Reviews in Cumbria and Lake District

Had a great meal here whilst on holiday. Fantastic food, Friendly staff and superb service. Loved everything about The Pheasant Inn, wish we lived closer so we could return more often.

Great country pub/inn. Friendly staff, made to feel welcome and the food was amazing. The battered fish and chips was one of the best I’ve tasted in a long time. The size of the fish was huge and it was cooked perfectly. We weren’t rushed and allowed to relax and enjoy our evening even after finishing our food. Highly recommend.

Had eaten here on a previous holiday so booked in advance of our visit. Once again was not disappointed. Lovely intimate restaurant with friendly service & excellent food. As everything is freshly prepared you need to be a little patient but with a bottle of wine to keep us company this was never a problem. Would certainly recommend.

Came to Grasmere as a couple for a break and found Lewis’ through some research and the reviews. My first couple of choices were sold out (a positive as it summarises the popularity and freshness of the food) We ordered the Pork Belly and the Chicken and they were amazing dishes, nice wine selection and a warm, friendly atmosphere. Will definitely be returning!

Excellent fantastic service and meals for our family of 5. Love the dogs in the bar area!!!

Lovely food, and fantastic service, as always. Did not disappoint.

We had a lovely meal on Sunday evening. Food was very tasty and service was friendly and efficient. We had the beef pie and fish pie, which were very good. The children's menu had a good choice and was good value.

An absolutely delicious meal for 3 of us, far exceeding our expectations, with friendly staff and homely atmosphere. The Lamb Henry in particular was incredible. Will certainly return next time we are in the area!

This is our third visit and every time is as good as the last. Food excellent, friendly staff and great service.

Some of our party enjoyed the food (fish special in particular) but other dishes not so great. Ham and chips was gammon (or some other grilled meat) and was dry and tough. Chips obvs cooked twice. Veg curry didn’t live up to the menu billing (low on spice, heat and no protein) and had to ask for the naan which was a cold shop-bought effort. Halloumi starter was dark brown and very over cooked. So, pricey for a poor meal. Nice space though and the staff were very helpful.

Lovely pub in Cartmel, cosy atmosphere, great service and great food.

Outstanding every time from the warm welcome as you enter to the service at the bar. Nice decor, amazing service and food. Highly recommended, five star all the way. It’s not very often nowadays where you can get homemade food served. Top notch bar staff, waitress and chef.

Lovely restaurant great atmosphere and food was amazing, would call again when in the area x

Good hearty pub food in a lovely country side very dog friendly pub in the pretty village of Brigsteers. As we were staying in the village it was nice to walk here. We had the fish and chips and the homity pie. Both were good and huge portions. Friendly waitress served us making us feel welcome.

Beautiful food and great service!

We always come here when we visit Keswick and once again we were not disappointed. The food was outstanding - so full of flavour. The service was great as well.

Wonderful food made from scratch.Always delicious,quick service and professional staff.The chef in this Italian restaurant is amazing.We are visiting the place for quite awhile so we totally recommend it.

We had two vegetarians in our group who ordered the Tofu Stirfry - it was inedible. We were on a walking holiday and had to eat though - I was one of the vegetarians and can honestly say I have never had such a bad meal... The garlic mushroom starter was ordered by a meat-eater and was 'okay'. Our son ordered the chicken nuggets and sadly had a vomiting episode an hour later though there may have been no connection. Service was very good and atmosphere lovely.
