Been here several times over the last year and the food has always been consistently very good. Tasty & generous Sunday roasts too. Good sized beer garden out the back. Friendly staff, well kept beer and great service all round. Well done!

Lovely little pub in a beautiful location. Food took a long time to come out, and miraculously appeared as soon as we enquired but these things happen. Would definitely go back! The history information inside was also fascinating.

Warm and friendly atmosphere. When we went there was live music on from a talented American keyboard player (never seen that before in any of the countryside pubs in the lakes). Good selection of beer and food. Be aware, their Sunday menu is different from the one listed on their website that lists pizza (could be a weekday thing?). I'd recommend this place

Fantastic friendly pub. Even the locals are all welcoming. And the food is exceptional, can’t ask for much more than that really. Keep up the good work and keep serving the great beer 👌👌👌

Haven't been for a while but the lack of evening food options in Hawkshead now meant we ended up here, and very glad we did. Food was absolutely spot on, with a great selection of burgers and pizzas. Family and dog friendly, it's definitely a place we'll come back to sooner rather than later.

Really warm, friendly, welcoming pub — very classic cosy traditional pub vibe round the main bar area, with an adjacent dining area and beer garden. I went twice — once for lunch and once for dinner — and both meals were top notch. The menu had a really great selection of options — our party of 6 tried all sorts of things across it and everything from the sandwiches to the sea bass risotto to the pizza to the pork ribs was excellent. The staff are also all lovely and friendly which makes such a difference. I will definitely be going back to Outgate Inn!

Just returned from a weekend stay in Outgate. Visited this place twice for evening meal. Thoroughly enjoyed both occasions . Service with a smile, relaxed atmosphere, great food. If you are staying in Hawkeshead, I'd recommend the short trip up the road.

Had dinner last night. 😎 The Sloppy Joe Burger was the best I have ever had. The photos on the site do not do it justice. Chef, that was fantastic. Hats off. Little bread, but beautiful. Burger to die for. Excellent Stuff. The pub wasn’t bad either!!!🙄Many thanks

Food was really lovely from the main to the desserts. All our party enjoyed what was served. Decor was beautiful. Servers were brilliant and friendly. After the trouble we had last night to get food from the red lion. We were not disappointed. Would definitely recommend. And a massive Thumbs up for me!!

We popped in for some food last night and it was excellent, there was a shortened menu but plenty to choose from. The buttermilk chicken was delicious and so was the sticky toffee pudding. The locals were very friendly and welcoming.

Nice little family and dog friendly pub which sells light lunches. I had a roast pork with crackling and stuffing sandwich which was fully loaded and came with a side of fries and gravy.
We found the staff to be friendly and polite and the beer was spot on.

Went for a meal yesterday was (our 2nd visit.) Food was lovely, cosy surroundings and the locals very welcoming. A local chap called Paul was so friendly. Would definitely recommend. Beef roast was scrumptious and pheasant burger my husband said was lovely. Worth a visit we will 100% be back. Keep up the good work everyone :)

Fantastic food and fantastic staff.
We had Outgate Inn recommended to us and it did not disappoint. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. One to keep an eye on, the chef likes to use a pesto dressing which has nuts in. But the staff and the chef was very flexible and we had a lovely meal.
The sticky toffee pudding was particularly good.
Would definitely go again.
