The Norfolk Arms Ringinglow: Sheffield pub sells more dog treats than peanuts after launching canine menu
Matt Cullen, landlord of The Norfolk Arms in Ringinglow, Sheffield, who started selling dog chews alongside human snacks in 2021, said in one recent month he sold twice as many dog snacks as peanuts.
The pub has a menu on each table for humans and another one for their canine companions from The Canine Menu - a dog menu for dog friendly foodservice outlets.

Dog owners can choose from three types of chews: rabbit, venison, and boar.
The pub also offers Grab and Go Duck Bites and dog beer and wine from Woof & Brew.
Mr Cullen said that having the snacks available on the bar for dogs had boosted sales.
He said: “The majority of the time we sell more dog treats than peanuts."

“Every table has a menu for humans and a copy of ‘The Canine Menu’ so they can choose something for their dog.
“The chews are £2.50 so customers don’t break a twenty pound note when ordering a couple of pints and a chew or two.
Nick Marsh, hospitality expert and co-founder of The Canine Menu, added: “We want to provide everything venues need to create the ultimate dog-friendly experience where guests and dogs are both made to feel special and valued.”
