Ring O' Bells is Lancaster's best-kept secret. A Grade II listed pub dating to 1769, it sits on King Street in the city centre — but the garden is entirely hidden from the street, tucked away on a split-level patio at the back of the building. The kind of outdoor space you have to know about. And once you know, you keep going back.
Ring O' Bells is featured in our guide to the best Lancaster pubs — our editorial pick of the 17 city pubs grouped by character.
Ring O' Bells has a south-facing patio (200°), which means it typically catches the best sun late morning through the afternoon. The medium outdoor space is open, making it at its best in settled weather.
Golden Pints tracks the sun position for this pub in real time — check the live tracker to see whether it's currently in sun, partial sun, or shade before heading out.
Ring O' Bells is well placed if you're already around Lancaster's city centre, the canal, the castle quarter, and the university. It can work well as part of a wider afternoon or evening out in Lancaster.
