The Pack Horse is a traditional pub in Keswick, hidden away in Pack Horse Court off the main high street in Keswick. With old wooden beams and a real fireplace, the pub glows with warmth in winter time. It is a friendly community pub that stocks a fantastic range of draught beers, lagers, ciders & fine wines.

Keswick is the North Lakes’ most popular holiday and day trip destination. Nestling between the Skiddaw Mountains and Derwentwater Lake, the town is situated in an idyllic location in the Lake District National Park. The town contains a variety of indoor and outdoor attractions far wider than you might expect. There are three very individual museums, a highly successful theatre, and cinema, art and craft exhibitions and for those who like to be active, a leisure pool, multi-purpose all weather sports area, climbing opportunities, and other sports facilities. The North Lakes area offers many walking and cycling routes, with a large number of routes direct from the town of Keswick itself. At the Pack Horse Inn, dining areas are located on three terraces leading up the stairs, offering a different dining experience. You will find here some of the best pub food to be found in the area! Our restaurant in Keswick offers a traditional dining experience with a modern twist in relaxed and elegant surroundings. All dishes are beautifully presented and prepared with care, to reflect the best of seasonal Cumbrian produce following changing seasons and growing patterns. As with all good traditional pubs there are plenty of activities for you to join in. The Pack Horse Inn is associated with some of the best live music you will find in Keswick.
