| Possibly my favourite pub in a week's worth of the Inn Way to the Lake District. At the end of a beautful mountain route from Barrow Door, it sits in an elevate position over the village with stunning views. The Yates Bitter was absolutely first class.

| Lovely hotel and bars at the top of Braithwaite village with amazing views across the mountains. We walked here from Keswick on a Thursday for lunch and a pint, it appears in the 2016 GBG so it also acted as a tick for me. 3 ales on the 3 hand pumps, my pint of Cumberland Breweries Corby Blonde @ 4.2% was well kept. 2 different bars that both serve a separate section of the hotel, the main bar as you enter from the front also the large garden has several tables & bench seats and the small bar, while across the way is a separate bar named the Georgian Bar which is a stand alone bar and lounge room & is very homely feeling, however it was closed on this visit. We stopped for a pint and a sandwich before moving on, a very nice hotel and bar with superb views from the beer garden. lezford - 18 Jul 2016 21:49 |
| Haven't been here for several years before popping in recently one lunchtime. It's a nice place but was very quiet. Beer a bit bland. My lamb was pretty tasty. Service friendly (& cheeky!) Psi - 4 Jun 2012 14:28 |
| We spent 5 nights here in August. Overall gets a 7.5 out of 10 i.e. Good rather than excellent rating. The plus points were - value for money for a Lake District hostellry, friendly staff, good breakfasts and reasonable choice of ale - excellent Bitter end Lakeland Blonde, OK Yates, OK Tirrell. The public bar and hotel entrance were also atmospheric and as mentioned in other guides/reviews the garden a really nice place to sit with a book and pint and soak in the views. For walkers this is the real strong point - as you are straight into the trails. The minuses were a pretty basic family room (not helped by being over the kitchen roof, extractor fan etc) and wholesome rather than particularly imaginative bar meals but clearly very popular. But you get what you pay for especially in the Lakes and the management of this pub knows its market and focuses on good service, reasonable value for money and a good atmosphere. Conclusion - good touring spot for the North West Lakes without the crowds and good rather than outstanding accommodation/food/beer combination. and the management knows it markets and works hard to serve it . cfowler - 18 Aug 2010 11:27 |
