Reviews in Keswick

Booked a meal at the pheasant June the food was great wine lovely and the staff were really helpful well worth a visit

Our annual visit to Keswick and we always have at least 2 meals at the Pheasant and always book well in advance. On the Saturday night it was incredibly busy and there was quite a wait for food but it was certainly worth waiting for. The Venison Bourguignon was great as was my wife's vegetarian option. On Wednesday we both had Lamb Henry with chips rather than mash. Another great meal. Suberb chips and vegetables and on both occasions neither of us could manage a dessert. Staff were very friendly, especially the man who was waiting on and sorted out a table for a couple with a baby and offered to help them carry out their own highchair after their meal. Also liked that they sent confirmation email after I booked online and I also got a reminder of the booking the day before. Best meals of our holiday. All in all, faultless. Thank you. See you next year Pheasant.

Reviews about the beef pie were right. Great meals and deserts and it felt like we had a really good dining experience. Will be sure to return next holiday.

Great pub, relaxing atmosphere. Very friendly and helpful people. Lovely food and very helpful with gluten free requirements, thank you very much.

The staff were wonderful. We arrived from out of town an hour early and they made us welcome and found space for us. The lunch was plentiful and excellent. The variety on the plate was unexpected and all fabulous. Highly recommend.

Sunday lunch was just brilliant.

Great food superb service. All staff were very helpful and curtious. Will definitely be back. Thank you

Lovely food and excellent service. Will definitely come again. Made to feel very welcome.

Excuse me, just wrote a review but did not rate the place in my last review, here you go:...

4 of us visited after a long hot hike up Helvellyn, great food and friendly service, staff even had time to show a sense of humour after what must have been a long sweltering shift. Will be back!!

After lots of research and looking at reviews we chose the Pheasant Inn for my partners 40th birthday dinner, I booked a table for 3 people. I pre booked weeks in advance and paid for the reservation, I mentioned on the reservation it was a big birthday. On arrival it was clearly very busy so I appreciate the staff were doing the best they could. However we were greeted with a very frosty reception, we felt rushed throughout the meal, even though we didn't dally with our ordering or eating. We weren't offered the dessert menu as it was clear they wanted us to move on. When we approached the front to pay, the lady who had been serving us asked us if we had arrived for our booking, as she didn't recognise us. The food was nice but overall very disappointed that we chose this pub for a 40th.

Excellent food, attentive staff. One of the best fish pies my wife says she’s ever had. My steak pie was delicious, only criticism is there was not enough veg between 2. Would definitely visit again.

Lovely old pub Food and service very good (although they had ran out of their signature fish pie !) Portions are large

Lovely outdoor area upstairs, staff were very friendly, polite and helpful. Service was good. The food was delicious, everything we ordered was very good indeed, and the prices were very reasonable. The only down side was that the tables were physically very small, close together and we were quite cramped, my chair was not very comfortable. Other than that, an excellent choice with highly recommended food and staff.

Wow!!! this was our first visit to the Pheasant Inn, the food was beautiful, the service was amazing and the pub was clean and so friendly and welcoming, every single member of staff were kind and helpful. I had the best steak I have had in years and they were very careful to suitably cater to our gluten free requirements. Fantastic service even though they were also incredibly busy, thank you so much!! 100% recommend!

Food and service was excellent, all served in a lovely traditional pub. Loads of food with every order, struggled to finish everything

Busy pub but all the staff were friendly and attentive. Ordered the chefs special, venison which was huge and delicious. Really reasonably priced too. Will definitely be back next time we're in keswick. Be sure to book well in advance.

Have been going to the Pheasant for 15 years..always spot on,never disappointed,always 1st class. Roll on my next visit.
