About Grants Of Castlegate

Grants of Castlegate in Penrith is a modern British bistro and wine bar with a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. It’s housed in a characterful Victorian building with a small, sheltered garden to the rear. Chef-patron Stephen Tierney has worked in hotels and restaurants in Scotland, London, Miami, Alaska and Australia and he draws on that experience to produce carefully cooked dishes based around the best local ingredients. The menu is vegetarian friendly with vegan option too and as well as fine wines and local beers there is a large selection of spirits and liqueurs, including single malts.  Grants of Castlegate is open for dinner Wednesday to Sunday. They also have a furnished holiday let available if you wish to base yourself in Penrith and explore the local area.

Visited for a birthday meal. From the booking process through to the meal the staff were incredible, so helpful and accommodating and nothing was too much trouble. The food was amazing, beautiful choice, great ingredients, wonderfully presented and tasted amazing! Good portion size too. We were allowed to take our own cake, they let my son bring it out and even took it to the kitchen to cut it up for us etc. lovely atmosphere, smart but relaxed and friendly. 100% recommend

My wife and son were visiting Penrith for a family gathering and needed somewhere to eat on Friday evening. I found Grants on TripAdvisor - it had great reviews and was convenient for where we stayed. The evening did not disappoint. The service was helpful and attentive but not overbearing. The food was fantastic with some wonderful flavours. I would definitely go again if I was in the area. Highly recommend.

What a lovely place! Excellent food with a wide range of choices. Service very friendly and welcoming. Even the background music was perfect for us. Cannot speak too highly of this place!
Angela
Excellent food and service. Seated straight away. Menus and drinks arrived quickly. The lamb dish was with a salad, asked if it could be served with veg, no problem and was delicious. We all (four ladies) had a lovely time, and would definitely return
