Rosemount Hotel, Douglas (Rosemount)

The Rosemount is a huge corner pub with plenty of traditional character, serving a wide mix of clientele. There are three large rooms, each with their own personalities and characters and the front two rooms can become lively at peak periods, though more sedate and relaxed during the week. Whichever room you end up in the welcome is friendly and the service friendly. There is a mix of entertainment, karaoke on a Sunday and live music on Friday or Saturday night. The pub dabbled for some years with stocking several real ales at the same time but demand at the time was limited and it reduced to one. However, pleasingly there is a renewed commitment to cask ale under the new award winning landlord and The Rosemount now supports three cask ales and recently started opening all evenings until midnight. The pub serves a large local catchment area. For visitors to the island it is to be found set back only a quarter of a mile from the promenade, a hundred and fifty yards directly up the hill from The Manx Museum.
