A New Era For The Kings Arms, Ulverston

The Kings Arms, located in the thriving market town of Ulverston, has re-opened after a four-week refurbishment programme. Acquired by Robinsons Brewery in 1982, the Kings Arms was previously a male-dominated wet-led pub which relied upon pool teams and live sport. The Robinsons design team have now transformed this dated drinkery into a classic London-style, female- and family-friendly pub, serving delicious food seven days a week.

 

 

Internally, the bar, one of the most striking features of the pub, is still located in the same position but it has been tastefully revamped with a modern tiled back bar, showcasing the wide selection of drinks available; including premium spirits, wines and continental lagers. Contemporary furniture and deep-button leather banquette seating means everyone can enjoy the best seat in the house, together with cutting-edge lighting to illuminate the gleaming new look and create the perfect mood for socialising and meeting new people. The walls throughout have been updated with traditional dado wall panelling and house of hackney velour floral fabrics and drapes, partnered with glossy Victorian ceramic wall tile designs in the newly refurbished bathroom areas.

 

 

Externally, the Kings Arms has been decked out with new signage and an upgraded alfresco drinking area with comfortable seating, festoon lighting and a roaring open fire, creating the perfect atmosphere for casual evening drinks. In fact, you’d be forgiven for thinking you were still in the pub’s lounge, such is the warmth and comfort provided.

 

 

Steve Robinson, Business Development Manager for Robinsons Brewery, says: “We wanted the new look to be in keeping with the period of the architecture, sympathetic to the building and the town’s origins, and a real showcase of the pub’s period features. It's still very much a traditional pub, with all the copper fittings, but we’ve introduced a new food and drinks menu which we hope will attract a broader range of customers. The renovation has hailed a new era for the Kings Arms, one that is accessible, inclusive, and friendly with lots to enjoy.”
