Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    Great beer, great staff and great atmosphere. Proper English pub with proper bar snacks. Perfect place to stop off after a walk.

    We stopped here after a Riverside walk & arrived just before 12 & sat outside. We were lucky as this place gets busy. Lovely old pub, friendly staff & the best ploughmans I've had! 4 different local cheeses & ham! I was stuffed & struggled to finish it. My partner had a bacon, brie & cranberry roll & said this was delicious. A great find & you can see why it's so popular.

    Awesome food, great service and good beer. We were entertained by James - one man and his guitar - who had a fantastic (audience driven) repertoire. Fantastic Friday night out - nowhere better in Ambleside

    The Cellar bar is a great little bar with a friendly barmaid we stopped in for a first quencher before lunch.
    We also returned after lunch for a few Gins. And then again later on in the day for a few more Gins before getting a taxi back to grasmere

    Great location in town. Good selection of food and drink. The greatest asset is the people who work there. Incredibly warm, friendly and helpful.
    Thanks to Gaynor for sorting out our accomodation and town parking.
