Fantastic food and restaurant. The service was brilliant and the staff were all really friendly and attentive. Perfect way to start xmas eve. Will be back again!

Excellent food, cooked to perfection. Great value for money considering the excellent quality, taste and amount given. Service was excellent and it had a lovely atmosphere. Thank you and looking forward to returning soon.

Excellent all round

Well prepared, tasty food at a reasonable price. Service was excellent.

Another great meal at the Lunesdale. Had the lovely corner table in the bar. The Bacon Chop was fantastic, and the service from Tamsin and Tilly absolutely faultless!

We live in the village and last night had a meal with family to celebrate an 80th Birthday The food was excellent as was the service and the staff are very friendly and efficient

Excellent all round

We ate early doors on Friday evening, all 4 of us chose something different and it was all exceptional. All the waiting on staff were polite and friendly. We will definitely be back. Thank you.

Lovely evening meal with family, in a warm friendly and welcoming atmosphere, delicious food reasonably priced.

Starter, chefs take on Scotch Egg was great! 5 stars for that. Portion size was on the larger size for starter and main. Staff were on the ball and provided the right level of service in a really professional way. 2x Rib Eye steak were tasty, stronger flavour than I was excepting but a little chewy, and in my opinion over done for the ‘medium’ request - I’m being picky though because it’s a £30 steak! Good enough not to complain about to the staff but an upper medium rated rib eye.

Yesterday we enjoyed a wonderful lunch along with two other members of our family. Service was spot on, the food was excellent and good value for money. Nothing at all to complain about !

We have eaten here many times since 2018 this is the only time I have experienced some issues with the food we had ordered 2 well done steaks they came out rare when asked if they could be cooked further this was not a problem however left plates with juices on & took steaks on a spatula we were told chef was cooking 2 “fresh” steaks however both original steaks came back out they were cooked better but very dry meat quality not as good as remember previously waiting staff very pleasant just few issues making it not as good experience as I’ve had before

This restaurant is one of our favourites and I think we may be classed as regulars. However last evening,the 5th December, we were disappointed. We both ate fish pie, which looked and tasted like it had been made days ago and reheated. Dry and tasteless. We mentioned our disappointment when asked at the till but there was no recourse

Our Ruby wedding was celebrated here on 30th November 2025. The food was amazing and the staff were very professional and attentive. Our 28 guests were all served very promptly and all commented about the exceptional quality. I would highly recommend this venue for a party of this size. Thank you very much The Lunesdale.

Lovely pub with excellent food and friendly staff

First time eating here and will definitely go again. Food was excellent, service was excellent and good value, £138 for four mains, a kids meal, 5 desserts and three drinks. Not sure how to mark atmosphere as we were the earliest available booking and were the only ones there but it was getting busier as we left.

A really lovely meal. Relaxing ambience, fantastic starter, excellent house wine and really good quality produce well cooked. Full marks . Enjoyed everything g about the meal and thank you to the smiling and helpful staff.
