We booked Grants for the 16th September on our way back home from Ireland. Everything about the meal was brilliant. The food (pigeon & pork, & the sticky toffee pudding & cheese) was beautifully cooked & presented & the service was excellent. It was lovely to be able to talk to each other without competing against surrounding noise. Highly recommended.
Grants Of Castlegate – PenrithOur stay in Grasmere included a meal out,every night.Lewis`s was superb and not expensive for the quality of food we had.The Restaurant was lively,but not full,but the Staff were very good and were good for a laugh!Itwas nice to have a short walk to and from our Hotel,other places needed a bus/car trip.Definitely the best place to eat in Grasmere,in our opinion.Highly recommended.
Lewis’s Bistro – GrasmereDelicious food and a lovely, relaxed atmosphere. Faultless service. Perfect.
La Mezzaluna – CarlisleGood food, good service. Highly recommended. A bit noisy when we went, but it was a Saturday early evening, so a few parties were dining before hitting the town. Can't fault the food or the service. We'll be back soon.
La Mezzaluna – CarlisleIt just gets better every time we go
Grants Of Castlegate – PenrithBest vegan restaurant we’ve ever been to. Everything about it is wonderful. We will definitely return when we can and I would recommend it to anyone, vegan or not.
Plant by Kat’s Kitchen – KeswickFantastic value really good food my favourite restaurant in Carlisle now we have only lived here a few months but so pleased we found this restaurant
La Mezzaluna – CarlisleHad a meal on Friday night. I had the salt and pepper prawns, which were absolutely amazing, I would go so far to say best prawn starter I ever had. Then the vegetarian curry, which was good but didn't blow me away, hubby had scallops for starters which he said was good and the pork belly which he said was superb. Would highly recommend this place.
Lewis’s Bistro – GrasmereIt’s so good to be able to go to a vegan restaurant without worrying about what you eating. Excellent food amongst kindred spirit. Very nice
Plant by Kat’s Kitchen – KeswickExcellent Sunday lunch and service. Its been a favourite of ours for many years. X
Pheasant Inn – KeswickVisited Saturday 17/9/22 Like many places in Keswick the Pheasant are seriously understaffed, we have eaten there many times but our latest visit fell short of there usual high standards, I hope they are able to remedy there problems soon, before it has an irreversible effect on trade
Pheasant Inn – KeswickWent last night for the second time. Great atmosphere. Great service. Great food . Great wine . Great night . Thanks
Grants Of Castlegate – PenrithWe've been coming to The Pheasant for 4 years on our trips to the Lakes. It's great food, lovely little pub and well worth a visit - book ahead and you'll be rewarded with a great menu and some superb food. Every time we visit Keswick we will eat there at least a couple of times.
Pheasant Inn – KeswickFantastic Sunday lunch in a traditional pub.
Pheasant Inn – KeswickGreat choice for local fare with the locals. This inn is just outside of the main tourist area of Keswick. We stayed at the fantastic Allerdale House on Eskin Street which would have been a 20 minute walk. We drove as on street parking is more than ample. My wife had the beef tips stew special with veg. I had the 21 day dry aged ribeye steak. Both the stew and the steak were cooked and flavored to perfection. This is an old inn and while they can accommodate a good number of people space is tight and reservations are a must. The menu is very diverse and there is something for everyone. The staff is friendly and the service is attentive without being over bearing. Save room for one of their incredible desserts
Pheasant Inn – KeswickWe come to the Lake District every April and September. Always have a meal at Lewis’s. Without fail. The food is superb service excellent. Would recommend anyone to try it out.
Lewis’s Bistro – GrasmereHad to book but well worth the wait. Lovely food and friendly, efficient staff. So nice to have some decent choices as a vegetarian instead of the usual standard offerings
