| Probably the pick of the pubs in Boot - mainly because of the Whisky collection and sampler menu. Its also in the Good Beer Guide 2017, so the ales were in fine condition to. Ghoulash was on the menu. Wish I had saved myself to eat here :-) Visit blogged at http://bit.ly/2qDLAu9 Mappiman - 21 May 2017 09:51 |
| Welcoming and comfortable substantial stone built building, handy for the terminus of the Ravenglass & Eskdale Railway. It is fairly plush inside, but the sign does say “walkers welcome”. The bar (on the right ) serves 4 or 5 real ales, mostly local. I had the Barngates Goodhews Dry Stout, which was absolutely excellent. One of my friends had a beer from Cross Bay upon which he commented favourably (the other one didn’t drink anything – it’s a long story). There is an appetising menu of full meals, but we were limited for time, so restricted ourselves to sandwiches (I had the prawn). These are expensive, but not unduly so, and very nice. I’ve only been there the once, but it looks like it might be the sort of place where strange coincidences happen – we ran into somebody who we had sat opposite on the train (not the R & E) the previous day. Finally it should be noted that it is possible to sit outside at the front – If you can trust the local weather sufficiently ! 8/10 – need to find an excuse for another visit !

| You are a bit of a captive audience between here and the Boot Inn if in the vicinity. The food was okay (well let's say overpriced for what it was) but the ale was good quality and there was a decent selection so definitely worth popping in for a pint. anonymous - 4 Jun 2015 18:34 |
| Visited here as a party of 7. Staff very accommodating - squeezed us in (although I don't expect they would be able to manage that in busier periods). The food was fantastic - restaurant quality. Lovely atmosphere. Tasty beer. Friendly people in the bar. Can't fault it. Will definitely return here. Catthedoglover - 18 Nov 2014 13:36 |
| Swift visit on 14th September. Didn't eat, but the food looked excellent. I had a couple of pints of TED, which was absolutely superb. Staff attentive, and the place was very welcoming in all respects. If you have not tried this pub, you should! The_Heavy_Fandango - 16 Sep 2013 19:51 |
