| Ate here at weekend. A very friendly nice pub with a good selection of real ales which are not very expensive compared to keswicks pubs. i ordered chicken stuffed with cream cheese and chorizo in a cream sauce(�9ish) my wife choosing steak and ale pie both served with fresh veg and chips(frozen) with a portion of home made onion rings. The food was of a high standard except the chips which do appear to be the norm in keswick and surrounding areas having said that we would readily return and would deffinately recommend this little, busy gem. tomturbo - 29 Aug 2011 16:01 |

| This is a small pub in the village of Portinscale about a mile from Keswick. It describes itself as a 'village bar and dining room' with a bar at one end with a few tables on a wooden floor and a more formal (though not very formal) dining area (on carpet). The furniture has an Ikea feel (its modern and light). There were three Jennings beers on on my visit and the food menu is plausible (not too large, fair price for the location, good local reputation). I've enjoyed a beer here on many occasions though on my last visit (8.12.2007) the Sneck Lifter was in the worst condition of any beer I've tried in years: utterly undrinkably vile. Such things happen and it was replaced quickly with a different beer but it was worrying that I was offered the explanation: it may just be the first pint. At �2.90 it would be good if, if that is a risk, the first pint (or 2) were drawn and thrown away not given to the first customer. drtimthornton - 10 Dec 2007 14:16 |
