Reviews in Cumbria and Lake District

Excellent time had by all Dec 2006

Very friendly with quality food.

My favourite pub for a meal - absolutely lovely. Lots of choice, intimate and comfortable surroundings, great service and superb food. Thoroughly recommended!!!

Excellent Pub Grub!

Visited Beswicks Restaurant fantastic atmosphere, excellent meal the duck was incredible and the sweets marvellous. nearly forgot the bread they make their own and it is heaven. We have 2 favourite Restaurants in the Area Beswicks and Rustique both VERY hard to beat for overall experience both different so could pick one over the other.

Went in today coffee and toast. Hot milk would have been nice bread could be improved it is too light and falls apart. Come on Gillams get it together i am rooting for you. Queenie.

On my first visit to Gillams tea rooms I was in for a pleasant surprise. It is totally organic, vegetarian and fair trade. The waitress was friendly and the food was very nice. I have been on numerous occasions since and always find the food good. On a cold winters day its lovely to sit by a roaring fire eating good food.

Bosun's Locker re=opens March 3rd hope you pay us a visit

The ambiance at the Cumbria Cafe is unequalled in Grasmere. On any given summer evening, one can feast on traditional and moderately priced English dishes while gazing at a wishing well on a village lane and listen to the gentle bleating of the sheep nearby. The service is excellent, the dinners delicious, and views of the fells breathtaking.

EXCELLENT FOOD , SERVICE , BEER

Best steak in North Lancashire. Superb. Great beer too.

Food was amazing - proper Italian taste. Could do with having candles, Italian music to create more of an Italian ambience. Will be back again!

Always a superb experience; wood burner, Baroque music, relaxed atmosphere, welcoming staff, great food, mouth-watering home-made cakes, ambient surroundings, magazines to read and stunning views if the weather is good enough to eat outside. An absolute must.

As always the food was excellent with personal service in a relaxing atmosphere

Excellent staff and food. Can't recommend this hotel enough ! If you haven't been it's well worth a visit.

The food was excellent and service was very good. The price was very reasonable and i would recommend the cakes as the are divine.

So surprised to find this place in Barrow that I felt I had to write. Enjoyed an absolutely superb lunch, portion size was large, presentation was top end restaurant quality and the cost was ludicrously cheap. Beautiful bar, really impressed, nothing else in Barrow to compare. Granted, it took 15 minutes to arrive and I was starting to wonder why - but when I finally got the meal it's a cliche but... it was worth the wait. Excellent.
