Royal Oak Pub

Really nice place. We were well looked after here

I called in for a quick bite to eat on a lush sunny day and ended up staying for a while as it was so pretty and peaceful. The staff were all really friendly, I grabbed a drink at the bar and was given a menu to take out into the garden. They were serving Sunday lunch but also had a lighter menu on offer which I decided to order from. I went with the chicken wrap and fries which was so tasty, the wrap was jam packed and full of flavour, with some sort of garlic/chilli sauce that was unreal! The pub itself is beautiful, with low ceilings, dark wood and so many original features. The bar is well stocked with a good variety of choices and lots of specials from local breweries. The beer garden for me is the star of the show I could have sat here all day. I can’t wait to come back again.

Clean, efficient and great location

Parking in the public carpark and the short walk to the hotel on a stormy night is something to consider.

It was good and convenient but there was no TV in the room and the included breakfast was limited, extra for latte, couldn’t have OJ and tea and cooked was half the size as the one if you purchased it. Also didn’t open for breakfast till 9.

Being Christmas week we were in the area visiting friends so we just called in for a drink, not very festive but apart from it being Christmas, this was Saturday night in Cartmel I don't think there was a dozen people in there, the entertainment such as it was, was a guy on a guitar and between his enthusiasm and the stuff he was playing was sending folk to sleep. Talk about "Hotel California" Owned by a local micro brewery, so you have no idea what you are ordering and it's not cheap either. Will we be going back, I'll let you decide......!
