Reviews in Cumbria and Lake District

Great food, quick, friendly service and fantastic value

Lovely restaurant with good atmosphere and food with attentive staff who are very visible and on hand . Starters of tempura veg and scallops very good . Husband had lamb which was excellent . I had sea bass which I felt was overcooked for my liking. For me it all very rushed and maybe something to do with two sittings each evening. We had only just started to enjoy our drinks when the starters arrived . These plates were cleared as soon as finished and mains served — me personally I like a gap between courses to digest my food. Immediatley offered dessert when this was finished . Managed to get a breather at this point as indicated needed a rest. Apart from this it was a pleasant experience and if returning would indicate my preference for a more relaxed service

Food was delicious I had the pheasant which was lovely. The service was excellent and waiters very funny. Will definitely return and recommend you to our friends

This is a brilliant place and definitely worth checking out. The food was a 10/10 and they had great veggie options.

Lovely food and service excellent definitely recommend

Wonderful place, very friendly and excellent service. Scrumptious food and drink. We will definitely be back. Amazing experience. First class.

The best place to eat in Keswick by far. All main meals were delicious, as were the desserts. The staff were fab & all in all, a great relaxed evening out with top rate food.

We love this little gem of a restaurant. From the minute you walk in you feel welcome. The place has a warm and comforting feel to it. Cosy lighting. It has a great feel to the place. Staff are so friendly and attentive. The place is spotless and the staff are constantly keeping it like this. I struggle to choose what to have as I could try everything on the menu. There’s a great choice to every course, which is why I try something different every time I go. The food is so traditional, extremely tasty, I love the different sauces and pasta, so much choice. I had broccoli in my pasta which was fresh, bright green and still firm, which to me is perfect, not soggy! My panna cotta was perfection, lovely and wobbly and tasted amazing with the caramel flavour. I loved the Merlot too. It was very easy to drink, smooth and fruity, and a really decent price. I love this restaurant, always a treat. A must try if you haven’t been.

Have been to the Pheasant many times over the last 10 years or so. Always enjoyed the food, atmosphere, attentiveness and friendliness of the staff. The perfect finish to a good day on the hills. A traditional cosy friendly pub that lives up to it's reputation.

Traditional pub with great food and great service. Will definitely be back next time we are in Keswick.

4 of us dined and everyone of us thoroughly enjoyed our meal. My brother who is notoriously critical passed his compliments on to the chef for the best chicken dish he has eaten.

Traditional homely pub which has long served wholesome pub favourites. There aren’t enough of these around now! Portions are generous and all meals home cooked, not overly fancy just good quality tasty food at reasonable prices. Staff are friendly and dogs are very welcome.

Grasmere's hidden gem , wonderful food , good value , nice wines .. don't tell everyone or we won't be able to book next time .. but it's a rare treat ..you won't be disappointed...

Came here for a date night for my boyfriend’s birthday and we had an amazing night, incredible service, amazing food and 10/10 overall from the both of us! :)

We love to eat here when we visit Keswick. It’s a cosy pub with very friendly and accommodating staff. The menu is much more interesting than most pubs and the food is a reasonable price. We visited on a Sunday: I had Lamb Henry and it was delicious but the Sunday roast also looked amazing and a neighbouring customer said she had thoroughly enjoyed it. We will be back.

Great food and atmosphere. Lovely old pub in a great setting. Short walk from the centre of Keswick

Very pleasant pub and very busy and though booked in at 5.30 didn't get our meal til 6 35....food very good but mine was not hot enough but did not mention at time as was too hungry to wait
