The Furness Railway - JD Wetherspoon — Restaurant in England

My recent trip to Weatherspoons in Barrow,

I must say, attempting to encapsulate the essence of Kallin's bartending prowess is akin to navigating a labyrinth of complexity, for the man's skills and character are nothing short of exceptional.

First and foremost, Kallin's profound knowledge of mixology is a testament to his undying passion for his craft. Much like an alchemist, he deftly combines spirits, bitters, and juices to craft passionately innovative concoctions that tickle the senses in ways unimaginable. His ability to effortlessly tailor each libation to the individual preferences of his guests, coaxing out nuances of flavor and captivating the palate, is truly an art form that elevates the entire drinking experience.

But it is not merely his exceptional mixology skills that set Kallin apart; it is the seamless dance he orchestrates behind the bar that leaves one hypnotized and awestruck. His movements are as elegant as a maestro conducting a symphony, effortlessly juggling multiple orders and requests while maintaining an air of calm and grace. It is truly mesmerizing to witness the symphony of meticulously lined glasses, shakers straining to unleash cascades of liquid gold, and garnishes delicately placed as if a work of art.

Beyond his technical prowess, Kallin possesses an innate ability to connect with his patrons on a deeply personal level. His warmth and genuine interest in each individual's story transform every interaction into an authentic bond. Whether it's lending an empathetic ear to the weary traveler or suggesting a libation that perfectly complements the evening's desires, his genuine attentiveness makes one feel truly cared for, transforming the impersonal into the familiar.

As for his demeanor, Kallin exudes a captivating blend of professionalism, charisma, and unyielding passion. His infectious enthusiasm for his craft shines through every interaction, creating an atmosphere that is both sophisticated and welcoming. Yet, he remains remarkably humble, never letting his skill overshadow the simple joy of serving others and creating unforgettable moments that soothe the soul.

In the realm of bartending, Kallin is undoubtedly a luminary, a guiding light that illuminates the path for others to aspire towards greatness. His complex mixology skills, orchestrated ballet behind the bar, genuine connection with patrons, and unwavering dedication to his craft make him a true maestro of mixology. It is a privilege to bear witness to his artistry and to savor the fruits of his labor, for his creations transcend ordinary libations and instead offer a journey of sensory delight and heartfelt connection.

My husband and I came down from Scotland for a couple of nights Friday 18th July till the Sunday. We arrived on the Friday around 3pm and found a parking space easily in the hotel car park. There is an opening in the car park into the beer garden which takes you through to the bar and reception. At reception we were greeted with a lovely lady who asked us to fill in a short form. My signature and our car registration. This is the norm at any hotel in my experience. We were offered one or 2 key cards and the lady explained we were on the top floor which we could reach by stairs or lift. There is a door which is only accessible with your key card in the lounge which takes you to the lifts. There were 3 large lifts so you never had to wait. Corridors walking to our room were spotless. We had a beautiful very large bed. I would say bigger than king size and it was very comfortable. Again bedding spotless. Bathroom was large with a fantastic shower. Soap dispenser in the toilet area and in the shower. Plenty of towels, toilet paper and tissues included. There was an iron ironing board and hairdryer within the wardrobe. The dressing table had tea and coffee, hot chocolate, sugar milk, biscuits. Lovely clean mugs and glasses. Also 2 bottles of water. There was a large window with double glazing so there was no noise. The window did not open but the room had air conditioning which was very pleasant. We were fortunate to have lovely weather and sat in the beer garden which was non smoking although there was a lot of vaping going on. It was very very busy and the staff did a fantastic job serving food and drinks and cleaning tables. We thoroughly enjoyed sitting there. Again inside the bar the staff did a wonderful job serving food and drinks and clearing up always asking the customers if they could get them anything else. When you come out of the front doors and turn right and right again that takes you up to the town centre and literally behind the hotel there is a Chinese and Indian restaurant and lots more in the town. We ate in a lovely little Italian restaurant the first night and the Chinese beside the hotel the 2nd although I would recommend booking. Check out time from the hotel is 11am which is great and we had breakfast on our last day which was lovely and only £11. Needless to say the bar is very busy even at 8am with locals and visitors having breakfast. If you show your key card at the bar you can have as many hot drinks as you want. As you can probably guess we will definitely be back as the Hotel, lounge and area around was first class and the management should be very proud of all their staff who...

We recently stayed in your venue for roughly a week, the room was very spacious and quiet away from the pub which was good! Unfortunately there were a couple of marks on the carpet, the big mirror and the TV screen! Food wise Unfortunately I don't understand how the venue got 5 star rating on food hygiene as I had scrambled eggs on toast one morning for breakfast inwhich I ended up with egg shell in my breakfast and when my plate was taken away the manager hid my plate underneath and pretended she didn't see it when it was clearly there to see! Now to me that could of come from anywhere 🫤, Also with the cleaners we put the please clean my room sign on the outside of the door every morning left our used towles on the floor only to find that they had been left there, we then had to put them outside the room for the cleaners to pick them up when they should of done that as part of their daily routine within the cleaning of the room! They left our used glasses & cups in the room also which we then had to put in the hallway for the cleaners to take! Again this should of been standard practice as part of their cleaning routine! The cleaners had also left our bin full of rubbish in our room again which should of been done every day but only done occasionally on odd days! The beds were a little uncomfortable too, How ever when I accidentally caught the emergency pull chord the hotel receptionist did phone to ask if everything was OK so that was reassuring! This is why I've given the ratings I have and if everything was up to scratch I would of given more stars! Were not sure If we will stay again due to the problems we had and we will have to think about whether or not it's an option for us! Unless of course these things improve...
