Really good fuelling stop (food & drink) near to Widdybank Fell and Cow Green, Caters for passing trade and people staying/camping nearby with hearty meals and at least 2 well kept beers e.g. Jarrow "Rivet Catcher". Recommended as one of the very best options in this part of Pennines Arctium_lappa - 17 Feb 2013 23:38 |
Awesome recent beer festival ! darloexile - 26 Jun 2010 12:53 |
The Jarrow Brewery Rivet Catcher is tremendous & a lovely part of the world. It's worth staying over too - even if the bath water is a little brown. Oh, and there's a Geology exhibition on. Don't think I've ever seen that in a boozer before deportivo_azul - 25 Apr 2009 00:45 |
Visited this pub for the first time after walking to High Cup Nick and back. Perfect end to a brilliant day. Unpretentious, cosy and with excellent beer (Rivet Catcher and a new Black Sheep product called Golden Sheep). Also our party of four enjoyed our meals - (very spicy beef Madras). All served by friendly, interested staff. Looking forward to making my next visit. Steve.Ottevanger - 14 Apr 2009 14:58 |
This pub is the Tan Hill Inn of Upper Teesdale - remote, basic and seemingly with fires burning whatever the time of year. Even if you haven't traipsed across the moors in a snowstorm to get to it, it's the sort of place that makes you feel as though you have. There was a good selection of decent ales and a nice atmosphere when we were there. Two minor criticisms though: why does everything on the menu come with chips and peas, even dishes with a pasta or rice element to them? If we'd ordered pudding (which we didn't), we'd have half expected chips and peas with that too. And the bed and breakfast was over-priced for what it was. Otherwise, the Langdon Beck Hotel is authentic and original, and you can't say that about many place in these days of Wetherspoonisation and blandism. PeterHenderson - 11 Jul 2008 17:55 |
