28th December 2013 and we went back to the Eagle and Child Inn for dinner. Full house and sensational food. Fish pie packed with king prawn and lovely fluffy topping with cheese cover and a steak and ale pie to match any in the Lakes. This is not a fluke but a place to treasure in many ways. Many thanks for our second treat in three days!

Boxing Day 2013 travelling towards Staveley parked up opposite The Eagle and Child Inn with its inviting Christmas glow. Lovely warm open fire close to the bar and a similarly warm welcome from the barman. With a pint of Silver Badge we asked about the food menu and noted the blackboard specials before chosing the lamb shank with creamy mash with a red wine gravy and selected our table near to the other wood burning fireplace. Candlit tables provided a warm glow throughout. The food arrived soon afterwards courtesy of a friendly waiter who asked if we needed anything more to go with our meal. Delicious. So too was the dessert, apple crumble with ice cream. Two very satisfied diners. Many thanks for such a warm and welcoming experience.

This establishment is very welcoming, the staff are friendly and very helpful. The appearance is warm and cosy. The food is delicious and looked mouth watering. I would recommend this fine establishment to all country lovers. It is a very child friendly place.
