Reviews in Cumbria and Lake District

We had an absolutely wonderful evening at Lewis’s last night. The menu has wonderful variety with some great vegetarian, vegan and gluten free options too. Don’t worry, it’s not all veggie! The meat options are stunning! The kids menu is perfect for little ones and the staff are pleasant and professional. We were greeted promptly and all the food was absolutely delicious. It is clear that much thought and passion had gone into making this tiny gem one of the area’s loveliest restaurants. We can’t wait to return!

Food was amazing! The portions were such good value for money, cocktails were super tasty and the staff were so friendly and attentive!

Wonderful Evening from the moment we walked through the door, Service with a smile Food was excellent Wine choice superb Would certainly recommend Lewis Bistro to any one visiting Grasmere but book early

Great food, great service and a lovely evening. Have visited previously and wouldn’t hesitate to book again.

The afternoon tea was superb and the service was very good. Hopefully we will be looking forward to a return visit again as we enjoyed the afternoon visit very much

Excellent food,Excellent service,friendly staff,staying locally,wouldn’t hesitate to book again.

We had a 4 day stay at Augill Castle. On the first day we had afternoon tea which was just the right amount. I had the sweet version and my husband the savoury. On the subsequent 3 days we ate in the Music Room. The staff were very friendly and the food was excellent. Beautifully presented and great value. I particularly liked the fact that much of the food was locally sourced and supported the local economy. Can't wait to visit again.

Fab place! Reached out to me to help make mum's surprise dinner special, did a great job in getting it all prepared, then great service on the night and delicious food and drinks - definitely going to go back. Thanks!

Lovely warm welcome to this amazing place. Really comfy room with sofas and armchairs, interesting pictures and information about the house on the walls. Tea was excellent - lovely sandwiches on very fresh bread, gorgeous cake, a mousse, shortbread and scones. We loved the crockery too. Our voucher also entitled us to a glass of very nice fizz - just enough to feel special without making me concerned for the drive home!! Joined for a whle by Maisie the dog, who just lay down and didn't bother us one bit, just added to the homely atmosphere. Thank you

Two recent visits to La Mezzaluna and on both occasions the food, atmosphere and service were very good. I particularly enjoyed the Prosciutto E Rughetta and the Pollo Cavour and my wife said the mint choc chip ice cream was one of the best she'd ever had. Sensible prices and close to the railway station and hotels in and around Botchergate. Booking recommended.

What a wonderful meal which was complimented by the attentive and relaxed service provided by the chef/patron and his wonderful staff. What a pleasure to also eat outside!! We are frequent visitors to the lakes and will certainly be going back to Lewis’s.

Fantastic meal! Delicious and good portion size. The staff are friendly and attentive, couldn’t wish for a better place for a meal.

Lovely bistro. Great food and helpful staff. Very accommodating to a family with young children.

Excellent meal and service. Lovely restaurant and worth a visit
