Bandito Burrito in South Lakeland

Great service. Portion sizes very good. I had burrito, mrs had quesadillas. Both very good. Server brought about 5 bottles of different hot sauces to complement the meals. Very filling and great price. Can’t recommend more

I chose this venue due to its high rated trip here and I wasn’t disappointed. The staff were lovely and food was excellent.

Fantastic burrito. Very warm welcome! Much on the menus to choose from too, would highly recommend and will definitely visit again

What a great find, lovely place and Lynn was a fantastic host, great food, down to earth atmosphere, food was spot on and plenty of it… highly recommend. Even let me charge my phone… superstars…. Duane and Ben… (big burrito ideal after climbing Helvellyn.)

We came back to eat here again 😊😊. Made a special trip just to eat here. It was as good as the first time. Excellent food and service.

We came here during our mini moon in the Lake District after reading the reviews. We booked a table a few days before and couldn’t wait to try out the food. We ordered a salt beef burrito which was delicious and a pulled pork quesadilla to which we added black pudding and this was amazing!! The food was very good and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. We will definitely return when we come back next year for our anniversary.

Fabulous, fabulous, fabulous! Lovely staff, great food and drinks, Spiced chai latte was awesome😊 The topped hassleback potatoes were amazing. My son had mac n cheese and gave it 10/10, he said it was possibly the best he's ever had😁 Wish I lived as close as my son does😅

We stopped in about 40 minutes before closing and they checked to see if we could still be served; they agreed and we sat at a small two top right next to the open kitchen. We were surprised that they were not sure if they could accommodate us since closing was more than 30 minutes away. We also had others come in after us who had no trouble getting seated. The hours of the restaurant are somewhat limited and it does seem like they cut off table service well in advance of the closing so plan accordingly. While we were there, a number of people came in to pick up take away. There is also a small selection of products for sale. Where we were seated was busy, snug and abuzz with activity. The food portions were generous and the value for the price was great. The food itself tasted good (they indicated they don't sell tortilla chips with salsa which would have been a nice addition?); in my opinion, it was sort of like a midwest US casual southwest-ish food and atmosphere wise (for reference, there seems to be something of this type in all the college towns where we are from). Overall, this is a small, popular location and a good value.

I’ve been to London on many occasions and have never had good Mexican food so I definitely wasn’t expecting to find it hours outside of a large city! As someone who is of Latin heritage and from Southern California this place is definitely something I recommend for those who have been craving Mexican food. Who knew a small country side town would have a restaurant with great Mexican food??! It’s a smaller place but very good atmosphere, friendly staff, good drink selection, actually spicy salsas(I always miss spicy foods when I’m in the UK), smells like roasted peppers, and gives a very filling portion(recommend a walk down to the lake after to reflex in your delicious burrito). They did have some personal/local twists on the food but it worked and was so f***ing good. My only regret is that I didn’t check what time they closed on Saturday because I would have gone again during my 2 night trip to Windemere. So definitely remember they are people with lives too and check the closing time when you visit because it’s worth a visit to Windermere alone!

Called here on the off chance for lunch. Tiny and cosy inside but there is nothing small about the flavours. The topped potatoes were to die for and the burrito fresh crisp and tasty, so filling we both took 1/2 home!!!

This is our favourite go to place most weekends. We have brunch and then no need to eat for the rest of the day!! I can't particularly recommend anything as it's all delicious I simply can't choose. We have recommended to friends and many have said "best nachos" they've ever had. And the coffee's good too!!

The service here was really friendly and quick, we chose to sit outside so not really sure what it was like inside. Seems like a really busy place. We chose to have the hassleback potatoes topped with chorizo and chicken, they were really nice and the topping was so tasty, way too much coriander for my liking but would ask for less next time. My wife had a special which was Mexican chicken/Mac and cheese quesadilla with salsa and guac which was amazing. I went for the spicy beef burrito which I would not get again, portion size was really generous and packed but wasn’t much mozzarella or cheese sauce if any, was meant to have crispy onions but none, I didn’t find it that tasty, probably just the wrong choice for me as would definitely go back to try something different. Very nice cold couple of beers and reasonably priced, would certainly go back to try more of the menu.

One of our go-to places when in the area and we're here most weeks!! Absolutely love everything I've tried, burritos. quesadillas and bowls. Their Mac N Cheese is also worth trying! Time it right and you won't need to eat for the rest of the day!! Great bargain meals in comparison to many other places in the area.

Been trying to eat here for a while. 3rd time lucky and it did not disappoint. The Burrito and Burrito bowl were awesome 😋. We will definitely be back for more 😊

Stumbled across this location by accident whilst trying to find a coffee place. I noticed they sell coffee but also was intruded by their burritos. Safe to say the beef burrito was 11/10, absolutely amazing and a hugely generous portion for a very reasonable price. The coffee was also incredible. I ordered a wonderful orange cake which I haven't eaten yet but it looks gorgeous and I can already suggest it's probably going to be 10/10 based on the other food. Customer service was incredibly friendly and supportive. I would highly recommend this place and I will be coming again. Loved it

Absolutely delicious and worthy of the great reviews. We would definitely return and recommend to everyone. Not many tables available so we had to click and collect which was easy, two burritos and two burrito bowls. However we made a note on the order 'no coriander'...and on returning home to eat found coriander 😭 I managed to remove it despite being finely chopped throughout, it is my only real dislike so apologies for dropping one star, had we eaten in it might've been resolved. The rest was delicious!

