Reviews in Cumbria and Lake District

fantastic food

A truly first class restaurant. Winning lots of awards and I can see why. Our meal was incredible. Tasty as well as inventive. In a perfect setting for a romantic meal for two.

Wonderful 2 days at The Pheasant Bassenthwaite. Our room was lovely and the original bar was amazing! We ate in both dining rooms and both meals were excellent! Would heartily recommend The Pheasant to anyone!

Excellent and filling lunch in their restaurant overlooking the lake. Myy Lebanese chicken and Churizo was very tasty and good to look at. Great hotel too in a perfect spot

Went to Tapios for lunch and was well impressed. Lovely tapas in central Windermere. Will return at night for a few vinos too!

Just tried to book for a meal. Says dogs allowed on website, but they are not allowed while food is being served. So we did not book.

Fantastic decor, well laid out, very clean and staff very welcoming. Good choice of food and drinks. Unfortunately when saying 'Goodbye and thanks' on exit, no member of staff acknowledged it.

What a find! A gorgeous country pub hidden away with great food and service. A notch above most pubs and one I would heartily recommend to others!

Best cafe in town ample plate full delicious food

Love the pheasant. Didn't stay this time just popped in for lunch in the bistro. Great food and service in a spot that I hope never changes.

An amazing lunch, so full so happy.

Our favourite coffee shop. excellent food, best coffee and staff really nice. We like to sit outside in all weathers with our border collie moss and people watch ,love it

Very much enjoyed my guinea fowl in the bistro last night, tasted as good as the presentation...

What a great pub that oozes character!

Warm welcome and the customers were nice as well!!! Great location and just off the beaten track to ensure nice mix of locals and holiday makers. Will be back.

Quite simply the best , would recommend to anyone who likes the best food

Arrived shortly before closing but received a very warm welcome and were shown to our table. Very prompt and attentive service. Excellent food, great value for money. Staff were very courteous and we weren't rushed even though it was getting late.Would visit again if staying in Penrith.

Poor pub,no warning signs about lit candles on window ledge,and this burnt my 150 pound jacket,and all I got has a apology was the shops had a sale on. Iwas lucky this was just my jacket but god for bid if this was a child this could of been really nasty.
