Fox and Hounds in Copeland

After our long walk at Ennerdale water, we stopped in here for lunch and we certainly had no regrets! All of us hungry after a long walk, this is the place to stop for a generous portion of hearty food! Dogs also welcome inside and looks to have a lovely beer garden which would be nice on a sunny day.

We visited the area while staying at Ennerdale Scout Centre and from visiting the Egremont Crab Fair. We popped in at the start of our trip to have a pint in the garden and subsequently booked Sunday lunch. The range of ales is superb - I highly recommend the local Loweswater Gold. Very moreish. For our Sunday lunch, we all had Sunday Roasts (a mix of lamb and beef) and one vegan stir fry. The portions were incredible and the food was incredibly tasty. No room left for a pudding, sadly! The atmosphere is lovely - a great local inn. Highly recommend.

I know a lot of Coast to Coast walkers use this so I have to tell you I just had the worst fish & chips of my life here. Followed by an even worse apple crumble. The batter on the fish was grey and greasy (and the fish was only just cooked within it). The chips were truly awful. There was a blob of mushy peas as an afterthought. The apple crumble was dreadful - I actually have to complain as it must be hard work running a pub and hotel but I have never tasted such glutinous unappealing crumble - it was a blob of goo. Come on, guys, it's not as if it was even especially cheap. These are popular dishes: try out some recipes until you get it right. Reset and go again.

The service was excellent, even with 12 of us. We pre-ordered which was easy and the food came out in good time. The landlady did an excellent job with the drinks. Warning if you have the pies as a main, don't have a starter else you will not finish the main. Food was very tasty, hot and well presented.

Such a fabulous find! Lovely little camping spot. The chips were lush! The wine is good! And Michael particularly went above and beyond! We were so grateful! Everything we asked was greeted with “give me a minute” and then he fulfilled our requests. We were pathetic damsels in distress and he was literally a hero. Stopped an old coot from crying. ☺️

Visited here after our walk around Ennerdale Lake. Service was warm and welcoming, the food was delicious and reasonably priced. Pleasantly surprised at how much we enjoyed our visit. Will call again next time we're in the Lakes.

Visited here twice after a 3 day stay in the area, staff are great, food portions are great, drinks selection are great, not a single complaint from us, drinks are fairly priced as is food and the beer garden is absolutely spot on, and to think we could potentially lose places like this due to big business greed, places like this need protecting, keep up the good work 🤝⭐️

The perfect Lakeland pub nestled in Ennerdale village. Spacious and characterful rooms. Pub grub with walker portions and great beer. A great start to your coast to coast trip!

Just on an afternoons drive and came across this little gem of a pub. A real proper pub 🍺 in an amazing location Very friendly staff Good selection of beers Reasonable prices Fab beer garden with a stream running through, can't wait to come back

Good food massive portions. Fresh cooked veg, lots of vegetarian and vegan options. Can't fault it. Lovely pub with good selection of beers. I feel like I won't have to eat for a week

The food was excellent and very good value for money. I had the steak and mushroom pie, which was first class. The desert menu was equally as good, with good helpings. The children loved their food.

So pleased we found this pub. We are staying 10 minutes away in Lamplugh and read some amazing reviews for food and we were not disappointed. The portion sizes were HUGE we ordered beer battered fish and chips, the fish was cooked to perfection and chips were home cooked. We witnessed a burger leave the kitchen and it was so big! I had scampi which was delicious. We sat by the fire and enjoyed the cosy feeling around us. I would most definitely recommend this place.

Lunch out with friends, cold day outside but we were sat next to fire which was great. Food was lovely and staff very friendly - good choice on menu, would definitely recommend.

I stayed here during a walking tour and found everything about the place to be delightful. The staff were friendly, the food was delicious and plentiful and the room was warm, clean and spacious. In addition to all of the above, everything was excellent value for money.

Fantastic evening meal, the steak and guiness pie was so tasty and full of meat, with lovely fresh veggies and a really good thick gravy. Desserts of coffee caramel cheesecake, home made, and local ice cream finished off the meal perfectly. Local ennerdale beer and lakes gin went well with the meal. Staff all really helpful and friendly and the pub has a lovely cosy atmosphere infront of the log burner. Large portions but smaller portions are available of most dishes. All freshly made which is perfect.

A welcome break from all the rain after a long walk from St Bees. Nice warm room. Paid for dinner - a huge amount of food. Nice ambience in restaurant and nice to talk with other walkers. Breakfast included - again, enormous amount and rather salty chef. We bought a Hearty packed lunch for the day ahead.

