Reviews in Kirkby Lonsdale

Visited Saturday evening for the first time. What a lovely Restaurant, super atmosphere, very welcoming with attentive staff. The food was stunning, flavoursome and plentiful. We will certainly be returning! Thank you for a most relaxing evening.

Delicious food which was well presented by efficient staff. Good value for money. After having a starter and main course no one had room for a dessert.

The food at Lunesdale is strange. For some inexplicable reason there's an almost complete absence of sauce or Gravy and the veggies are tiny portions. So after eating my 2 starters with Chips with truffle and Parmesan I was quite disappointed because tiny quantities of intense flavours didn't resolve into a super lunch. The main courses are VERY EXPENSIVE so the appetizers or starters are the way to go. pity that the lunch wasn't properly balanced in flavour or accompaniments.

Enjoyed our lunch especially the cod goujons and seafood chowder some of main courses a little large with pasta/ rice. though the lunch special mussels not so and also 2 mussels closed also not keen on the skin on fries -service was good.m

Excellent meal, professional , attentive service , great ambience . Would thoroughly recommend .

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our dinner at The Lunesdale Arms. Excellent food, very attentive, friendly staff and a warm, comfortable environment.

We enjoyed our meal. My husband had the Spanish hash which he enjoyed. The kitchen very kindly made me a prawn cocktail at my request. But some of prawns tasted particularly fishy & 2 small leaves of lettuce doesn’t make a salad. However, it’s my fault for asking for it when it wasn’t on the menu so no blame. Would though put this dish on the menu? A bit of tomato & more lettuce. Pineapple works really well too. It’s just a suggestion. My fish pie was lovely & the vegetables were yummy My husband had the lamb shank. He enjoyed it immensely. He couldn’t eat it all but it made him a very nice sandwich the day after. The Pinot was good. Would you think of perhaps of selling a Chenin blanch by the glass. Still our favourite place to eat.

Excellent in every respect. The service was quick, quiet and friendly. The only problem with the menu was making a choice! We shared dipping breads as a starter, and moved on to the lamb hock and herbed plaice as our mains. Both were lovely, especially the beurre blanc that came with the plaice. As another reviewer has said, unfortunately we didn't have room for a dessert, all of which looked delicious. The coffee was good as the drinks list offered plenty of choice. Altogether, a superb lunch just when we needed a pick-up! We will certainly be back.

First time at the Lunesdale Arms, had driven by it earlier in the week… What a fantastic experience. Easy for booking a table for dinner (for2) Great menu and drinks selection, a really well presented restaurant in a lovely setting, really pleasant welcoming staff and the food was simply lovely. Only disappointment was on us! After starter and main each we were simply too full to take advantage of the fantastic looking desserts board…. Have to say it’s one of the best mix grills I have had - everything was perfectly cooked and decent cuts - the Spanish Hash starter was AMAZING (Chorizo, potato’s and black pudding with a delightful egg to top.) The Prawns and dipping bread sides were also ordered as a starter and they didn’t let us down. Chicken Cesar salad was delicious and huge so probably didn’t need the side of fries! Will definitely go again.

Love the Lunesdale ! The food, atmosphere and service is excellent. Great value.

Really enjoyed the roast chicken dinner .

We all had a prawn cocktail to start & which was disappointing, as it was just a couple of lettuce leaves, some prawns & loads of Marie Rose dressing on a plate. More effort is needed. The Sunday roasts were tasty. However, we never got asked if we wanted a coffee or dessert. I think there had been a change of staff.

The starter course of crumpet with goat’s cheese was simple but well presented and tasty. The main course was ribeye steak with chips and salad. The steak was probably the worst I have ever encountered. Only a third of it was edible - the rest of it was gristle and fat. I would have returned the dish but I didn’t want disrupt my guest’s meal.

Went for Sunday lunch with four other people. Very impressed with the service, food, decor & ambience. The only issue was that the draft beer was 'off'...

Food was excellent as was the service. The only comment I would make is that portions are very large and for us it was too much. We will definitely be back though

Very good evening with excellent food and service. Well done to Jasmine who was on her first shift. The Lamb was excellent and I can recommend it. The ambiance is very relaxing and enjoyable too. Well done to all involved.

Friendly, helpful and thoroughly professional staff. Nothing was too much trouble. Food was plentiful and absolutely delicious. Would thoroughly recommend this place. Will definitely be back.
