Ruskins!!
Ruskins Bar is located right in the town centre of Kendal, above Smokehouse Yard. We have recently had a refurbishment and we can’t wait for you all to enjoy it just as much as we do.
We have a fantastic selection of Ales, Whiskey, Gin and more for you to enjoy, whether you’re joining friends and family for a quiet drink, or coming to dance along to variety of live music events. And with the stunning Lake District right on our doorstep, we strive to use local suppliers, such as Fell Brewery, Cumbria Legendary Ales and The Lakes Distillery, to bring a taste of the Lakes straight to you.
If you would like any more information, or would like to hire one of our beautiful rooms for a private function, message us on Facebook for more details, or call us on 01539721698 (after 6pm).
