Reviews in Milnthorpe

We have eaten Sunday lunches at the Wheatsheaf on several occasions recently and really enjoy them. We find the food excellent both quality and value, the staff are lovely and the ambience in the dining/pub areas is perfect.

A wonderful find. Staff, food and atmosphere excellent. Will definitely be coming again.

Booked a table in advance for a small group via the website, good communication on the booking, friendly welcome and great service throughout the night. Food was excellent, really good atmosphere, very pleasant evening.

We had lunch at the Wheatsheath to celebrate my husband's birthday . We were not disappointed. We both had the fish and chips . They were beautifully cooked and presented. Although the pub was very busy the waitress was very attentive and the wait not too long. Our little dog Evie was welcomed . We will definitely return in the not too distant future.

Excellent food and service in an ancient and atmospheric pub. All reasonably priced with good parking available.

We enjoyed a tasty lunch in a relaxing, welcoming setting. Service and food excellent. Thank you Wheatsheaf!!!

Excellent evening all round, as usual. Food, service and atmosphere just perfect. Two specials (venison casserole and chicken, ham and black pudding pie) were spot on, as were the fish and chips. Good portions, but not overwhelming. Thank you, once again.

My wife and I enjoyed a gorgeous meal on Friday night. We were made to feel very welcome and were attended to by lovely staff. My wife even took a photo of the beautifully decorated toilets! Nothing was too much trouble and we were encouraged to do the Fairy Steps walk with a free guide given. That was well worth doing. Will definitely call again. The Inn is a member of Britstops so we stayed overnight in our campervan, will recommend to other users.

Very nice evening. We’ll be back!

Delicious roast dinner, and great customer service!

Lovely food & great service. This is a beautiful pub well worth a visit. Can’t recommend it highly enough.

Lunch at the Wheatsheaf was more than just pub grub. The food tasted fresh and the portions were generous. The staff were friendly and service was prompt. As someone who hates background music, its absence was very welcome in the spacious dining area.

Wonderful country pub with superb selection of dishes including vegan options Great wine selection by the glass Excellent value

The Wheatsheaf went above & beyond the call of duty when we arrived half an hour late for our booking meaning they had stopped food service. (We could get no phone signal to inform them) The staff were very kind & still provided us with an excellent meal. Full marks to all the staff. Brilliant.

We booked for 4 adults, 1 teen, and 1 child on a Saturday lunch time. It is a central location as we are spread about and I looked the look of the online site and reviews so I booked. We arrived early (around 20 minutes) as traffic was light but this was not a problem for the Wheatsheaf, we were greeted with a warm welcome and given seats at our table. The building itself is quirky, old, peppered with curios and antiques and very tastefully decorated. The staff were very attentive but discrete, always available to assist but not interrupting the conversation. There are also call buttons on every table (even outside) should you require assistance but not be able to see anyone. The menu was interesting with every taste catered for, seafood, chicken, beef, veg and vegan all had options. A good selection of seasonal local produce had clearly been sourced to tempt diners. We had a variety of the choices between us, from Morecambe Bay shrimp to halloumi portions for starters, Philly steak, burger and fish for main courses. There wasn't a single thing wrong with any of the food or service. We were in the area for a special occasion and the venue and meal were prefect for the day.

Lovely food as always in this beautiful historic building . Would highly recommend

the food was well presented. we had the Sunday roast. only critical point was the amount of meat ,,,, one very large slice. We added a shared pigs in blankets and some cauliflower cheese between the four of us..... Dogs were very welcome and the staff were excellent. Not cheap but good value for money...
