Reviews in Cumbria and Lake District

Absolutely amazing food with plenty of choice , warm and welcoming staff and lovely atmosphere

We had a great evening at Grants of Castlegate. The food was delicious and well prepared. The staff are welcoming and attentive and the atmosphere is nice. We will be back.

Tremendous meal with friendly service in a relaxing environment. A real great evening out.

Relaxed atmosphere. Food was great. Menu is limited but what we ate was absolutely delicious Staff seemed overly busy so struggled to check in for our reservation. The girl serving at the bar was border line disinterested. Think you either need more staff or more training so greeting is warmer.

Amazing Amazing food as always

Amazing food and a great place . Really friendly staff.

Our holiday to the lakes wouldn't be the same without a couple of visits to this outstanding place,food excellent has always,service outstanding, staff always run of their feet but always have time for you ,a must visit

Wonderful pub with great service and lovely food. Price was reasonable for proper home cooked food. We wouldn’t hesitate to go back again.

Lovely food, wine and service, definitely value for money. I would highly recommend and I plan to return as it was a lovely meal.

Food was tasty, and you get a lot for your money. Possibly the best onion rings ever. Drinks were good value too.

I was staying in Applethwaite all last week, enjoying beautiful walks and climbs each day and decided that for three consecutive evenings, I would dine at the Pheasant Inn. It was my first time eating there and I was not disappointed in any way. The food was brilliant...staff very friendly, helpful and attentive.....and my three visits made the perfect end to my days of fell walking. Each meal I tried off the menu I would happily order again and although I didn't have enough room left after my main for a dessert, a cheeky glance at the puddings heading out to other customers confirmed that these were of a really high standard too. So thank you Pheasant Inn and I hope to dine with you again when I visit Keswick next time. Very memorable for all the right reasons....would highly recommend a visit!

The food was exceptional and the service was very welcoming and thorough

Absolutely fantastic. Thoroughly recommend to anyone staying in the Lake District you won’t be disappointed.

We went for a mid-afternoon meal - the food was delicious, the ambience was great, and the service was just right. An easy pick for somewhere nice to eat - especially if you love Italian food!

We had evening meal for 6 in the restaurant. We enjoyed the generous portions and oodles of comfort - disappointed only that none of us could make it to the jam roly poly.

Was a shame the Venison Burbrigon was unavailable as that was something I had seen on the online menu and was looking forward to. However,what we eventually had was excellent as was the service. This is an excellent pub and is thoroughly recommended.

This pub is a hidden gem in a truly beautiful part of the Lake District. The food, beer, welcome and service are all perfect. A friendly and comfortable pub, welcoming locals and people further afield, like us, the Farmers Arms deserves to be well known. Go on a Thursday night for brilliant pizzas and amazing home made cakes!

The team were so accommodating when half our party of 18 were stuck in the A590 traffic. Food was great, thank you!
