NEW LANDLORDS, thank God! The new landlords Paul and Lisa are lovely and welcoming. What a refreshing change after Mike and Susan. The food and drink is good, but the real change is that you will now find locals coming out, and local events in the pub too. theoldfellow - 13 Mar 2014 13:55 |
Thoroughly enjoyed our visit here �a welcome unspoilt pub with good atmosphere. Good range of drinks and food. Service was friendly and fast. mozzzzzz - 13 Sep 2010 10:49 |
The Sun is no longer an inn, it's a restaurant, drinkers are tolerated (just about) by Cruella Deville of "You'll be lucky" if you want to dine here fame. There is no room to sit/stand for a pint at the bar and all tables usually reserved, you may be lucky enough to be permitted to utilise a table before the diners appear at the appointed time, but don't count on it. Have been a patron for many years but sadly no more under the current management. Rebus - 11 Sep 2010 16:54 |
Excellent pub grub and real ale at reasonable prices.Wine list was very good too. Friendly staff. Best to book as always packed. We found this goldmine after walking on Skiddaw and had a late lunch. We liked it so much we came back for several dinners although on our first attempt we couldn't get in as it was packed so we booked for the next night. We found the two sittings for dinner useful to know in advance. We tried the early sitting after a long day walking and had no problem giving up the table for the 8pm sitting as we had more drinks outside and were able to enjoy the stunning view up Ullock Pike on Skiddaw. When it got a bit cooler we came inside and had a coffee at the bar.When we came for the late sitting , again the food was great and we didn't have to move until the pub closed! All in all a great find and would recommend it to anyone. blencathra - 11 Aug 2010 13:35 |
Great food, great atmosphere and a stunning view. The staff and other guests were really friendly and we had a very enjoyable evening. Clearly some locals eating here too, always a good sign! We will definately call in again next time we are up this way. IainJenkins - 18 Jul 2010 13:41 |
