The Crafty Baa in Mendip

Guys , constructive criticism here. If you are really a craft beer bar then be one. Half hearted at best. I had the house IPA and it was undrinkable. Can choice was incredibly disappointing. I’ve been in this scene for a long time, just decide what you want to be because you are not craft.

Small but perfectly formed. Great bar with good music playing, very quirky decor so lots to entertain the eye. Casual dining with sharing plates absolutely spot on.

I really wanted to like this bar and o can see what they’re trying to achieve. I love IPA but every beer we tried was bad. Just poorly kept and tasteless I think. Ended up with a headache made worse by the dreadful music. What a shame

Nice. Very busy but a cut above the normal bars in Keswick. Very good choice of beers and drinks. A bit cramped but it's only small

Fab Food and unreal choice of beer. Just visiting Keswick and by chance saw this fab tap room. The food was absolutely awesome too. Super large.portions and the service was top notch

We'd been to this bar's namesake in Windermere before but not visited this one. We came just because a local singer was performing here. Plenty of choice of drinks - something for everyone. Great staff who managed the bar well when it was really busy. We really loved the seating area under the stairs - a really cool place for two people to sit out of the way!

Popped In here as we were staying locally in Keswick,great bar and very quirky,staff very friendly and very comfortable in the main area with the log burner on,actually came on twice over the break and will definitely be popping in next time we are in Keswick

So- Gail and I were in The Lakes and due to the rain thought an afternoon checking the local pubs was on the cards. The Crafty Baa is warm and welcoming, Dog Friendly. Billy loved the log fire. Great selection of Beers and Ciders. Loved the fact they sold Mild, a Fav of mine thats hard to find. Deffo worth a visit, something for everyones taste. The Barman was really helpful explaining The choice of beers.

Quirky, and very interesting small pub with huge selection of unusual beers and whiskies. Good music, dog friendly, and has a log burner downstairs. Love the use of repurposed items to decorate.

We have been in the one in Windermere many times. And this time we were staying in Keswick for the weekend. We popped in a couple of times for drinks and a couples sharing platter. With cheeses, olives, meats and salad etc. there was 3 of us adults and the board was massive and we couldn’t eat it all between us. But the platter was lovely and would highly recommend. The staff are very welcoming and friendly and drinks are good variety. We enjoyed it and would go back.
