The Ski Bar in Copeland

Amazing service, definitely going to be revisit from now on

Very disappointing was told they do gf pizza bases but was told none available so was offered a cold wrap with not real chicken and lettuce took 50 mins to come , my husband had a pizza , we watched people come 30 mins after us but got their food before us - no idea why we had to wait 50 mins to get a pizza and a cold wrap with salad , very disappointed :( Won’t be calling again afraid

We love the ski bar and the food is delicious but we have waited over an hr for food was not given cutlery and my friend was given a wine glass twice that was dirty

What a outlook from the bar, great prices all around and the atmosphere is just perfect, excellent and highly recommended!

Lovely meal, brilliant views and great customer service. It’s also dog friendly

Nice setting, decent meals at a reasonable price

Food and drinks were quick and tasty, presented nicely. Entertaining to watch the wakeboarding and water assault course while on the deck. Dog friendly and a welcome break after walking to the Hodbarrow Lighthouse. Recommend the salt and pepper chips!

Did not have food had a drink nice place

Ideally placed by the waterside. Spent a few evenings chilling with a beer and having a bowl of chips. The meals brought out to others looked good but heard a few complaints about waiting times

We attended the Ski Bar multiple times during our stay at the local caravan park. The food we felt as a collective was all round okay. The service however was appaling as we received random stirs and tenseness towards me and my friends. Random comments were heard about us returning which you would expect a business to be happy about instead of angry. WOULD NOT RECOMMENDED!!

We had read good things about this bar but it really disappointed us. With the number of holiday makers around it should be so much better. Arrived at the bar at 6.40 to order food which was advertised as being available till 7.00. The service was unbelievably slow and although there were only 3 people in front of us we didn't get served until 6.55 only to be told they had stopped food service. After I protested that we'd queued for 15 minutes and that there was still 5 minutes to go the server said she'd 'ask the kitchen'. We were allowed to order but basically it was down to a choice of two dishes left. These then took nearly an hour to arrive, I mean how long does it take to fry up some portions of scampi and a beef burger? The food itself was ok but the service was just dire. Needless to say we didn't bother going back

Lovely spot to stop for a pint. Clean, friendly and lots of dogs 😁 good beer at a decent price. Not had food there yet so can't comment on it

Ended up here after taking wrong turn, and decided to stop and get a meal alongside a friend after a long drive. The food portion was generous and full of flavour. Honestly was not expecting much but it blew us away. Give this place a try, its great.

Food was good but very expensive, was 14.95 for sausage egg and chips, suppose they can charge what they like when they’re the only place here

food is really good so is hot chocolates friendly staff good atmosphere

Very very dissatisfied. A bar restaurant open not full, allowed us to take a seat and ask for menus advised us to order at bar, when ordering at the bar were advised no food without prior booking. Whilst I accept bars/ restaurants may have issues affecting service this is simply crap service and what felt like a lame excuse and in the absence of any clear indication of this requirement on entry , to allow customers to take a seat.

Very pleasant afternoon spent at this location. Nice atmosphere and drinks are very reasonably priced.

Had a lovely Sunday dinner there yesterday, staff are very pleasant. It's an absolutely lovely location overlooking the lagoon. Beautiful walks in the surrounding area.

We turned up after travelling from Glasgow to be told that we could have one drink and jabe to leave as they were closing at 2000. We didn't go back for the rest of our stay.

Ate here twice and both meals were delicious, hot and clearly freshly prepared. Did wait a bit for the food both times but was worth it. Good portions and value for money. I'm not keen on dogs and it is dog friendly.

Brill service, place was spotless when I went in with my mum, sister and my mums boyfriend. We ordered food at 6:50pm and didn't get it till 7:55pm. Waiting nearly over an hour food food is ridiculous but for how nice it is it's semi worth the wait. When I got my curly fries with my pizza the woman that served my curly fries slammed them on the table. It seemed rude of her to do that.

Great bar, friendly staff. Good pizza, delicious meat pie. Dog friendly which is great. Would recommend a visit if you’re passing

Really nice place. Food tasted great but we did wait a while for it. All the staff looked really young too, I felt like I should be asking for there ID. But really nice atmosphere. Would recommend.

Food average. Chips dry Very disappointed. Family visited. Niece left chicken wrap said the chicken was dry. Not to a good standard. Very poor value for money

I had the vegan burger which was lovely and lots of fries. Very dog friendly place we enjoyed sitting on the couch with the dog as she was able to settle easier. The bar staff serve quickly. It was an hour wait for food though.

Really good burgers! Good beer selection.

Food was lovely but wait time was far too long. We had a table booked and after complaining about our wait time of 45 minutes for our food we were told it would be another 30 minutes due to a party of 20 booked in the same time as us. They offered us a refund if we wanted to leave but as there was no where else to go we waited it out and the food was really really nice. Perhaps in the future customers should be made aware about possible wait times as it’s not really fair to make poeple wait that long especially when they’ve already booked a table.

