Sainsbury’s has announced it is opening a three-day pop-up restaurant for pooches that will serve up dog-friendly Christmas dinners, taking place from 13th to 15th December.
Visiting dogs will dine on a ‘silver service’ style feast, complete with doting waiters, at the pop-up restaurant just off glittering Regent’s Street, London. On the menu will be tail wagging-worthy treats, including by Sainsbury’s Festive Dinner for Dogs, with flavour options including a lip-smacking mixture of turkey, carrots and sage, or chicken, duck and turkey.
No Christmas feast is complete without dessert, so pooches will be also served with Sainsbury’s Mince Pies for Dogs, a combination of cereals, yoghurt and dried fruit.
A professional doggy photographer will be on hand to help guests get that seasonal social media snap – with matching Christmas jumpers for owners and their dogs.
It’s not just our furry friends that will be able to tuck into a mouth-watering meal, as their owners will also be served Sainsbury’s new Christmas sandwiches, alongside a glass of fizz, so they can dine alongside their dog.
People wishing to attend the event can now book a slot online for their four-legged friends to dine in style at the pop-up via this link.
For one owner and their dog, a ticket to the pop-up will cost £5, with two owners and one dog costing £7.50. This includes entry to the pop-up for the 45-minute session, food for the dogs, a Christmas sandwich and a glass of fizz for the owners.
Sainsbury’s will be donating all proceeds from the pop-up to charity partner, Guide Dogs, as part of the supermarket’s drive to ‘Help Brighten a Million Christmases’ this year.
Sanj Kaushal for Sainsburys, Pet Product Developer said: “While the nation tucks into a delicious Christmas lunch each year, our beloved dogs are often stuck with their everyday dinners. With such a large proportion of our customers having pets, the happiness of the four-legged animals are as important to us as their humans! So, this year, we want to offer a ‘silver-service’ Christmas dinner experience for our customers’ canine friends and get them involved in the festivities We’re really pleased to also be offering a wide range of innovative Christmas pet food and treats for both cats and dogs, so our customers nationwide can treat their furry friends to an extra special feast this year!”
