Dockray Hall
A independent pub in the heart of Penrith
Crafting Memories Since 1584
Step inside Dockray Hall and experience centuries of history woven into every stone. Dating back to the 15th century, our hall has been home to royalty, hosted travellers, and stood as a landmark at the heart of Penrith. The spirit of the past lingers in our walls, but what you’ll find today is a lively, welcoming space full of warmth and character.
From seasonal dishes crafted with local ingredients to weekends filled with live music and good company, Dockray Hall is a place to eat, drink, and gather. Whether you’re here for a relaxed lunch, a night of great food and entertainment, or simply to soak in the atmosphere, we’re proud to offer an experience that’s both timeless and refreshingly modern.

Dockray Hall Dining
Our Kitchen is taking a break
Dockray is stepping back from dining to reinvent our food offer, so the kitchen is temporarily closed. Watch this space for details of our exciting relaunch, coming soon on our website and Facebook page.
In the meantime, the pub is very much open! Join us for our weekly live music nights, and enjoy five locally brewed ales on tap, alongside a great selection of draught lagers, ciders, and fine wines.
