Booked a meal, turned up early bang on opening time, but we were able to go straight to our table. Within minutes almost every table was occupied. There was a good variety of food on the menu. My wife opted for fish and I had balsamic beef stew. Both dishes were reasonably priced, and very enjoyable. Service was excellent. We would definitely go back again.
Pheasant Inn – KeswickBeautiful food! Would highly recommend
Pheasant Inn – Keswickwonderful food and service, we had a lovely night and will return.
Grants Of Castlegate – PenrithThe Pheasant is our go to pub to take friends and family for a lovely meal. The service is always warm and welcoming and the food is great, with very generous portions.
Pheasant Inn – KeswickDisappointing, I've been going to the pheasant for years and this visit was totally out of character. We initially ordered starters and mains, within a few minutes the mains arrived, I reminded the staff we had ordered starters, which went down like a lead balloon ! We were told that the mains were ready and would spoil if the brought out the starters, eventually the owner came to offer us free deserts or a round of drinks, very disappointing. She refused to prepare new mains to allow us to have the starters and actually admitted that the starters had never been prepared. In the end we had to just forget the starters. The quality of the mains once they arrived was poor with a steak pie which should have steak pieced being 50/50 with mince. All in all a very poor show.
Pheasant Inn – KeswickGreat service - very polite and lovely. Really beautifully decorated with authentic atmosphere. Will return for the £99 deal for Sunday/Monday stay.
The Wheatsheaf at Beetham – MilnthorpeWe have enjoyed this pub when visiting the Lakes over the years. We were not disappointed with the food or indeed the service - the young female waitresses all worked hard and efficiently- smiling helpful and running most of the time too! However we felt the tables in the bar area were somewhat close together- not so much from a post covid view but simply because conversations were inhibited due to closeness of fellow diners.
Pheasant Inn – KeswickA lovely Sunday dinner,excellent food and presentation,staff were really nice and friendly,all set in a relaxing atmosphere, will definately return as we are quite local,many thanks
The Wheatsheaf at Beetham – MilnthorpeExcellent Sunday Roast!!! Family of 6 all very happy with their choices from the Nut Roast to Roast Beef. Will be back again soon. Thank you
The Wheatsheaf at Beetham – MilnthorpeDuring our trip to Ambleside we happened upon Lewis’s Bistro. What a find! Fantastic food. We had the steak and the lamb, however DO NOT MISS the STICKY TOFFEE PUDDING. Our server was a local lad with an hysterical, dry sense of humor and a cheeky smile. The entire experience was top notch. Treat yourself!!!!
Lewis’s Bistro – GrasmereFood was good and well presented. Service was very efficient possibly slightly too much as main course came out almost as soon as starter was cleared. Meals on pricey side. Billed for an extra glass of wine, amended when pointed out, but shouldn't really have happened as on two of us and only 4 drinks consumed.
Lewis’s Bistro – GrasmereWonderful little bistro that allows dogs. A real treat as we normally have to eat in pubs. The food was divine and the service was excellent. When they found out we'd just got engaged they discounted our bill. A really lovely gesture as they didn't have to do that. Would definitely return when we're next in Grasmere.
Lewis’s Bistro – GrasmereGreat food and service as always and met our request for space by the table for a pushchair. Nothing was too much trouble thank you and we will see you again later this year. Highly recommended 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
