THE RULES BEHIND THE WELCOME

Off leash only in designated areas 5:00 am–midnight daily.
No dogs in Long Water, Round Pond or at the Peter Pan Statue. Leash at pond edges, Italian Fountains, Flower Walks and Serpentine South Gallery/environs.

Dishoom King's Cross: Ordinary dogs welcome at outdoor tables when weather permits; only service dogs inside.
Can my dog go off leash at these places?
Hyde Park, Kensington Gardens, The Regent’s Park report off-leash access, with the designated-area and timing restrictions described above. A dog-friendly venue is not automatically off leash. Where the leash rule is not confirmed, ask the venue.
Which details should I check before I go?
Hyde Park, Dishoom Battersea, Dishoom King's Cross have a leash, scope or evidence question to confirm. Open the place’s sources and conditions. A recorded source check is not an on-site inspection, and your saved personal visit does not update the policy.
Access in brief: Dogs excluded from the Diana Memorial Fountain, Lido, lake itself and bowling/tennis area. Leash beside the Serpentine. Rose Garden rule differs between official documents; see notes.
Times: 5:00 am–midnight daily.
General visitor policy requires a lead in the Rose Garden; commercial dog-walking terms list it as excluded. This difference may reflect commercial-use scope; confirm before using that garden. All three parks exclude dogs from children’s playgrounds and toilets; leash near roads and water, keep control and follow local signs.
Evidence confidence: conflicting. General dog access is supported. Official general and commercial documents differ for the Rose Garden; their scopes differ, so no whole-park prohibition is inferred.
Service animals: Not researched separately
