| OK I have been going into this place for a long time now, I have also stayed there a couple of times,I love this place,but what to say?If you have been lucky enough to have been in on an evening of folk music in front of its roaring fire in the middle of winter or have sat outside in the sun with a cold pint of cider after a trip to Scafell and back you will know what I mean.Sadly I too have met one or two of the staff when they are in the mood to be just plain rude,in fact one new year eve lunchtime back in 1990 the Barman on duty told me I would get a punch in the mouth if I did not queue,now maybe I should of been more aware of what was going on around me but I had been in this place many times before and never saw anyone in a line at the bar.Sometime a year or so later I once again came acoss the same barman being rude to another customer I quess, I hope he has moved on now though I know he was,is a native of the valley.All in all though this is a great place, there can be few other places in this country with so much going for it, so much character. canigou - 27 Nov 2008 16:37 |
| I've been to this pub on a few occasions now... the service is terrible and the staff are rude. The coffee is rubbish, but the beer is pretty good. I'd recommend a visit for the scenery and beer, that's all. Arthurthecaterpillar - 26 Nov 2008 20:49 |
| Excellent pub with plenty of real ale and decent basic food which is exactly what is needed after a day in the hills. Good honest pub with good beer. The customers are only there to enjoy the ale, food and chatter. And no music or fruit machines, thankfully. Bonzos_beard - 4 Sep 2008 21:56 |
| Superb basic boozer. The range can be somewhat limited but there's usually Old Peculier to rely upon. Can get very packed at weekends over the summer. Excellent staff, in my experience. EFC1878 - 20 Aug 2008 00:20 |
| Nipped in here for the first time in a few years last Wednesday. Lots of real ales, but a bit disappointed that they were nearly all ordinary bitters: Jennings Cumberland, Theakston XB, Black Sheep Bitter & Ale (one pint - Ok), Yates Bitter(two pints - very good); there was only Old Peculiar representing anything a bit different. Personally I would like to see a range of beers if so many are on tap; a mild, porter or IPA would be nice to try, depending on what you feel like coming off the hills. veryfasteddie - 18 Aug 2008 21:55 |
