If you want a piping hot, tasty Sunday lunch this is the place for you. Honestly, if we lived closer we wouldn’t bother ever cooking Sunday lunch again. We would just pop into the Greyhound Inn. The manager and staff were just lovely and it’s very dog friendly. We loved it here.
Greyhound Inn Cotehill – CarlisleExcellent meal, good quality food, cooked to perfection, served by friendly staff, no long waiting times. We will definitely go again when we are next in the area

Lewis’s Bistro – GrasmereWent yesterday evening for dinner, booking is recommended as it gets quite busy. Welcoming pleasant staff, table was ready on arrival. Food and drinks are reasonably priced and of excellent quality too. Starters dinner desserts and beer and wine for 2, £79. Will definitely be back soon. A hidden gem of a restaurant and would recommend to visit if in Carlisle too.
La Mezzaluna – CarlisleWas a last minute meal And it was fabulous. The food and staff fantastic
Lewis’s Bistro – GrasmereVery nice evening meal. Couldn't fault it, except that we couldn't eat it all because it was such a good sized portion. Good, friendly service. Thank you.
Pheasant Inn – KeswickSo impressed with the food - restaurant quality at pub prices. Haven’t eaten here before but will definitely be back on our next trip to the Lakes.
Pheasant Inn – KeswickIncredibly tasty food and great portion sizes especially after a long walk. Very friendly staff and great service despite one server bringing another tables food to our table. Great to see a gluten free beer on tap and Gf peroni. Lots of options for gluten intolerant diets but we didn't enquire about how they cater for coeliacs.
Glen Rothay Hotel and Badger Bar – RydalFood and staff where fantastic! Would definitely book again if in the area
Grants Of Castlegate – PenrithEnjoyed our first visit. Food and service very good. Not as good for me on our second visit. Please review your Thai style curry. Too sweet with no depth of flavour. Strange combination of vegetables, and too many stringy mange tout. Didn't eat it and wasn't asked by the young waitress why . Restaurant was full and tables close together, didn't want to cause a fuss. Disappointed. Hope however, my opinion on this dish is useful?
Lewis’s Bistro – GrasmereParty of two people on a walking weekend stayed locally to Badger Bar. Had both evening meals here. First night fish and chips, mushy peas and tartar sauce. Second night steak pie and chips. Service is excellent at the bar and restauaurant, the staff are very polite and helpful. Both meals were well cooked and large portions to satisfy the hungriest of people after a long hike. I would recommend the Badger bar and restaurant to anyone. We do think the price are a tad high but accept the fact. Also we are not dog people and having dogs in a restaurant is a not an ideal scenario for us. Maybe they should have a separate area for people who dine with, or without dogs! Maybe outside if you have dogs! Overall, thank you to the staff for looking after us.
