Sailmaster Tavern sits right on the marina at The Rwy in North Haven, a relaxed local pub known to regulars as "The Saily" with views over the boats and a menu that runs to fresh seafood and a self-serve salad bar. It is explicitly dog-friendly, not just tolerant.

Dog access and setup. Dogs are welcome on the outdoor deck and alfresco area overlooking the marina, which is also the best seat in the house regardless. Staff are generally accommodating, but bring your own water bowl since on-site water for dogs is not guaranteed. Keep dogs leashed and settled at your table while in the outdoor area.

Known for. The marina views are the headline, paired with classic pub meals, fresh seafood, a self-serve veggie and salad bar, and lower-priced specials on weekdays that make it a regular haunt rather than a one-off.

Getting there and parking. Address is 20-22 The Rwy, North Haven SA 5018. Free off-street parking is available on site. It is easiest reached by car, being a bit removed from the closest train lines.

Nearby with the dogs. The marina trail right alongside the tavern makes for an easy on-leash wander before or after a meal, and the Lady Gowrie Drive foreshore is a few minutes away for a longer walk. Largs Bay foreshore, a short drive south, adds a proper stretch of beach if you want to make a longer day of it.

The deck rail sits close to the marina edge, so keep the leash short around the water if your dog is boisterous.

Weekday lunch is the quiet window if you want the deck to yourself. Good for a relaxed pub meal with marina views either side of a walk.
