The Angel Inn

Just five minutes' walk from Lake Windermere, in the centre of Bowness-on-Windermere, this family owned and run gastro-pub offers plenty of city chic style. Unusual local ales vie with international beers at the bar, and good food based on local produce is available throughout the day from a choice of menus: sandwiches and light lunches; starters, nibbles and salads; cheese plates or main courses - try wild boar and apple sausage or Cumbrian Fellbred steak - desserts and a children's menu. In summer customers can enjoy the gardens and grounds; the terrace offers fantastic views.
