Fantastic Staff, Fantastic Pub
Look this place is everything you need in a lake district inn. Warm fires, excellent food and some genuinely outstanding beer.
The staff were amazing with us and I cannot compliment the bar staff or chefs enough.
Would go back tomorrow would give it 6/5 it it were possible to rate it that highly

Lovely friendly place to stay
One of our go to places when up in Kendal for business. Clean & friendly and a good choice of things on the menu. Food is delicious!
Only downfall we had was we booked a certain table for dinner one evening and one member of staff had moved us and was quite rude about it! Original table was empty the whole time we were in the restaurant! Wouldn’t have minded if she had been polite and explained why the move had been made!

Had a fabulous afternoon with friends celebrating an early New Year’s Eve, pub was bouncing with customers and great atmosphere. Terrible weather had probably increased footfall but staff took it all in their stride and accommodated everyone. Slight delay with table we had booked but no issue at all, food was great, staff friendly and helpful. Even went back for lunch today. Thank you 🤩

This is a place we come to every so often and always have a great time there. It is a down-to-earth Pub with no pretensions but it has an awful lot going for it. Located in a small village of Ings we tend to drive 10 minutes or so to Grasmere and do a lovely walk from the centre to the round Rydal Water. This is quite tiring so there's something very special about going back to this cosy pub and having a pint of the Windermere beer brewed on the premises. We stayed overnight in our room was small but very comfortable. The bathroom door could do with oiling as it does squeak a bit but other than that Just enjoy the comfortable bed and lovely bedding. Breakfast is included and it is fantastic. Locally sourced food and I challenge you to eat it all!We got the bacon and sausage to Takeaway as it was just too good to leave and some of the best we've ever had. The staff are helpful and friendly and good fun as well. If you want a no stress short break this could be your place and it is highly recommended.
