Certainly a good ale range but I was slightly underwhelmed, pretty bland interior dominated by a huge Six Nations rugby TV. and not the character or cosy feeling that I was expecting. Some overloud middle aged locals were making themselves centre of attention. There are certainly better pubs down the hill.

Excellent little pub up a hill from the main drag. A 2 roomed pub with the bar in the room to your left. 5 handpulls with beers from Ulverston Brewery, Tirril, Hobgoblin and a real cider/perry. Beer garden to the rear. I liked it.

First impressions of this pub were not the best. I'd emailed in advance to find out if my son would be allowed in. The answer was no. This was the only pub in the town that would not let him in.
Nevertheless, our plans changed and it was only myself that visited, along with a friend.
We met the landlord, who is also in charge of the resident brewery.
Only one of the Old Friends Brewery beers was on - Old Pals Porter. 2 guests were Cross Bay The EPA & Healey's The Welly. In addition, they had Sheppy's Blackberry and Elderflower Cider.
The Porter and the cider both went down very nicely and the pub had a nice, friendly atmosphere. The resident cat was making itself at home on a local's lap.
Great little backstreet pub that despite initial impressions turned out to be my favourite pub in the town.
