Great pub with a good selection of beers... Nice to sit outside and watch the world go by... Weather permitting.

I tried all the top rated Thai restaurants in London looking for the best and most authentic. Imagine my surprise to find Chef Bea cooking it in a pub in ulverston. Hands down the best Thai food I tasted outside Thailand. Thank you Bea!

The whole trip was ruined by just how poor this hotel is. 4 of the beds were damaged, the family room was just an unused function room, their was a glass window that looked directly into our room so made privacy an absolute non-starter. Add this to the fact our "private" bathroom was shared with every other guest and the lock was both too high and tight for my children to safely use without risk of them being locked in due to the lock being internal only and therefore made this site more unsafe for anyone with young children. The room also happened to be directly above the dancefloor and DJ booth meaning sleep wasn't exactly forthcoming until the music stopped. At one point I was playing guess the song with my family. The contact numbers were both ignored, the staff conveniently weren't available until (Midday) after we had to check out (11am) I wouldn't advise this to my worst enemy, nevermind people I actually liked! The whole trip was ruined by an awful room. No wonder they don't show images of the family room online!

Went today with the family. Really felt sorry for the lass behind the bar. Massively understaffed, and not on. She was absolutely brilliant. Need to up their game as just not on leaving her to try and cope with serving all the food and trying to manage the bar at the same time

I recently had the pleasure of dining at this fantastic pub and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations! The food was delicious - every dish was bursting with flavour and expertly prepared. From the appetizers to the desserts, each bite was a culinary delight. Not only was the food outstanding, but the staff service was impeccable. The waitstaff was attentive, and friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure that my dining experience was perfect. They were knowledgeable about the menu, offered great recommendations, and made me feel truly valued as a customer It was also dog-friendly. Overall, I highly recommend this pub to anyone looking for a top-notch dining experience. The combination of delectable food and exceptional service makes it a standout destination. I can't wait to return and indulge in more of their amazing dishes. Five stars all the way!

Very good value in centre of town. Old victorian house. Shared bathroom - however I could not get the shower to go warm. Clean, warm, well presented rooms. Fire doors to each room made it noisy. Good checkout time of 11am. Great for staying 9ne night if going out in town. I would book again.

We've eaten thai food here before and it was good but this time my husband had stir fried chicken and thai red curry sauce which was barely edible!. The cheap rubbery chicken wasn't stir fred, it was the same as I had in my green curry. The red thai sauce was the worst ever - salty, a strange consistency and lacking in flavour. He wouldn't complain and noone asked us if all was ok (they were too busy playing on their phones!). My thai green curry was nice but I'm afraid we wouldnt go back!

Great food, a really tasty Thai menu that represents good VFM. Let down this time by serving sour real ale. When we mentioned the issue, it was dealt with immediately, without fuss, questions, or queries, but it was such a shame that it happened in the first place. It won't stop me returning.

I stayed here with my Dad before we started the Cumbria Way. If the location was your only requirement for a room then I’d highly recommend the hotel. It’s extremely convenient for starting the Cumbria Way, but then arguably anywhere in Ulverston would be as it’s only a small town. The only other positive was the young girl working behind the bar, how she remains professional and smiling when she’s seemingly surrounded by chaos I have no idea. We stayed Thursday evening and having returned to Kings Arms after some food elsewhere we found a very drunken landlady with a very drunken local. Without going into detail, over the next few hours chaos ensued. You’re staying above a pub, so of course a level of noise is expected. However we experienced hours of drunkenness, shouting, fighting and singing until the early hours. Please don’t stay here if you’re wanting to sleep or feel safe. Judging by other reviews, it’s something that happens regularly. EDIT: To respond to the crazy reply below. I was introduced to her as the owner, I’ve read articles and reviews about her as the owner, and I watched her aggressively push my dad in complete confusion as the owner. Apologising would have been better instead of some myth about being on holiday.

I have been a member of Ulverston all my life, I love this establishment, especially on fine fest, dickensian festival, and the summer season. It catches the sun right outside the front and is dog friendly which is great for us as we have a 3 year old Lab!! which gets treats each time she comes in! It is a family run pub which we always come too!! Can’t wait to come in on fine fest as they have the best entertainment.

Attended a wedding reception at The Villa. Seems like a really nice spot. Service was good. Food was excellent. The car park and other access routes could benefit from a couple of loads of Type 1 and a whacker plate. The outside lights for the access routes need a lot of bulbs replacing.

Can't thank all the staff enough for a wonderful get away. Every member of staff we encountered from housekeeping calling to check if a twin or king sized bed was required. The check in staff super efficient and welcoming. The breakfast was super tasty, poached eggs cooked to perfection and front of house super pleasant and couldn't do enough to help. Thank you all for a wonderful stay !

Food here was spot on. I ordered the lamb tikka saga, plenty of tender meat. All staff were excellent and attentive. Will definitely return if working in the area again
