I recently went to meet a good friend Ant Everest here in torrential rain ️ I was saturated as I'd rode my motorbike from Eskdale (Yellow Warning so it was good to be out of the rain for a while. The staff were very accommodating and very welcoming Unfortunately on my way back to Eskdale I had a bad accident on my motorbike which saw it written off but at least I walked away from it Service: 5

A lovely pub in a great town. Service: 5 Location: 5

With the launch of the new menu they had on Monday, we came for lunch and had the new Chorizo, Sun Blushed Tomato and Olive Tapenade baguette and the Barbs Pizza! Everything was impeccable and the service was top notch too! 100% recommend to anyone Service: 5

This is not a review of the food, as I didn't eat. Nor is it the accomodation, as I didn't stay. It is a review of a pint of Guinness I had there today. Tuesday afternoon, nice and quiet.. popped in for a pint. £5.10p. Very reasonable. Unfortunately downhill from there. I'll bullet point the problems.. to avoid a drawn out affair.. 1. The glass wasn't dry. You can tell this from the creeping mottled effect visible. 2. The head is about 5mm 3. There is Guinness spilt down the outside of the glass. 4. It tasted utterly awful. The first three problems on this list are forgivable.. but the last isn't. I've had many pints of Guinness, in many places.. but this was in the bottom 3. Very disappointed. Given that you can buy a four pack from the supermarket for roughly the same outlay.. people bemoan pubs going out of business... but do we ask why? Bartenders being able to pour/keep a decent pint helps..
