The Ratty Arms, Ravenglass

This pub is housed in the former station buildings on Ravenglass station - which is now a stop-ff on the Ravenglass - Eskdale Railway. The buildings (former waiting rooms) are in stone, with a wood extension and have a touch of the Victorian Gothic. There is a patio area. The interior has an open-plan room, which is part partitioned and in white. There is a white and beam ceiling and a blue patterned carpet. There is quite a long wood serving bar that compliments the bench seating. There is a nice iron fireplace. There is a dart board and i didn't see a TV and there was no music. It will not come as a shock that the walls have railway and train pictures on them. The service was very good and the clientele seemed a good mix of drinkers and diners, and all ages. They do food, which was decent. Beer; usual tap stuff with Jennings Cocker Hoop and Cumberland Ale, and Ennerdale Copper and Darkest on handpull, both of the last two being decent. It is a GBG pub and i felt both comfortable here and happy with the food/beer. I would definitely go back.