My husband and I had an evening meal here, the last Saturday in August. We couldn't have found any faults if we'd looked for some. We dined early (6pm) and even then the place was quite full. Nice friendly staff and good food, plenty of it too. I was seated in a big red leather wing chair which was perfect for me, I'd recommend it to anyone with spinal problems, I could have sat there all night in comfort. We will definitely be back.

Fantastic pub with gorgeous home cooked food and very friendly staff. If you like good home cooked food and generous portions this is the pub for you

Huge portions, kids meal fed a hungry 11 yr old. All was homemade and delicious. Cute beer garden with stream. Would visit again.

Another great pub at this location, good food and local beer on tap. Very popular with locals and walkers alike. One of the 2 locations for accommodation on the coast to coast walk.

Stopped her for lunch after walking around ennerdale lake. A warm welcome greeted us and the food was properly home cooked generous portions. Dog friendly too. We intend to do the walk again later in the year and would certainly consider stating the night here now.

Just got back from this little gem at Ennerdale for a Mothers Day meal and have to say very pleasently surprised and how nice and how good the quality of food they are serving there. All meals were beautiful, quick service, all piping hot and can tell everything is homemade. All the staff are very welcoming and as ive said food was served quick. Highly recommend to anyone to give this place a try as we will 1000% be back again. £81.20 for 3 x 3 courses plus drinks which i thought was very reasonable for the quality of the food. Starters of Halloumi Fries & garlic mushrooms, Mains of Battered Cod, Scampi & Lamb Henry, Deserts of Ice Cream, Triple Choc Cheesecake and Apple Crumble.

After our ennerdale walk we were really hungry and needed a place to dry off also and we stopped here for a filling sandwich chips and lasagne. it barely touched the sides

I spent five days walking in Ennerdale in early October, based at the Fox and Hounds in Ennerdale Bridge. I phoned beforehand to check the Covid 19 precautions and was reassured by friendly landlady.The Fox & Hounds is nicely located in a pretty corner of the village, just opposite the church. My room was rather gloomily decorated but the bathroom was brilliant - spotlessly clean with lots of hot water to soak in the bath on returning from a walk. As I don't eat meat I was pleased to see a lot of vegetarian and vegan options on the menu but unfortunately I can't recommend the three I tried - greasy mushroom stroganoff, bland cheese pie and unbelievably leathery vegeburger which I could hardly chew! Fish and chips were fine though. The highlight for me was breakfast - I had wonderful freshly-made fruit salad and very generous portions of mushroom, tomato and beans.The Gather, a community-owned cafe just next door serves good soup for lunch and has a small shop for essentials. Walking in Ennerdale is something else - wonderful woodland and mighty fells - with a remote feel more like the Highlands than the Lake District.

Popped in for both afternoon post-walk drinks and also a pre-cooked evening meal. Good selection of real ales and a small but perfectly formed food menu. The Cumberland sausage and mash was excellent, and the SHB (specials haggis burger) was massive with salad, onion rings and loads of crunchy chips.Friendly staff and good hygiene and social distancing in place.

This is a natural stop for anyone visiting Ennerdale Water, another achingly beautiful lake. Covid restrictions were in place, so I'm unable to comment on the normal atmosphere in the pub, but the staff were helpful and we felt welcome. The local ale was perfectly served, always a good start. And the food was top notch pub grub, including scampi, ham salad and in my case a spectacularly good pie, prepared and cooked in house. All very good, recommended.

Enjoyed our meal here, excellent spinach and Wensleydale tart and great sticky toffee pudding. Staff friendly and nice decor.

We stayed here on our first night of the C2C. The plan was to camp in the garden (which was so nice and by a little stream). But unfortunately it was raining and we were soaked so we asked for a room. The staff were so kind and accommodating and showed us to our room which was amazing and had a big radiator in the bedroom and bathroom so we can dry all our clothes. The bed was so comfy, we had coffee and biscuits in our room and a really nice, hot shower and bath. The view from the window was beautiful.The man behind the bar gave us bin liners so that we could keep our things dry in our bags during the rest of our walk (it worked so thank you so much!!!!) He also gave another woman (who was also doing the C2C) a knee strap and drove her bag for her the next day. He was so kind!The food was AMAZING!! The best full English I've ever had!! There was cereal, fruit salad, yoghurt, juice and of course a cooked breakfast. The fried bread was DELICIOUS and so was everything else! It set us up for the day. We also had dinner here the previous night which was delicious. I had the burger and my boyfriend had the mushroom stroganoff- both were so good!

