Faultless food and service

Food was amazing as always and the staff are very attentive. Had a fab night.

Very good food and excellent service from a very friendly and cheerful man who was run off his feet. We were at the far end of the bar, away from the fire and it was chilly.

We booked a table for two to celebrate a birthday as we had several people recommend the restaurant to us and even though we have passed the premises in the car hundreds of times it often goes unnoticed. The website looked good and the booking procedure was straight forward. We were welcomed by very pleasant and attentive staff who made us feel as welcome as the interior was warm and friendly. The menu is uncomplicated yet attractively descriptive and simple to understand with a good choice of starters, mains and desserts.

What a friendly place! Atmosphere very welcoming, warm and cosy. Tasty food and super service all delivered in a relaxed, friendly manner. Will certainly be returning. Well done to the whole team!

Amazing in every way, atmosphere, food, service and fantastic value for money

We stayed this December in Keswick for my husbands 50th birthday celebrations. We booked a meal at the Pheasant Inn, Keswick for a party of 12, the quality of food, service, atmosphere and friendliness of ALL the staff was absolutely spot on. The staff could not do enough for us, highly recommend.

An excellent meal

Excellent service from the moment we arrived, food was delicious couldnt fault anything

We ordered a winter warmer for 3 people. This consisted of celery and apple soup which was hot and plentiful, albeit, not much taste. The turkey sandwich was disappointing as the thick bread was dry. The salad leaves were wilted so quite a sad meal overall. We thought we would have a glass of mulled wine and a mince pie to try and redeem the meal. This arrived cold with mince pies being served 20 mins later. We returned the cold mulled wine but ate the mince pies which were very nice. We had a glass of red wine for 2 of us and a coffee for the driver. The price was £64.00 with the mulled wines deducted as we couldn't drink them. Staff pleasant but not attentive service. yet we were charged 10% service charge. The hotel was nicely decorated for Christmas and the open fires were lovely. However, we probably won't be returning next year.

I love this restaurant. It has great atmosphere great staff great food and is good value for money

Great find, lovely homecooked food served with a warm friendly smile in a traditional pub atmosphere.

A cosy pub with excellent food, a cosy log fire and super friendly staff! We came for a meal at Christmas and were not disappointed. The atmosphere was very welcoming and the staff genuinely cared and were interested in our holiday, brilliant hospitality! I really liked the timber beams and rustic feel as we sat by the log fire, having our 3 course meal. The quality of the food was spot on. Defo worth a stopping by for dinner but be sure to book on advice.

Great place and lovely staff. The food is lovely and if you dont eat large portions they do half portions of risotto etc. The xmas menu is great especially the lamb chops which were massive and cooked like they had been flame grilled so super tasty. We love this place and when we pop in always feel welcome. Also very nice toilets!

A great dining experience, the food was very good , well presented and all the “Team” were friendly and attentive. Very enjoyable.

Beautiful meal as always . Staff really friendly . Be back soon xx

Great service, atmosphere and fab food. Fun for all the family, we had 3 generations at our table. One of our guests was 20-30 mins late but it was no problem for the team who allowed the rest of us to relax with a drink and wait for them to join us, despite a busy restaurant. Nothing seemed too much trouble. Prices good value too. Thank you.

Great Thai food and friendly service.
