Reviews in Cumbria and Lake District

Absolutely gorgeous food. Brilliant service. Was a lovely chilled lunch, looking forward to going back.

We had a lovely meal here for my husbands birthday. Couldn’t fault the food or the brilliant staff, we’ll be back very soon!

With its characterful early 17th century exterior, the Wheatsheaf is visually inviting and well worth visiting for a drink and meal. On a busy Friday evening we found service to be prompt, attentive and friendly, and the food - much of it local - very enjoyable.

What a beautiful meal, in pleasant surroundings with attentive staff. A little gem in the heart of Penrith. Just lovely.

Had a beautiful meal for my daughter, partner and grandchildren, made us feel very welcome. The food and service was exceptional. We book every year when we book a cottage in the area, needless to say we will be back.

My colleague and I specifically stopped in Carlisle overnight to enjoy this restaurant, after eating here once before. We enjoyed as much if not more this time round and will try to eat here anytime on our route. Thanks for another enjoyable experience!

We had popped in for a drink one afternoon when the chef was on his break We got talking and he told us about the gluten feee options.He certainly lived up to his word, amazing gluten free fish and chips ! The nicest I’ve ever had. They have a varied menu, something for everyone. Good selection of real ales and wines. The Penny Lane Sauvignon was really good.

Once again excellent service fantastic food 5 star recommendation

I’m writing to say yesterday we had a birthday meal celebration and the food was fantastic,great wine and beer too . We both really enjoyed our evening,wobbled back full and content… Well done and compliments to the chef and team.

Fab evening with friends - lovely fresh hot meal Great Service and Prices Will be back a fav go to x

Visited the Horse and Farrier in Dacre twice while on holiday. The food was exceptional, great portions and beautifully presented and cooked. Good choice of locally brewed ales and lager. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. Definitely worth a visit if in the area.

Another amazing last night meal for our holiday in Keswick, at the Pheasant Inn.Service is amazing and the food is superb. We have found the pre booking as been required,as the evening have been busy.

First time visit fantastic food, service and value for money portion size was great we will be back soon, cannot fault anything about the place

Visiting Carlisle for one night and we were lucky enough to find Mezzaluna for our evening meal. Nice atmosphere, very pleasant and friendly staff, and lovely food. I can highly recommend the chicken risotto, and my husband really enjoyed his baked bolognaise pasta. Rounded off by a delicious and simple affogato! Would definitely return on a future visit to Carlisle

I'm fortunate enough to have dined here twice in the last week. Once with a friend and once with a very large group . The service was excellent both times, with everyone in the large group also receiving the personal touch that the two of us did on our second visit. I cannot recommend it highly enough.

Good value and service
