Pooley Bridge, British, Traditional - Restaurant Guide

In the heart of the Lowther estate, known for its famous Askham Hall down the road, this comfortable Cumbrian pub (which had to be extensively refurbished after a fire a couple of years ago) is one of the better-rated by our annual diners’ poll in the Lakes (and was the Cumbrian Tourism Awards 2024 Pub of the Year). Much of the meat for the straightforward, traditional menu comes from the family estate and other local sources.