Birthday dinner for family and friends tonight food amazing atmosphere great and service A1 Started well with stunning sunset framing the place as we arrived Perfect night 5🌟

Chips and drinks after walk around lake. Nice snacks and drinks. Locals are doing a good job with this pub

Ate here on a Sunday evening and there was plenty of tables free although it was quite busy. The steak and ale pie was huge with plenty of filling. It came with a large portion of hand cut chips and veg. It was lovely. The burger stack was huge, filled with a very thick burger, caramelised onions, 3 huge homemade onion rings, bacon and cheese. It was delicious. Also served with chips and salad. A huge portion! They were let down a bit by the desserts. The Apple crumble was lovely but the cheesecake arrived without the coulis sauce. When I asked where it was, was told they’d run out. Should have been told this on ordering as we would have chosen something else. Also, the cheesecake was very gelatinous so not a nice consistency at all. Overall, a lovely meal and a nice pub.

We called in for lunch after a walk round Ennerdale Water, the pub is lovely and the food was amazing and all freshly home cooked. We will definitely call in again when we are back in the area!!!

We had dinner here on our Coast to Coast walk. It is a friendly pub and cosy. There is a good range of beers. Although it was late we had the Sunday roast.I'm sure it would have been better five hours earlier. Nevertheless, we enjoyed it. The portions were generous in the extreme. I have seldom had so much meat on my plate for a Sunday dinner.

On a wet August drive, we came through the clouds at EnnerdaleBridge & we’re delighted to find this gem! Lovely real ales & a steak pie with mash & veg that would satisfy gastronomic giants! Very friendly staff and locals. I’m looking forward to coming here again!

Wij hebben hier vanavond gegeten met 2 personen. Gezellige pub van binnen met leuke zit hoekjes. We bestelden beiden de burgerstack.Nou die burger.... wat was dat lekker. Ten eerste, alles wat erop zat was zelf gemaakt, de enorm dikke burger en ook de uienringen. En ook de friet was volgens mij zelf gesneden. Het smaakte iig echt geweldig, jammer genoeg zaten we te vol voor het dessert.

Gemütliches Pub mit gutem Essen. Sehr schmackhaft und große Portionen zu anständigen Preisen. Gute Bierauswahl. Ausnahmslos zu empfehlen.

Our group of 8 visited on a Sunday, booking a table at 6pm.On arrival our table was pointed out to us, so we all sat down. We went to the bar and bought drinks and asked about ordering - we were told that someone would come over.10 minutes later no one had come over, there seemed to be only one person working the bar, and there was a que of people ordering food.We decided to just go up to the bar to order the food (four of us went up to order 2 meals each). I went up and attempted to order 2 drinks and 2 Sunday lunches. I was told that if we didn't all order together we wouldn't be served together. I replied 'that's fine we aren't bothered about being served at the same time'.The young lady ignored this and just charged me for the drinks (not taking the food order)!Going back to the table we all decided what we wanted (5 beefs and 3 lambs) and one of our group rejoined the que to order. By now it was around 6:30pm.When they got to being served all the Sunday Lunches were sold out!The whole reason for our visit (and booking the table a couple of weeks in advance) was to have a Sunday Roast (our group were on the coast to coast walk)!This was the most farcical service I've experienced in my life!We reluctantly ordered food from the normal menu. To be fair the food was good and plentiful.It didn't quell our disappointment though!

We stayed at the Fox and Hounds on our first night of the coast to coast walk. Our room was large and comfortable, the staff are incredibly friendly, the food hearty and the beer good - what more could you want. Highly recommended.

Nice local pub, where the staff were really nice, had an amazing Cumberland sausage main, but the star for me was the prawn starter, outstanding. Good local beers too

Great food at the pub and loved a pint in the beer garden earlier in the day. Friendly service - thanks

Great pub - lovely local pub but you probably need to book and like most places round here need to order before 8.30ish. However, Jasmine (owner) is really helpful and may be able to keep the chef on duty if you are late (call ahead) !

Went for dinner this evening, I would advise that you make sure you've a big appetite bordering on starving, the food is excellent and the servings enormous. I would also advise booking as understandably it gets very busy, the staff are very friendly and the atmosphere is great.

