Sainsbury’s brings festive cheer to pups with dogs dinner pop-up
Posted by
Sainsbury’s has announced it is opening a three-day pop-up for pooches that will serve up delicious 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 in London. On the menu will be tail wagging-worthy treats, including by Sainsbury’s Festive Dinner for Dogs, with flavour options including a mixture of turkey, carrots and sage, or chicken, duck and turkey.
four legged guests will also enjoy by Sainsbury’s Mince Pies for Dogs.
For those looking to ‘get pupped’, a professional doggy photographer will be on hand to help guests get a seasonal social media snap – with matching Christmas jumpers for owners and their dogs.
Owners will also be served Sainsbury’s new Christmas sandwiches, alongside a glass of fizz, so they can dine alongside their dog.
Sainsbury’s will be hosting three sessions on the evening of Saturday 14th, where friendly dogs will be ready to welcome guests who are without canine to join them for their Christmas dinner.
For one owner and their dog, a ticket to the pop-up will cost just £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 is 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!”
