Stumbled into this warm and inviting pub on the way home from a weekend away…read more Right away we knew we'd struck gold. The staff were very welcoming and the menu varied and exciting. I settled for a Steak and Ale Suet Pudding... before it even arrived I knew I'd be in for a treat, everyone around us were eagerly tucking into there dishes. When our meals arrived we were not dissapointed, the puddings was cooked to perfection, the vegetables were obviously fresh. Pub food: but done excellently, fairly priced, warm welcoming staff and environment. A Must!

This is our favorite diner and social bar throughout the UK. My wife of 40 years, (Linda originally…read morefrom Yorkshire) and I frequented this pub mainly on Fridays and weekends while doing our postgraduate degrees at Lancaster University. In fact, my first date with Linda was at the plough, in August of 1974. We were students then, so had a tight budget, so we kept our appetite under control and enjoyed the best Fish and chips, Cumberland sausage, meat pies and mushy peas.... Linda and I got married in 1976, 3 months after our getting our PHD and Masters degrees respectively; we worked in three Continents Europe, Middle East (Asia) and America. We always had a soft spot for the Plough Inn at Galgate, it remained as one of the best places we got to know. Having lived in Michigan USA (since 1985) with our three children, my daughter Carol turned 18 in 2004 so we decided to take her on a pilgrimage to the plough Inn since the legal drinking age in America is 21. We invited a few of our friends from all over the UK for a reunion after 30 years and had a great time (picture attached). Carol, my daughter started where her parents left off. We enjoyed every minute of being there and the food was as expected, second to none in England. Life was great and our memories are only kept at this pleasant location that gave us Boddingtons and Lagers to forget about the week's science overload doing Biochemistry; Of course, there were times that we only had Shandy and Lager & Lime on Saturdays because of a typical Friday night student pub-crawls on campus . In summary, never hesitate about the Plough Inn, Food, scenery and friendly staff will impress you. We are retiring by the end of this year and we will be visiting our favorite spot for probably the last time. Congratulations to the Plough for maintaining our memories by having such a wonderful business. What else does any man want? A good wife for over 4 decades and great food all found at the Plough Inn!

We were staying in a caravan park just down the road and needed a place to eat in the evening. We…read morecame across this delightful pub within a few minutes of searching. We spent the remainder of our holidays here, every evening. Nestling by a brook full of eels. The pubs dog, Jasper, loved to just stand in the cooling water on the hot evenings that we experienced this July. Sufficient room to sit outside with plenty of tables. Service is second to none. Professional, efficient and, more to the point, friendly. Great selection of real ales, my favourite was the Cromwell. Now to the reason for frequenting this hostelry, the food. A reasonable menu taking into account the position of this pub. A good varied choice of fresh seafood, burgers, curries and steaks. We tried most of them and they all were extremely tasty. All cooked to order. Great mussels in white wine. Behind the bar is a blackboard describing their Naga 'Viper' curry made with, 'officially', the hottest chilli pepper. Underneath is written 'Curries ordered 528, curries eaten 400' LOL. I love hot curries but, even I, would not attempt it. We hope to make a return visit next year. Many thanks to the 'guvner', his wife, the staff (especially the chef and kitchen staff) for making our short holiday break a total delight. See you again.

This place is awesome! If you are looking for an authentic British pub with alot of character and…read moregood ale you gotta come here.

The drunken duck is a favorite of our friend who has come here for 40 years, starting with golf…read morebuddies, then with family and best of all to celebrate weddings, and great moments. Relax here, the staff is ready to make this luxury even better with whatever you need! Directions to many local hikes or hot coffee on the picnic tables. So much fun to have, there are gardens, strolls, patios and quiet libraries too. This is the most beautiful place I've ever stayed because I can get some rest, unwind and enjoy the great outdoors. Yesterday there was a local marathon- yes!- great runners charged past into the local town of Ambleside. Hikers and dog lovers are here too. National parks close by... what a get-away we are having!!

Such a charming pub and inn right in the middle of the Lakes District. There's a glorious view…read moreoverlooking 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.