- delicious food! - very generous portions; had a burrito and a side of mac and cheese and the burrito in particular was enormous. - very warm, friendly staff. - charming feel as it’s s with the kitchen in the dining area. - has some cool drinks on the menu.

I would travel from London to Windermere just to eat here again. The restaurant is very basic inside, it appears to look more like a cafe than a restaurant but the food is an absolute 10/10. Best Nachos I think I’ve ever eaten and absolutely loved the ‘Northern twist’ of serving them with Black Pudding! Thanks for a wonderful evening, the staff made it very as well.

Quirky little restaurant with amazingly helpful staff. The food was great and generous portions. I especially was impressed with the hot toddy they made for me as I was suffering from a cold.

Been meaning to try this place since it opened and finally we arrived on our first day in Windermere. Rustic little restaurant with friendly people working hard to produce wholesome food. I had the Cauli Burrito, absolutely delicious, I couldn't have hope for anything better. All four of us left with full tummies feeling very healthy. Reasonable prices, no bandits here, I'm looking forward to our next visit.

Big portions in a great set up. People who work here are fab very chatty and nice, nothing is too much trouble. Burritos are filling, mega portions, hunger lost for at least 6 hours. Go!

The best burrito to ever grace my pallet I absolutely thrive off Mexican food and I can hand on heart say this is by far the best Mexican food I have ever tasted and if your in town you must visit this establishment

Third time back and this place just gets better and BETTER!! A MUST visit for anyone visiting Windermere! Always try something different on the menu and this time it was the Pulled Pork and Mac & Cheese Burrito - yes, you heard it, pulled pork AND M&C! Whoever created this deserves a place on the New Years Honours list! Pulled pork - meaty, smoky, flavoursome! Mac & Cheese - creamy, cheesy, heavenly! Homemade slaw - crunchy, fresh! What more could you want?! The wife had her usual, chicken and chorizo burrito! Chunks of chorizo the size of your thumb in amongst beautifully tender chicken! A salted beef quesadilla to share - superbly done! Mariachi lager - a must try! Incredibly great value for money and if they’d have been open on Sunday, I’d have gone back for the same again! Staff make you feel very welcome and are really attentive! The true hidden gem of Windermere and deserves to be ranked #1!

My husband called in for takeaway lunch on a rainy day ..ordered a salt beef burrito and pulled pork, 15 minute wait £20. They were packed and excellent meat and flavours..super filling! Only think to make it even better We found the rice quite wet and in turn didn't really hold, and made the wrap soggy . If it were drier it would be perfect x

Couldn’t believe how good this was. As the title says I’ve had quite a bit of Mexican food before and this probably tops it all. The salty beef brisket was unbelievable, as was the max and cheese. Would recommend to anyone

Absolutely stunning!! We managed to book a table for five of us with 30 minutes notice - with a baby and a dog!! We’d already researched the menu so knew we were going to love it, but the food was honestly INCREDIBLE. Two of us had the special beef chilli burrito bowl (with a side of hassleback potatoes, nachos AND a side of mac and cheese!!), one had the pulled pork mac and cheese, another had the pulled pork burrito and the other had the spicy beef burrito bowl. Full tummies and compliments all around. The staff were so lovely and welcoming - very attentive and even gave my little dog a treat and a bowl of water without us having to ask. The food was truly stunning and I’m so glad we managed to grab a table before we left for home. THANK YOU SO MUCH to all at Bandito Burrito!!

Great little restaurant. Food was exceptional. Fantastic range of chilli sauces. Service was efficient. Staff were engaging.

Came on a Friday evening! Great service, delicious burritos and mac and cheese. All in all a lovely experience and would definitely visit again.

Such a great find….the food is delicious, the atmosphere is cosy, they serve stunning margaritas 🍹 and the staff are the friendliest and warmest bunch of people you’ll meet…highly recommended. Thank you so much, Sarah

We came for a spot of lunch, staff were very friendly and attentive and squeezed us on an inside table. Good was amazing we had the nachos and burrito. Best burrito I've had in a long time. All the food was fresh. Service amazing. Cannot recommend this place enough

The food is exceptional! We called in when passing. We were seated at the back of the restaurant. The service was quick and friendly. A great menu. Some nice Mexican beers and sodas.

Popped into this lovely place for a take away. Food was amazing and staff so friendly. Just visiting the area but would defo recommend

We couldn’t decide between Mexican and Tapas. So glad Mexican won! What a quaint little place. We were seated within 10 minutes of stumbling in without a reservation, in an already busy restaurant. Staff were friendly and food was so tasty. We had beef brisket and chicken and chorizo burritos followed by a lovely homemade Bakewell tart, all washed down with Mexican lager. The bill was under £50. We were impressed. Highly recommend, we would definitely revisit.

Unfortunately we found this on our last night, would definitely have visited more than once. Nachos with pulled pork were amazing, burrito so filling and quesadillas full of flavour. Staff attentive but not in your face, just perfect!!

This is truly a 5+ star restaurant. We came for lunch and enjoyed it so much, we made reservations to come back for dinner. Homemade guacamole and homemade salsa to die for. Best meal we’ve had in England. 👍☺️

Superb hospitality. A range of super authentic Mexican Flavours and really affordable. Also an excellent array of non meat options. They even welcomed our dog into their intimate restaurant. Super music and food. We ate here 3 times in a week!

I can only speak as to the mushroom and chipotle burrito I had as a takeaway, but it was one bulging pocket of taste. For those with a smaller gut than mine, possibly enough for two meals.
