Owned by Robinson Brewery, this whitewashed inn (single/double £60/90) is a popular lunch stop for passengers on La'al Ratty – the station at Dalegarth isn't far. Inside it's a marriage of heritage and modern and there are decent beers and solid pub grub – nothing fancy, but welcome after a day on the fells. It participates in June's Boot Beer Festival.
