Sage and Vine – CarlisleRestaurant Review: Lewis’s Bistro – A Fantastic Dining Experience We recently had the pleasure of dining at Lewis’s Bistro, and it was an excellent experience from start to finish. The highlight of our visit was undoubtedly the outstanding quality of the food. We ordered the Chicken Supreme and the Lamb, and both dishes were cooked to perfection. The chicken was tender and flavorful, served with a rich, well-balanced sauce, while the lamb was beautifully prepared, full of depth and perfectly seasoned. The portion sizes were generous, leaving us fully satisfied without feeling overwhelmed. Service was another standout aspect of our visit. The staff were attentive, friendly, and efficient, ensuring we were well looked after throughout our meal. Food arrived promptly, and we appreciated the genuine warmth and professionalism of the team. The only small downside was being seated near the door, where it could get a little chilly when it opened. If possible, we’d recommend requesting a table further inside for a more comfortable experience. That said, this was a minor issue in what was otherwise a fantastic meal. Overall, Lewis’s Bistro delivers excellent food, great portion sizes, and top-tier service. We’ll definitely be returning and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a high-quality dining experience.
Lewis’s Bistro – GrasmereWonderful as always. Best seafood risotto, we’ve been a few times on a Tuesday afternoon/early evening & there’s always a lovely atmosphere, excellent service & delicious food. We will definitely be back.
La Mezzaluna – CarlisleWe had a wonderful meal it was served hot and very tasty. Service was very good pleasant friendly staff. The only thing that spoiled the night was a female customer that had a very loud laugh and we could not hear each other, this had nothing to do with the restaurant
Pheasant Inn – KeswickLovely evening catching up with friends. Good food and excellent service.

Pheasant Inn – KeswickWe had a fabulous meal on Saturday as a group of 6. Easy to book a table via the website and the service was excellent, and the food perfectly delicious. We all ordered different things off the menu and we all really enjoyed our meals from start to finish. Portions are decent in size so we all left full. Only disappointment was we didn’t have room left for desserts!
Lewis’s Bistro – GrasmereVery good food and service, I could only justify a 4 for service because one of our meals had not been prepared. That said, the staff were very apologetic and got the meal prepared and out as quickly as they could and the food was worth waiting for. I had salad but pinched a few chips, wow the best chips I have tasted in a long time.
The Wheatsheaf at Beetham – MilnthorpeAbsolutely sensational meal! The Pheasant Inn is a hidden gem in the crown of Keswick. Picking a main meal was a challenge as every item on the menu sounded incredible. We both went with the Venison Bourginion, the best cooked venison I have ever tasted. The Pheasant Inn is my new go to place locally.
Pheasant Inn – KeswickAlways visit this lovely place when we visit the area. Food and service are fabulous, super dog friendly, and a lovely atmosphere. Would highly recommend.
The Wheatsheaf at Beetham – MilnthorpeThe BEST roast dinner I have ever ever had. Thankyou again!
Horse and Farrier – PenrithOne of our favourite local places to eat. Sunday lunch for 4 of us - absolutely superb as always. Great atmosphere - every table was full but service was excellent. Beer was spot on and the food really was fabulous. The new chef certainly gets a big thumbs up from us.
Horse and Farrier – PenrithHighly recommended the roast dinner. Food was so tasty and plenty to eat. Service was excellent and staff were friendly.
