About

From its grandstand position overlooking Lake Windermere in Bowness, The Angel Inn is a must visit for excellent food and drink.

Newly opened following an exciting refurb, take in the views with a glass of frothy real local ale or settle back with a cuppa and watch the world go by.

Open all day, all year round, tuck into cracking pub fare, family favourites plus a fully loaded kids’ menu from breakfast until evening - with everything in between – you’ll find something for everyone at this friendly new inn.

Walkers are welcome as are families and dogs. You’re as welcome to flop down on a comfy chair after a day on the fells with a pint, as you are sipping a pre-dinner cocktail or getting stuck in to hearty helpings of mouth-watering dishes.

Peckish pooch? We’ve raised the bar-k when it comes to doggy diners with bar snacks and food available for hungry hounds.
