    Our recent visit to this establishment was marred by poor conduct, a lack of professionalism, and…read morean inappropriate level of personal judgment from staff -- resulting in what should have been a simple family meal turning into an unnecessarily uncomfortable experience. Upon arrival, we ordered a round of drinks, including one, legally permitted alcoholic drink for my 16-year-old daughter, in accordance with Section 149(5) of the Licensing Act 2003, which allows for 16- and 17-year-olds to consume beer, wine, or cider with a table meal when accompanied by an adult. We were told that food would need to be ordered for her drink to be served (after we had been sat with our drinks for at least 10 minutes)-- a reasonable condition, and we immediately complied by placing a food order for the party, a £20 sharing platter with extra fries (fries were £6!) Our meal was served, and we proceeded to enjoy our meal without issue. After finishing our food, I attempted to order a second round of alcoholic drinks for 2 adults in our group, along with an ice lolly for a younger child. At that point, we were abruptly informed that no further alcohol would be served to anyone in our group, despite the fact that no additional drink had been requested for my daughter. We were informed the manager was not there but they rang the member of staff and told them not to serve us anything else further. I would like to note at this stage, we were sat chatting about our week and our youngest daughter/granddaughters sports day (hardly criminal behaviour). What followed was not only inappropriate but highly unprofessional. A member of staff made a personal and unsolicited comment, accusing me of "encouraging a 16-year-old to drink" -- a deeply offensive and legally inaccurate accusation. We were not in breach of any law, we were not intoxicated, and we were not acting irresponsibly. We had followed every instruction given to us in good faith. It's important to be clear: * We were served an initial round of drinks, with the understanding that food must be ordered for the 16-year-old -- and we complied. * We did not attempt to purchase any further alcohol for her. * The only request made after the meal was for adult (only 2 alcoholic drinks between 3 adults) drinks and a child's dessert item. * The staff chose to refuse further alcohol service based on a personal and moral judgment, not law or customer behaviour. If an establishment enforces internal policies stricter than legal requirements, it is within their right to do so -- but such policies must be communicated clearly (and prior to any purchase of alcohol for anyone within the party) and applied consistently, without condescension or personal insult. The staff's behaviour in this case reflected neither good judgment nor good training. And while I would normally refrain from such personal observations, I must note: I will not be taking parenting advice from someone whose own personal hygiene -- particularly in regard to his dental hygiene -- raises serious questions about self-care, let alone professional standards. (If this establishment can pass personal judgment then I am entitled to reciprocate their tone). We left feeling insulted, patronised, and unwelcome -- all despite having followed the rules and behaved respectfully throughout. I would not return, and I would urge others to think twice before spending money in a venue where lawful, respectful customers are treated with such disdain.

Even though we hadn't booked, the staff were extremely helpful and friendly and seated us with no fuss at all. The service from the staff was second to none, they are fab! Helpful, friendly and nothing is too much trouble (even our dog was given treats!) The food was amazing, especially the Monterey Jack Burgers! And the desserts were lip smackingly delicious. Our only regret is that we're not local!!! We live in Northumberland so were just visiting family, but we will certainly be going back next time we visit. Absolutely fantastic place!

    So there we were driving around on Sunday looking for somewhere to have "Fathers day" lunch…read more Looking for the usual 2 for 1 or all you can eat for a fiver deals (I'm a bloke from Yorkshire, therefore I'm tight) but to no avail....... then I just remembered this place from my youth and headed over and BINGO! Big chalk board outside said Fathers day lunch £7.50, I conned the wife into going halves (she was fed up of driving round by then) so we went in. We were greeted by friendly bar staff and a more restaurant approach but in a rural pub setting which was a bit odd but good, grabbed a couple of pints of rancid old scrotum or some other cask ale and parked at the table which the waitress helpfully showed us to. The menu had a choice of 4 meals, 5 starters and plenty of puddings (desserts if you're from that London) which were all specials for the day. I chose a steak and ale pie with new spuds etc and the wife a beef dinner with all the trimmings....... service took around 10 minutes so I bought more "Armpit sweat" or "Old bags eyeball juice" or some other beer of some strange name. Believe me when I say it was worth the driving around and having to drink beer with twigs in (I don't have a beard or corduroys or a tank top so I prefer my beer twig free) as I can honestly say it was a genuinely home made pie, in a dish with just a crust on top and filled with half a cow and some fungus pieces (mushrooms of the non magic variety) all swimming in gravy that I believe was made from the tears of an angel. The vegetables were a plenty and in bowls to share between us which gets me on to the wifes choice of roast beef dinner, she said it was the best beef she's ever had and believe me when I say she's had a lot of meat in her lifetime ;) It was melt in the mouth and enough to leave her with a smile on her face and the yorkshire pudding (no that's not the wifes nickname) was fresh made and delicious. So next time you're in the Drig area or even not but want a bally good nosh (sorry I just put my Tim Nice But Dim head on) put BD11 1LJ into your Satnav, you will not be dissapointed.

WOW, were we lucky? This is a nice pub with nice staff but doesn't look anything special. However, the food was just wonderful! Fresh veg, proper home made yorkshire pud and real puddings too. You would expect to pay more for this. We will be back in 2011 for another day of dance and will be heading back to The Spotted Cow!! Peter Crosby near Liverpool

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.

    The Drunken Duck Inn & Restaurant - Modern and sleek bathroom, well-appointed, fantastic shower. Each room is different, our friend has a large luxurious soaking tub!

    The Drunken Duck Inn & Restaurant - They make their own- several selections. The dark stout is tasty and full of flavor- (like Guinness even better)

    I couldn't get enough of this place. The epitome of an (extremely) old pub at the heart of a…read morecommunity where everyone seemed to know everyone else. And the beers are darn good too. This whitewashed inn accessed over an old packhorse bridge claims to 'probably' be Yorkshire's oldest (1307). Got to love them covering themselves for inaccuracy there. That's over seven centuries of beery goodness which was open for trade 40 years before the Black Death! A gem of a building with wooden beams throughout - the layout inside is stepped as it's built on a decline so disabled access is obviously limited (you may wish to phone in advance if you or your family member has any mobility concerns). There's plenty of seating throughout, however, with some set back in nooks in the walls. As well as serving real ale from independent brewers, they stock genuine imported lagers from around the world. Their fridge of bottled beers looked quite comprehensive. They also have guest beers which change regularly - when I visited they had Jaipur from Thornbridge on (one of my all time favourites). They serve food but we didn't eat here on this occasion. I can guarantee I will be a punter here again when I'm over next time.
