Our party enjoyed a first class evening at Gilpin Lodge. The food was as you would expect from a Michelin starred venue. Service was very professional and knowledgeable. Finally we loved the venue with its different dining rooms and upmarket feel. Highly recommended!

Finkles – KendalMy first visit was only a few months ago and I have been twice since. Had the Bistro menu one night different from the normal menu in content and presentation. Excellent . Had the main menu the other occasion and was again blown away it was stunning. There was a big office party in that night and it did not affect the service and everything was perfect. Still can not believe the price is so low
Beswicks Restaurant – Broughton-in-FurnessThis restaurant was recommended to us by one of the locals so we thought we would give it a try. It's got a cosy friendly Italian atmosphere. They cook your food to your own liking if you request it slightly different. It was excellent. Only small and very busy even though it was mid November when we went. Advise making a reservation or go early.
Villa Positano – WindermereVery good food and modern oriental look.
Jade Fountain – Barrow-in-Furnessthis is an ok place with very little space in side so we had to sit in rain
Yard 46 Coffee Bar – KendalThis is one of the best restaurants I have ever been to and i personally think that it deserves an award because of its lovely staff get chefs and outstanding food i think that it is a great family run restaurant and every one should have a visit down to Kendal and eat at Finkles outstanding food
Finkles – KendalAfter sampling restaurants for over 60 years including ones on the QE2. Beswicks is surely one of the best, we cant recommend it highly enough. We are made to feel so special every time we visit, the choice and quality of the food is excellent. And for a restaurant of its quality the prices are remarkable.
Beswicks Restaurant – Broughton-in-FurnessThe food is absolutely delicious and the service was excellent. The cafe was busy yet we didn't have to wait long to have our order taken or have our food delivered to the table. The fact that all of the food is organic, fair trade and, wherever possible, locally produced is a credit to the owners. I will definitely be visiting again.
Gillams Tearoom – UlverstonWell what can we say, this place is fantastic, better than any restaurant in miles. It is a favourite with all the family and we have been many times, every meal is out of this world, the service is outstanding and you are made to feel so welcome.
Beswicks Restaurant – Broughton-in-FurnessIf you are a fan of good service, a great atmosphere and excellent food then Amigos is the place for you! The friendly staff make you feel very welcome and nothing is too much trouble! Everything is cooked to order so although my partner ALWAYS wants something which doesn't come as standard, the staff checked with the chef and quickly came back to us to confirm that nothing was too much trouble. The food was thoughtfully cooked and presented and you had just enough of everything. Despite eating a lot neither of us felt bloated or as though we had had a heavy / fatty meal at the end. The atmosphere on the evening was just right and we both enjoyed discovering the hidden artist in us as we utilised the complementary crayons supplied on every table for the purpose of turning the white paper tablecloth into a work of art! (the best of which were stuck on the walls!) We had a lovely evening here and the staff went out of their way to give me step by step directions and even suggest other places of interest that my partner and I could visit in the area. Can't wait to go back!!!! Thank you !!
