Had an evening meal with friends and we had a lovely meal-where they catered for veggies, gf as well as meat eaters! Friendly staff and a lovely atmosphere.

The amazing leg of lamb made up for our initial wariness when walking in, the table may have wobbled and the cutlery etc may have been cheap but the food and wine was great!

I always try and get something from the Specials board in restaurants and this was no exception. Thai Green curry with a choice of chicken or prawns sounded lovely so chose the chicken option. When it came (forgot to take photo) it was the most uninspiring plate of food I think I’ve ever seen. Sadly it didn’t taste very good either but the main issue was the chicken which had been sliced and was as dry and tough as leather. It was barely edible. We called the young waiter (who was very good and is the reason for a 2star review and not a 1star) we decided to get the steak and ale pie instead as one of the other couples had this and it looked nice. However it took ages to come and the other 4 couples we were with had long finished their meals. We then felt really pressured to finish as soon as possible as everyone else was waiting. When it did come the peas were rock hard and barely edible 🤦🏻♂️. When we got the bill I went to the bar to pay and even though it wasn’t that busy and the bar and there were 3 members of staff behind the bar it took me about 3-4mins to get their attention. All in all a very disappointing experience all round.

We stayed for three nights and had a meal each of those nights, followed by a cooked breakfast. The hotel itself is clean and the bedroom pleasant to stay in, and the bathroom completely modern and very satisfactory. The bedroom reflects the ambiance of the entire place, which is perfectly adequate but in need of a touch of TLC. The overall sense of the hotel is a place which is full of character. If there is an outstanding feature of the hotel, it is the staff that work in it. From the General Manager Rebecca to the bar staff, the hotel owners, the serving team at breakfast, there was nobody who was other than pleasant and willing to put themselves out. And Rebecca sets the scene for the rest of the staff, having gone above and beyond to assist us. Thank you for being an excellent base for a wonderful time in the Lakes.

The staff and the owners were absolutely brilliant, engaging and a bit too talk to. The food was also amazing and to top it all it had great beer 👍

Stayed two nights at this very busy pub. All staff were pleasant & helpful. Room was smallish but fine & tidy. Excellent breakfast & meals were good. Would stay here again if visiting Pooley Bridge.

Arrived in the bar at around 7.20pm on a Wednesday and my family and I waited to be seen to by someone. At around 7.25pm we were attended to. We said we were looking for a table for 3 for dinner and were told that they stopped taking orders for food at 7.30pm and so were summarily dismissed. No apology, no would you like to have a drink, the server just walked off. Unsurprisingly, we didn’t stay for a drink and won’t be eating here whilst we are here on our break either.

We ate at The Sun Inn one night on a recent break to Pooley Bridge. Despite it being very busy we manage to get a table. The staff were friendly, even though they were so busy. The food was fine, lamb shank and fish pie. We also ordered an apple crumble for dessert but had to send it back as it hadn't been warmed up before service, but that was soon dealt with.

The Sun Inn in Pooley Bridge is a delightful spot with great food and wonderful hospitality. The menu offers a delicious variety of well-prepared dishes that are sure to please any palate. Special thanks to Andrew and Amber for their exceptional service, making our visit truly memorable. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the area!

Called in for lunch, was greeted quickly and seated. Menu varied, food was delicious, fish and chips were fab. Plenty of outside seating too, for people with kids and dogs to enjoy.

My experience of the Sun Inn was as follows: - Staff helpful - Rooms clean and tidy - restaurant service poor (I waited an hour for food) - food quality poor (tough meat, cold veg) I’m staying here for another night but have booked elsewhere to avoid a repeat experience. I can’t recommend anywhere that delivers low standard service/food but perhaps this was an off day and I was just one guy

In my opinion, the most traditional of the 3 'inns' in the village, and all the better for it! A relaxed (and popular) bar area serving good food & drink, friendly & efficient staff and a fabulous breakfast to set you up for a day on the fells. Decent room with all facilities you would expect. Would certainly stay here again.

My wife and I visited this place on a Thursday evening in April. We ordered a sharing dish as we weren’t that hungry. Initially, I commented that the price of the dish was a little expensive but the landlord later explained that it was a dish for 2 and also that the prices were in keeping with their local competitors. We found this to be correct. Indeed, food in this beautiful area is a more expensive than a lot of places but then so is everything else such as business rates, rents etc…. Even Ice Cream at the local shop is expensive. I guess the general high prices of everything (not just pub food and drink) in this beautiful area of the world is the trade off for the stunning scenery. With pleasant staff, fair management and nice surroundings we would recommend a visit to this pub.

