More than 8 years later and things have changed..... three of the four handpulls were off this time! Incredibly, the only cask on was a Mild (not Robinsons, where this is a tied house), which seems like a really odd choice, if by design.
Coffee machine also on the blink, so what was probably north of £3 was a cup of instant Nescafe.
Regardless, we like the other punters, were here for the Sunday lunch and this was more than acceptable. Quick service and good quantities.
Shame about the beer situation!

Great location, straight off the fells.
Two of the three real ales were off. We must have timed it unluckily.
Friendly staff and Hartleys ale was well kept.
