The service was excellent from the minute we entered the pub. The guys were super attentive and very friendly. My wife had the Beef Pie which she said was excellent. I had the Fish Pie, which was packed with Salmon, Smoked Fish and Mussels. It also had lots of mash and topped with melted cheese. The only negative for me, was it was a little dry and could have done with having more sauce within the pie.

Excellent meal, good portions and good value for money. Previously wasn't keen on the real ales offered, but this time the selection was great and included old peculiar. Will definitely go back again.

A visit to this restaurant is an absolute must. The menu is great with a diverse range of sharing platters, tapas and pizzas. The food was delicious and the staff warm and friendly. Sage & Vine has a cosy atmosphere, and me and my husband truly had a wonderful time.

Visited on a recommendation of a friend. Wholesome food was great and good value with the service being very respectful and courteous. It’s a fabulous hub for the locals, who all gave us a warm and friendly welcome even tho we didn’t know them. We will be back for sure.

Fabulous restaurant. We were really disappointed when it closed and thrilled when it re-opened. We are always welcomed as if part of a big family, service is impeccable, the atmosphere lovely (even on a quiet lunchtime) and the food is simply delicious. Our fussy 10 year old loves it and can polish off most of a full size garlic bread and all of his pizza! Just go!

Adriano’s Italian Restaurant – Carlisle

We visited for Sunday lunch and really disappointed. Food was cold and waited over 90mins for it to arrive. Staff were inattentive and ignored people. Quality of food not great and so wouldn’t recommend.

Unfortunately our experience yesterday (2nd November 2025) wasn't our best. We've been coming to this restaurant for over 10 years, when we visit Keswick. The waiting time was very long, as I think our order got lost as we were witnessing meals coming out to people who had sat down way after ourselves. Eventually we had to ask where our meal was, and when it did arrive one meal was not what we had ordered, so I said just leave it and I'll have the beef. The beef was inedible, couldn't cut or chew it. So Unfortunately we had to complain and go home hungry. So disappointed as this has always been one of our favourite restaurants when we come to Keswick. We have booked for midweek on our stay and we shall honour this booking and hopefully our review will change...

Always a lovely meal at The Hope and Anchor. Sunday lunch is the best and always a great service.

Hope and Anchor – Grange-over-Sands

Paul Johnson

Excellent atmosphere with friendly, humorous and courteous staff. Quality of food is excellent with very generous portions. It serves pub food as it should be unlike many of the other pubs in Keswick which can be overpriced and mediocre!
