AMAZING restaurant and pub! We went over a year ago and
AMAZING restaurant and pub! We went over a year ago and still talk about the delicious food we had there, and the atmosphere of the pub is perfect. So cozy and comfortable. Cannot go wrong!!
Be the first to ReplyI booked in with friends for one night last week.
The friends go there a couple of times a year for special family celebrations. It is slightly off the main beaten track and was just wonderful! On arrival was served tea and cake beside the lake. The evening meal and breakfast was superb. The staff were both friendly and attentive. They seem to have managed to combine intimate cosy atmosphere with great style. Definitely on my list to revisit.

Such a charming pub and inn right in the middle of the Lakes District. There's a glorious view overlooking the mountains right in front of the venue (with picnic tables if you'd like to sit and enjoy it with a pint). Brunch, lunch, dinner, and bar snacks are served at the Drunken Duck, and I'd only really recommend booking for dinner. The beer and cider are mostly local I believe. We did the curry bowl to share (vegetarian and VERY tasty - kind of wish I could get the recipe), scampi, fries, and tartare sauce (those fries are to die for!) and the lamb kofta, hummus, flatbread, and mint yoghurt (great for sharing and noshing). There's plenty of parking on the side of the inn. The inside is decorated beautifully (very insta-worthy), so maybe consider renting out for an event. And yes, you can bring your dog to dinner/drinks.

Such a quaint little upper end pub on the mountain with a great view. I wish it wasn't raining so that we could sit outside but the interior was also very sweet. I had the mackerel starter which was good but the fish was not hot- everything else on the dish was just cooked hot. I presume the fish was cooked in advance- a shame since it tasted good but would've been better if it was cooked to order. For the main I had the ox cheek which was also delicious. It's definitely a lovely place to dine and I was pretty impressed. The service was also great. We brought our dog who had a nice little nap after a long day of walking
Be the first to ReplyOur 5th stay at the duck - came here first in 2010.
The rooms are lovely, the food very tasty and they cater well for vegans and vegetarians. We use this as a base to do some fantastic Lake District walks - and then come back to a lovely friendly atmosphere. Our only criticism of the recent change in menu since we were here last is the lack of cheese board for dessert. My husband used to enjoy that most nights at the end of the meal and misses that greatly. Thank you to the duck. We will be back next year !

We called in at the Drunken Duck whilst camping up in the Lake District recently, as the pub was a short walk from our campsite - or so I thought, as I didn't factor in the hill! Upside, though, is that it's downhill on the way home!We didn't eat at the Drunken Duck, though I'm given to understand that the food is good. There's no specified menu, since they use fresh ingredients every day so the available dishes will change based on what they have to hand.What we did go for, though, was the beer! Well, after a cola to cool down after walking up that hill. We decided against sitting inside, as it was uncomfortably warm in there, rather taking up residence outside on one of the available tables. As well as a few smaller tables which only seat 2, they have a patch of land opposite with some larger benches looking out over the fields down the hill.There's a good selection of proper ale available, mostly from Barngates Brewery. I can't work out whether that's a brewery based at, or otherwise affiliated with, the Drunken Duck but either way they do a good stout.Only a short visit for a few pints before heading back down the hill, but the bar staff were very friendly and the prices surprisingly reasonable for a pub which includes the word "gastro" in the description.Would certainly call again for more beer and food if I was in the area, and I'd encourage anyone to pay them a visit!
Be the first to ReplyVisited for lunch in October, 2015.
Another charming pub to visit in the Lake District. My partner I visited on a slightly chilly day, so, we decided to pick a table inside closest to the bar. We enjoyed the compact coziness of the room, where a wood fire kept us company, along with a few others all enjoying the end of a weekend. (If one could rate a pub based on how comfortable it is to sit and read through The Sunday Times, this place would rank highly!) The menu featured traditional British dishes, with local ingredients like lamb, cabbage, potatoes, etc. Wine list had some French gems to order, and of course many local brews were on tap. The service was very friendly, timely, yet, professionally done at the same time. The covered porch seating area, as well as the picnic tables across the road, were all lovely little areas to admire the sweeping hilly views.

Beautiful little spot just off the main tourist trap of Ambleside Lake with gorgeous views over the surrounding fields. When we first visited the Drunken Duck they had more of an open-plan situation with the seating arrangements with big tables and chairs making it feel more roomy. Now days they have booth seating, which I'm really not a fan of, it makes the whole place feel really cramped and you can't have random chats with other customers in the pub like you use to if you're eating by the bar. The food quality is fairly good, great chunky chips and traditional meals are on offer but the standards seemed to have slipped in recent months meaning the food comes out a bit warm but not hot and generally a little bland. Worth trying, but I wouldn't go out of your way.
Be the first to ReplyLove love love it! You can't book so we just turned up
Love love love it! You can't book so we just turned up expecting a long wait but got a table straightaway. Always a good start. We went for a pork sandwich, roast beef sandwich & sausage and chips for the kids. It was all delicious. The chips were perfectly crisp on the outside and soft in the middle. The sandwiches were both really tasty (as per usual I preferred the pork but they really were both exceptional). And we finished off with a shared chocolate brownie (two brownies in as many days...it might be a favourite). Really nice place for the kids (they even had a proper change table!). It's set in the beautiful Lake District so the drive up is gorgeous too and just adds to the whole experience.I think next time I'll try staying here as well (if the rooms are anything like the restaurant it'll be worth it).

Great pub - sits outside of major attraction area, up on a hill. Very good selection of beer, wines and good. I had be eyre with mushroom and it was excellent! It is a great quality dish even by London standard and I think it must be one of the best in the area. The place was recommended by the local chef from lake road kitchen which I believe is another great option in the area - sadly, I did not have a chance to eat there. Must try place, especially for lunch if you are in the area.

This bar and restaurant has a fantastic view and the tables outside are the ones to get. We found the food to be of high quality, much better than what you might expect for a country pub and the staff friendly.Another review website (they do exist) has a bad review which has skewed its score. I'd safely ignore that and have confidence you'll have a nice meal.Worth the trip out.
Be the first to ReplyAbsolutely hands down the best food I had in all of Great
Absolutely hands down the best food I had in all of Great Britain. That might not sound like it means anything, but the chef at this place can give any US restaurant a run for their money. Besides having such an awesome name "Drunken Duck Inn" the duck is surrounded by one of the most hill type gorgeous landscapes England has to offer. You can grab a beer and walk 10 feet outside and view the English Country side. There are many trails, lakes, and adventures you can embark upon. The rooms are very unique, a throw back to what English rooms might have looked like 50 years ago, minus the flat screen TV. Overall Drunken Duck Inn was a highlight of my adventures in England. I would highly recommend it to everyone. Make sure to ask the staff about the legend of the drunken duck.
