| Probably the best pub in Kirkby Lonsdale, but I'm afraid that isn't really saying much. Seemd by far the most popular with evening diners. Maybe because they have a different half price special every night. They also have a range of Kirkby Lonsdale Ales on offer, which were pretty decent. My family all had the half price fish and chips which did look lovely. Sadly, the fajitas I received weren't even up to the standard of the packet job you can do at home. Still it's cosy enough and has a nice mixed clientele, so you could do a lot worse. Pat_Bateman - 15 Apr 2011 11:49 |

| This is a very foody pub early on in the evening although it has a pool table in the front room on the left which makes you think it's a more traditional pub. There's a lounge type area to the right as you go in and to the back left hand side and round the back of the bar there are boothed seating areas that have the feel of railway carriage compartments or boxed pews in a church. The good thing is that after 8 or 9 o'clock it reverts back to a traditional local. The best thing is that it is an outlet for the local Kirkby Lonsdale Brewery of which there were a choice of 4. Cherkeby a 5.0 wheat beer was nice but very light. Jubilee and Radical are dark and reminiscent of Jennings Snecklifter. Jubilee being more chocolatey (70% Cocoa) and Radical (50% Cocoa) as a comparison, were very nice , although they both had a slightly bitter aftertaste that Snecklifter doesn't have. Did not get round to trying the Ruskins. They also had Lancaster Brewey's Red which was excellent. I'm not sure about the food here though it seemed very popular. Overall a great pub the only bad point being the lighting in the room to the right as you go in. Good for eating under I suppose but it felt like being under floodlights at a football stadium and killed the otherwise relaxed atmoshere later on. So much for energy efficient bulbs especially sticking through the tops of the shades to blind you, a bit like going back to gas lighting but harsher, lower wattages could have saved the need for a few powerstations.
