shafston Hotel is a classic, spacious suburban pub on Lytton Road in East Brisbane, and the reason to bring the dog is its easy outdoor setup plus a genuinely welcoming attitude toward them. It rates well across more than a thousand reviews, so it is a reliable local rather than a gamble.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome in the outdoor and designated outdoor seating areas, not indoors. Water bowls are provided and staff have been known to hand out a treat. Bring your own bowl as backup and keep your dog settled beside you at the table.

Good to know. It is a full-service pub with solid pub food, live music, sports on the big screens and a lively feel. Wheelchair-accessible entrance, parking and restrooms.

Getting there and parking. On Lytton Road with easy access from the CBD. There is a free onsite car park plus street parking nearby, and bus stops on Lytton Road are a short walk away.

Nearby with the dogs. Mowbray Park sits close by on the Brisbane River for an on-leash stroll before or after, and you can carry on along the riverside path toward Kangaroo Point.
