Lovely hotel, reception staff member was curt when asked for a table and simply pointed to the restaurant doors. Maitre'd was efficient. Food was just passable. The 2 curries we had were far to salty, one being nearly inedible. Started of prawn was good. Won't go back

Have stayed in the hotel and ate in the restaurant several times when visiting Keswick, unfortunately I won't be visiting the restaurant or recommending it again. The restaurant experience received recently was pretty appalling, poor service from at least four different servers, wrong meals delivered, not a care given, grill food way overpriced plus you've then got to pay for sides to make it a meal, starters state a chorizo scotch egg....there was no chorizo visible to either the eye or the pallet, nobody cared to ask how the food was, asked at least 6 times to different staff members for the bill and waited at least 40 minutes for it to arrive. I'm sure there were problems but we watched at least ten people walk out without paying and in honesty I didn't blame them. There seems to have been major changes in this restaurant and none of them have made it better.

Staff were friendly and so attentive, the food was great. My steak, a 10oz bone in sirloin was bit more on the rare side of medium-rare for my liking but it was sooooo tasty. I would have thought steak came with chips rather than being an optional extra. Will definitely visit next time I'm in Keswick!

One of the best steaks I’ve had in a very long time, cooked to absolute perfection. Great service which was really attentive but not over the top. I had the bacon mushrooms, the greens, and mash, my partner had the corn on the cob, greens and skinny fries. All absolutely delicious. Steak sauces were fab as well - I tried both the truffle bearnaise and the blue cheese because me and my partner couldn’t decide between the two, so we both ordered one and tried each. Would definitely go back as the food was stunning just a shame there weren’t more people to boost atmosphere. I can let that go when the food is that superb!

Had Sunday lunch in Inn on the Square, Keswick today. Lovely modern bright hotel but lunch did not live up to expectations. Starters were good. Roast beef that three of us ordered was poor as very well done, tough and burned on the edge.s. The deserts were nothing exciting either. Complained to waiter about the beef and was told he’d tell the chef about this but no acknowledgment from kitchen. All in all a disappointing Sunday lunch for four adults and not much change out of £180! Service was ok but given how quiet the restaurant was they were not very attentive.

One of the best meals I've ever had! Highly recommended! We did the Salmon lollipop for a starter, the charteubriand for the main, and the sticky toffee pudding as the dessert. The salmon lollipop was perfect for sharing and was a really clever idea. The meat was super juicy, so much so, we just could not resist devouring that first then having the sides that came with it (also nice) after. The sticky toffee pudding was also delicious.

Blink and you'll miss it moment when we first tried to find the place. It's called Inn in the Square which we didn't realise and phone data was poor so we couldn't Google it, but by chance we found it and it's a very warm and luxurious type of establishment. We knew it would be by the price, so it definitely lived up to expectations Initial service was poor as we were 10 minutes early and the lady at the reception said we had to wait but didn't indicate for us where to wait and even ignored my son. She didn't seem to have much time for us wet folk. After that though the service was amazing. Our server was a well dressed man who treat us so well, I felt almost rich at that point haha. I asked for the gluten free options and he was very knowledgeable about which ones were safe. Three things on the sides were gf, the soup form the starters, all the steaks, and the chicken masala. I went with the masala, not expecting it to be anything fab, and mushroom and bacon on the side. My partner had the oak smoked steak and son had the fillet, with chunky chips and garlic bread. They came out after around 20 or so minutes. The first whiff of the masala was amazing and as soon as I tasted it I was in love. It had a mango chutney, onion and tomato relish, flavoured rice and poppadom. The chicken just melted in your mouth. On all honesty, it was by far the best chicken tikka masala I have ever had. My family loved their choices as well as the their sides. It cost a lot but it really was a wonderful service and food so I really can't grumble. A birthday treat for my wonderful partner.

