We eat her often and the food and service are faultless if you have never eaten here before give it a try you will not be disappointed and you will be hooked the house wine goes down a treat very nice friendly staff and the chefs are highly praised they get full marks from me and my friends
La Mezzaluna – CarlisleAmazing as always
La Mezzaluna – CarlisleOne of our favourite places to eat in Penrith. Friendly, efficient service coupled with delicious food and a well balanced yet not overly busy menu makes for a fantastic dining experience. We like to try and eat here at least once a month. At this visit I had the Soufflé to start which is divine, followed by the mushroom cobbler. This was a random choice by me and it was bloody lovely! The carrots were cooked to perfection and were very tasty.
Grants Of Castlegate – PenrithSecond time here. We will return soon. Nice and cozy place for dinner/date. Welcoming and generous staff. The service was excellent. For the food quality, can't complain about price, it's just right. For those who appreciate italian dishes, you can pick blind folded, you won't be disappointed. Thank you for making our date special! (Again)
Adriano’s Italian Restaurant – CarlisleWe had such a lovely evening at Adrianos! The food was fantastic – everything was fresh, full of flavour, and beautifully cooked. The service was excellent, really friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere was warm and relaxed, perfect for a date night. Definitely one of our favourite places to eat in Carlisle – we’ll be back soon!
Adriano’s Italian Restaurant – CarlisleExcellent service in a charming relaxed atmosphere. All three courses were delicious especially the raspberry cheesecake.
Grants Of Castlegate – PenrithWarm welcome as always, all the staff are so friendly and welcoming. Always the most beautiful food and quick service. We come as regularly as we can absolutely love it here.
Adriano’s Italian Restaurant – CarlisleFood very average, probably wouldn't bother eating here again.
Pheasant Inn – KeswickHere in Cark on holiday We always eat at the Hope and Anchor with its extensive menu and lovely food The staff always make us feel welcome
Hope and Anchor – Grange-over-SandsI booked a table for my parents and I for 1215. Our order was taken quite quickly, however our food didnt arrive until nearly 13.15! This was not as good service as the meal that we had when we visited here in April as walk ins we were accommodated and the food arrived very quickly. There were also other people around us that had a similar wait for the food after ordering. The roast potatoes were well done and hard to cut and the Yorkshire pudding was burnt
Pheasant Inn – KeswickFabulous meal with great friendly service. Got 2 pizzas and 7 small plates for 5 of us and it was plenty. Particularly loved the Baked Feta. Highly recommend
Sage and Vine – CarlisleHaving spent time deciding where to eat we chose Goody Blake's It was quiet as there was a storm outside. The food was excellent, cooked properly and with care. We enjoyed it that much we booked for a second evening. I would definitely recommend.
Goody Blake’s – GrasmereGood food but poor service despite promises. Delicious scallops and belly pork but I don’t want my scallop starter while I’m still drinking my aperitif and I don’t want my main course popped down as the just finished starter plate is lifted. We had that experience first visit and were assured it wouldn’t happen again but it did. Shame, it could be a really nice restaurant if they can lose the feel of trying to rush things.
Lewis’s Bistro – GrasmereI was in a group of 4 people eating on a Friday night, it was busy upon entering but we were shown to our table straight away. The service was excellent and all of our food did not disappoint at all. We will all return very soon and would recommend it to everyone who enjoys quality Italian food.
Adriano’s Italian Restaurant – CarlisleAmazing food and quality service. Definitely recommended.
Sage and Vine – CarlisleWonderful food, great atmosphere and lovely staff! This is such a little gem of a pub.. huge credit to the staff who are all so friendly and welcoming and it’s very evident that this pub thrives from the great service and great food. Huge bonus that dogs are welcomed.
