  1. Punch Bowl Inn

    Modern British

    A flagstone pub that's been around forever, sitting beside a pretty church in the Lyth Valley with the kind of setting that makes people pull over on instinct. Inside, a beamed bar handles pints and informality while a more dressed-up dining room handles dinner, and the kitchen leans on Cumbrian lamb and local produce prepared without fuss. Rooms upstairs make it easy to stay and explore the surrounding hills rather than driving back in the dark.

    One honor, in evidence:

    The record strongest first

    One number, weighted & current 69
