Copper Fells Bar & Brasserie in Allerdale

Superb service from Alan and Michael a credit to the company friendly polite and professional, i reserved a table with Alan earlier on day as daughter likes a quieter seating spot and was greeted by Michael when went for meal at 5pm, lovely comfy booth seating and the place was clean and inviting ,ordered from menu and snack sheet and it didn’t take long to arrive,food hot and delicious and drinks spot on, in fact food plenty we got more than we thought so got doggy box to take back to lodge.very full and overall great service all round.Thank you.

Superb food and lovely family friendly atmosphere. Roast beef has tasted even better than it looked. Will be definitely visiting again if in the area.

We visited whilst staying in one of the lodges for a long weekend. The first time just for a drink and the bar area is lovely with comfy seating and dog friendly. On our second visit we had booked for food. Unfortunately, the food was disappointing which was a change from when my mum had enjoyed a meal there the previous year. The roast dinner was average but came with new potatoes not roasted potatoes. The gravy was lovely, I ordered the lasagne and the cheese on top was burnt all over, the mince was flavourless and dry. The staff were great about it and took it away, offered an alternative and took off the bill. We wouldn’t visit for food again but would still come to enjoy the bar area,

Service extremely poor food not great won't use again. Waited nearly an hour for food other people being served before us even though we was in before them my husband food wasn't cooked properly so had to go back which meant he had to eat on his own. December 2024

Very clean restaurant and bar with a nice ambiance and well looked after toilets. We were a party of six and had a window seat with a pleasant view. The staff were friendly and helpful, just one minor issue with service in that one if the waiters kept leaning over one of our party to clear dishes which wasn’t ideal. The food was overall nice enough, though my nut roast was rock hard and either over or undercooked, however we did let them know and they were good enough to take this meal off the bill. I thought the meals were slightly overpriced for the size of the portions, however I guess you pay for the convenience of the restaurant being on the site. Overall a pleasant restaurant with great staff and I would go back here again, however do make sure you book in advance as it is always very busy.

Visited with the family last night , food was lovely but the service was outstanding All the staff were amazing , but one stood out in particular , I didn’t get his name but he said he was new but you would never have guessed he was fantastic

Staying at the resort at the minute...just had our meal delivered...everything hot and tasty...fish and chips..chicken melt..veg pizza and haloumi salad, eat from the restaurant and support the staff in these worrying times !

We stayed at the Keswick Reach Lodge for a long weekend and came here for dinner on the final night. We'd had great service from everyone and the waitress was lovely, but the manager who showed us to the table was absolutely miserable! He didn't make us feel welcome, and gave another couple a discount as they were staying in a lodge, but didn't offer it to us? The drinks were OK, and the food was also unfortunately average. My other half ordered a burger and I had a pie - the filling was nice but the pastry was too thick. The gravy was bland. The burger was a little too greasy.Disappointed with our last meal for the weekend, and if we stayed again we would definitely rather save the money and cook dinner ourselves!

We ate here twice whilst staying at Keswick Reach. On both occasions the food was good with a decent selection of meals for 2 adults and a 3 year old. The service was excellent and we found it to be good value for money

We visited for Sunday roast. The food was really lovely but the portion size disgraceful for £12.95. 1 new potato, 2 roast potatoes, 3 slices of carrot, spoonful of red cabbage & green beans. Asked the lad to feed back my complaint to the kitchen. I know he didn't. (Well no one came to discuss or apologise anyway) Wish we had gone to a local pub instead. A shame as Copper Fells is lovely. Was almost like they were rationing food as they were running low on roast dinners. Menu states 'new potatoes' maybe best adjust that to potato !! Will leave feedback for the park as well. This needs to be looked at or people will just visit local eateries.

I loved this place, the atmosphere was fantastic. A massive shout out to our waiter Adam who gave fantastic service. The food was great and arrived as you would expect on a timescale from ordering to eating, I recommend trying the Steak and Mushroom Pudding, very tasty.

