Cumbrian Arms Neighborhood Pub

It's hard to believe it's been 21 years since the Cumbrian Arms opened its doors. Robert Pam, Richard Kay, and Harry Rose have seen a lot of changes since then. I recently visited in March and had the pleasure of meeting the new owner. The place still looks fantastic with some wonderful updates, making it the perfect spot for a fun night out. Wishing them all the best for the future.

Within walking distance of our motel, we breezed on over after a long ride on the Trans-Canada highway. We enjoyed a couple of glasses of Rickard's and two plates of tasty nachos. The waiter and waitress were very friendly and fun to talk to. Recommended!

Stopped in for a beer and a bite, bar tender was a nice guy, pub was full of people I think who new each other. Had a few beers and Nachos, the nachos were a single layer of chips with cheese and peppers and onion, prepared by the bar tender.

This is a pub a traditional, old fashioned, beer, ale, and working people pub. You can tell by the decor and the accents of the people. You can still hear the Scottish brough, the Irish lilt and the English accents over the beers. The bartenders know you by name, the jokes are shared with everyone, darts are fun, musicians on certain nights, and games on others and it has excellent pub food, and yes just like in the old UK, you can bring you kid in but you have to sit along the wall then due to ALCB regulations if you do. The beers they serve are excellent to engaging (new to me! Your neighbours are so glad to have a place to meet up with you when your home is a mess but your pub doors are always open. And for those older folk or hard of hearing people great place to meet up: You can actually hear each other talking because they don't blare their music. Tip the bar keep they are more than deserving!!

The bartender was very friendly and served everyone in the restaurant with a smile. The locals were welcoming and hospitable. The atmosphere of the restaurant was inviting and they even had dart boards (unfortunately, I had left mine at home). The menu may be limited, but I tried the soup special and the BBQ wings, both of which were delicious (especially on Mondays when wings are only .35 cents each). The bartender mentioned that they will be expanding and revamping the menu in the coming months. The new kitchen manager even came out to greet me. I am excited to return in a few months to try out the new menu. Thank you for the excellent service!
