café HNW in Allerdale

Our first visit to Rathlin Island and of course we availed of The Hungry Seal! The food was absolutely amazing, we were in chippy heaven. The chips are probably the best I've ever had and the battered sausages to die for! The other half had the haddock supper and claimed it was the best he's ever had. Decent portions, the price is up there but not much different than your average chippy to be fair. The girls were lovely and had the food ready in good time. We would take a trip back to the island just for another feed at the Hungry Seal lol 10/10 for us! (Not my picture, found in Google search)

Overhyped. Staff are very nice, very welcoming, but the food was over hyped by friends and family from my point of view. My basic burger tasted very off putting, and my girls and mates burger was mediocre at best. Not worth the money for food.

Friendly warm welcome and service and really yummy pancake stack ( bacon sausage cheese) with french toast topper and a home made salt beef bagel hit the spot as did the Bloody Mary (easy on the hot sauce! ) and quality apple juice.

A fantastic experience from the minute you walk through the door Greeted by a fantastic front of house who immediately made us feel very welcome Food was absolutely delightful, also a great choice of drinks All staff were fantastic Cannot recommend this place highly enough Looking forward to a return visit next time I an in Keswick

We have been here many times and always enjoy beautifully cooked food, well presented by lovely staff. This time was no different, the food was excellent but we were a bit disappointed by the menu reverting to how it was when the restaurant opened when it seemed as if it didn't know what type of food it was meant to be. It is now split into Food Menu described as tapas style, Sharing (which is obvious), and Chef's Specialty : Small Plates. I fail to see the difference between small plates and tapas style and this is not helped by the fact that some of the small plates are bigger than others. It all adds up to making the customer confused, so I hope by the time we come back that they see sense and revert back to 'small plates'. However, we did enjoy the food and the atmosphere etc etc.
