Reviews in Cumbria and Lake District

Last minute booking, same attentive ,friendly service . Food as fabulous as ever .

Always good quality food and friendly service from a family-run restaurant that deserves support.

Superb food and service. Never had a bad meal in any of our visits that's why we keep coming back

Really lovely little restaurant in Carlisle. The food was really good, the ambiance was warm and the people were really attentive and nice. I can only recommend it.

Really enjoyed our meals. Fresh, tasty and served by friendly attentive staff. Would definitely recommend.

Disappointed that steak pie looked like a rather flat plate pie with very few chunks of meat - must have been that tender it disintegrated. However camembert starter was tremendous, staff friendly and wine and beer were good!

We visited twice during our short break. First visit, I had to return my meal, there was a hair on my food, I had the steak & ale pie, my husband had steak. My meal was replaced but it took a while, which sadly tarnished our evening. However, we did receive an apology Second visit, no staff serving except one guy, ? Manager, very rushed off his feet as he had to serve drinks, take food orders and serve food at tables. On saying this, we didn't wait long for our table or food. We both had fish & chips which was delicious. Pun itself was nice and cozy. Would definitely return.

Great homemade food of a high quality! Very friendly & helpful staff!

Lovely olde world pub . Great food

Fantastic food. Delicious flavours and great presentation. We had the Ostrich steaks in plum sauce which was a real treat. Friendly staff too.

As always we received a warm, friendly welcome by all the staff. The food and wine was absolutely delicious, all served with a smile. Can't recommend enough and we will definitely be back next time we are in Keswick.

Took my mum here for a nice dinner while visiting Carlisle and it was just the best! Amazing service, incredible food and a really good atmosphere. The lamb is terrific but I have to say, the crumble they do is ridiculously good. A must try!

Our favourite restaurant when we visit Carlisle. The decor, atmosphere, staff and food are 10/10. Would highly recommend it.

We stopped here on the way to the Lakes. It’s a lovely pub sat in an idyllic village. Booked a table for two with our dog for lunch. Very welcoming and food was very good. I’d seen the great reviews for the nachos and they certainly didn’t disappoint! Followed up by beef pie from the specials… great pub and great service… thanks!

Excellent

Was pleased they could fit us in as booked late for Sunday lunch. Food and service was amazing as always served piping hot and didn’t have to wait too long even though it was very busy. Would always recommend to book but the staff are so accommodating and will do their best to fit you in. Lovely old Inn charm.

Excellent Pub in Keswick Warm and very welcoming staff, the food is very good always visit for a Sunday roast after a days walking about 3pm Cannot be faulted!!

Booked Sunday lunch for two and added one on the day before. Hubby had Roast Pork, I had Roast Chicken and son had Steak pie. Absolutely lovely food, well presented, generous portions and hot. Only downside was where we were sat, it was quite tight sat in the corner and three plant pots hung on the wall which were really in the way, table needed pulling out really. But we didn’t let that spoil the afternoon. We will be back, thank you!
