Popped in for some drinks after I couldn't find a coffee shop that was open and I'm delighted they were all closed. This was a great little bar, with some wonderful beers on offer, both locally produced and by some of the UK's best breweries. Great to know this is here next time I'm in the area!

A lovely brewery tap room in the hart of town, a huge choice of excellent beers larger and wine and the spirt of your choice, comfortable surroundings, friendly atmosphere, and dog friendly.

One of the best small bars in Penrith, and quite possibly the best beer selection in town. Amazing Cumbria brewed real ale, excellent seasonal offerings, and great ciders, alcohol free options and bottles of guest beer. Highly recommended.

Lovely atmosphere and a wonderful range of beer cask and draff including their own - loved the Fell Ghyll Gold Ale and my partner was thrilled to see they did a wheat beer! There's a food deal tues-Thurs and sun with the Greek takeaway too

Cosy, inclusive pub in the heart of Penrith with sick tunes. Mad good beer selection offering a meal deal with the amazing greek restaurant next door. Plus the bar man is giving Aphex Twin ++

A really chill place with a great selection of beers. Came here a few times for our week long trip to Penrith. Perfect place to while away an afternoon in the rain. Make sure to take advantage of the £9 food and beer deal in conjunction with Just Greek down the road. Perfect combination

11th - 8th Went in for a beer NEVER AGAIN! I'm not sure who's employed the very rude little tubby 'waitress'... When she eventually pulls herself away from her fast food takeaway that she's stuffing down her face (behind the bar) all you can expect is a very bad attitude..... Best avoided!

Large group of us had a drink. Staff managed us well as so many of us. The toilets are not suitable for those with mobility problems unless there was one on the ground floor I was unaware of. Soda in bottles therefore smaller than my usual pint! But good atmosphere

Really nice cosy place for a drink, especially if you're into your ales. Visited on a Saturday around 5ish and you could see it'd soon be difficult to get a seat despite having additional room upstairs. Good selection of ales ranging from £4.50 all that way up to £10+ and also had spirit and wine options. The place is dog friendly and the bar staff were very knowledge and helpful. Were even able to provide us with some detail about other places to visit in Penrith. Would definitely recommend it and its ideally situated to go for a takeaway at Just Greek!

Had a lovely pint of bitter, not from Fell Brewery, and thought of trying another but many of them were ridiculously overpriced, £6, £7 upwards, sometimes not even a pint! Decided to go somewhere more reasonable.

Went to a Caribbean music DJ gig. Great atmosphere, friendly crowd, range of interesting microbrewery beer, excellent service. A really good sympathetic conversion of a very old building into a laid-back, characterful bar.

Huge selection of ales, quite a few ciders and gins. Very dog friendly, seating on two floors , wifi, low level music and a relaxed vibe. Range of ales was substantial from multiple breweres, not just Fell. Strength ranged from 8% 'pinnacle' for £7.35 ( for 2/3 ) or 6.5% 'in depth' £8.20 a pint to a 0.5% pale 'beck' £4.80 a pint plus porters ryes stouts and sours. Not on real ale finder though so you will not find it by looking there. I was lucky enough to walk past by accident. Lovely pub

Four of us visited here for the evening after travelling up from the Midlands. Easy to get to in the town. The downstairs room is quite cosy but there is a bigger room with more seating upstairs on the first floor with the toilets being located on the second floor. Great selection of beers and a few ciders too, we sampled a good few of them as we stayed for about 5 hours.. Staff were friendly and efficient and the place was very well patronised with most if not all the seating being taken up for most of the evening until about 10.30pm. We had not eaten since lunch and an especially nice touch was that we were allowed to bring locally purchased take away food to eat whilst we finished the evening off. Our original intention was to maybe visit a couple of local hostelries but this place had everything we needed and resulted in a most enjoyable evening.

The Fell Bar has a really good drinks menu with top quality beers and spirits. My husband had two pints of the Sureshot and I had the Lakeside Grapefruit gin. Both were really good especially the gin which came with chunks of pink grapefruit - delicious. The bar staff were friendly, there was extra seating upstairs and the vibe was very down to earth.

We had a fantastic night here. The choice of ales and gins was brilliant, my wife particularly liked the nettle gin. All Covid based restrictions were explained as soon as we came in and were upheld completely. There was a point early on when a gentleman decided to break the social distancing rules, was asked to sit down repeatedly and was then a complete arse about it, but Louise handled the situation fantastically and deserves all the credit she can be given for it. We will return the next time we visit Penrith.

I have stopped here many times for a drink and a couple of times for food. I have eaten in the bar and had very good hoke cooked lasagne, a generous portion too. I have also eaten in the restaurant and enjoyed a steak that was cooked just as asked and would recommend to others. A good selection of beers on draught. Will certainly be visiting again soon as is one of the better pubs over the options in Penrith itself.

4 of us ordered food, 2 jackets, 1 combi platter which all felt like frozen items fried and served with salad, not great but not terrible either. I ordered a cheese and onion pie with gravy as it was on the menu, I just said pie and pointed to it so didn't think to specify, 25 minutes wait later our food turned up and I got cottage pie put in front of me, they offered to change it for me but because everyone else had their food after a wait I felt obligated to accept it and it wasn't nice, the mince had clearly been defrosted as the mince beef clumped up. Felt really shitty eating it as I really fancied a cheese pie. The server hadn't bothered to clarify which pie I wanted not did they repeat the order back to us as the order was taken, poor customer service if you ask me. We won't be back. The venue was nice, the staff were friendly but oversights like this ruin the experience. Cottage pie would have been the last thing I would have ordered, I really really dislike it, but of course I'm too English to send it back. Nor did they offer to knock anything off the bill for the mess up.
