Raven

Important village centre pub situated on the world famous TT motorbike course at Ballaugh Bridge. Following a couple of sympathetic refurbishments The Raven retains a comfortable main bar, and intimate dining areas to the right and left of the bar. There is a outdoor seating area for the summer months which is hugely popular during TT motorbike race weeks,when the bikes can be seen leaping over the adjacent Ballaugh Bridge,a world famous vantage point on the course. Not unexpectedly,the walls of the pub are covered in race memorabilia and photographsIn addition to the left of the main bar area there are a series of portraits and details of racers from the late 1920's to 1960's(see photos).Rarely for the island, there is an Okells house brew Ravens Claw, permanently on sale,exclusively available only at The Raven.The brew has been consistently available for a good decade or more,and was one of the first of only a small handful of house brews available on island. There is a bespoke children's menu and the pub carries a range of malt whiskys and gins.