It was closed when it were there for holidays.

Didn't eat here, but from what I saw, it was okay. Coffee wasn't up to much (barely warm), only other dog friendly eatery is the Cafe near Haverigg beach carpark, I can thoroughly recommend the food (and coffee) there.

We were watching a game of cricket at Haverigg Cricket Club and we asked the staff where we could get something to eat. They directed us along the coastal path to the holiday park. We didn't know what to expect with it being on a holiday park. To say we were surprised , in a good way is an understatement. The Cumberland sausage was first class but the accompanying chips were possibly the best I've tasted on a bar meal. The other half said her scampi was great. Now for the real plus. My grandsons chicken bites weren't just shop bought. They were properly made with high quality chicken. If / when were next at millom or haverigg cricket clubs, we will be heading straight here for lunch.

Booked a table for 18 people on the 5th may for my nephews birthday we even went and and pre ordered all of our food so when the day came service was brill at first until the food started to come out we ordered pizzas and when they came out they were burnt they didn’t even get my order right so I sent the pizza back and my friends lads pizza got sent back and they brought a “fresh” pizza for my friends lad which turned out it was the pizza I sent back they only had 12 orders of food out of 19 so 7 orders were completely missing my nephew had left with not eating a thing as they didn’t bring his food out and left very very upset on his birthday aswell! Absolute shambles no communication between there staff at all and it’s such a shame because we came here last year and the food was bob on will not be returning for food again.

Booked a table weeks in advance for my sons birthday, there was 18 people attending hense why we booked so far in advance. Got the pub and sat at our reserved tables.. waited for all our meals to arrive, half did… others didn’t! Waited 40 minutes incase there was a back log but then questioned a staff member who then confirmed that there was nothing else to come out! We had been in the day before to pre book so we all knew that it had been ordered but no my son who’s only 8 by the way had his birthday meal ruined because the pub messed up the entire order! Friends pizzas came out wrong. Other burnt and basically was a shambles! I would never ever recommend anyone to visit this place!

Staff were friendly and happy to help in any way possible. Food took about 30 minutes as the place was extremely busy. So I would have expected the roast diner to come with a freshly made Yorkshire pudding. There was enough time. Unfortunately, it was the chainsaw that had to try to enter into the offering. Other than that, the rest of the meal was cooked perfectly. I can and will recommend the meat pie. We will visit again soon.

Came for Pizza, amazing, absolutely superb, stone baked Pizzas. Cheese loaded chips were ...disappointing. Plain Chips were chunky and good. Good range of ales and lagers and a vast amount of flavoured gins. Dog friendly too.

Brilliant. Great portions, dog friendly, staff were friendly. Didn't wait long for food.

Cool bar, good food, tea and coffee. Very reasonable. Will return. Maybe get beer next time.

Lovely food 😋 livery atmosphere services good

Popped in for a pint while waiting for a takeaway pizza. Very nice pint served by a very pleasant staff member & the food was excellent. Nice atmosphere with great view over a lake.

Visited for the 1st time on Friday evening. We were welcomed by Paul who absolutely made our night 🙌 he's a lovely host & well & truly looked after us! He's a credit to this camp! Can't wait to return again, once the weather is better..looking forward to trying out the watersports 🤽‍♀️

Small place by the lake..confusion over our reservation..it did get rectified. 4 meals all good..the salad had an abundance of olives though..far too many! Roast dinner was great as was the steak pie

Its First time we have visited this place and it certainly won't be the last. Just had a roast dinner, and the food was amazing. The staff were so friendly, and everyone had a smile . It's also dog friendly, so to see all the dogs puts you in a good mood .

Took my great grandson for a meal to celebrate him becoming a teenager. I was not disappointed. We were a group of five and we all thoroughly enjoyed the food and the overall experience.

Absolutely lovely place, staff was so nice and friendly food excellent had a brill evening celebrating New year's eve

Just spent 2 nights in our camper on site and went to the ski bar, a nice, warm and friendly place to have a beer/drink and enjoy the food, which was lovely. You can take your dogs in too. We'll be back.

Food is bang on, great atmosphere too. Worth a visit. Always got a few deals on drinks etc

Beautiful steak & ale pie . Highly recommend

It was a slow evening when we stopped by. Service was slow and there were a couple of locals vaping inside all night. Atmosphere was lacking as a result but food was good.

Nice for a quick drink, we didn't have food there.

Lovely venue, great to watch the watersports taking place, very popular. The beer was good, and the food also very tasty. Definitely recommend

Can be busy, and food can take a while but it's good although drinks are pricey. Best to book at busy times.

