Reviews in Cumbria and Lake District

My lad and I came to Grasmere for a race, and soon as we landed he wanted to come here as he liked it so much last year. The staff are very friendly, the food is really nice, the portions are pretty big. We've only ever eaten outside and it's a nice atmosphere, quiet even with the road next to it, a few cheeky birds hopping around eating crumbs, which really doesn't bother us at all, we like it. Unless something disastrous happens with the food, we'll be back again

Good well cooked food in a very pleasant atmosphere Will come back

Superb food & service. I would definitely recommend and would love to eat here again

Great staff always helpful and attentive Great food as always Dog friendly Good atmosphere

Lovely meal and friendly, helpful staff. We travelled up from Lincolnshire but some guests travelled a lot further to eat here!

We have eaten twice here now, and can honestly say, how friendly, this place is. The food is tremendous, plenty of it, nice and hot, and served quickly with a smile. I cannot believe how we have not visited sooner. We will definitely keep visiting as we travel to the Lake District (Pooley Bridge) often.

Great service food was excellent good vibe about the place Our second visit already looking forward to out third

The staff went out of their way to accommodate a change of time request and the food was excellent. We have been there before and will for sure to go back again

Lovely meal, we had fillet steak and cheeseboard. Absolutely gorgeous and lovely atmosphere in the restaurant. Will definitely return

We had a wonderful Sunday Lunch at Harry's, superb locally sourced produce. We couldn't manage a pudding, but the description sounded fabulous. Friendly and helpful staff. We'll definitely recommend and will be back.

Great food , fabulous pub and very friendly and helpful staff

Fabulous quality and value Sunday roast dinners in an old world atmosphere. Excellent staff and service.

Excellent service, delicious food and cosy ambience. The perfect recipe!

We stayed at the North Lakes hotel for a spa weekend and wanted a special meal out. Looking at the menu online and reviews we chose Grants and were extremely happy with our choice. Our expectations where food is concerned are high and Grants did not disappoint. Do not let the location or first look at Grants deter you from taking a seat. The taste and presentation of the food was excellent. The service staff were very friendly and attentive. The online booking was simple and the following communication regarding booking reassuring. My only negatives were atmosphere (especially as one of the first diners that evening) it lacked finishing touches in the restaurant itself in decoration and music and crockery (I know modern tends to be earthenware but with such gorgeous food I hate the scraping noise when trying to savour the last bits on the plate). This said, the food and attentive, knowledgeable staff will bring me back!! Thanks for the salmon recommendation x

Cena piacevole con due ottime fish pie e due fagiani un po' duretti, anche se di gusto buono. Verdure cotte rivedibili e un po' insipide. Buona la birra e gentile il servizio. Prezzi in linea con altri pub inglesi, tendenti all'alto.

Always a warm welcome and good was brilliant. Particularly like the range of specials they always have. As ever the fish pie and chicken/ham pie are top favourites! Oh and don’t forget the New Zealand saivvy blanc!! Will be coming back at end of week for more!

Excellent food, albeit my wife’s salmon could have been slightly less cooked for her liking. Otherwise this was a very good evening and you get what you pay for. Very enjoyable! See you again soon.

Small portions,long wait between courses and prices extornshanet.
