"A cosy little hotel with a warm welcome, clean comfortable rooms, good food and drink. Our double was a little small but had a good bed, tv, Wi-Fi, bathroom and shower. The restaurant food was lovely and tasty. We had fish and chips which was a fabulous sized cod and a dirty chicken burger which was very tasty. Red wine Rioja was excellent too rounded off with some Peroni. Breakfast was good but no croissants which was surprising. We played some pool and also The car park surprisingly also had a few EV chargers too. Constructive improvement comments: 1. The breakfast options could include some pastries, I really wanted a croissant. Also offer different egg ways. -boiled, poached etc 2. Breakfast times are a bit early closing 3. Clear the untidy view of the upturned chairs and from the restaurant annexe window"

"This lovely pub/hotel had several vegan options all of which sounded amazing! I went here with my husband (also vegan) for starters I got the cauliflower bites which came with a delightful mint mayo dip my husband ordered onion bhajis which came with a tangy mango chutney and was also lovely! For our main, we both initially ordered banana blossom fish and chips but they only had enough for one portion so my husband ordered the vegan lasagna. Both mains were brilliant! They allow dogs inside and were so accommodating for our female dog who can be wary of strangers (training ongoing). Staff were so lovely,the atmosphere was nice and the beer even better! Will definitely make a return trip here. Updated from previous review on 2023-06-10"

"Edit: Thursday 9th November 2023: Still excellent. AND their toilet paper is QUALITY! Edit: Tuesday 8pm (20:00) Guinness and bacon butty, ideal. Lovely staff and great service, level access and outdoor seating may well suit wheelchair users. Dog friendly, and with fitting and interesting decor (pointing towards some of the history of Whitehaven it's harbour with it's links to Ireland), Excellent views across the harbour, level access, nice food, selection of beers (Guinness, Stella, others), better hot chocolate than Greggs or McDonalds, also their lemonade on tap and cordial are both ok for those like me who cannot stand the taste of Aspartame, a snacks menu for people and a snacks menu for dogs (waterbowl for dogs outside near the entrance). Has tables and seating inside and out front on the harbour most of the day early evening. A lovely place to watch the sunset. And they have a pub quiz 3rd Wednesday of the month. And they sell bacon butties. And their own-branded Spirit (available in bottles) is quite a tasty warmer-upper... And they stock XL Cheese crisps, locally very popular and with good reason. Photos are from five different visits."

"We visited as part of the Brit Stops program. The parking lot across the street isn't entirely flat, but we managed to find a decent spot and had a pleasant night. The food at the hotel was excellent—I particularly enjoyed my steak pie with fresh vegetables. Although the drinks were pricey, which increased our bill, I understand that prices have to cover costs these days. The hotel itself looked fantastic, and the location is ideal. The Wi-Fi was also good. Overall, the highlights of the hotel include its quiet atmosphere."
