Mortal Man
Bridge Lane Troutbeck LA23 1PL
Plan a hike up in rugged Troutbeck and you’ll have earned a welcome pint at the Mortal Man, a traditional inn with a soaring backdrop, which is gaining a good reputation under new owners. It’s a fine old-school pub with roaring fires in winter, filling bar meals and changing ales – eat out in the garden in summer, or inside the venerable bar or separate dining room (and book ahead if you’re coming to eat at the weekend). If you’re staying (there are rooms) you’ll have the chance to try out the pub’s own walking guides, which take you on energetic local routes right from the front door.
