Welcome to
The Fleece Bar & Restaurant

Our rustic, Lakeland-style pub serves a hearty menu of favorites for the entire family.

Complimented by local beers and ales, our guests are invited to enjoy a range of classic, comfort dishes including our much-loved Fleece Burger (often imitated… never duplicated!).

Not hungry? Then stop in for a cozy pint in front of our open fireplaces instead!

We are proud to say that we have mouth-watering dishes that meet all dietary needs and expectations. We look forward to seeing you soon.
