I know it's January, traditionally quiet for pubs but when the landlord can barely get up from watching the TV to serve behind the bar, it doesn't create a nice atmosphere, especially when he's coughing badly and doesn't put his hand in front of his mouth.
Food mediocre, would not recommend, there are 2 other pubs in the village, I can't see this one lasting much longer.
We just had the most delicious and wonderful lunch at The Crown Inn at Shap! They opened at noon and because we took a day away from walking the Coast to Coast (lots of rain!) we had time to relax over lunch. We visited with the proprietors while the coal fire was built in the fireplace and ordered homemade tomato soup (for me) and a ham and cheese omelette for my husband, and coffee for us both. Two hours passed (a total surprise!). It was about to storm again, so we closed our bill and walked to our B&B. What a great afternoon. Wonderful people, great homemade food (all of it!! Even the sausage!). They told us about how they invite campers walking the C2C to camp on their property, also. So nice!! Great wholesome, fresh food. Very friendly and full of authentic hospitality!
Camped here overnight on the Coast to Coast. Good little, flat camping area with dedicated shower and loo (could do with a lick of paint, but did the job). The pub itself is very old - in a good way. I found the landlord and landlady very welcoming and helpful, and there was a nice crowd at the bar. Excellent cooked breakfast, too. Thank you.
A perfect local pub. Good selection of drinks and pub food, very friendly and helpful owners. A place that's not pretending to be anything else! Thanks for letting me park up for the night too ????????
Had lunch here yesterday after a great morning hiking. Lovely warm pub with very friendly service and tasty food. Absolutely perfect for what we needed and would very much recommend.
I booked one of the camping pods. It was not clean food crumbs and feathers covering the floor also you cannot close the door from the outside. The area outside the pod had lots of cigarette ends littering the floor. The combined shower toilet room had lots of paint coming off the wall the bin was overflowing. The drain for the shower was a crack in tiled floor. There was a small amount of well watered down hand soap the hand washing sink was not very clean. Along the coast to coast path I met three people who asked me where I was going to stay that night they were hoping to camp at the bunk house but it had a private function. One of them ordered a pint on arrival and asked the landlord if he could have a pint of water first. The landlord charged him £9.50 the same price as 2 pints. He then went on to complain when we asked if we could charge our phones. When the other two walkers turned up he charged them £7.50 per person after quoting me £7.00 . The place was very empty only a half dozen or on a Saturday night. I know this pub has a lot of good reviews.
But for me it felt hostile unfriendly and poorly run.
Lovely pub, highly recommend. Great social distancing. Dog friendly and delicious home cooked food with very generous portions. We had lasagne and beef stew in a Yorkshire pudding, amazing ????
Great time had here. Good food, good beer, wrong glass good company. Parking for the motorhome. What more do you need?