We ate here when we visited in January, (8 adults). We were impressed by the food. Good portions and not dear either. Would definately recommend. I had the curry which was really nice. If you have a small appetite, maybe just stick to a main meal.

I had prawn and crayfish tagliatelle. My parents had gammon steak and lamb shank. All amazing, friendly quick service. Sunday roast was ok but you didn't get a lot.

Had Friday night dinner which was fab. Had Sunday lunch which was excellent. There was 8 of us but the service was exceptional and the food outstanding both times.Great choice of drinks even a Costa on site.

Mi pareja y yo cenamos aquí durante nuestro breve descanso en el Lodge Lodge en el que se encuentra. La cena del domingo fue excelente y el menú de precio fijo fue una gran oferta (2 platos para 16,45). A un precio muy razonable y el personal era extremadamente amable. Definitivamente lo recomiendo.

Staying at the lodges for my birthday weekend, we arrived early on the Friday so decided to sit in the bar and have a drink and bite to eat. We had pre-booked the restaurant for evening meals before our arrival.Friday lunch :Prawns & Crayfish SandwichCumberland Sausage Toasted Ciabatta, with side order of chunky chips (to share)Lots of prawns & crayfish in the sandwich and lovely hot sausage ciabatta with large portion of chunky chips, which two of us shared (there was more than enough). There was plenty of prawn & crayfish filling in the sandwich and excellent value for money.Friday Evening:Cumberland & Black Pudding Terrine; Braised Cumbrian Lamb ShankSmoked Salmon; Braised Cumbrian Lamb ShankBraised Cumbrian Lamb Shank; Rich Chocolate TorteDon't expect small portions here. The Terrine was a large starter. All three of us had the lamb shank and the meat just fell off the bone and was tender and juicy. Saturday Evening:Beer battered Cod fillet with chips; Selection of Chees & biscuits (no blue)10oz local Rump Steak; Strawberry Sundae10oz local Rump Steak; Chocolate & Hazelnut BrownieSteak was cooked to perfection. Very good Cod. Large cheese & biscuits.Sunday Lunch:Black Pudding & Goat’s Cheese Stack with Bacon Gravy; Roast Topside of Cumbrian Beef with Yorkshire Pudding Crispy Whitebait; Roast Leg of Cumbrian Fell Bred Lamb with Yorkshire PuddingFreshly made Soup of the Day & crusty Bread; Roast Leg of Cumbrian Fell Bred Lamb with Yorkshire PuddingStarters were large, the whitebait was not as big as some of the food portions we have had here but just the right size. We were asked when our order was taken if we wanted Yorkshire pudding with our lamb and we Both said yes! The Yorkies were absolutely enormous and took over half the plate! We All had two large thick slice of meat plus veg, roasties & new potato, with a delicious gravy.Overall - superb meals every time. Staff were welcoming, friendly, chatty and polite and a credit to the resort. On arrival we were given money off vouchers. We used the voucher for a free bottle of wine and 20% off the bill (two people ordering two courses).Restaurant was busy and would recommend booking.

Cenamos en el restaurante para mi cumpleaños, la mesa estaba decorada con pancartas a la llegada y el personal era amable. Ambos tuvimos bistec con patatas fritas y verduras que estaba delicioso y una excelente relación calidad-precio. El menú tiene una buena selección de diferentes alimentos para elegir. El pub es acogedor y hogareño, un ambiente agradable y relajado a un precio razonable. También tenían el fútbol por el que mi compañero estaba contento. Definitivamente lo recomendaría y volveremos a visitar en nuestra próxima visita al refugio Keswick Lodge?

