Reviews in Cumbria and Lake District

We were staying at the Wheatsheaf and booked a table for 7.30pm. We also had breakfast the next morning. We shared a halloumi starter and both had the steak and Swan pie with mash. Very nice food, well cooked and nicely presented. There was lots of gravy but it would have been better if it was home made. The breakfast was excellent. Service was friendly and prompt. The IPA and black heart were also very good. I find Lancashire can be about 10% more expensive than Yorkshire but there you go.

Lovely meal, cosy atmosphere ,friendly and helpful staff. Will hopefully go again soon.

Delicious food, we really enjoyed it. The menu is so well thought out, exciting and cooked perfectly. The atmosphere is friendly and inviting, a lovely little restaurant. All the staff are brilliant, friendly, helpful, efficient, personable. Definitely good value for money, a real treat.

Every year we visit this superb Bistro. The food is always top class and the new specials board is excellent. Caring and thoughtful staff and the owner/chef always has time to converse with the clientele.

Best food in the area by far. Lovely atmosphere and service. Excellent gluten free options. We always come here several times when we stay locally.

Excellent service from welcoming and helpful staff, would recommend the pub and its facilities to anyone. Food quality, choice and value for money was exceptional, I really can’t fault anything.

This was the 4th time this year i came up from Stockport and chose to go back to Grants for Saturday evening meal. We have tried different places over the last few years, but nothing matches the quality. The service from Heather has been excellent and hats off to the chef, perfectly cooked fillet medium rare every single time. see you next time.

6 of us went for a meal before ladies day at the races. Cannot fault a single thing. Food amazing, service exceptional. Great value for money and will definitely be going again.

As always, great food, great service in a great pub.

food was great especially as small portion was available as elderly clients we don't like wasting food with large portions. good value for money for food. we found wine very expensive approx £9 for a medium glass of ordinary wine , but we might just be out of touch. would go back again but stick to beer.

Lovely staff, food was great.

Fantastic place to walk to just outside the town with welcoming staff and a good choice of beers, the food menu is great with pub food favourites alongside some delicious specials..

Lovely evening., booked online when we arrived and luckily a table was available. The food was superb and the staff very friendly. The restaurant was busy with a good atmosphere and dogs are welcome too

Excellent food will definitely return and recommend you to are friends
