Border Gate Beefeater

Can Premier Inn guests still get food and breakfast?

Yes. Whitbread says food and drink continue to be available for hotel guests, including breakfast, evening meals and drinks. The exact dining space, menu, opening pattern and offer eligibility may differ from the former Beefeater operation, so hotel guests should check the live Premier Inn booking information before arrival.

The former Beefeater should no longer be treated as a public restaurant. Old Beefeater menus, booking links, promotions and public opening hours are no longer current.

What happened to Border Gate Beefeater?

Border Gate was part of Whitbread's closure of the remaining Beefeater estate in September 2026. Its final announced public trading date was 10 September 2026, three days after the Cumbria Brewers Fayre closures on 7 September.

Cumbria Guru is retaining this Place page because people will continue to search for Border Gate, particularly when looking for the adjacent Premier Inn, old bookings, directions or replacement dining information.

Where is Border Gate?

The former restaurant is at Carleton, Carlisle, Cumbria, CA4 0AD, beside Premier Inn Carlisle M6 Jct42 and close to Junction 42 of the M6.

If you are not staying at the hotel and need somewhere to eat, use the latest Cumbria Guru Carlisle listings rather than relying on old Border Gate opening hours or menus.
