The Sidings is a nice place to eat (or have a pint if you're so inclined) in Castletown. The food is quite decent, and some menu items such as the Fish and chips are 2 for £20, which makes it an ideal place to take your partner. I've had a variety of dishes here, ranging from fish and chips, lasagne, curry, and the giant Yorkshire pudding. Everything has been satisfactory so far. The fish is always amazing, as the batter used is quite succulent, at least every time I've come. The atmosphere is very cozy, especially when there's a fire going in the main room. The only complaint would be that the chairs and tables are quite old and worn, and don't appear as clean as a newer establishment. However, this isn't necessarily bad, as it fits the homely feel of a local pub. The staff are friendly enough. One time, one of the local patrons failed to turn up for a few days, so one of the employees inquired about this particular patron's well-being online. The only drawback is that the napkins and cutlery are stocked at each table, and sometimes they aren't restocked fast enough. Therefore, I had to pilfer napkins or a fork from another table. Whether you are a visitor to the island or a local, this place is easy to access. It's just right there in front of the train station. The car park often has a spot though this probably would not be the case during the TT. Overall, I highly recommend it, especially during lunch time.
Great food, ale and 🔥.
What a fantastic pub. Great staff, wholesome food and good selection of excellent beers. What a shame huge swathes of he Mainland have lost touch with what a real pub should be.
Food was great, had a child's portion and it was plenty 😋
Very friendly local style pub with a great Ale selection (CAMRA pub of the year '15) and great value food. I came in here after a walk with my wife and my dog and had a few great pints of IPA (£3) and a rump steak (£14). The chips were bloody amazing. Lunch, a casual evening meal or a few beers in a relaxed environment

Quaint, cosy and full of charm from a bygone era. ‘The Glue Pot’ as it is far better known sits right on the harbour in Castletown and is literally a stone’s throw from Castle Rushen.

A registered historic building dating back to 1833. Steeped in history, some of it a little dark…
