Will Larter left this review about The Station Inn
Quite a change since my last visit, over a decade ago: the fish tank is no more. Just Landlord and Swan Blonde on at the time of my Sunday lunch appearance, between trains, and my half of Blonde was in pretty good nick. Definitely beats waiting 45 minutes on Oxenholme station. (The pavement is much better than it used to be, but be careful when crossing to it from the station, and take even more care on the way back. There's a sharp bend that some cars take a little faster than necessary. Use eyes and ears, engage brain and be ready to use turbo chargers )

Quinno _ left this review about The Station Inn
Situated a few minutes from the station on an unlit B road which doesn’t always have a pavement – make sure your phone has a torch if you are attempting an evening visit, like this idiot was. As mentioned below, the building has been extended and contains a dining room and a two-part bar area though it’s a relatively bright and featureless in the main. A quiz was on the go with a fairly healthy attendance, given the pub’s relative isolation. GBG listed with three cask on the go - TT Landlord, Tetleys and Bowness Bay Swan Blonde - and my glass of the latter was in good nick (NBSS 3.5). Nothing to get excited about on the whole but the beer quality means it’s worth getting off the train for. 6.5

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Station
500 metres up the hill on a narrow footway beside a busy road links the station and The Station. Anyway, the original building has been extended (perhaps more than once) to provide a dining room as well as a two-part bar. Outdoor seating is provided to one side on benches beside the car park and also in a beer garden further back where a sizeable children's play area can also be found. With two of the four handpumps in use, the local Bowness Bay Lakeland Blonde (£3.75) was oddly supplemented by Otter Bitter from the other end of the country.
