A few doors up at 8 Lowther Street is the building that became the Gretna Tavern in 1916, the first pub the state opened itself, converted from Carlisle's main post office. Lowther Street has the deepest pub history in the city, and Stanleys is a very new bar on it.
The premises licence was applied for in May 2022, and the food hygiene register has it inspected that August as Stanleys Bar and Restaurant Ltd, which is the name it traded under at first: a menu running to Asian, British, burgers, Mediterranean and tapas, all at once. It has since narrowed and rebranded as Stanleys Bar & Cafe, with a plainer British and American menu. There's no older Stanleys behind either name, so no history beyond that to claim.
Bar, cafe and restaurant, doing breakfast through to the early hours, which is a wider span than most places here attempt. Live music, bottomless brunch, food all day.
