🍻 History, quality and community spirit all under one roof.

A huge congratulations to The Sportsman Inn in Carlisle on being crowned City Pub of the Year by Solway CAMRA.

For centuries, The Sportsman has been at the heart of Carlisle's pub scene, and today it continues to set the standard. From perfectly kept cask ales and delicious home-cooked food to the warm welcome that greets every customer, the team consistently delivers the kind of experience that keeps people coming back.

Its reputation speaks for itself. Alongside previous honours such as Winter Pub of the Season, The Sportsman has earned regular recognition in the CAMRA Good Beer Guide and remains one of the city's most loved traditional pubs.

This latest award celebrates the passion, hard work and dedication of the entire team, who continue to preserve the pub's rich heritage while making it a thriving destination for beer lovers and the local community alike.

👏 Congratulations to our Publican, Amanda Picken, and everyone at The Sportsman Inn on another fantastic achievement.

PUMPKIN DECORATING TODAY | 3PM–5PM 🎃

We’ve moved to Plan B and brought the pumpkin decorating indoors! We can’t wait to welcome everyone for an afternoon of creativity and Halloween fun!

A couple of things to note as this is a FREE event:

We’ve chosen to keep this event free because we believe every child should have the chance to join in the holiday fun.

As it is a free, drop-in event, we can’t predict exactly how many people will attend. This means there may be a short wait for a space at the decorating table. Our friendly team will be on hand to help and let you know when a space is ready. Our bar and kitchen will be open for you in the meantime! Colouring in pages will be available while your child waits.

Good news! We have plenty of pumpkins! Our only limitation is space, so please bear with us if there’s a little wait.

Thank you for your patience and support. We’re looking forward to seeing everyone! 🎃👻
