Characterful Grasmere restaurant named after a character in a Wordsworth poem.

About Goody Blake’s

Hidden away behind the shops and Post Office on the main drag into Grasmere, Goody Blake’s is an eclectic little restaurant worth seeking out. It’s named after a character in a Wordsworth poem and chef patron Clark Adams has been manning the stoves here for a decade now. He promises customers ‘good food and plenty of it’ and his menus draw inspiration from far and wide. You might start off with mussels or camembert and move on to a lamb shank, a stir fry or a curry. Ostrich fillets make the occasional appearance too and fish is sourced from Scotland. Goody Blake’s is open seven days a week from 6pm until 9pm. There are two dedicated parking spots outside – or the larger car park across the road - and in the evening you can park at the school next door.

Second time we have eaten here and really struggle to understand why it isn't full all the time. Very varied menu and quality and cist are impeccable. Maybe people don't like food done well and just want mass produced. If you want good food go here.

Having spent time deciding where to eat we chose Goody Blake's It was quiet as there was a storm outside. The food was excellent, cooked properly and with care. We enjoyed it that much we booked for a second evening. I would definitely recommend.
Disillusioned
Cancelled my booking (twice) and yet still received this feedback. I was staying very near to the restaurant which was rarely open & when it was it was devoid of customers. Sorry but I couldn’t face sitting in a bleak restaurant with hardly any diners.

This was a great find on our recent holiday to Grasmere. The food was excellent quality and there was a lovely choice of dishes - sadly we went on our last night so we will have to wait until our next visit to try other items. Service was very friendly and helpful and the chef even came and gave our dog a bowlful of leftover ham which he was obviously delighted by! We will definitely visit again and can highly recommend.

Hidden gem! A must try when you’re in grasmere. Sue is absolutely lovely and warm and Clark an excellent chef. I ate there numerous times and tried various items from the menu - none of which disappointed!

Every year we visit this superb Bistro. The food is always top class and the new specials board is excellent. Caring and thoughtful staff and the owner/chef always has time to converse with the clientele.
