Reviews in Milnthorpe

Very disappointing experience indeed. The dinner was of poor quality. I chose the haggis and was served with a small mound of mashed vegetables topped with some greasy and tasteless minced beef. There were no fresh vegetables to accompany this offering which cost nearly £14. My partner had the fish and chips and was not impressed. The dessert was Affogato which is difficult to ruin but, again, was a miniscule portion, the espresso was only lukewarm and this cost over £6. The staff were friendly and the service was good but, because of the poor quality of the food, we won't be returning.

Fish & Chips excellent Sticky Toffee Pud excellent Roast Beef mains average Great attentive staff & not expensive Generslly a very pleasant experience

Stayed on the Sunday Special, good value at £109 for dinner bed and breakfast. Quaint village in the countryside despite being minutes from a busy road. Very dog friendly.

Friendly and attentive staff Food was tasty and well presented at dinner Breakfast was very good, porridge and granola large portions and good quality Poached eggs and haddock was good You can always pick holes in any F&B experience but the Wheatsheaf for a small pub in a rural area where staff are not plentiful was very good

We were staying at the hotel so booked dinner as well. The restaurant was really busy for mid-week - a very good sign. Not a lot of choice so I chose steak and pepper pie which was brilliant with loads of separate gravy - and this from someone who NEVER eats pies nor gravy. My husband's gammon and eggs was not as good as some he's had but ok. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was not as good. Tea was cold, toast a bit hard, cooked breakfasts took a long time arriving, sausage with the full English was a cheap and unpleasant one, not up to the standard of a not-cheap hotel.

Great staff very helpful, food was good and breakfast was excellent

Lovely little country pub. Maybe a bit pricey but food was great.

Fantastic Sunday dinner enjoyed in a great setting with fantastic service. Highly recommend the Wheatsheaf for dining out.

lovely old building. clean and tidy. staff super helpful and couldn’t do enough. will definitely stay here again. food was fantastic and beautiful cooked.

menu is not the biggest but the food was very good and tasty

Great meal. Best roast beef we have had in a long time. Staff are always friendly and helpful. Highly recommend!

Lovely Sunday lunch with the little one and my parents. Service was quick despite being busy. Food enjoyed by all and colouring thoroughly enjoyed by little one. Only complaint was that smokers smoke right outside the door, which is open, bringing smoke into the eating area.

What a fantastic meal,great choice on the menu and the service was brilliant would definitely go back again

The atmosphere on a Friday is great and a lot of new faces who are all helpful and welcoming and that just adds to the delicious food. The cobb salad is gorgeous with avocado, eggs, pecans, chicken breast and bacon plus the expected salad leaves but this is more protein than salad so no skimping here and ordered garlic bread without cheese which is my first choice now for the best garlic bread and I love my garlic bread. My friend’s son wanted something plain and this was arranged with no problems and averted a meltdown. We did have to ask for the dessert menu twice but to be fair it was crazy busy. Definitely book in advance if possible.

Great food. Service was fantastic.

Lovely food as always- love this pub Did ask for desert menu but didn’t get it? Paid bill and left - will be back

Alas we did not stay to eat. The table for 2 was located next to the stairs with barely a space to pass on either side - a bit like a broom cupboard. I was told it was a pity I didn’t phone to request where I wanted to sit. I won’t be returning in a hurry.
