Excellent food. Friends eating here too on the same evening like us could not praise the food and restaurant highly enough. Excellent for gluten free options with good attention to detail and care taken. Great tasting food and if we were local would visit regularly
La Mezzaluna – CarlisleLovely pub with good food and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Easy online booking system. Highly recommended.
The Wheatsheaf at Beetham – MilnthorpeCozy little restaurant, the food is hearty and high quality. Lovely little gem in grasmere
Lewis’s Bistro – GrasmereWe had an excellent meal. Delicious food. The banana wrapped in pancake dessert was amazing. Shame we live 300 miles away - I’d certainly go often if we were local!
La Mezzaluna – CarlisleAn amazing building. Some parts dating back to the 1600s and other areas added during the Victorian era. We have called in for drinks many times when we have been walking in the area, but this was the first time we have had a meal there. We will definitely be eating there again! Our food was really lovely and the staff, very pleasant and helpful. Thank you for a great evening.
Glen Rothay Hotel and Badger Bar – RydalGreat food, great service and lovely ambiance. So good we went back the following evening.

Pheasant Inn – KeswickCalled in for a meal on Wednesday evening and enjoyed it so much we booked again for the following night .Very nice atmosphere and very pleasant staff we would recommend this place
Hope and Anchor – Grange-over-SandsAn excellent evening for our annual family reunion meal
Lewis’s Bistro – GrasmereWe had 2 meals in grassmere at Lewis’s and from start to finish the Service and food was excellent, would recommend to anybody to have a really great evening.
Lewis’s Bistro – GrasmereEasy to book a table for an evening meal for two people. I had rag pudding, a type of steak suet pudding, and my wife had liver and bacon, both of which were properly cooked and very tasty. We got our food within twenty minutes even though there were four tables before us. Great service, not overly attentive.
Hope and Anchor – Grange-over-SandsWe enjoyed a lovely evening meal at Lewis's. The staff were very attentive, the choice difficult to choose from and the quality of food excellent. Would highly recommend.
Lewis’s Bistro – GrasmereExcellent meal with attentive service . The only negative was the cheese and leek gratin which was very runny and basically inedible. This was mentioned after service and on payment of the account . They were apologetic but no offer of a discount in full for the course or part thereof .
Lewis’s Bistro – GrasmereMy stir fry was very salty. My wife’s veggie wellington was delicious - if anything there was too much on the plate. Bailey’s cheesecake was lovely. Odd building - lots of disjointed areas. Eating spaces could do with some music so that you don’t hear everyone else’s chat. Felt a bit disorganised when we arrived even though we’d booked.
Glen Rothay Hotel and Badger Bar – RydalAfter a lovely day in Keswick - pencil museum included - we had an early bite at the Pheasant Inn. The beer was lovely and very welcome on a hot day and the food - one meat and two veggie - was great. The staff managed to step around and over our dog (who had decided the best place to be was in the middle of the slate floor) and everything was fresh and filling. And the beer was great.
