The bar had incredible wooden vibes and the music was perfect. I didn't eat but the guy next to me was eating some buffalo wings that looked like solid bar wings.

The Long Hall has a lot going on that does not readily meet the eye from its narrow shotgun profile appearance from the sidewalk and street. I walk in and the place was packed. I ordered a pint of well poured Guinness and thought someone would soon be leaving. Wrong, it was trivia night, things were just starting and people were filling every remaining saved seat and stool in The Long Hall. There is an app they use here at The Long Hall that allows people to enter their responses to the questions announced over the sound system of the pub. People are into this here and no one is leaving. Come on a Tuesday, get here early. Standing at the bar, I realized I had better order food to go: their burger (medium rare) with bacon and cheese and their fish and chips. They don't serve their burgers with onions, but they have the lettuce, tomato and sliced pickles. The burger was medium well, leaning medium, not medium rare, but came with plenty of bacon. Somehow at medium well, the quality of the burger meat remained detectable, just a bit overcooked for my tastes. The burger was good and the fries were very good. The Fish and Chips were a bit disappointing in that the cod fillets were of uniform shape and size, giving fish stick vibes. These were clearly more substantial than fish sticks and had the unmistakable flaky white cod inside a somewhat crispy exterior, but they were nothing spectacular. The tartar sauce was a good accompaniment and the fries were excellent. The burger and fish and chips were not on the level of other items on the menu, but the fries are consistently very good here. I saw people ordering the fries alone and cleaning out the basket in which they are served in short order. I might add the patrons here are as nice and respectful as the folks working at The Long Hall. 3.6 stars

It's not even the wait staffs fault. It's idiotic management. They have the waiters and waitresses working with no rhyme or reason. Instead of having assigned wait staff, one outdoors, one in the bar and one in the dining room, they have them all overlapping covering multiple tables and providing poor service for everyone. It took an hour and a half to have lunch today because the poor waitress had to work outside and inside. It hurts their tips and it's not even their fault cause they're doing their best. Management wake up and get things in order.

    I have to agree with ALL these reviews-this place is absolutely fantastic and they should not…read morechange a thing! First off-the owners are so FRIENDLY and kind--you can talk to them about anything and they are happy to answer questions about any of the food and/or drinks. You can tell they love owning this place and meeting customers. I have heard so much about the Pub and went for the first time yesterday with two friends. We had one of their rotating cask beers and one of their bitter regular casks which is a staple of the establishment-each beer was delicious and tasty! I had the vegan curry dish which was very tasty with veggies, rice and great spice. My friends had a dish similar to Shepherd's Pie but slightly different and cooked with more like steak stewed meat rather than lamb and we all licked our plates clean LOL. We also shared two of the desserts which were vanilla ice cream with some type of coconut cookie in it and the other was vanilla ice cream with a yummy type of strawberry sauce I think. The atmosphere is so laid back as well-like traditional British Pubs you order your drinks and food at the bar and they deliver your food to your table with a number. You are able to sit wherever you would like and I hear it gets very packed for European football games. I can't wait until I get a chance to go again-there aren't a ton of food options being that I don't eat red meat-but I was able to find the curry and could also try the Fish and Chips which looked amazing and I have heard it is great. If you are in the area-stop by for a drink or two and you will not be disappointed-you feel like you are transported to England with these type of pub.

    Came to Ambleside on a weekday as I had to go to a dealership nearby. I love British pubs from…read moresimilar places in the city, and they have chips (french fries) so my son would be happy. It was bright and sunny outside, but traditionally dark and well worn inside. You order at the bar and they bring everything to your table. Owners were very nice as you'd expect. I got their house bitter cask ale. Very good however please note this is close to room temperature than a typical cold beer; I personally love the style and this was a good example. My son doesn't understand that British people call fries chips, so we ended up having to get him French fries and potato chips. They luckily had the latter, even if they didn't have plain ones, so we got him ketchup-flavored chips that of course he proceeded to barely eat (they were actually good). He did like the French fries/British chips, and my wife liked her breakfast sandwich even if it was a bit heavy for her. My fish and chips were really freaking good. Sizable piece of fish (haddock), nice and crisp, with a ton of chips and lots of sauces (spicy mustard, vinegar, etc). Maybe not my favorite fish and chips ever, but it hit the spot. Would come back here in a heartbeat, especially where I could relax and drink a bit more. Completely understand why they are recognized as a top bar in the US.
