Welcome to The Wainwright


The Wainwright is a traditional pub on Lake Road in Keswick town centre. We refurbished the old 'Four In Hand' over the Winter of 2014/15 and opened at the end of April 2015. We are dog friendly, having oak floors throughout, and hope to provide a relaxing atmosphere for the casual tourist as well as the committed user of the Fells.

We are proud to provide up to eight real ales, all from Cumbrian breweries.
