Reviews in Cumbria and Lake District

We never visit the Lake District without booking a meal at the Pheasant Inn. The staff are great, really friendly and helpful. The ambiance is excellent, really old world charm. We have had various choices from the venue on past visits and never been disappointed, this time it was steak for me and gammon for my wife. The food is delicious and plentiful, we don't usually have a starter because we can't resist the great desserts. All in all well worth a visit if you are in that area.

Great food, good service & no heating, we were freezing! We have been visiting Grasmere for over forty years & the cost of dining just keeps rising. Today we are now paying above average prices for just an appetiser never mind the main course & the owners don't even heat their restaurant; am I missing something?

Another wonderful meal with fantastic service at Adrianos, everyone is so lovely and helpful, and the food is brilliant.

Excellent restaurant with excellent staff. We were a party of nine and we were catered for with top quality service and delicious food!

Absolutely delicious food and a lovely warm welcome. Can’t recommend the homemade pies highly enough .

Delicious food. Lovely room. Welcoming staff. Excellent breakfast. Great value.

Wonderful food and service last night and the Salmon was lovely , my husband had a Fillet steak and again cooked just the way he likes it - would highly recommend .

Excellent food

I am on a gluten free diet and had a Sunday roast. ALL the trimmings even a home make yorkshire pudding. It was wonderful and I had no reactions. They have lots of choices for gluten free on the menu even deserts which I would have had if hadn’t been so full. Will certainly eat here again when visiting the area.

Great local freshly cooked food. Great atmosphere and service

Great welcome - great food and friendly service. Good value for the price.

My wife and I had Sunday lunch the food and service were excellent, that good we are going again in the evening in couple of days. Thank you

Called in for a Sunday lunch on our way home from our caravan. I was a bit earlier than the time I'd booked, but I phoned them and they said they could fix us up with an earlier table. We had the roasted beef Sunday lunch which was fabulous, so tasty. We then had sticky toffee pudding, which was also lovely. I addition it's has a lovely atmosphere and pleasant helpful staff. I'd definitely recommend this place for a meal. We have been here many times before and they have never let us down.

Unfortunately we had a disappointing experience. We got seated straight away and got drinks and the starter quickly. However I think we got forgotten as the mains came out an hour and 20 mins from when we arrived. The food was luke warm, but we were so hungry by then we just ate it. No one came to ask if the food was ok once it finally came, way after everyone else in the vicinity got theirs. One table also left, had a new sitting who ate and also left before we got ours! No one came to ask if we wanted more drinks either which we had finished about an hour before the mains arrived. I only chased once but we hate making a fuss. I did say we weren't too happy when I went to pay and would have felt better of we had been offered some money off but no offer as made. It was my husband's 40th treat birthday meal, the only one we had all weekend, all the way from the Midlands so doubly disappointed. Ended up buying puddings from a garage as we were too annoyed to stay. Everyone else around us seemed to be enjoying themselves and the pub itself is lovely so I guess we were just unlucky this time

Amazing food and fantastic friendly staff. Could just have been a bit warmer in the area we were in

Really lovely restaurant, great atmosphere and excellent service. The food was delicious, beautifully cooked and presented. Highly recommended!

This was our first visit to the Queens Head as we were visiting the area for a holiday. I booked a table and made mention it was my wife's birthday. We were warmly welcomed and the team had decorated the table with a banner and balloons as a birthday treat. The food was good and the atmosphere comfortable with a lovely open fire blazing. Service was very friendly but slow Overall an excellent visit and will go again

The food was outstanding and the atmosphere was lively. The service was excellent and all staff where professional and mzde the evenjbg special