We had dined at Shepherds hotel next door but wished we had eaten here. Nice atmosphere, tastefully decorated and homely with real fires. Ales were lovely too. Happy to recommend

Good food and good atmosphere. Plus the cider. Was nice and cold. Love the decor of this quaint little pub.

Having been walking around Ennerdale Water we decided to get a quick bite at the Fox and Hounds. Well behaved dogs are allowed but are to be kept on the lead, which is fair enough.

Amazing food. We ordered 4 different meals. Steak and ale pie, Cod and chips, Rump steak, Cheese onion potato pie. All meals were the best we've tasted. Fully recommend for anyone. Great atmosphere too.

After a day spent travelling popped into Fox and Hounds for a meal with my son who was STARVING as usual 🙄 great food and good company 👍🏼 Recommend this place to everyone 5 🌠 ever time

We came here after completing Scafell Pike, wet and hungry. Great pub with fires and a wood burner.

Lovely welcoming pub serving a good selection of drinks and excellent food at a reasonable price. It's also dog friendly. I would definitely recommend a visit but would advise to book especially at weekends as it was quite busy

Visited for lunch and dinner with our two dogs. Staff were very welcoming. Food was top rate and well priced. Pub has been recently refurbished and looks great. Will definitely be back. Russ and Elaine Newton le Willows.

Good local beer, outside seating, wouldn't really say it was a garden as not much effort has been put into it, just tables and benches.

Lake district best burger ever! Big portions and very delicious, our second visit here and never disappointed. I would recommend to anyone!

Hyggelig lokal pub med et godt utvalg av lokale retter som så veldig gode ut. Men, har du glutenintoleranse eller allergier, er utvalget svært begrenset. Det var kun fish&ships; som kunne serveres glutenfri, og det var ingen stor opplevelse. Det forteller noe om kunnskapsnivået til kokkene, for de fleste retter bør enkelt kunne tilpasses. Synd, for stedet er veldig hyggelig. Vegetarretter var det derimot godt utvalg av. Betjeningen var imidlertid svært hyggelig og prøvde å gjøre så godt de kunne.

Stayed here while doing the Coast to Coast walk early in August. A really pretty pub and such a lovely location on the C2C route, with its own stream babbling just outside our bedroom window - heavenly! Best bath we had on the C2C walk because it was so big and the water so hot - a wonderful soak to ease those aching muscles. Then a drink from the bar, supped outside in the gardens by the stream, before ordering our evening meal - and yes, the portions are very adequate and the food so tasty! Twin beds very comfortable and breakfast so filling we didn't feel the need for our lunch until 3 pm! The pub is under new management and the staff eager to please. Very reasonably priced and would stay there again.

The Fox and Hounds is a proper Lake District pub - full of walkers and locals enjoying a good range of local beers (try Ennerdale Dark) and huge portions of home-cooked food. The steak and ale pie was superb; my son's cod was so large it hung over the ends of the plate while our neighbour's gammon had to have the chips brought over separately as there was no room for them on the plate! After a day on the fells though, nothing could be better. Veggies/vegans are also well catered for with 3 or 4 choices on the menu - not something you always find in a Cumbrian pub. And if, somehow, you have room for desert then the bread and butter pudding is to die for. Very, very highly recommended.

Had a great meal a couple of months ago so came back and yet another top quality meal and friendly service. The staff are great nothing ever too much effort really professional but friendly. Daughters burger was a definite WOW!! Might need another walk around the lake to walk this baby off

Been some years since visited this pub. Since then it has been refurbished and now under new ownership ( use to be a community run pub).

We stayed here on the first night of the coast to coast. We had been warned that the camping area was just a strip of pub garden - it was lucky our tents are small! Facilities are basic but were fine for our needs.

My wife and I recently completed three days of the coast to coast walk. We stayed at the Fox and Hounds on our second night and was the best accommodation of our trip.

The Fox and Hounds catered for our party of 16 twice in one week! The food is mainly traditional pub grub served by friendly staff. We pre-ordered our food on both occasions - all meals came out on time and with no mistakes. Clean plates all round! The Fox and Hounds Burger and Traditional Fish and chips were both popular choices. Large portions too. All washed down with a good variety of local beers. Will definitely return in the future.

Good food, good service and nice atmosphere. Have been a couple of times now after a good walk. Will return

Called in after an exhausting day on the fells. It had gone 9 but they were still happy to serve us. Had a fabulous Steak and ale pie. The size was phenomenal. Huge potion of mash and veg with lashings of gravy made us feel human again.

