Outgate Inn in South Lakeland

Great pub, top ales and a nice rural setting.

Really nice and friendly staff with decent pub food.

Stopped off on a rainy day after a walk around tarn hows. Found a quiet pub serving decent pub food with lager and ales to match. It was around £23 a head for our group, we ordered a drink and a meal each with few starters to share. Apparently the place has just been taken over by new owners but this didn’t seem to affect the quality of the service which was superb and friendly.

Super friendly new owners. A very Warm welcome to us all, even though all soaking wet with two very wet cold doggies, a nice warm fire was put on to dry us all out. The food was brilliant and huge portions! This is a “proper” pub with a lovely atmosphere.

Lovely pub. New landlady welcoming and friendly. Food was amazing!! Really enjoyed it! All staff helpful and accommodating. Very happy with little find while driving past.. definitely worth a stop!

Had a lovely lunch today in the garden. The sandwiches were lovely, as were the staff. Thankyou. A lovely break on our walk around the Hawkshead area, scenery stunning. Very dog friendly too.

Nice cool drinks after a long walk lovely service

Found this place whilst trying to find way back to Windermere..... Very quiet pub apparently only just reopened. The landlady and her little girl were very friendly and chatty and the beer was very nice.

Never been here, but constantly ask for my review

Signs outside with open times but all locked up looking like closed for business. Stuff on tables seen through dirty windows,not looking like it's ready to open any time soon! No indication of closure on their website

Staying only a few metres away from the outgate inn only to find it closed for most of the week. If meals not available then surely a beer would have been. It is the main summer holiday.

Arrived with hopes of dinner. Already found nothing available Hawkshead. Although all tables reserved, got us in on 1 if we could be out by time of reservation. Had meals & drink. Would've had pudding but no one came back to take our order. Burgers & chips. Good standard pub fare. A few dogs in, odd table or bar 4 drinks only.

Ordered fish and chips, was OK, but not stand out good. No tomato ketchup either, but I did see one of the staff with 2 bottles in hand later, must have been out to buy some.

Local and only a 2 minute drive or 25min walk from hawkshead. Great food and very friendly staff, good service and a big beer garden out the back.
