What RazzyBthefirst likes about Traveller's Rest:
The weather was favourable and we were able to grab the last bench seat at the front of the pub in the sunshine.

What Jayden Harris doesn't like about Traveller's Rest:
Brilliant setting, but after everywhere else in town being too busy to accomodate us at 5:30pm, we ended up at the Travellers Rest. Even though ot wasent very busy at all, there was a 2 hours wait for food! Yes, 2 HOURS. I have never been told to wait for two hours before at a resteraunt/pub. Very dissapointing.

The Travellers Rest is a traditional pub located in Glenridding, perfect for visitors coming down from the fells or exploring the area around Ullswater. With a reasonable menu selection, quick service, and friendly staff, it is a popular spot for locals and tourists alike. The cozy setting with wood burners, both inside and out, adds to the charm of the place, making it a must-visit in the area. Despite some mixed reviews regarding wait times and prices, the overall atmosphere and quality of the food make it a great choice for a post-adventure meal or drink.

Pub lunch after a walk. Pie, chips and peas washed down with couple of pints of Guinness. Unpretentious pub grub done pretty well.
