A superb meal. Staff very friendly . Lovely clean surroundings . Food was perfect

Fabulous meal with excellent service. Thanks for a lovely evening.

Three of us enjoyed a meal at the Pheasant this week. We each chose something different from the menu (as it happened one meat, one fish and one veggie). Each of us was delighted with the quality (and quantity!) of the delicious home-cooked food. Three different members of staff attended to us, and each was welcoming and friendly. Then they were surprised that I left a tip! Can thoroughly recommend to others visiting Keswick.

This place never fails to provide outstanding service and fabulous food. We love going to this restaurant and would highly recommend you pay a visit. You will have s fantastic time and enjoy beautiful food.

Food wass delicious we had the Sunday night deal for Sunday dinner, bed and breakfast. The service was polite and attentive and no request were too much bother. The roast beef was cooked to perfection, gravy delicious and all the vegetables fresh and tasty. Especially good roast potatoes. The breakfast was hot, bacon and sausage again very tasty, poached egg perfectly cooked. My partner had to get away earlier than me and the chef even made him a delicious takeaway bacon sandwich before normal breakfast time was due. So thank you so much for that

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.

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.
