## A drink after the fells

After a day outside, a bar is where the walk gets talked over. Several are in the hotels and inns around the market square, a few steps from wherever you are staying in town.

Further out, hotel bars by the lakes are worth the trip for the view alone.

Every bar here is a member of the Keswick Tourism Association. Open one for opening times and food.
