We’re raising a glass to our brilliant partnership with Tirril Brewery this International Gin Day 🍸✨

As proud stockists of Tirril’s fantastic local beers and handcrafted gins, we’re especially pleased to serve a gin with a rather fitting name… The Royal 👑

Perfectly enjoyed with tonic (why not try a flavoured one?), ice and those Dockray views, it feels right at home here at The Royal Dockray.

Join us to celebrate International Gin Day with local drinks, sunshine, and great company in the heart of the Lakes ☀️🍻

Supporting local never tasted so good - and we look forward to seeing them at our beer festival on Friday 19th!
