Reviews in Cumbria and Lake District

Excellent award winning vegetarian/vegan restaurant. Lovely experience eating beautifully prepared food in oak panelled dining room. Very friendly and helpful staff. If you are a carnivore do try it -you won't miss the meat or fish

We had a wonderful couple of hours in The Sun's lovely beer garden on a gorgeous sunny evening, the food was good and very well priced and the staff couldn't be more helpful. Definitely a must if you're in the area on a summers evening.

This restaurant has not been open very long, yet I have already been four times. A fantastic evening each time, very good choice on food and very friendly staff. I will be back there again very soon!

Excellent food, excellent service and the atmosphere in the place was perfect. Could not fault anything. Very busy at weekend and in high season so be sure to book early!

Top quality food & wide choice of dishes. This all you can eat buffet style Restaurant is the best I have ever come across. Never have I tasted such fine food in a buffet restaurant. Evening Meal was £13 with earlier mealtimes being cheaper. There is a waitress service Restaurant upstairs too but that did look pricey. The staff were very friendly and service fast. We were on holiday for the weekend and enjoyed our meal so much on the Friday that we went back the next evening! We were lucky to get in though so booking is recommended at weekends.

This is a lovely place to go, especially during Happy Hour. The food is excellent and the service friendly and efficient. It can be crowded so it's best to book before.

Excellent Cheryl and Richard are simply the best

Very friendly family run pub in the middle of an area of outstanding beauty. Both the owners and locals are very welcoming and help make your stop very enjoyable

Fab Food, Fab pub say no more!

Excellent. I ate at Postilion last night and it was the best meal I have ever had. We came across the restaurant by chance, but what a find! We decided to go for the 3 course menu, which was £15 per person (but plenty of choice). My boyfriend and I ordered different dishes from the menu, both our starters, main courses and desserts were all really delicious. The presentation of the food was also exceptional. Atmosphere and service was excellence - a real bargain for £15 each. Will definitely be going back.

Excellent choice of real [local] ales. Well kept and delicious. Barngate brewery beers very good. good food enough to choke a donkey. Be hungry, very hungry!! A nice log fire when needed in small room. Highly recommended.

This is, by far, the best restaurant I've been to! Food was sublime, staff were lovely and couldn't do enough for us. If you're ever in Ambleside; go to this restaurant!

Very good food at reasonable prices, offering bar meals, hot and cold sandwiches, salads etc. Quick and friendly service. Will definitely be visiting again.
