This Pub is Closed Long Term

A traditional back-street local that inhabits its own time warp best described as a 'Marmite' experience, the pub has a strong local following and a sociable house lurcher. Up to five well-kept changing beers complement the tied pump. An evocative rock juke box prompts spontaneous dancing. Classic old films shown on Thursdays; also newspapers, books and games. Occasional themed party nights. The partially covered rear patio has an idiosyncratic atmosphere. The pub is closed during Appleby Fair week in June.

Information for this venue is provided by the Westmorland (Solway Sub Branch) Branch of CAMRA
