Tuck into The Coniston Inn’s Sunday Roast, with generous helpings of carved meats or vegetarian alternatives, homemade Yorkshires and crispy roast potatoes, alongside freshly prepared seasonal vegetables.
If it’s just a drink you’re after, The Coniston Inn takes pride in looking after beer the old-fashioned way, which ensure the perfect pint every time. Sample local real ales, including guest hand pulls on rotation, as well as continental lagers and scrumptious ciders. With a gin selection so varied you won’t know what to choose, why not ask a bartender for their personal favourite? Fancy something warm? The wide range of Ringtons speciality hot drinks is sure to hit the spot.
Muddy boots, children and dogs are always welcome!
