Reviews in Penrith

Great service from our local, cosy pub. A lovely Xmas dinner special after a night running on the fells

Visited recently to celebrate my husband's birthday. Staff were very welcoming and the food was delicious. Enjoyed all three courses with good wine . Would definitely visit again if in Penrith and would recommend it.

We happened to come across Grants whilst on a stay over on the way to Scotland travelling from Leicester. Originally we had booked the table for late evening but our circumstances changed and even though they were fully booked, they managed to fit us in if we agreed to vacate within a certain timeframe. They expedited our order to give us the maximum experience. The staff were very attentive and helpful and gave us recommendations for each course. The food was superb I had the Halibut it was lovely others had the turkey dinner and one had the garlic and Chilli prawn risotto. The puddings were superb the sticky toffee pudding and the apple crumble with damson sorbet was amazing. We really enjoyed all the food and the staff made it a great meal and even recommended where to get breakfast in the morning, which also was great. Next time we are passing we will be back.

Lovely old country pub with classic pub food and warm cosy atmosphere.

Wonderful food and a lovely welcome. Will obviously return . Many thanks.

It’s always been an easy option, when staying near Penrith, to walk to a local pub for a meal but after a bit of research we drove to Penrith. We certainly made the right decision. Friendly staff, great food ( beef cheeks and the filet steak were cooked beautifully) Would certainly recommend Grants of Castlegate to anyone staying in the area

Sunday lunch with a group of friends, and everyone commented on how good the food (and drink) was. Nice selection of vegetables with the Sunday roasts, and an excellent nut roast served with vegan gravy. Great flagstone and wooden floor, and proper "old cosy pub" feel to it. Steph behind the bar was lovely and friendly.

Absolutely amazing food and service every time, we absolutely love it here, the food is just amazing and the staff are lovely and very friendly, just wish I lived closer as we would be here all the time. Penriths little Jem for fabulous food.

Stayed in my campervan overnight which was free as long as I had dinner in the pub which I would expect anyway really good food, friendly staff and great atmosphere. Lovely old traditional pub

My meal at Grants was excellent as was the service. I was surprised by the lack of people on a Friday night because the quality of the producd and chefs skills are 5/5. The wine selection is outdated and the interior.

Stayed at the Queens Head Inn 2 nights over the weekend with family. What a fantastic place. The Inn has so much character and a lovely ambience. The staff were probably the friendliest and welcoming we have ever met in a hotel, they go above and beyond to ensure a pleasant stay for their guests. We ate in the restaurant for evening meal and breakfast. The food was gorgeous. It was fresh and good quality and enjoyed by all in our party. Highly recommend the Queens Head Inn and we will definitely be back.

My wife and I diner here on a quiet night, but as before the food and service was very good, good choice of drinks so we will be back again within the near future.

Great stay , great dinner and great brekkie...well done guys.

As always service brill and food the best .. love this place .see u all in the new year xxx

Food and service great thanks again

We ate there last night 30th October, the food was excellent. The staff were very attentive, knowledgeable and friendly. The atmosphere score was not a 5 as it was a Wednesday night and most customers were leaving as we arrived later in the evening. We will definitely dine there again in the near future it is well worth the 40 mile round trip

We had a lovely meal at the Queens Head. We had a drink in the bar first which had a lovely ambience and atmosphere. The restaurant was delightful with the food and service being top quality. Recommend booking as it is very popular.
