This once was a welcoming place now operated by jobs worths and only seem interested if you order food and drink, what happened to a frienly lakes Pub? Jenning why did you sell out to Marstons, shame on you

The ban tavern was once a welcoming pub, now the staff are aloof. The food good but over priced and the beer is probably the dearest in the lakes.
|
Can't understand why this pub never gets a Good Beer Guide entry. The beer is always superbly kept with the sparklers kept at bay. Last time I went (June 07), two additional beers were on offer as well as the usual Jennings range, giving a wide choice. Not a lot of atmosphere, I'll admit, but the staff has always been friendly and efficient. Can't comment on the food as I've never had any.

My favourite out of the twelve pubs I visited in Keswick. Beer was very good and the biggest range I found; didn't eat the food but given the way the group next to me scoffed it down I'd say that was very good too.
|
Very nice pub with well-kept Cocker Hoop. Worth a visit.
|
Pleasant pub with a full range of Jennings ales. It also has a small patio area to the rear, and serves good pub grub.
|
I really like this place. Food is always good and served in good time.

This pub is sometimes overlooked by the throngs hurtling towards Oddfellows or the Dog and Gun, but this is really worth a visit. The Jennings beers are kept superbly.

Friendly and very popular. Sells virtually the whole range of Jennings beers, albeit at tourist prices.
