Tweedies - Pub in Cumbria
Grasmere, The Lake District, LA22 9SW, Cumbria
England,
United Kingdom
Grasmere is a honeypot village that attracts visitors as well as walkers and lovers of the lakes. Tweedies, named after a travelling salesman, is in the heart of the village with a sprawling garden that soaks up the splendid views. The bar is stone-flagged and solidly seated, with a focus on food and drink rather than fancy furnishings. Alex is passionate about his cellar and serves one of the best selections of drinks anywhere in the area; the walls display the labels from hundreds of beers offered over the years. Grab a pint of Hawkshead and head outside into the super grounds. Chef James, who cut his teeth in top London restaurants, favours local flavour and substance. Try a popular stack: goats cheese with poached egg, guacamole and red onion marmalade. Fell walkers can opt for slow-cooked Bolito Misto with crusty homemade sourdough.