Pleasant bar and restaurant which was clean, good atmosphere, food fair and staff friendly on the whole

This was our 3rd visit to keswick reach and restaurant, on the whole the food was very good, and the staff very pleasant, we had booked a table in the bar area so we could bring my daughters dog, this table was was reserved a week before our visit our food order was taken quickly and all seemed well however we were then told that there would be a 40 minute wait.when the food finally came it was enjoyable,so my wife and daughter decided to have lunch the following day in the restaurant when they arrived they were told that the restaurant was not open for lunch food was only being served in the bar area reach.Keswick reach has high standards for the lodges it would seem standards have slipped slightly in the restaurant.

We stayed in a lodge and ate here twice, food was lovely and not to expensive for being onsite. You got plenty food also. Only negative is the woman working behind bar not very friendly and made us feel unwelcome, shame because other than that everything is fantastic about the place.

Me and my partner came here whilst we were staying at the lodges and I wasn’t very impressed. The service was great and the staff lovely, however I didn’t enjoy our food much. We shared a garlic bread starter which was okay, I ordered a pepperoni pizza which wasn’t nice, it was very greasy and I left half of it. For the price we paid (over £50 for 2 people) I wouldn’t come back here again. I could get much nicer food for a much better price elsewhere.

we had 3 meals in here whilst we stayed each one was lovely,1st meal was steak cooked just how I like it medium rare,2nd was lamb shoulder for sunday dinner probably the best dish of the 3,3rd was Cumberland sausage,the gravy on all 3 is to die for,veg cooked perfectlymost of all the staff were 1st class,the lady on the Thursday night who normally works in the spa was particulary outstanding her service was spot on brilliant character friendly and chatty,its a very good place to spend your eveing.

Fantastic food, brilliant service, lovely surroundings. I'm a vegetarian and there was plenty of choice. Waffle dessert is the best dessert I have ever eaten.

Been staying at Keswick Reach Lodges for 5 days and we have ate dinner at The Copper Fells every evening and its been fantastic. The food was beautiful and the staff were very friendly and helpful. 5 stars from me and my partner!

We came when staying at Keswick Reach for the end of our holiday. The bar area and restaurant is furnished to a high specification. The menu is fairly extensive and offers a wide variety, including traditional English to Brasserie food. Specials are also available and two of our group tried the special ‘Eggs Hemingway’ to start which was a decent portion. My oatcakes with salmon and goat’s cheese made a nice change of flavours.

We booked a table for our first night staying at Keswick Reach Lodges and we were not disappointed.

Ate here while staying on site. Service very good, menu was well balanced and there were a few specials offered as well.

Staying at Keswick Reach so we decided to have a meal in their restaurant. Not an extensive menu but a varied selection. Food was very good, service was excellent. We had a table by the window so lovely views towards Skiddaw.

Visited the Copper Fells on our last evening staying at the Keswick Reach retreat. Can’t recommend it enough. The staff were amazing, in particular Laura and Claire who were both lovely & friendly. I had the steak, ale and mushroom pudding which was delicious. Best gravy I’ve ever tasted !! I followed this with the sticky toffee pudding which was as equally delicious and had a fabulous caramel/toffee sauce. Wish we hadn’t left it until the last evening to try out this amazing food because we’d have visited more than just the once !!

We were staying at the lodge retreat for two weeks over the Easter break. As the weather was fantastic most of the time, we tended to eat out, but on one occasion, we had a lazy day and decided to try the food here. We didn't make a booking, but as expected when we turned up around 7pm on a Tuesday night, the restaurant was fully booked. We were however quite happy to sit in the bar area as it was possible to order off the restaurant menu there. I was with my 3 year old soon too, so was probably a bit quieter there for him too. The food was fantastic, I had the Thai Green curry and my some had a tomato pasta which he loved. Service was excellent and we were completely full after 2 courses. It was a shame we didn't get to try some of the other dishes on the menu, but hope to be back again soon. Thanks again!

Whilst staying at Keswick reach lodges, decided to have dinner on our arrival on the Saturday night, however fully booked so chose to have dinner on the Sunday evening instead. Lovely meal, we had the Cumbria roast beef which was very tender, served with fresh vegetables and roast & new potatoes. Followed by the chocolate and raspberry torte served with orange sorbet -delicious! Great service and reasonably priced. Would definitely recommend.