Queued for about 15 minutes to place my order. Service was poor. Ordered a pint of fresh orange and soda. Served an orange cordial with flat water and told you can only order fresh orange and soda in a half pint. (So, put 2 through the till, no? 🙄) then the young waitress proceeded to talk about me to the young waiter right in front of me! Couldn't be bothered with a confrontation so I didn't speak up. Waited AGES for the food to arrive. By the time it came it was cold but very nice food. The whole place is let down by poor staff and not enough staff. Quite a few people were worse for wear for alcohol aswell and it was only early afternoon. Needless to say we wont be returning. It was also very expensive. £50+ for a family of 4 mains only (kids ordered from the children's menu) and no alcohol.

Excellent service good value for money

Food was really good, had some curly fries and chips to share between three and very much enjoyed outside with the view of the lake. Everyone was friendly with a smile. Great selection of drinks. Longer wait for food but no one was rushing so okay.

Great location with a watersports park outside, food was lovely.

Ended up at the ski bar a few nights in a row as not much else in the area. The food has been nice mainly burgers and pizzas available. A massive selection of drinks to choose from. We really liked the ski bar decor. The place can get really busy during eating hours so ideal to book a table.

We were checking out the area & visited these guys for tea & cake. The bar had a queue, but when I asked a lady about hot drinks we were asked to take a seat & she'd look after us. My laminated menu could have done with a clean, & there was a decent selection of food but next to no veggie options. I went for an oat milk hot chocolate & a piece of vegan lemon cake which were both fab. The prices were pretty decent too considering that this was the only cafe we could find.

Just a couple of drinks is all.

Food was lovely and piping hot. Nice little place with a lovely atmosphere. Special shout out to Aiden, made me a special cocktail for my birthday, a special pizza for vegetarian daughter because they had no veggie meatballs and was just a nice happy friendly guy, credit to the place :)

Excellent food, service and dog friendly!

Food was lovely, however the ladies toilets could do with a clean, and some the staff could do with a smile

Every time I’ve been here.. granted it’s four occasions between last July and this July, there has been some excuse to why they won’t serve food. It’s 6pm, Tuesday evening during school holidays. Never know a pub that serves food what just hates making money. Well these must because they give any reason not to cook for guests. This place would be a gold mine if it was ran properly. Embarrassing .. or maybe I’m unlucky and picked the wrong four times to visit. There won’t be a fifth ..

The steak and ale pie, try it if it hasn't sold out! Amazing 🤩

Quick , friendly , good food 😋 , at relatively good price , cold beer 🍺. Recommended

Great waterside location, expected rushed service with dodgy food. Wrong, immediate fussy service and I had the mother of steak pies, full of falling apart steak. I have had a lot of pies and this was a champ. £14 for a giant plate with crispy big chips. Next time I'm here I'll be back

Nice wood chalet interior. Friendly staff and quick service. Had to clean some food from chair though.

We had a fantastic meal last night at the Ski Bar on Port Haverigg. Excellent fast service too. We would highly recommend you pre book a table as it's very busy. Thanks Danny and team for a lovely evening 👌

Great food, great services and a great atmosphere

Great location, staff amazing why not try a beer or a glass of wine to go with there pizza’s

absolute nightmare, took over an hour for food to finally come. people came after us, and still got there food way before us.

Do enjoy visiting this unique centre for good food drink and company y. Highly recommend on a warm summers day.

What a lovely bar this is , we ate lunch once and dinner twice. I do advise to book though. The staff are so chatty and friendly and the views from outside to the sea inlet are lovely. I loved watching people having fun on the inflatables and paddle boards. Dog friendly too and loads of water bowls around for the dogs.Prices for food are reasonable considering the locality.

Came to haverigg for a night away. Great stay and beautiful scenic place. Visited the skiing bar for soke food and a fee drinks as the weather was beautiful and right on the lake. The food was nice, the drinks reasonably priced and refreshing. It was definitely a place to come for entertainment, minus the little hiccup at the end it was a great night amd very entertaining.

My second time eating here as my mum has moved to Millom , always friendly helpful staff , excellent food , nice bar and when it’s sunny it’s lovely to sit outside with views over the lake , Highly recommend

Bar food, pizzas, snacks, wines and spirits. We enjoyed a few beers in the sunshine while watching the fun on the lake. Had some cheesy chips but didn't stop for food. . Great location, nice bar with Picknick tables outside. Ran out of ice. Could do with more staff.

They need to hire staff members with IQ’s of at least double digits. Popped in at 14:40 for a coffee and a plate of chips only to be told that we couldn’t sit on the empty tables as they were reserved for guests who were arriving hours later. One of which was reserved for 18:15. Astonishing stuff and I dread to think how much business they must lose if this is the norm.

