The Boot Inn in Copeland

Friendly pub in a fabulous location with great food - what more could you want?!

Fantastic place to stop if you're heading westbound from the centre of the Lakes towards either the Coast or the Scafell Pike route. Very well priced, lovely reception and selection of pints. Highly recommend.

Such friendly staff, lovely food, really accommodating to us. Beautifully located after a trip using the steam train!

Had an excellent Bank Holiday Roast at the Boot Inn! The vegetebales were fresh and not boiled to death. The stuffed chicken was very tasty and the atmosphere was relaxed.

Tasty lunch, great service, amazing location

This place is one of my favourite places to visit well worth the 6 and half hour drive the only thing I was disappointed with was the beef rib it’s just fat and hard skin and a big bone obviously but the actual meat was amazing but you only get a VERY small amount for the price but the rest of the food one the menu was very nice.

Love this place, walked past for many years and this year we decided to go inside and I am so glad we did. Food was excellent and prices weren’t too bad either

Friendly service and great food.

Such a friendly pub, great service, comfy beds and a wonderful location. Off the the main Eskdale road, so no passing traffic, lovely and peaceful. Food and beer are good, too

Just a short walk from the train station we had a lovely lunch in the gardens of the Boot inn. Great food at a reasonable price, friendly and professional staff. We really enjoyed ourselves here, thank you.

Awesome pub in the Eskdale valley. As someone who isn't from the lakes but visits often I'd say this is the most idilic/picturesque part of the lakes It's quiet, local and just what you expect. Foods excellent, ale is great and is very quiet and relaxing. The boot is a 5.minute walk from the Ravenglass train, which we went on, and the mill is a 1 minute walk - kids loved it.

Fab currys and Cheese and onion pie

A lovely pub with wonderful views of the hills around you.

Had evening dinner and it was excellent. No complaints whatsoever.

Really good bed and breakfast. We went for my boyfriend’s birthday with another couple and had a great time! The Scottish girl that works there was brilliant and really nice with us. Room n 1 was really pretty and comfy, food was good, tandoori lamb was yummy and sticky toffee pudding also. The only problem was that they didn’t communicate us properly the checkout time so we were on a rush to leave the room. But apart from that great experience thank to the whole team.

Love this pub come every year to meet Scott and his partner Jez. Food is fabulous, staff are lovely.

My wife and I called for lunch during a drive around the area. Nice and tidy with a pleasant ambience very friendly and polite staff. Food was very nice (I had cheese pie, wife had fish goujon chiapata) and was reasonably priced, I can't comment on the beer but it looked to have a good selection. Good car parking and dog friendly however ours stayed in the car due to being old and tired 😄

A superlative walker’s inn. It has comfy, stylish, cozy rooms. The food is top class with interesting menu. The staff could not be more helpful and pleasant (super for vegetarian and gluten free diners). It sets the standard by which other inns should be judged.

Love going here when me and my friends go to Boot Beer Festival. Great food and nice selection of drinks.

Popped in for a quick meal and a pint. They were completed booked up for meals but managed to squeeze us in with no hesitation. Very welcoming staff and the food was beautiful. Perfect place to sit on a summers evening 😊

During hiking in the Lake District we had an overnight stay at the Boot Inn. The rooms were clean and convinient. The true gems are the staff and the kitchen. The staff is very friendly and courteous. The food is exquisit. We enjoyed our stay.

We stayed for one night while cycling coast to coast. Despite arriving late and and at the end of service they couldn't have been more friendly. The food was top class and the room was really nice. They allowed us to bring our bikes into the pub overnight for safe storage as well which was really appreciated.

Lovely pub! We went for dinner whilst staying in the area. We all enjoyed the food, waitresses were all lovely and although we didn't bring our dog, it's great that they do allow dogs 😀

Really tasty food and lovely staff

Great place to stay and the perfect location for exploring the western Lakes. Comfortable rooms, lovely food and beers plus friendly and welcoming staff.

On a walking holiday, this was our local. The food was really excellent, the staff were helpful and friendly, recommend, recommend

Lots of vegan options. Food is great and hospitality even better. Very dog friendly.

Awesome pub with brilliant staff and food 🥳

Friendly staff, nice coffee fancy hot chocolates and cake selection. We didn't have dinner. GF Coconut cake was very dry.

Was in last week very fast service. Lovely food good price nice and warm n clean pub. Bar staff very friendly.

We planned our trip to Boot Inn to coincide with a walk from Wasdale Head on Easter Sunday. After our 5 mile trek it was great to be welcomed to this friendly pub. We were originally booked to eat inside but opted to sit in the pub garden as it was a lovely day. I had the beef and my partner had the lamb, the roast dinners were surprisingly good for the location, totally unexpected in such a small village. In particular we loved the variety and flavour of the vegetables that came with the roasts, the meat was also great quality. Such a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon. The staff are also all very attentive and friendly, and the choice of beers is a plus. Would definitely recommend.

Lovely place, staff were so friendly

Lovely pub! We visited after traveling on the steam train with 4 kids and a dog, we were given a nice big table. My partner is coeliac and can't have gluten, the staff are knowledgeable about allergens and cross contamination, they have an allergen menu and the chips were also safe to eat.

Stayed here for a few nights recently and it was excellent. The staff were very welcoming and friendly, all of our meals were delicious and the Inn is very well situated to explore the local fells including Sca Fell. Would absolutley recomend.

We stayed at the nearby NT campsite, went for a walk with the dog and finished off with a pint and a packet of crisps - glorious. Whilst there booked for an evening meal. Service was fantastic, food was brilliant, beer smashing and Snoop Dawg was allowed in too. I can highly recommend this place and if it’s still on, try the Apple and Peach Crumble with a kick.

Absolutely delicious, staff were wonderful and the atmosphere is great would highly recommend to everyone

Beautiful place, good selection of beers and gin. Had a delicious fresh and warm scone. Set in a wonderful location, minutes away from the fells.

Great location...fantastic food....friendly staff

The best food and service ever! A must visit if your are in the Boot area. Couldn’t rate it higher :)

Great food and very friendly service, close to Eskdale NT campsite.

The best Sunday lunch ever, even better than my wife's, but Dot tell her. Great service, dog friendly, good price beautiful location.

Absolutely fantastic place. We booked for a Sunday lunch, booking was easy and had confidence as they took my number just in case. The beer garden and play area where very charming and peaceful. Small field for the play area with a couple of swings. Patio type area with quite a few wooden tables and chairs. Inside we were greeted very warmly and seated by a very friendly woman. Menus provided quickly and order taken promptly, lovely selection on the vegan and vegetarian specials board as well as the main menu and children's menu. The food was delicious, hot and served really quickly. Even so we never felt rushed and had a lovely table in a little nook. We were playing a few games of uno around waiting for our mains and then waiting for our desserts and when we hadn't quite finished a game when our youngest daughter had gone out to play we were told there was no rush to leave as the table wasn't booked again for a few hours. It was so relaxing and the food was amazing and good service that it will be our go to pub for food whenever we are in Eskdale now, thoroughly recommend the place if you are in the area.

Amazing pub. Perfect setting. Amazing foods and beers. Great for dogs and family's. Beautiful fire place to sit next to. Amazing staff really friendly and helpful

Brilliant food, atmosphere 👌 real fire, welcoming staff.

I came here by chance. Four nights. What a choice that was. Lovely place and people. Stewart and Anita, and Katie and Jay. And Bronson. It is one of the nicest and friendly places I have ever stayed. I'm 61 and have been around. If you like a curry. We'll.... Stewart makes the best curries from scratch. Better than Abduls takeaway around the corner.
