Reviews in Grasmere

Fortunately we booked a meal before arriving in Grasmere, and pleased I did because it was heavily booked during the week we stayed in Grasmere, in fact we wished we had booked another evening as well, but it was booked when we decided to have another meal there! The food selection was very good, and the food was excellent and very good value. The staff were super efficient, and the restaurant has a lovely ambiance. All in all, an excellent experience and we highly recommend this restaurant. Well done to all the staff.

My wife and myself always go to Lewis’s a couple of times on every visit we make to The Lakes which is normally twice each year. There is always a welcoming atmosphere and the staff are really friendly and polite. There is a good choice of locally sourced produce on the menu which is always high quality and well presented. Definitely worth a visit but make sure you book in advance !

The food and service was so good I’d recommend this place to anyone Excellent value for money and I’d advise that you book in advance

Booked here during our short break in Grasmere & weren’t disappointed! Food was tasty & service good. All staff were pleasant, but the young man had a great attitude & reminded us of one of our grandsons! As with most restaurants lately, the prices are a bit high, but I’d still recommend it.

We discovered Lewis Bistro inJuly 2020 when we stayed in Grasmere for first time. We have been back a number of times since. We love this restaurant. The food is fabulous and the atmosphere is relaxed. We always have a great night. The chicken dish is superb, as is the steak. We always finish with cheese board. Has never disappointed.

Excellent food and very quick service. Our first visit whilst staying in Grasmere and obviously a popular place. Would book again when next in the area. Staff friend attentive but not overly so.

Amazing. Everything from the atmosphere, all the staff and the food we couldn’t fault it. Highly recommended.

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit here. A lovely little gem of a restaurant in the heart of Grasmere. French onion soup for starter was fab. We both had the Cumbrian fillet for main and it was superb. My girlfriend had hers well done, no pink and after a while stopped using the steak knife provided and used the normal knife. It was still so soft and cut through so easily. I’ve been looking forward to a “good” steak for some time and this did not disappoint. Very tasty, great peppercorn sauce, I’d have preferred thick chips rather than fries but it was still a great meal. We shared a sticky toffee pudding to end the meal and again it was so good. When I’m back in Grasmere I’ll be coming back here. Ambience and service was great and the food superb.

Food was really nice. Just maybe leave the Chorizo of the Scallop dish. Everything else was really excellent and would recommend, Scoring for food is really harsh i.e. from a 5 to a 4 just for the Chorizo. Unfortunatel, but because the way the scoring works

We enjoyed our visit to Lewis's Bistro. The food was very good and well cooked, although the portion sizes were not overly generous, even for me and I am quite small. The Bakewell tart dessert was particularly delicious. The young man who served us was really friendly and we did not have to wait too long for anything. The atmosphere improved as the evening progressed and the tables filled up, as, unusually, it was quiet and not fully booked when we arrived . We did get talking to the couple on the next table! Our only 'negative' comment is that this is an expensive place to eat. We are fairly used to eating out at 'nice' restaurants in London and Oxford, and this was more expensive than many of them. However, we still have very positive feelings about the evening. Overall, a 'top end' dining experience.

Lovely meal with great service. Arrived earlier than planned and was accommodated without fuss.

We had an excellent meal at Lewis’s. The bistro had a lovely atmosphere and the staff were attentive and very friendly. The food was really good Would highly recommended it.

Excellent meal, very good service.

Lovely food , the young waiter was brilliant but the other staff were a bit unfriendly . I understand it's a hard job but we wouldnt want the return which is a shame as the food was lovely

Lovely cosy restaurant, with friendly and attentive staff. The food was great - we are both vegetarian and there were nice options. The Bakewell tart was amazing as a dessert and the cheese board huge! Would highly recommend.

spent the evening at this venue on 28th September First class, service, Food, venue . all very good, is it pricey you get what the pay for worth ever penny

Lovely food served in a good atmosphere by wonderful staff, we really enjoyed our food the rice pudding was amazing.

Another wonderful meal at this brilliant little bistro. Service is polite, friendly and attentive. Food is to die for, especially the pork belly, melts in your mouth with an abundance of flavour. This was our fourth visit and can't wait to return on our next trip to Grasmere.
