It's a reasonable enough pub with drinkable beer. It's a little bit of a climb out of time though lardarses can catch a bus up.

A friendly pub with decent enough beer.

Good news! Anita has persuaded the owners to refurbish this pub with new carpet and upholstery, although keeping its traditional feel. Coupled with the fresh flowers she puts out and its delightful setting, this remains a fine Fellside pub.

A realy nice pub and well worth a visit, I loved it there, the warm atmosphere and
fantastic beer, well looked after and very welcoming.

For anyone worried during this cold snap that the Riflemans is not always altogether cosy, the current acting landlord is running both the (coal effect) gas fires to the full! I'll be making my way for a preprandial this evening despite Kendal's frozen pavements.

Nice little pub and excellent beer. Well worth it if you can cope with the walk up Beastbanks!!!!!

This pub has just been named the Westmorland branch of CAMRA's Pub of the Season. Well done!

This is one of the three good pubs (only) in, or just out of, central Kendal. (The others are the Castle and Burgundys.) It has three rooms including one for a pool table, with a central bar. There are up to four changing beers in good condition (and no food). On Thursdays there is a folk night. It is about a mile down from Scout Scar and might be the best candidate for a walkers� bar in Kendal. I�m worried, however, that except on Thursdays, it is rather quiet. We should support it in case we loose it.

Pleasantly situated local being next to a green close to the woods. 2 very good real ales on and the landlord was very attentive, and seemed to care about the beer he was selling. Highly regarded by the local CAMRA membership.
