What a wonderful end to a walk around Elterwater and Little Langdale. The seating out front here is a real suntrap and once you’ve managed to snag yourself a table, it’s really quite difficult to tear yourself away. Just had a snack and a couple of pints of lovely Jennings real ale whilst sat soaking up the spring sunshine. I can’t imagine there are too many places better to eat al fresco in the entire Lake District.
Britannia Inn – AmblesideHello Preston! (Dave Tierney)I was pleased to read your kind comments, look me up on facebook!(I visited this restaurant many many times :)CiaoGiuseppe Carmine (former Chef at Rastellis)
Rastellis Pizzeria – WindermereMy wife and I with a famliy friend visited Keswick for a couple of days and were initially guided to Luca's by our holiday site. The first visit was really so excellent with friendly staff and delightful food that we returned the follwing night for a repeat experience, Both were oustanding in the quality of food and service - however more than twice a week would not do my waistline any favours. We look forward to a return next year
Luca’s Ristorante – KeswickBeswick's is a lovely traditional French/British restaurant with good attention to detail. a dying breed in today's climate. Very comfortable welcoming atmosphere the owner is an excellent host! Our food was delightful steak cooked to perfection and my starter of Trout was delicious. Beswicks has an excellent wine list and our Burgundy didn't disappoint. A lovely quirky restaurant well worth a visit.
Beswicks Restaurant – Broughton-in-FurnessLove this place! child friendly, big portions, great decor and friendly service. The children's portion sizes would suit and adult! The food is fresh and well cooked and the waiting staff helpful and friendly. Lovely
Swan Hotel – WindermereBrought my parents here, who were visiting from Canada and we all had a wonderful evening. A delicious meal, well presented with a wonderful combination of flavours and excellent service. Thank you all.
Cottage in the Wood – KeswickJolly good food in pleasant surroundings. friendly staff and a wide range of drinks and ales at reasonable prices. Also the pub was obviously well cared for as the tables were kept clear and the pub was a credit to the management and staff. Well done!.
The Miles Thomson – Wetherspoons – KendalGreat little cafe. Good food, lovely atmosphere. Excellent lasagne, soup and gorgeous icecream. Child friendly but busy! Fair prices too. We will return.
Bluebird Cafe – ConistonWe stayed at the hotel the night before my sons wedding, the staff could not have been more helpful, they even supplied a room for the Bride to change into her gown, The food was delicious, and the accomodation was great. Non of us could find a negative thing to say. Thank you again for making a special weekend even better.
Pinegrove Hotel – CarlisleNow in my top 5 favourite pubs! Reasons; 1. Rather than a Menu they have "Beer Blotters". 2. Brew their own awesome real ale. 3. It's quirky and privately owned. 4. Great pies. 5. When the landlady was asked for 2 halves of lager to accompany the 2 real ales, she replied "we dont serve that rubbish in here, we are a real pub". 6. Great views of Black Combe. 7. I can walk there from my new house. That is all.....
The Prince of Wales – Broughton-in-FurnessAs the name suggests this Cafe is in a great spot in Broughton square. Their USP seems to be big hearty portions and friendly service. Nothing hip or artisan here but thats why we like it!
Square Cafe – Broughton-in-FurnessOK, the range of Chinese food I can eat is limited to 8-12 items on most menus, however I have eaten in Chinese restuarants in China, Hong Kong, across Europe
Golden Mountain – WindermereWe love the Newfield Inn!! It's a great little pub, good honest food (the lasagna is gorgeous) a really nice atmosphere and a warm cosy fire. If you like walking this is the pub to relax in with a pint afterwards.It's our new regular.
Newfield Inn – Broughton-in-FurnessGreat food service and attention to detail and value for money.
Brambles Cafe – AmblesideLove this place. Bought lots of foodie goodies to take home and my son and I enjoyed our lunch there too.
Low Sizergh Barn – KendalReally enjoyed our Garlic Chilli Chicken and Jalfrezi. Service was very friendly. Waiters seemed to know all their regulars and shook hands and had banter with most of them. Lots of complimentary drinks flying about too. Will return.
Naaz Indian Cuisine – UlverstonWell it was 3rd time lucky having tried to book twice before while in on visits to Keswick........and now I know why. The food was outstanding...locally sourced, fresh and beautifully presented with great attention to detail. All this is underpinned by the attentive and friendly service provided by staff from the moment you enquire about a booking until you reluctantly leave this hidden gem.
Cottage in the Wood – KeswickGreat family pub - well recommended. Good food and beer at reasonable prices. Sky Sports and lovely beer garden for the kids. Great place.
