"Good pub and beer well kept by friendly staff. Haven't eaten or stayed there but was impressed by the fact that while they were not serving food until later, they were advising people where else to eat"

After a pint or two, head over to the Crown Hawes for a hearty meal by the fire. Next up is the Board Inn, where one can relax and chat with the locals and their canine friends. To finish off the evening, stop by the historic Fountain Hotel (and probably our favourite pub in Hawes) for a nightcap and some more lively conversation.

We had a pint at both The Crown and The Fountain, two local pubs (and inns) in Hawes. The food menus at both looked pretty similar, and perfectly fine. The Fountain was bigger than it looked from the outside, so if you have a large group, this would be a good choice.