We revisited the Brossen after having a great experience here last summer. We were a little apprehensive after reading previous reviews but didn't need to be. We had a fab experience. We couldn't fault the service, staff were attentive but not overbearing. Steak was cooked just how we requested and the drinks were lovely too! We would definitely return ☺️

Firstly, the restaurant and entrance to the hotel is beautiful furnished and decorated. However, I came for lunch with my partner and I’d asked for my steak medium rare. When it came, it was more like medium well (hardly any pink). I’d also ordered a truffle bernaise sauce and it tasted of absolutely nothing, no hint of truffle. When I’d mentioned this to our waiter, he looked at me blankly and confused, however suggested he could get me another, albeit rather reluctantly, I accepted. No apology from this waiter whatsoever, but instead, I felt as if I was an inconvenience and he seemed annoyed at me. He did offer to bring out fresh condiments to be fair to him, but I said it was ok, mostly because I was hungry. He brought the new steak, plonked it down and didn’t really say anything. Again, no apology. Five minutes later I could see that he’d sent another member of staff over to come and ask if everything was ok. This member of staff was lovely and attentive and didn’t make me feel awkward, just as the man had. There was only us and one other table dining so it’s not because he was seeing to others. He was just stood, clearly not wanting to return to ask us if everything was ok. He then walked past our table a few times, making a conscious effort to ignore me, didn’t check if everything was ok with the second steak or even give us eye contact. Again, he wasn’t busy with any other tables as it was extremely quiet. He clearly just didn’t want to deal with us. The lovely, friendly female of staff dealt with us for the remainder of our meal which I was grateful for anyway. My second steak still wasn’t brilliant, it was quite sinew-y and tough. But the man made me feel so awkward that I felt like I couldn’t say anything again so I just shut up and ate it. The chips were lovely I must say. But I was very disappointed that for a restaurant specialising in steak, that I didn’t enjoy either. I may sound like a real ‘jobs-worth’ of a customer but generally I’m not. The majority of the reviews I leave on Tripadvisor are positive ones because I always like to give great feedback if I’ve had a nice experience. But unfortunately this was not a nice experience, I was made to feel awkward for the majority of our meal and time in this restaurant. I think this waiter seriously needs retraining in customer service as it’s not a good reflection on the hotel or restaurant. The female waitress however, was lovely so it’s a shame. Maybe I’d have enjoyed my second steak more and overlooked any faults if I hadn’t have felt so awkward and like an inconvenience, but paying £40 for a disappointing steak and to feel bad is not what I was visiting Brossen steakhouse for.

Regret not reading the other “terrible” reviews before booking this for our family of four for dinner last night. The quality of the steak was truly awful - grisly and flavourless - very disappointing particularly for the extortionate price we paid for it. Sides were also poor - a cold tomato burned on top, overcooked veg. Service was ok but slow - our main waiter was very friendly and helpful but manager had a bit of an attitude when we pointed out one of our sides was wrong. All tolerable in a less pricey establishment but really poor value for money in such an expensive place.

Would not recommend my worst enemy to dine here. The steaks was inedible. The service not very good and the surroundings was rubbish tables to close together for the prices that they charge was overpriced for what you get booked a month in advance for a rubbish table asked if we could change and told bluntly no. Wrong order brought for mains. Completely ruined an anniversary dinner. Poor quality steaks for a so called steakhouse

Reviews looked good, and to be fair the steaks were cooked well, but that’s where the good stuff ended. The steaks weren’t seasoned at all and tasted rather bland, the garlic sauce was flavourless, the sides are obscenely priced, and nothing we received was worth anything like the price we paid. Usually I’d have raised my concerns with the wait staff, but nobody bothered to come to check on us. I wasn’t expecting fine dining, but at £50+ per head I was expecting a little better than a chain pub.

We visited mid week early evening with our 11 month old. We are only local and had a voucher to use from last Christmas so had the steak sharer. We thoroughly enjoyed the meal, the steak was cooked perfectly. What was stand out was the service from the Romanian waiter Grago, he was absolutely superb with our little girl who was everywhere and anywhere and didn’t want to sit still. He was so pleasant, welcoming and nothing was too much. The Lake District has desperately missed our European workers, it is a pleasure to see them back and help push the service. You have been a huge miss over the last few years. Hats off to you, you are an absolute credit to the rest of your friends working in hospitality here in the Lake District.

This was my 2nd visit to this restaurant in 3 weeks, I wish I had got the name of the lady who appeared to be front of house as she was shocking. I had booked us in and put a note on the booking that we had a dog with us, twice she said I hadn’t put a note, I had, but I didn’t need to be told a further twice that I hadn’t! The 3 weeks before the same lady had served me & my family in the bar area, our round of drinks was expensive and served up with attitude and just plain rudeness. Such a shame as the restaurant staff are lovely. Food was extremely average, my husbands roast beef was very rough so he left it, he didn’t want to complain but I explained to them that it was inedible, no one appeared bothered. We come to Keswick a lot, I won’t come here again.

