Poshest pub I've ever been in- I'm surprised they let me in. I think it's because the owners of Askham Hall also own the pub. The beer was good though- barman served me an IPA straight from the barrel which was very pleasant. Clifton is a nice wee village with some interesting historical sites. jagsfan - 15 May 2017 13:00 |
Our third trip to the George & Dragon over a five year period, and we received our usual warm welcome and excellent service. There were three ales on: Cumberland Brewery Corby Blonde (4.2%), a citrussy pale hoppy beer with lovely bitter finish, Hawkshead Bitter (3.7%) and Independent Lakeland Breweries Entente Cordiale (3.9%). As we were driving through, we only sampled the Corby Blonde (several times by the passenger, only once by the driver!) but I wish that we'd tried the Entente Cordiale as the write-up we've seen elsewhere looks like we've missed a treat. Food was great, delicious minute-steak baguettes, and the staff couldn't have been more helpful. Worth the slight detour and we look forward to our next trip north to call in again. It seems OTT to award the pub a 10 but I really couldn't fault it and anything less would be churlish! Maisie - 28 Jul 2013 14:06 |
This pub is on the A6 into Penrith and does both meals and accommodation in addition to 3 real ales. It was extremely quiet on our Sunday evening visit with only 3 other customers chatting to the barmaid in one corner. On a cold winter's evening, the place was warm and cosy. The barmaid was keen to ensure the fire was still giving off heat. Beers on were Hawkshead Bitter, Cross Bay Nightfall & Cumberland Corby Blonde. blue_scrumpy - 20 Jan 2012 22:18 |
