Why choose us

A proper pub atmosphere first, then food that gives the table a reason to come back.

The room already feels familiar from the first drink, and the food offer gives the visit even more identity once the table starts ordering.

04 reasons

01
Keep the local alive
The offer is built around the rituals that make a proper local matter: sport, quiz-led nights, community gatherings, and a room that still works for a casual pint and a longer catch-up.
02
Nepalese hospitality in a pub setting
The Lapen Inns approach is about generosity, menu guidance, and a welcome that treats people with warmth rather than formality, while the pub itself stays easy and familiar.
03
Family and community first
The venue is designed to work for daytime regulars, families, sports teams, relaxed dinners, and mixed groups who want value, comfort, and room to settle in.
04
Pints, pub classics, and Nepalese food now serving
The drinks offer is ready, and the food menu stretches from pub classics and Sunday roasts to momo, curries, and grills.

How to order

1

Start with the service that fits the visit

Use the lunch menu for a full English or lighter daytime meal, keep Sunday roast in mind for the weekend, and use the full menu when dinner is the plan.

2

Keep familiar pub comfort in play

Pub classics, baguettes, wraps, and roasts keep the menu easy for mixed tables before anyone stretches into the Nepalese side.

3

Use the full menu when the table wants range

That is where the grills, curries, momo, and crowd-pleasers all sit together and make the visit feel stronger than a standard pub stop.

Atmosphere

A pub that feels welcoming before the food even arrives.

One strong first impression up front, then the practical details that help you picture the room, the outdoor spaces, and how the visit will flow.

Guest experiences

A pub for every kind of visit.

From quiet roasts to lively match nights, guests come back because the room feels right and the visit feels looked after.

03 highlights

01
Recent investment with traditional character still intact
Recent internal and external investment has sharpened the pub up while keeping the exposed brick, wooden floors, and warm local feel people expect.
02
A room built for everyday trade and bigger plans
An open-plan bar, 125 total covers, and a flexible inside-outside layout give the venue range without making it feel overbuilt or formal.
03
A pub identity with a stronger hospitality point of difference
The pub keeps its local feel, while the Nepalese kitchen, warmer service style, and clearer menu guidance give the visit more personality once you sit down.
