See more about this pub on WhatPub, CAMRA's national pub guide.

A traditional country pub close to the popular Hadrian's Wall path. Although opened up, the interior still has the feel of three distinct rooms. There's a games room at the back, The bar room is cosy and welcoming with a roaring fire in winter and there is a separate dining room. Some interesting historical State Management Scheme documents adorn the walls. The Drovers is very much a pub at the heart of it's community with some basics available to buy. It also has a well-deserved reputation for excellent food and as an oasis for lots of different and sometimes obscure (for the area) real ales. Winner of the Solway branch pub of the year award and Cumbria Pub of the Year for 2015 and 2016 and 2023, West Pennines Pub of the Year 2015 and National Pub of the Year finalist 2015.
