Reviews in Cumbria and Lake District

We were a large family group including one child and we couldn’t have had a better evening!! The food was wonderful, so tasty and served so quickly. The staff went out of their way to be friendly and helpful and the atmosphere was really relaxing and laid back. We all enjoyed our meal( including our vegan nephew) and would thoroughly recommend a visit!! In fact, we hope to return when we’re next in Penrith.

Visited on Thursday party of 4 girlies...Lovely atmosphere, food and service impeccable. Will definitely go again when I next visit Carlisle

Always have a good experience at The Pheasant.

I’ve been to this restaurant several times now, and it’s consistently excellent. On my latest visit the service was friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. The food was delicious as always – fresh, full of flavour, and clearly made with care.

Lovely meal and attentive service

Have been to this restaurant a few times when in carlisle and have never been disappointed the food is always 10 out of 10. The service is good as well .

Another fantastic night at Sage & Vine. Food fantastic, the team couldn't be more helpful and attentive and the atmosphere perfect. We will be back x

Excellent food and service at Mezzaluna on Friday night. Good value for money. Thanks again and see you next year.

Staying for a long weekend just outside Keswick the pheasant inn was recommended for Sunday lunch . Unfortunately the only time slots still available on the early afternoon sitting were 12 & 12:15pm. I think they do cater for walk ins but I would advise pre booking (But unlike me more than the previous evening). The pheasant is easy to book online. You can book a table in either the dog friendly or not areas of the inn. On arrival for our 12 15 booking we waited at the bar and a member of staff showed us to our table. We ordered drinks (local craft beers) and when they arrived we ordered two Sunday roasts. We had probably a twenty minute wait ,but it was worth the wait! The food was deliciously cooked and there was plenty of it ! I had beef the gaffer had chicken. Unlike some places the Yorkshire puddings are a cheap way of filling a plate. But these were balanced on top of the roast. Unfortunately we can't comment on the desert menu as we were too full! For the area I think just over £20 is good value. The staff are very friendly and even though it was very busy the chef took time out to ask if everything was ok Overall I would highly recommend the pheasant inn for Sunday lunch. But pre book to avoid disappointment!

Food excellent Service fantastic

Lovely little restaurant with a great menu. Good was great and the service was excellent. Will come again

I had the roast beef Ciabatta which was lovely but the salad that came with it was very uninspiring, just a few leaves, onion and 2 bits of pepper but worst of all no dressing.

I visit Mezaluna often and had Lovely service and food as usual. The staff are always pleasant .

Food and service was outstanding. Good value for money, will definitely be back.

Great meal and atmosphere

Food is absolutely gorgeous!! Couldn't pick a favourite from the tapas dishes because every one is amazing. Staff are so nice nothing is too much trouble. Will definitely be back x

We had a large group and the service was excellent. We had a late add on and it was no problem at all they happily accommodated us. Food was very tasty and would definitely go back.
