A brewed recipe for success
Enjoy a G&T or shake things up with one of our signature cocktails. As well as local real ales, guest hand pulls on rotation, perfectly chilled continental lagers and scrumptious ciders, we’ve got a wide range of quirky, characterful bottled craft beers too - you’ll be truly spoilt for choice.
Our well-stocked cellar will bring you wines from around the globe. Sold by the glass or bottle, there are wines to pair with all dishes and to suit every taste.
Enjoy planning your next Lakeland adventure over a pot of tea or aromatic barista coffee. Or why not try something different with our Ringtons speciality loose leaf teas?