Incredible steaks and great ambiance Having googled best steaks in the lakes we settled on Brossen and were not disappointed. We’ve lived a privileged life and eaten at Marriane Lumbs, with Gary Rhodes and at a couple of Alex Aitkens restaurants and this was by far the best steaks we’ve ever had. For the first time ever I asked to speak to the chef to compliment him. Those steaks were perfection. Sadly our desert order was forgotten and, when we went to the loo I got the distinct impression they thought we had done a runner but when a steak is that good you can forgive them that, highly recommended

My husband popped in here to ask about the possibility of a table where we could order from the steakhouse menu as we had our dog with us (here on holiday). It was our 10th wedding anniversary and we wanted something a bit more special than the usual pub meal. The guy at the desk was great, said they could seat us just outside the restaurant doors in some lovely cosy seats and our dog would be welcome. We came the next day, food was amazing. Shared the 20oz chateaubriand with sides of chips, onion rings and steamed veg. The waiter was wonderful I wish I caught his name; he was fab with our boxer dog lots of fuss, bowl of water and a treat. Really made us feel relaxed yet we could enjoy the higher end setting of a lovely restaurant with amazing food. Whole experience was perfect. We will definitely come back and likely stay in the hotel in the future too. Thank you 😊

A nice evening meal out. The decor and ambience of the restaurant was welcoming, light and open. You certainly felt like you were walking into a nice place. We were quickly escorted to our table and drinks ordered which came within 10 minutes. For starters we had ‘tempura’ sea food and chicken parfait. Unfortunately the batter was way to thick to be called tempura which was a shame because I ended up leaving over half the batter due to it being too thick and uncooked on the inside. I ended up taking out the shell fish. Which I will add. Was cooked beautifully. Very well cooked. Just a shame on the batter. The chicken parfait was very smooth and full of flavour with thick cut bread and sweet and tangy onion jam/marmalade. For mains we ordered 2x 10oz rib eye medium rare and 2 x 7oz fillet with 5 sides being 2 x chunky chips, ‘seasonal’ veg, onion rings (warning coming up) and creamed spinach. The steaks were delicious and cooked perfectly to our liking which were accompanied by a roasted tomato and shallot. The sauces again were very nice. Chunky chips were fluffy and crispy. The creamed spinach was amazing and had a nice thick layer of cheese on top. Now, the onion rings, came with a thin cheese (maybe Parmesan) sauce drizzled on top. Which wasn’t stated on the menu. Unfortunately my partner doesn’t like strong cheese so this was a big no for her. Big shame. The seasonal veg, isn’t what most would class as seasonal, more like steamed/boiled standard broccoli cauliflower carrots peas swimming in a shallow pool of water in the bottom of the cup. Overall, I would recommend and I would come again!

Great service, however the food wasn’t great. The food had two problems; first, his price is very expensive, for a plate of 4 small pieces and not tasty kebabs and not much more meat, the price was very high -75£, and a vegetarian burger-20£. The second problem was that the food wasn’t tasty. For my opinion to serve in this high quality of a restaurant a frozen vegetarian burger and to charge 20£ for it, is terrible. Although my bad opinion about the restaurant, I would like to mention the great waiters which showed great knowledge in the menu and were very nice to us. To sum up, I won’t return to this restaurant and I recommend to others to grab a 5£ burger at a fast food restaurant instead going in to this restaurant because it would be tastier and cheaper!

Lovely meal in a very nice restaurant. The steaks were a very good size, 10oz rather than the usual 8oz. Well cooked to order and good size sides too! Desserts were over priced for the size. The restaurant is situated at the back of the hotel, and is well decorated and kept. Some of the tables were a little closer together, so if you would like to talk to your partner without overhearing, ask for a table near the service pass.