...after a long day’s walk. Fish and chips and scampi were nicely done and really hit the spot. As did the pint!

Went for a meal with family and friends. 6 great meals, good service, good beers all you can ask for.

Love this place by the stream. Bring your friends. Bring your family. Bring your dog. Great beer and food.

Well worth trying this place after a lovely walk. Always great staff attitudes and fantastic ales on tap.

Food is good, they do smaller portions for those of us who haven't walked 15 plus miles! Very helpful people and a good atmosphere.

Excellent pub. New owner who understands his customers. The menu and quality of the food was excellent. Small camp site next to pub. Lovely church. I was impressed by the owner and way in which he attends to his customers.

Lovely old English pub with good atmosphere. We visited on a cool evening and were seated in front of the fire. Good selection of beers to choose from and many menu options. The gammon and tart we had were both excellent with prompt and friendly service.

Ate here when doing coast to coast Great food , good beer , great friendly service Lovely relaxing atmosphere and locals very very welcoming Would highly recommend

My wife and I called for a late lunch and found a nice little country pub with friendly staff and good food. We both ordered "off the menu" and were obliged without any comment. The food was perfect and reasonably priced. A smashing little pub which we will visit again.

After a gruelling 16 hours hike we phoned on spec for a nights stay here to rest our weary bodies.

After a day walking in Ennerdale popped into the Fox And Hounds for a well earned scrum my dinner! First time since it’s been under new management got to say amazing change. Warm welcome tasty food and plenty on the plate Be back again soon without a doubt

A perfect cozy place to seek refuge from the Coast to Coast trail in a pouring rain! Very cozy old world feeling in the pub with other friendly hiking-boot clad guests. I cannot remember what I had for dinner, but I do recall that it was just fine and we were dead tired. The rooms at the inn were charming also.

Me and my partner went here last night the food was gorgeous.we both had a steak and home made chips.with Apple pie and I've cream to follow.I would recommend this a place to go.

I would have given them 5 stars as it was a lovely homemade meal. Lasagna was best I’ve ever tried. The niggling thing was we had pate starters and the chutney came in a chipped bowl! Apart from that well worth a try

Nipped in here for a quick "pie and a pint" following a gentle walk around Cogra Moss reservoir.

We ate here today Sunday lunchtime. I do not eat meat but saw the table next to us enjoy a large roast dinner which looked good. I then asked if I could have the vegetables and as there was no vegetarian gravy ( very cheap from any supermarket) I asked for a jug of vegetable soup. My meal arrived with 2 dry roast potatoes grey inside, a yorkshire pudding, a spoonful of mash, a small portion of carrots, uncooked swede, and the tiniest sprig of brocolli . I am a vegetarian so expected decent helpings of vegetables. In no way did my meal compare with the adjacent table. I was not asked how my meal was until after my husband had paid. I said it was very disappointing and explained why, to which the waitress said she was very sorry and walked away!! I was charged the same as for a full roast dinner for this child size portion of mediocre food and I can only think they had ran out of food. If anyone at the Fox and Hounds reads this I would be glad to discuss it with them. If they have a conscience they would offer a refund. The clue is in the word vegetarian, we like vegetables!!

Visited after a very wet walk on the coast to coast and felt there was a reasonable choice of real ales and a decent bar menu for a Sunday with nicely cooked food

Good friendly local pub, food is basic, inexpensive and plenty of it. No juke box or telly and the WIFI is dodgy so you actually have to speak to people! A radical departure from most pubs these days! The beer's not bad either!

We were staying in a nearby property. The Fox and Hounds was in the list of recommendations to eat. As it was local we thought we would try it. As a family there was a mixture of opinions. Husband said Steak could have been better and it was 'dry', little one liked his lasagne, I was not really impressed with my sea food platter which consisted of a mix of hot and 'cold' sea food. The crab sticks were room temperature almost 'warm'.

La comida estaba bien, pero frío, con excepción de la col cruda, que era muy pobre. El lugar está muy cansado y bastante sucio. La trona mi hija no había sido limpiada en mucho tiempo. Éramos las únicas personas en y tuvimos que pedir algo de música que poner ya que el sitio estaba apagada). Tenían también acabaron de todos vino blanco. Lo siento no te pensaré volver. No me gusta poner exámenes mal, pero como no nos preguntó si todo estaba bien con la comida que me am, aunque estoy seguro de que el hombre debe de haber oído nosotros bar se quejan de la otra que la comida estaba fría piedra

Good pub grub with a wide choice from which to choose , very friendly staff with a good range of local beers. We stayed the night in a very comfortable room.