Great venue. Nice food. Let down by unfriendly staff. It was obvious that the staff were friendlier and more interactive with regulars. This was observed over a period of 2 hours. Shame as it was off-putting as a first timer using the bar.

Lovely bar, good choice of beer and gins, not fastest service and prices a bit steep, but all in all really nice.

Great location on the harbour watching water ski whilst having drinks and food we sat next to the water outside so we were served in a take away style. Food was good quality too.

Nice place with pleasant views and good food 👍

I’ve been here several times and always enjoyed the food and the service, always excellent. This week my little puppy became unwell and I wanted to make him some toast to settle his tummy but I had no butter as I’d not brought anything with me. Our lovely bar attendant, Brian got me some butter for little Dougie to have some food and get better as he now has. Thank you Brian, little things make all the difference. Dougie and I will be back soon x

We’ve been here a few times and always had great service,the food is always amazing and great value. this week we came for a few days but our puppy became a little unwell. We we’re staying in a caravan behind the ski bar and I wanted to make little Dougie some toast to settle his tummy but had no butter. Our lovely bar attendant, Brian got me a little pot from the kitchen to make sure Dougie could have some food. A lovely gesture, he wouldn’t take payment. Little Dougie is now much better. Thank you Brian x

Great beers and fantastic staff, will be back.

friendly staff and great bar meals

Came here for lunch. It was very nice. Friendly staff.

Nice bar with great views over ski lake. Good food and drink, very popular with visitors and locals. Worth a visit if you're in the area.

Nice food, dog-friendly, cosy atmosphere

Lovely food with a good choice of options and plenty of drinks on offer, friendly staff, great atmosphere. Love coming here after a long walk.

Great place to eat and drink with a wide choice of drink, expansive menu and themed nights. It's got buzz and atmosphere aplenty.

Absolute terrible service from staff. Booked a table with plenty of notice and asked if Gluten free options were available, which they said yes. Then arrived to be told we don’t have anything, so a bowl of chips was the only option as we have a family member who traveled to be there who suffers with coeliac. Then only to be ignored by staff numerous times, lemonade tasted terrible and had to be changed, to finish it off they didn’t bring one of our meals out then it took a further 20 minutes to come, by the time it arrived everyone had finished eating. Not a great experience.

Good atmosphere, Great and friendly service, Simple food but well cooked and delicious, Pizzas are fab and recommended. Good opening times as well throughout week and weekends.

Visited the Ski Bar today had a BBQ chicken pizza and salt and pepper chips. Both were delicious but the chips were exceptional. Staff were efficient and friendly.

Tried the Ski Bar out after hearing good feedback about it , nice surroundings, friendly helpful staff , excellent service , It’s dog friendly which is lovely too. I had the scampi and chips which was very tasty and plenty of it , my mum had the meat free burger which she said was yummy , we both had a dessert ,strawberry gateau and the cheese cake , no pics as it got eaten straight away, both yummy , highly recommend a visit , will definitely be back

really feels like a ski lodge food was very good and drinks reasonable priced good service and welcome from the staff

Great Place for drinks and food!! Staff lovely 😍

Great little place, friendly staff. Would definitely return.

A nice bar with decent food, set in a good location.

Food good but have to wait too long for it

I have given one star because I couldn't do any less! I went today with my disabled father, who uses an electric wheelchair, my husband and I and also a friend with a 1 year old baby, which required a pushchair. It was raining very heavily so we waited in the car until their advertised opening time of 12 midday for the place to open for lunch. Just after that I went to check if the doors were open and found the door at the top of the rampway was locked so I went around to the front of the cafe to the front door. Once inside I asked if they could open the rampway door, which they did, but noticed a step of around 4 inches, this would be impossible to get a wheelchair over and there was also inadequate room at the top of the ramp to manoeuvre a wheelchair or pushchair into position if that door could have been used. It was suggested that I should use the main entrance which had a double door. Unfortunately, the second door could not be opened because 'someone ' had broken the catch and it wouldn't open.It was then suggested that the side door could be used, but again this wasn't possible because 'someone ' had broken the handle and the door had to be wedged shut! I was told that some people in wheelchairs could manage to get through the single main door, but as it was torrential rain outside I decided I didn't want to risk my father getting soaked whilst trying to gain entrance. We also had a baby in a pushchair, which, I feel would have been another impossibility to get through the narrow single door. I told the staff member that we would go elsewhere for our lunch. I had checked online to see if The Ski Bar was wheelchair friendly as it had been recommended as a nice place to eat, but unfortunately as it isn't wheelchair or pushchair friendly we didn't get a chance to try it!

Never had a bad meal here all week, the food was very tasty and nicely presented, the portion sizes were large (not complaining as it was all demolished) lol! Great selection of burgers and pizzas , and the chips were spot on. Highly recommend!
