Lakes Brew Co have announced that they will open a taproom in Ambleside, in the heart of the Lake District, in early 2025.

Their hope is to create a vibrant, inclusive, family-friendly social space for locals and visitors, which blends the modern and traditional elements of the area.
The venue will offer and showcase a wide range of their own award-winning craft beers, brewed and packaged at their brewery, 14 miles away. There will also be a wide selection of other drinks.
For the last two years, the brewers have successfully run a pop-up tap space once a month, in the brewery on the Mintsfeet industrial estate in Kendal. These will continue. The pop up weekends have grown with every passing month. The team don’t want to give up the personal interaction with the loyal following who have supported them from the beginning.
Lakes Brew Co have invited Toast of Windermere to join them as their on-site food vendor in the new venture. Toast are looking to expand on their current site and take their street toast to the next level, using locally sourced produce.
“The hope is to create a space where everyone can go, feel relaxed, drink some great beer, and eat some amazing food, by two modern, local independent businesses,” said Lakes Brew Co co-founder Michelle Gay.
“The space and offer will be something completely different to what you can currently get in Ambleside at the moment.”
