very eclectic clientele in here, certainly an interesting range of characters. And the barman and his excellent choices of music made for a fine Saturday night atmosphere in here. Five Robbies ales (including Old Tom) and a cider. Don’t miss this one, it’s one of the best in town.

Pleasant, if dark, pub. Another Robinsons pub in the town and this one had 5 handpulls of which 4 where used. Mainly open plan, the snug area to the left housed a piano. Beer garden to the rear which I didn't bother with. Trooper Something Of The Dead was my beer choice though there were other Robbies beers on. Nice enough and worth a visit.

My final pub on a Thursday evening crawl of Ulverston was the Hope & Anchor, tucked away behind the Farmers Arms. It was the potential for real cider that drew me here and I wasn't disappointed.
It's a Robinson's pub serving 4 of their ales - Dizzy Blonde, Trooper, Cascade IPA & Cwrw'r ddraig aur. The aforementioned cider was Old Rosie.
I sat in the front bar, which has a little character. Service was friendly, with no problem ordering at the bar. The road at the front had been closed to allow extra tables outside.
Despite not originally planning to visit here, it was one of the better Ulverston pubs, in my opinion.