Stayed at the Keswick reach lodges & decided to try the onsite restaurant fells bar, we were asked to make a reservation on our first night however upon arrival for 7pm we found we were the only ones in the restaurant that entire night. Visited with my partner & we had between us the pheasant and steak with desserts, wouldn’t say the food was great little but average especially when there is so much choice if you venture a little further.

Food is good however we did find plastic in our starter which we were provided a refund for. Staff were very friendly and dogs are welcome in the bar.

Our first evening at Keswick Reach Retreat. Copper Fells Restaurant had great service, huge portions and good food. Reasonably priced. Pheasant Breast and Mushroom Steak & Ale Pudding - yummy, no complaints

The first night we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. The food was cooked to perfection and the strawberry sundae was amazing.The service was excellent. Wish we could say the same for the second night. The waiting on staff were still excellent but the food was a bit of a let down. We asked if there was a different chef that evening but the restaurant manager assured us it was the same chef. I felt she was quite off hand when we complained I showed her the photo of the strawberry sunday I took the night before and the "childs one " I was served the following evening, her words were our chef is rather busy I will see that he is more consistent. When I asked where the meringue was as the night before there was plenty she told me that there was a piece down the bowl also when we sent the steak back as we asked for it medium it came back very rare she seemed rather annoyed with us ( she certainly does not believe in the customer always being right ! .) If you read all my previous reviews you will see I do to like to make negative comments but, I do feel this needs a mention as we were very disappointed. It will not spoil the vac we will return I just hope the manager will become more professional in her attitude. Thank you to the rest of the staff who made us feel very welcome.

Saw sign for Keswick Reach and went in for a look around found they had a restaurant open to the public. As soon as we entered we where really looked after food was exerlent service first class all was good, very expensiveley fitted out and the bill was not a big shock. Will definitely return.

This was part of the Keswick Retreat resort and I was not expecting much but now I know how Klitschko felt when Joshua hit him with “that” uppercut! I was blown away with the quality of the food. We ate there on the 1st and last night of our stay but wish we’d went more. I’ve added some food p**n below. The meals were.

We were the only people in the restaurant and a few of the previous reviews were concerning. Don’t be put off. Very friendly staff & a beautiful Sunday Lunch more than made up for the awful weather that day.

I was staying at Keswick reach with some friends and visited here on Saturday night. It was meant to be a birthday meal. They did put a banner up and a balloon on the table which was nice.

We’re currently staying on Keswick lodge retreat and visited copper fells yesterday evening. Due to the bad weather we were unable to venture far and decided last minute to eat in the restaurant, as we were staying in the lodges didn’t think this would be an issue. We arrived in the restaurant at 5.30pm and when we asked if we could have a table for 5 adults (we also had our baby and dog with us) we were told they were fully booked however everywhere looked pretty empty (I appreciate there may have been more booings later) as we had our dog with us we only wanted a table in the bar area and eventually the waitress reluctantly said we could have a table in the bar area under the tv if we were to place our order in the next 5 minutes. We decided what we wanted quickly and went to place our order at the bar. The bar staff seemed to be harassed and made us feel like an inconvenience for being there! Overall we felt very tense and on edge as if we shouldn’t have been there. Whilst we were waiting for our food a waitress then came over and without asking turned the tv volume up high because the rugby final was on which as a result woke our 4 month old baby up!

Really good service. Food was lovely and a good choice. Just a tad expensive I thought. Dogs are welcome in the bar area, and you can also sit outside

Visited this lovely restaurant 3 days in a row as we were spending the weekend in a lodge on the Keswick reach retreat . My elderly parents , one a wheelchair user , my husband and I were all fortunate enough to sample the delights of this excellent eatery. The staff were so friendly and very attentive especially Claire who looked after us over the 3 days . The food was superb as was the service . I can't think of anything that I could complain about . Good selection of drinks , tasty food and totally relaxing atmosphere , would definitely recommend.

