Food was fantastic as always, staff always great of the mark cleaning plates and asking for drinks only thing let it down was clearly issue between a couple of staff members as with us siting by the bar we could feel the tension
La Mezzaluna – CarlisleExcellent meal, super bistro in the heart of Grassmere - service excellent, very attentive We will return - thank you for making our experience at your lovely restaurant memorable one
Lewis’s Bistro – GrasmerePaying a visit to the Lakes we wanted somewhere special to dine out one evening. The website and menu looked really good so a booking was made. I have to say that we fell lucky. A great place for an evening meal with superb food and excellent service. It’s unfortunate that we live so far away otherwise Grants of Castlegate, to give it its full title would be our “go to place.”
Grants Of Castlegate – PenrithOur second visit and just as brilliant as we remembered. Great choice of classic food with amazing steak and stout pie made in house. We love the atmosphere that only an old English inn provides, from the warming log fire to the chunky old tables and chairs. It’s very comforting and welcoming and a great place to come for some delicious food. Can’t wait to visit again.
The Wheatsheaf at Beetham – MilnthorpeAbsolutely amazing food, top quality food and superb service. Our new favourite place to eat. We'll be back!
Pig and Whistle – Cartmelone of the best meals I've had in a long time. We both loved the friendly welcome and the cosy setting. The food was delightful - my sea bass was cooked to perfection and the accompanying veg were really good, not overly crunchy as appears to be the modern way. Just wish Grasmere was a bit closer - we'd be there once a week! Thank you - we've had quite a few mediocre meals recently and this was outstanding.
Lewis’s Bistro – GrasmereWe had an excellent meal on Saturday evening. The food was excellent as was the service. We would definitely recommend this restaurant and will visit next time we are in Grasmere. Plus they are dog friendly.
Lewis’s Bistro – GrasmereFantastic meal at La Mezzaluna, as a regular diner at the restaurant it never lets you down, delicious food and great staff/service - will see you again soon.
La Mezzaluna – CarlisleOn arrival advised that they were running slightly behind time but would be as quick as possible. It was only a short wait of less than 10 mins when food arrived it was presented nicely, plenty of it and staff were attentive without being in your face. The costs were appropriate to the meal. Will thoroughly recommend it to others
The Wheatsheaf at Beetham – MilnthorpeA fabulous Sunday lunch. Shame that by 2.30pm a few dishes were already sold out but our next choices were still great. So nice to be able to take the dog with us. Would highly recommend.
The Wheatsheaf at Beetham – MilnthorpeAnother great Sunday lunch, a must for anyone in the Keswick, Penrith area who haven’t discovered the place yet.
Horse and Farrier – PenrithExcellent meal and delightful service. Menu included tradional Lakeland options and some creative new dishes. We loved the mackerel and cashews. The venison was generous and very tender and the whole evening was very good value.
Horse and Farrier – PenrithWe had Sunday lunch 9th Feb for my wife’s birthday and it was great. The Service was really friendly, the main course were excellent, I recommend the roast beef dinner and the sticky toffee pudding was delicious. We definitely recommend a trip to the Queens.
Queens Head Inn Tirril – PenrithFood was very good with a wide selection of dishes available. Had eaten at three other pubs and this was the best. Very popular so you need to book. Will eat here again next time I am in Keswick.
Pheasant Inn – KeswickThe food and service was exemplary, incredibly attentive and extremely delicious, highly recommended!
Lewis’s Bistro – GrasmereAnother lovely meal at Sage and Vine. Attentive friendly staff. Can’t wait until our next visit.