Excellent steak and service never disappoints. Shame one couple seemed intent on making a member of staffs life a nightmare (visited on Friday 30th June) - the staff member was there when we visited in September (a manager of some form?) and seemed pretty shaken by their horrible attitude. No need for it, these people aren’t paid to deal with our bad moods. Don’t miss out on this place when you’re in Keswick, the sharing steak can’t be beaten and the bar at the back is great for a relaxed drink during the day too.

Came for Sunday lunch, left feeling deflated, it was Easter Sunday but the lunch menu was very restricted. I usually love this restaurant and the choice, but today, the starter was tiny, the beef was tough, roast potatoes were just potatoes put in an oven for a bit of colour, the Yorkshire puds were cold and crispy. Veg was the highlight and that says a lot, Didn't stay for dessert as the staff were disinterested. Pleasant enough but not wanting to be there. Very expensive for what we got, didn't make a complaint as pointless, not saying I won't go back, I just won't go for Sunday lunch.

Service is really good, as is the setting but unfortunately let down by the food. Overpriced hotel food. We didn’t opt for steaks and perhaps this was our downfall. I ordered the buttermilk chicken burger but this wasn’t cooked fresh and I’m pretty sure was just a frozen ready-made item. At £21 I expect far better. Again, my girlfriends was very poor. Would definitely not recommend - The Round opposite is far better and I’m sure you’d also get a quality steak for a lot less elsewhere too.

We had a roast dinner with roast beef which was awful, the beef was extremely tough and most of the veg was under cooked, for £23 each we were expecting a very good quality main. Kids cheese sandwich was suppose to come with Fries and Veg sticks, instead just came with a small handful of tortilla chips not great for nearly £7 Would suggest improving the quality of the food and ensure you’re serving what is displayed on the menu. Staff are friendly and dining area was tidy which was a positive Royal Oak up the road is my recommendation for Keswick Town centre

Visited the restaurant last Thursday and the food was lovely, nothing was too much trouble for the staff. We got starters and mains and couldn't fault any of it. The food was cooked in a timely manner and plenty of selection. Would 100% recommend.

Really dog friendly and beautiful setting. However rated 3 stars for this experience because firstly; I ordered the bbq pulled burger but it came without the stated panko crusted onion rings and the bun brioche not pretzel as stated. I had to send the first one back because it came smothered in sauce despite request for this to be on the side. Secondly service was also a little lacking. Had to wait around 10mins for wine despite 2 of our friends getting their drinks straight away. Peretti was lovely and zinfandel was nice when it arrived. Also no table check (which I know annoys some people) and no offer of would you like any other sauces etc.... but perhaps this would have been brought if we'd asked. Overall everything was delicious but for £150 and other reviews was expecting a better experience therefore 3/5 stars for us. Visited for a Birthday January 2023.

I'm disappointed with a quality of food for such a high price. It was nice but very average. We ordered medium rare stakes but they looked medium well and too chewy. The chef said it's the 'right temperature for medium rare ' and didn't sort them out for us. Nothing special about the stake combining with the price we paid, therefore I wouldn't recommend.

An average experience. Our drinks order took a long time to get to us and arrived after our main meal was on the table. Nothing to complain about the food though as our steaks were cooked to perfection & the deserts were on point. Unfortunately the slow staff with drinks dragged the experience.

Wine was good and the venue itself was great however I was really disappointed with the Sunday lunch. The vegetables were bland and there was little seasoning and the seasoning that was present was not good. The potatoes were seriously lacking in flavour. I may return if in keswick again but not for the Sunday lunch.

We visited here at the end of our last trip to Keswick and vowed to return. In fact, we returned twice in the same week! The hotel and restaurant were refurbished in the last few years and it has been completed tastefully. However, that needs to be backed by high quality food and service and no need to worry there. On visiting last time we both had the seabass and it was so good, we had it again on our return. It always seems mean to only get one fillet but no such worries here. These are backed up by really tasty new potatoes and Mediterranean vegetables together with a tomato sauce. Every element of the dish tastes fantastic and also complement each other. Forcing ourselves to try something else we had fish pie on our second visit. This can often sound interesting but be bland. Not here, we big chucks of salmon and haddock swum in a tasty cream sauce. Supporting Summer greens complimented the pie well. A final word on the service. As excellent as the food, with special mention to Lanie who is a hard worker and knows the right blend between being professional and friendly. A credit to the restaurant. We look forward our next visit to Keswick and Brasserie 31.
