Reviews in Cumbria and Lake District

Came here for our second visit of the week and the food was excellent as always but the personal touch just wasn’t there tonight, they were busy but the old guy was abrupt whenever we tried to get his attention and was more interested in wiping tables than serving us and we got asked to turn off our babies sleep aid in his pram by a younger male but the pub was that noisy anyway you couldn’t hear it,but funnily enough he never asked the owners of the barking dogs to quieten them down,next time we will come in without the sleeping aid and our baby will cry and scream for 10-15 minutes as we try and get him to sleep and I am sure your customers will be happy with that. All I will say is thank god for Fred and your wonderful staff on Tuesday who were excellent and made us realise how easy poor staff can spoil an occasion

Another lovely meal at sage and vine. Great friendly and attentive service. One of my favourite places in Carlisle.

Have visited for lunch several times over the last few years when holidaying in the area and it never disappoints! Lovely bar and dining area, welcoming friendly staff and great food and service. Will certainly pay another visit next time we’re in the area.

Warm atmosphere and fire and welcomed our two well behaved dogs. Staff were attentive. Our meals were 1 lamb, 2 Cumberland sausage- all delicious, I had chicken ham and leek pie - it was thin consisting mainly pastry and a few small bits of meat- poor. Beer range was disappointing.

Fantastic food and amazing staff so lovely and great service! Restaurant was decorated beautifully. Celebrated Grandson’s 18th birthday Friday. Thank you all you made it so special.

Lovely food & excellent service

Excellent service, friendly staff, delious food. Will definitely be booking again

We had a lovely meal on Saturday evening. This is a traditional, cosy, country pub. The service was great, the staff were friendly and keen to help even though it was busy. The food was delicious, lots of choice for vegetarians. We will definitely be returning.

Beautiful. We had the chefs specials, tuna dish and a chicken wrapped over Cumberland sausage. Superb. Service was 10/10 as always. Completely faultless so thank you for a lovely Saturday evening. We will be back.

Pleasant pub serving a good choice of tasty dishes and good beer. Our only reservation was that portion sizes are rather small!

Been here couple years ago and the food was incredible - brought the whole family over this weekend and unfortunately the food was very disappointing. The food came out luke warm, tasteless and not a thrilling menu to begin with. We ordered 6 pints on arrival, the food came out and we ordered another 6 pints. These drinks had not arrived by the time we finished our meals, at which point we didn’t want to stay any longer due to disappointing food and a lack of atmosphere and warmth in the pub.

Always enjoy an evening at Adriano’s. Staff are so friendly, service is excellent and food is delicious. Already booked to go back.

We visit most times we are in the Lake District, and our most recent visit did not disappoint! We tried the 3 courses for £33 deal, and were both blown away by our starter and mains in particular - amazing combinations of flavours - and with a couple of very tasty pints to boot it provided a great reward for having walked over from Stainton. Look forward to seeing what you have on offer in the New Year when we're next back.

Great restaurant love the cheese boards, fab wine! Favourite place at the lakes?

We came to the bistro for dinner on the last night of our holiday in Grasmere and we weren’t disappointed. The staff were friendly and welcoming and the food was absolutely delicious. We will definitely be visiting again on our next trip to the lakes. Thank you.

Good food, friendly staff and a good atmosphere with a warm welcome. Food is cooked from scratch on the premises and it shows - good quality, delicious fair.

Gorgeous food last night- good meat free options- we had mushroom wellington, beetroot bourgingon and pheasant , all excellent. Friendly quick service- will definitely be back- highly recommended x
