I have been in the Angel a couple of times and have been pleasantly surprised. It may look a little pretentious from the outside, but nicely decorated and laid out inside with a large conservatory with stone floors, comfy sofas and a large table. Despite other's comments I didn't think it was particularly expensive. Always a couple of well kept beers on, Cocker-hoop and Coniston Bluebird last time I was in. I haven't tried the food though, but will. it seems to effectively tread the line between being a pretentious "southerner's pub" and a place for locals. Worth a visit.

Overpriced. Had a lineup of three cask ales on, including Hawkshead Lakeland Gold, Bluebird Bitter and Cumberland Ale.
|
Nice interior, but not cheap
|
Nice beer and food, but a sterile interior.

Had drinks only. Two good real ales on offer, Hawkshead H-ale-o (brewed specially for the Angel) and Coniston Bluebird. Both in good condition. Wide range of wines and some decent lagers.
Has numerous rooms: restaurant, lounge and bar. You can eat anywhere but only diners are allowed in the restaurant. Nice open fire. Chilled out atmosphere and prices seemed average for the area. Would recommend and go again.

Great city style pub in the center of bowness. Doesn,t try to be a fake village pub and serves good food,albiet expensive! Choice of great real ales. Nice location. Never stayed here but accomodation looks good.

A very modern style pub, but the drinks were good and the staff friendly. Did not eat but the food going past us looked very nice. However it is not a cheap place to go.
|
Pub located on a pretty steep hill with ample beer gardens on slope up to pub. Only 2 Robinsons Ales on tap but plenty of tasteless lagers and Smoothflows. You need to have the footing of a mountain goat to carry a tray of drinks to your table!
|
Only pint of half-decent cider I've found around Lakes (Westons Draft Scrumpy). Some good local breweries represented, such as Bluebird. Excellent food. Campaign for Real Lemonade tells me that that ares OK as well ;-)
Well worth a visit.
