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.

Called in here to "Refresh" during our shopping/sight seeing. Very reasonable prices and a very good choice of drinks. The pub was very busy

Visited here when me and my husband came to Kendall for a valentines break . The derby fell on the day of arrival so we went looking for a pub to watch it as the hotel didn’t have it on. As soon as we walked...in the barmaid was so welcoming and lovely. We ordered r drinks and watched the match , half way through ordered next round of drinks and the barmaid remembered r drinks and no ice In mine . So friendly and welcoming ! Cheap for drinks and enjoyed r little visit here ! If your coming to Kendal and want a friendly atmosphere pub defo try here .More

We visited here on a bleak afternoon looking for a refreshing drink. Guinness is lovely here (just make sure you ask for it first). Sports on TV and a pool table too.

Went here for my daughters hen party about 7.30pm on Saturday evening , got drinks & were just sitting chatting when one of our party asked the barman to turn the music up which he did, then the manager came down & turned it down,...when we asked why he said his partner was asleep upstairs? He was extremely rude to us shouting & swearing . We said we were leaving but a couple of the women hadn't finished their drinks so took them outside, he then came out & accused them of stealing his glasses! Customer service? I dont think so, used to go in this pub a lot in years gone by, will never go in againMore
