Tables too close together, waitress could barely get through to the corner table. Would be nice to be shown to our table instead of being pointed out from behind the bar. Too much gossiping behind the bar. Food ok, needs some seasoning. Would have liked a dessert but because of the above we just didnt enjoy the experience. Our waitress was efficient and professional.
Lewis’s Bistro – GrasmereDinner for my wife’s birthday - on a Wednesday so it was fairly quiet. Food was superb - 3 courses & drinks & tip circa £100. Worth every penny. Service friendly but not intrusive. I have a food intolerance to onion - no problem for this chef - he adapted dishes to work for me. Honestly couldn’t fault it.

Pheasant Inn – KeswickI’m Coeliac and had best biggest fish in such light batter amazing homemade chips. The starter of shrimp with GF toast was beautiful. Too full for dessert but there were GF options. Went in the evening and it was a beautiful relaxed feel with the candles and not close to other tables. A lovely night with my other half. He had a great meal too. Decent prices too. Highly recommend.

Lewis’s Bistro – GrasmereIt was our first time in Keswick and we were not sure where to eat. We're so glad we found Plant by Kat's Kitchen. It has a relaxing atmosphere and the food is excellent too! We'll definitely go again.
Plant by Kat’s Kitchen – KeswickDined here on Wednesday evening 5th October. Superb food and good choice of all courses. Good selection of wines too. Food and drink very realistically priced. Service quick and professional. The young lady waiting on our table couldn’t do enough to make sure everything was good. Prices very, very reasonable compared to most eateries in Keswick. Little way out of town but regular buses to and from Keswick stop right outside. Make sure to book though as gets very busy every night.
