Tucked away in the historic heart of Carlisle, Crown Lane Cellar is a cosy, atmospheric space designed for connection. Whether you’re catching up with friends, enjoying a quiet drink with someone special, or looking for a refined spot before or after an event, our doors are open for you.

Step inside and you’ll find intimate lounges, candlelit corners, live music evenings, and a carefully curated menu of cocktails, wines, coffees and soft drinks. We’re passionate about creating a relaxed, accessible space where the music isn’t too loud, the conversation flows, and everyone feels welcome.

A Place to Gather

Crown Lane Cellar is more than a bar — it’s a community hub. From pre-drink meet-ups and after-work wind-downs to special celebrations in our Garden Room, we’ve crafted spaces that feel personal and comfortable. Small groups are always welcome, and when possible, we can reserve a quiet corner for your gathering.

Live Music & The Arts

Every week, we host live music, jazz-and-blues evenings, and collaborative arts events with local performers. Carlisle is full of creative talent, and we’re proud to provide a home for it. Whether it’s Thursday piano nights or special arts collaborations, something new is always happening here.

Rooted in Local Carlisle

We believe in celebrating our neighbourhood. The Old Town’s rich history, vibrant venues, and independent spirit shape everything we do. We collaborate with local artists, makers and neighbouring businesses to help bring more life into this part of the city.

Your New Favourite Spot

If you’re looking for somewhere warm, stylish and friendly — a place where service matters and you’re greeted like a regular — Crown Lane Cellar is the place to be. Pop in for a drink, stay for the atmosphere, and become part of the speakeasy family we’re building here in Carlisle.