We again Visited the Fox and Hounds for a refreshment and comfort stop as part of our Clubs Vespa tour of Lakeland.Very helpful and friendly staff, great little pub with plenty of parking.Well worth a visit.

I'd just finished my first day of the C2C walk and had arranged to meet a friend here. The beer was brilliant and the service was provided with a smile. We didn't eat but the many people around us in the beer garden were doing so and seemed very pleased. We discovered that the pub was community run. Just wonderful. Ventures such as this need our full support.

Great local pub that is managed by the community.A good range of local ales ,hearty,home made and good quality pub fare.The atmosphere was amazing in this small traditional Lakeland Inn.

After a walk around ennerdale lake it was getting near to tea time so we popped in to the fox and hounds never been in before sat outside in the beer garden as it was a sunny day had a cup of tea first when the tea and coffee came it was just a small cup for tea and the coffee as well not worth the price l expected a pot not a tea cup for 170 p any were ordered 4 bar meals food was nice wouldn't put me off going back just make your tea pots of tea not small cups that would be better .

WE camped here for one night on our recent Coast to Coast walk. The pot of tea we had when we arrived after nearly 16 wet miles from St Bees was heaven - THE best pot of tea we had on the whole walk, honestly!nothing was too much trouble for the landlord, and the food was delivered to our table what felt like just minutes from ordering. It was also proper delish! Breakfast was also really really good, with lashing of tea and toast.We would thoroughly recommend you stay here if you're doing the Coast to Coast!

Beautiful food, plenty of choice and lovely staff. Didnt book but got lucky! Lovely outside area to sit when its nice. Serves Hartleys ice cream. 100% recommend!

Ate here twice on a week long break. First was on a Friday night and although busy we were accommodated and had a delicious tea of pretty standard pub food.Stopped for a soup and sandwich unchanged day and it was like a totally different place (probably a different chef). The soup was stone cold and my cheese and onion sandwich was just cheese.All that said, the real ale was perfect and very well kept. Bar staff very friendly and chatty, especially the young lad who we educated on what a lager and lime is.

Popped into this lovely pub while doing the coast to coast and staying in the village. It had a lovely friendly atmosphere, a great selection of local real ales and good value food. Definately worth a visit if you are in the area.

Excellent traditional village pub out of the way and Off the Beaten Track the team running the pub were amazing the food was good and the beer was too rooms clean tidy and large room number three was perfect we had a great stay thank you very much to all.

Lovely location; super food, but it is the customer service I wanted to highlight. We were there with my very elderly father and the staff could not have been more accommodating, even bringing the drinks out into the garden, while we settled Dad. Thanks folks. Made our lunch all the more relaxing. In fact, although we only live down the road, we're thinking about coming to stay for a short break!

We've been the the pub numerous time when travelling back from the lake. It's really good for a quick pint and the location is great, near the old church with the river running beside it. The staff aren't really with it most of the time however. We've been there and asked for the lunch menu to be told 'I don't know if she wants to cook any more until this evening', before he went to check (she didn't want to) and have also been told at couple of minutes before serving time ends 'you'll have to wait until later' (meaning hours later). There's often no one visible behind the bar and you can stand there for some time before service appears. It's a lovely pub with lots of history and beams and atmosphere but the staff just don't seem very bothered about pleasing customers or customer service. We've stopped going now, which is a shame as we were there weekly.

We called into the Fox and Hounds for two pints and a meal. The beer was excellent and the food delicious. Recommend booking a table if you want to eat.

Good food, great selection of ale, decent coffee and very friendly staff/atmosphere. Dogs also welcome. Board games and a pool table and apparently they have craft mornings on a Friday and beginner bee keeping classes!

Limited range, but good value pub food. Steak night was tasty and very good value - £20 a couple. Don't always serve food every day out of season - so check in advance to be sure. Good location in Ennerdale Bridge - on the coast to coast route. Friendly staff.

Popped in after a walk to the lake. Steak and Ale pie was great with proper chips. good selection of real ales. Plenty of room with good comfortable seats.

Very friendly and great pub food. My brother dropped his phone and wallet outside and the community took great effort to find him and hand it back - we were touched by this

Wife and I had lunch here after walk round the Lake. Characterful pub with friendly staff. Excellent Local beers and good but standard food served quickly.
