user reviews of Scafell Hotel, Keswick

please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.

we popped in trying to find something to eat and had missed serving times by 10 mins the barmaid was adamant we couldn't have anything basic such as a sandwich, we ended up getting the 79 bus into Keswick for food at The Dog.

Think it has too much of a monopoly so doesn't really care what folk think.

Agree to an extent with the last post that it seemed to be tourists in the majority, but there was a good selection of beer including Copper Dragon and the atmosphere, whilst subdued, was far from unfriendly.

Very much a place for tourists, and therefore quite expensive. A few ales on offer and food of good sized portions and tasty but generally this place felt unfriendly and unloved.

There is a climbers’ bar at the back of the Scafell Hotel which is probably the best place to have a drink in Borrowdale. It comprises three interlinked spaces with a fireplace, and well managed fire, dividing one from the main bar area. The bar itself carries half a dozen changing local beers and there is a menu of informal modestly priced food (and a huge array of sauce sachets on one end of the bar). If there is a disadvantage it is that it is quite dark in summer. But on my visit in December there was a real buzz, the fire was warm and the bar staff were very welcoming.
