Lewis’s Bistro – GrasmereI was really encouraged to see a nice menu offering with a variety of options. Our orders were taken and we were advised that there were 2 big tables in so there would be a small wait for our meals (there were 4 of us). Our food arrived 1hr 15 mins after we sat at our table and one of the meals was missing which then took a further 15-20 mins before it arrived which was a real shame as the rest of us had all finished. What we did have was absolutely delicious and very hot. I dont think you should be charged for extra gravy especially when the wait was so long and a meal was missed. There was no offer of any goodwill gesture, taking the meal off the bill, drinks etc. al the staff were nice but in these circumstances more should have been done to compensate.
Queens Head Inn Tirril – PenrithStaying in Grasmere for a short break, we first visited the Bistro on Saturday night and enjoyed the experience so much that we returned on the next available occasion, Tuesday. Friendly welcome, relaxed atmosphere and great service. Food was first rate too. Would happily return if we are in the area again
Lewis’s Bistro – GrasmereExcellent food and service. Booked for dinner while staying in Keswick. At the end of the evening booked again for dinner another night. Recommend.
Pheasant Inn – KeswickExcellent all round. Good food, great staff and lovely atmosphere. The black pudding stack was incredible, and perfect cheese board. Chicken wasn't quite perfect but nearly there, would definitely go back when in the area.
Lewis’s Bistro – GrasmereCalled in for a drink and looked at the menu etc Booked a table for three days later for early evening meal The food was superb, the staff very friendly and service very good Will certainly go back and have no hesitation in recommending the The Pheasant for food and/or drinks
Pheasant Inn – KeswickYesterday meal of Fillet Steak was very mediocre, Tonight's meal of the same was just soo different and all round delish, the potato gratin was beautifully presented unlike yesterday that was a heap of potato slices just thrown down on the plate, different Chef's?
Lewis’s Bistro – GrasmereVery good dinner but we found the menu very limited for fish lovers and vegetarians. The cooked breakfast was disappointing and the smoked salmon was inedible. Good selection for continental breakfast. We were only given a small jug of coffee for two people and both days had to ask for more. There were no serving utensils for croissants and toast. Really not what we expected from a four star hotel.
Rothay Garden Hotel – GrasmereVery good food and service.
Lewis’s Bistro – GrasmereOur walking groups summer outing meal. Enjoyed by all everything first class thank you
The Wheatsheaf Inn – KendalFour of us had a lovely meal. Great tasting and a good variety of dishes. Accompanying vegetables well cooked and a nice choice. Easy to book a dog friendly table in the bar. Great atmosphere, it was busy , but staff were timely and in their serving and got all of our orders correct. We’ll return again
Pheasant Inn – KeswickGreat experience - very friendly staff, excellent food. Best cheese board I’ve had!
Lewis’s Bistro – GrasmereHad a fabulous meal at Lewis's Bistro last night. Great food, lovely staff and at last somewhere in Grasmere where you can take your hound and have a really good quality meal. Thank you, Lewis's
Lewis’s Bistro – GrasmereGreat food as usual. Will definitely come back. Great staff and very friendly. Must make a booking especially during summer.
Lewis’s Bistro – GrasmereWhat a delightful find for our weekend away! Welcoming venue and staff who were very accommodating when I requested a change of table due to my deaf ear (otherwise I'd have only been able to hear the conversation at the next table all evening!). And quite simply THE best pork belly that my husband and I have ever eaten, highly recommend!
Lewis’s Bistro – GrasmereLovely food, very nice pub

All the ingredients are there for a perfect evening with friends- relaxing and thoughtfully created environment- friendly and helpful staff- a daily menu made with locally sourced ingredients and good beer.
