Reviews in Ulverston

Myself (male) and two male friends decided to try Italian and went to Rossinis in Ulverston last March (2010). The menu was quite impressive for just a market town in the wilds of South Cumbria. We all decided on Pizzas and we swapped and "picked and mixed". They took a while to arrive but were cooked fresh from original ingredients. You could tell from the taste. While we were waiting the helpful waiter brought us complimentary marinated mixed olives - delicious. We were taking turns to drive so stuck to soft drinks but we noticed that they have Peroni on draught - so next time? Anyway for us there will be a next time - definitely. They do take away as well, but you have to phone ahead. Pop, Paul & Pete.

Delicious food and a great little cafe for people who like to find 'a hidden gem' in a back street. This is one place that is definitely worth searching for. So much much better than many of the other cafes in Ulverston.

Went there last year on holiday, was very impressed, so much so drove from bowness in may holidays to try their food again, once again great fresh food served well, great service and choice. Well done all involved, loved your heroes pie, can I have the recipe?

I went here to console myself on my 40th (gulp) birthday on Tuesday, with two friends. We had a fantastic afternoon, complete with afternoon tea and dainty cakes, which we had to take home as the portions are so generous. As busy working mums we all decided to make this our guilty pleasure on a more regular basis. Thankyou Gillams, this is a little vegetarian oasis we could idle an afternoon away in - my daughter is also in love with the strawberry lemonade!

We booked a table but arrived late - (after they'd closed). We were made really welcome and found the manager really helpful. One of our party has a wheat intolerance and was pleasantly surprised that she was offered wheat free pasta!!. I had their homemade pizza with a salad, both tasted really fresh. We had a couple of bottles of chianti with our mains which was equally delicious. I'd recommend Rossinis to couples and groups - there's a fantastic vibe and we thoroughly enjoyed our evening. 5 stars!!

One of the Lake Districts little gems..... Get yourself to the next beer festival!!!

A very friendly atmosphere, brilliant food and where possible-locally sourced,have returned many times & never had a bad meal yet. competitively priced. cannot fault. would imagine an ideal place to celebrate xmas. would be confident to recommend to anyone. good luck for the future and looking forward to regular visits in 2010 when the caravan season re-starts & we return to Cumbria. from Dave & Rita - York.

I'm sorry to have to write this but my wife and I had a meal at the Anglers Arms Haverthwaite on Friday 21st August and it was absolutely disgusting.The starter was a minuscule portion and very bland. The main course is probably the most bland stodgy and nondescript meal I have eaten since my school dinner days. To add insult, the manager offered us a ten percent discount off our meal.A dreadful experience we will never go back again

As far as mexican restaurants go, Amigos is by far the best we have ever visited. The food was delicious and came quickly. I recommend the Loaded skins for starters and the Pollo con Jalepenos. They also have a range of frozen cocktails which tasted fabulous. The waitress (Emma) is a wonderful hostess and instantly made us feel very comfortable. After finishing our meal, we insisted on commending the chef on the fabulous food. The chef (who is also the owner) was very friendly and keen to talk to us. We would recommend this restaurant to couples and families alike. Despite the fact that we came up from Manchester for a week, this has highlighted our holiday and we will definitely be visiting again. Please note: The entrance is at the rear :-) xxx

We went as a group of 13 on sat. night for a birthday celebration. We had pre-booked our meals and they came named to avoid any confusion. Food was great and the service was excellent and very good-humoured. Would definitely recommend and visit again

excellent food cooked to your liking, we try and go every Wednesday, keep up the good work The lad,s

New to the area and keen to try out local pubs, we have eaten here twice and have been most impressed. The food is locally sourced, freshly cooked - not reheated like the chains - and very well presented. They offer English Lakes ice-cream as part of their extensive dessert menu. Staff are always friendly and happy to chat. Prices are very reasonable for food of this quality. It always seem to be busy with diners in the evening so they must be impressing other people too!

Hello,my wife and i ,and her brother and a friend,were staying at the Whitewater hotel timeshare cottages in Backbarrow.We visited this pub many times while we staying here DEC 2008.The company and food was great.

Lovely little Tea room, just wish that they allowed little dogs in on cold wet days...no where in Ulverston allows dogs which is a shame as there are so many delightful walks around the town.

I love the fact that unless you know its there you wouldn't find it! The walnut bread is always delicious, and they make the coffee to your requirements. Add to that all lovely children's things its fantastic

The anglers arms .I ate there on the 30 of sep this year been only took by 3 people the food was so good i have booked my family in for a xmas meal

I cannot wait to go back to Amigo's again, I was with a party of four booked in on a busy Saturday night. Even though the staff were extremely busy they were efficient and remained helpful and friendly throughout. The restaurant has a real Mexican feel to it and yes I do know it is a Mexican restaurant but it pulls the look off in a casual yet authentic way. The menu incorporates a vegetarian choice and also offers steak and chips for the less adventurous but if you like food that is colourful, flavoursome, interesting and above all else delicious then look no further.
