The White Eagle Pub, Anglesea

Very modern pub, tastefully decorated and with stunning views. A few cask ales, regularly the wonderful Weetwood Eastgate Ale. The food is very good, too.

Eagle and Child Inn, Staveley

A great pub, tucked away from the bypass, but definately worth a stop. Four real ales on tap, good food and an atmosphere that's quite unique, especially when candlelit, as it is after dark. If you're heading into the Lake District, give yourself a treat and come off the Staveley bypass for this one!

The Watermill Inn, Ings

I'm a regular visitor to this superb pub. Can't imagine how anyone could think it over-rated - what exactly do you want? The range of beers is fantastic, I have very rarely (though not never, I admit) had a bad pint here. The food is straightforward (a sauce is called a sauce and not a 'jus') and well cooked. Friendly staff and a cheerful atmosphere add to the experience. And there is no telly and no piped music - both big pluses in my book. Excellent. RIP Alan.
