The Shipinn@thursby - Carlisle

Excellent service brilliant eating decent price will defo back

On a visit over to the west coast from Carlisle we noticed this nice cosy pub and decided to call in on way back and we weren’t disappointed all staff very friendly and place is clean and warm the fish chips are very good value and come hot and are very tasty there is a good choice on menu plus beers and wines to suit everyone they are closed in afternoons but opens again at 17:30 we didn’t book but if your in a big party I suggest you book in advance as not to be disappointed, we will certainly be back

We stayed in one of their on-site static caravans for a motorcycle tour of the borders with a couple of friends. We arrived just before the last food orders and enjoyed a nice meal at the restaurant. On the second night, we cooked in the caravan. It was a lovely place with friendly people.

Really enjoyed our Sunday lunch, lovely food, portions very generous, great pint, very friendly staff and landlady. Could have done with an extra server to speed up service but it’s hard to know how busy you will be in advance, and it was very busy which was lovely to see for a country pub. 5 adults and two kids fed and (generously) watered for £80. Can’t go wrong Will definitely be back.

Fabulous 2 x 10z rib eye steaks with home cooked chips peas onion rings and tomatoes for just £20.00 the steak was cooked to perfection and melt in the mouth. Our daughter had Whitby scampi chips and peas for just over £10 and again said it was lovely. She followed hers up with raspberry Pavlova we were too full for deserts) which looked beautiful. As always lovely polite friendly staff. Will definately be back for pie night and fish night.
