The Screes Inn
3.5 / 5 (325 reviews)

Description

Nestled in the picturesque Eskdale, The Strands Inn and its sister establishment, The Screes Inn, offer warm hospitality and a welcoming atmosphere that draws both locals and visitors. Diners rave about the extensive menu, highlighting the outstanding vegetarian options and hearty dishes, like the celebrated vegetarian roast. While the food impresses, some aspects, including inconsistent opening hours and a need for improved accommodation cleanliness, need attention. However, the diligent staff and thoughtful service, paired with a fine selection of local ales, ensure a memorable experience—making it a worthwhile stop for anyone exploring the Lake District.

First visit. Very welcoming staff. Bar and dining area had a good mix of locals and weekend visitors. Extensive menu. Food was very good and service good too. Only downside for me was although food orders were taken at the table, drinks had to be ordered at the bar which felt a bit disjointed. Would happily visit again

Good food and great little pub, accommodation needs updating and more cleaning, standard approach to breakfast, need options especially with fruit juice as we had a diabetic and someone else who didn’t like orange juice there was no alternative

The food is much more interesting than what is served at many pubs and the atmosphere is really friendly. We went at a busy time but were in now rush so we relaxed and enjoyed the whole evening.

The Scree inn does not stick to its opening times. Out of the four days we were there it was open once. The Strands Inn, which is owned by the same people, was too busy the woman sent us away. She was really rude!

I stayed at this pub for two nights with a friend while hiking up Scafell Pike. The pub had a cozy atmosphere, delicious beer, a wide variety of whisky options, and the food was outstanding. Unfortunately, I was too tired from hiking to fully enjoy the whisky selection, but I hope to come back with my wife in the future. I would definitely stay here again.
