Reviews in Cumbria and Lake District

The waitress was lovely and in fact all the staff were very attentive. The entrance through the public bar and through back corridors wasn’t very impressive - and the dining room very drab ! Was expecting oak beams and a cosy fire but room bland and basic . The food wasn’t very good but as it was out friends birthday we didn’t want to make a fuss ! We were asked if everything was ok and we said yes - only finding out later that no one enjoyed their food or experience

Very tasty Sunday lunch. Well presented too. Love the quirky touches round the inn. An excellent team, kitchen and front of house. A great location, in the historic village of Dacre.

Food always lovely and the staff are always very nice. Great atmosphere in a small country pub. We always look forward to our meals there, whether it’s an evening meal or a Sunday lunch. Don’t hesitate to book!

Excellent meal. Food good, service excellent, the right balance of attention while respecting our time. Had lunch on a Tuesday afternoon so not busy therefore we were not rushed to leave and left alone to finish our wine.

Lovely food good vegetarian choice, the 2 for £20 was a great mid week deal! Waitress was so nice very helpful and knowledgeable about all the food, we will definitely be back!

Ate at the Pheasant on a Tuesday night in March and it was packed out. We both had the delicious venison bourgignon which was served with perfectly cooked vegetables. Portions were very generous so I didn’t get to try the desserts.

Really lovely honest food, understated and no faffing from the staff. Well Definitely be back and happy to recommend to friends too - thank you!

We have been at Grants several times and have always been made to feel very welcome , The food has been superb each time. Looking forward to our next visit.

The service was a little less than professional. The sea bass was good. The lamb was somewhat overcooked for my taste and the accompanying fondant potatoes burnt on top, so a rather mediocre dish. The sticky toffee pudding was very good. However I would have thought it difficult to spoil Eton Mess but the fruit in it was tasteless. There was dance music playing for some reason, which didn't add much to the ambience.

Our friends took us to Grant's for a celebration. What a delight. We were thrilled with the presentation of our delicious food and the cooking on that note was off the scale. All round delicious. Of particular note were the puddings. Service was friendly, well timed, attentive and yet discrete, perfect.

We were booked at 2pm and served at 3.10pm after a mixup in the kitchen.

Probably my favourite pub in Keswick! Food is always great, really good selection on the menu. Service is excellent the staff always take great care of us. A must visit when in Keswick!

Absolutely amazing food. Best soup and swordfish I have ever eaten. Really friendly staff as well. 10/1.

We had an amazing meal .. always have an amazing meal and the staff are just so lovely friendly

Excellent food friendly service pleasant ambiance inside Resturant. We had beetroot cheese tart for starter and haddock risotto main course both dishes cooked to perfection.

We have been for a meal a few times now and each time it's been absolutely beautiful!!! The service was friendly and efficient!! Perfect. Can't wait to go again! It was a real treat.

Great food and service as usual

Lovely, traditional pub. Very welcoming staff, roaring fire and good, home-cooked food at reasonable prices. Would definitely recommend.