We come to The Sun Inn regularly, the food is always delicious and to an excellent standard, the staff are always very friendly, helpful and accommodating. There is a great relaxed atmospheric environment, a fantastic place to go for a beer and food after a day on the fells. Always very cosy with the open fires in there. There is a nice large beer garden which catches the sun all day in the summer time. I would recommend The Sun to anyone staying in Pooley Bridge.

Long wait on food. 45mins. Table was booked for 7pm never eaten here before so didn't know we had to order from the bar took a while to figure that out. Had to ask where food was 30mins after ordering to be told there's a backlog. Came 15mins later, had to find someone to complain about the food as the burger was raw in the middle. Waitress said " is that too pink" like we were in the wrong for sending it back. Other tables around us also had a long wait or missing food. Toilets were extremely dirty. Very gutted as we always come here for a drink when in pooley bridge but unfortunately won't be eating here again.

Visit here as a family of 5 on Easter Sunday, ordered the beef, it was inedible I broke to fork crying to cut it. Staff were unhelpful and ignorant. Feel completely robbed won't be returning

What a find. The food was amazing and the staff were warm and welcoming. I had the fish pie and my husband had the steak pie and said it was the best steak pie he had ever had. Fantastic selection of ales with my husbands favourites. Great pint! We can see how they have achieved a 5 star cask marque rating. Highly recommend will visit again soon.

The Sun Inn has long been one of our favourite pubs, always a warm welcome, literally.... the log burner kicking out some heat....and the staff offering a genuine welcome.. We both had the steak and ale pie and a portion of onion rings to share... definitely a 10/10 beautiful meaty steak, not one piece of gristle or fat, beautiful gravy... we've booked for later in the week with family.... I'm sure at least 2 of us will be ordering the pie again!

Great visit- lamb shank beautiful- super ale. My wife had fish pie which was equally delicious. The pubs in a great spot and dog friendly. Lovely young girl behind the bar. Super young lad serving- very attentive nod bothered. Would have given it 5/5 if it wasn’t for the “fog horn on legs” women totally dominating the room with utter drivel, resulting in the lovely landlord trying to mask her voice by putting music on (he actually said this is what he was doing). Unfortunately it didn’t work. She ruined our visit. Recommended (if she isn’t there).

We were staying nearby and were looking for somewhere to eat. We tried the Sun Inn for the first time. We were not disappointed. I tried the steak and ale pie, one of my favourite meals. I have to say it was the best, (by a long way) that I have ever had. We were nearby a couple of days later and I thought I would try the Cumberland sausage and mash but steak and ale came out instead, once again not disappointed. The hospitality was superb. Very friendly staff. I would recommend this pub for the food and friendly welcome. I will definitely be returning next time I am in the area.

Stayed here for two nights and it’s somewhere we will definitely return to. All the staff are very friendly and helpful. The accommodation was good, warm and value for money. The food is excellent and you get large portions. Loads to do around Pooley Bridge too. Cannot wait to return .

Been several times and as always a very pleasant stay , room very comfortable and clean , but feel the need to make a comment it was very cold outside and at 6 pm we went down to the bar for drinks and noticed the log / fire wasn't lit so we thought we would head along to the Crown and both there Log burners were roaring away so we decided to sit ourselves down Infront of one and enjoy the cozy evening atmosphere , After a great night's sleep breakfast was served in the top small bar as we had our dog and it was superb quality served by a very polite and friendly young girl , there was another couple sitting , the one thing missing was again a log burner sitting there not lit ! What a difference that would have made that into a real cozy room for our breakfast ! We will return but not until next summer .

What a weird place, stiff atmosphere in the walkers bar area and though the wife’s fish and chips were actually good, the burger I had was terrible. Honestly I’ve had better burgers from a back alley kebab van. Burger was a horrible frozen patty, really poor. Odd

Avec un excellent service, nous avons mangé un pork belly bien présenté et délicieux. Le burger de mon mari était bon. Nous avons bu un vin espagnol organique. Pour finir le sticky toffee pudding a superbement clos ce repas. En vacances, nous pensons y revenir demain.

Ein nettes Ambiente in Pooley Bridge. Man sitzt draußen sehr schön und drinnen sehr britisch. Das Personal ist freundlich. Leider ist das Essen nicht besonders gut. Fish and Chips waren fein, doch die Nudeln waren katastrophal.

Wij bestelden een Cajun chicken burger en de kinderen nuggets met frietjes, niet meteen complex om klaar te maken, maar toch moesten we anderhalf (!) op ons eten wachten. Het eten was wel lekker, maar de lange wachttijd heeft onze pret danig bedorven.