Really nice food, special offers on blackboard as well as main menu. Not the cheapest food but worth the cost.

My husband and I stayed at keswick reach lodge for 4 nights and ate in copper fells twice. The food on both occasions was lovely and good size portions. The staff in the restaurant were all friendly and service was very quick. Sadly we never had room for pudding so didn't get to sample them.

We have just returned from 4 nights at the Keswick Lodge Retreat and ate in the Copper Fells Bar on our first night. When we arrived at check in we asked if there were any free tables but were instructed to go and check in the restaurant itself. Here we were greeted by Maya who couldn't have been more friendly & helpful. The restaurant was booked up but she said we could sit in the bar area and eat which was fine with us. Maya took our order at the bar and served our drinks quickly. The food portions were huge and we couldn't finish our curries! Very tasty and served quickly and hot. We had a lovely evening the bar area - thanks to Maya for being so smiley and welcoming!

We’re avid fans of Keswick Reach and have stayed a number of times since it opened, this was a family break but having bad service and food before, I was cautious to try again, however, my daughter insisted we try again.

We were staying at Keswick lodge retreat and booked a meal here for our sons 9th birthday. When we booked we were told that they would make it extra special for him.

Food was tasty and well presented, the menu was a bit limited as there were no vegan options on it and some dishes were unseasonable, good choice of drinks but all a bit pricey,

Food was brilliant and the service even better. Our waitress Maya was lovely and did everything to make it a pleasant evening.

AVoid here - Keswick is a short drive with listening of food options so make the short trip there over eating here.

After booking onsite for a long weekend, we booked a table for our first night. The waitress was so lovely and friendly, I wish I knew her name to give her a special mention. We ordered nibbles, starters and a main as we were both starving and expected them to come in that order. Another waitress brought out our starters of black pudding and ham terrine for my husband and goats cheese with mushrooms for myself. As we weren't expecting these we sent them away but our original waitress came over, apologised and said they'd all be done together and our nibbles of bread with assorted butters and whitebait came out also. Whilst the food looked and tasted lovely, it was overwhelming to be faced with a table of food. She said she would speak to the chef to ensure it wouldn't happen again. I don't know if this impacted our main dishes but when my husbands steak pudding came, it was very dry, as though it had been cooked/standing for too long. It did look impressive though. My meal of chicken curry survived the wait. We couldn't manage a dessert. We would definitely visit again but hope things come out with better timing.

Good food. Service good. Beautiful surroundings Solo artist candy Hotten was excellent. Thoroughly worth a visit

We booked a table for our first night staying at Keswick Reach Lodges and we were not disappointed. We were greeted by Claire who was very friendly and great at Customer Service.

Such a great little place on site at the retreat. So handy for when you want a nice meal and drinks without having to drive anywhere. All of us enjoyed our food 100%. With no complaints. My boyfriend was really impressed with the prawn risotto. The steak was excellent too, the table was silent because we was all too busy enjoying our food. Staff were also very friendly and efficient.

Good 😊 service good food really enjoyed the food 🥘 would recommend it as it was a good experience all round

Lovely meal me and and my husband went for dinner at 6 on Friday evening , service was prompt and all the staff were attentive ! My husband had cod and chips and I went for chicken linguine , which was delicious very big portions we couldn't fit in pudding which was a shame very nice home cooked food lovely end to a lovely stay a Keswick reach

Fantastic food and service thank you. We are here on two occasions great both times. Fresh, healthy and definitely home cooked. The staff were very helpful and friendly.

We have just visited for an evening meal and and the food and service were both excellent! I was dubious about going here after reading other reviews but would highly recommend it. Very handy being on site as well.

Had an evening meal here which was lovely. I had the Black Pudding Scotch Egg and the Sweet Potato, Cauliflower and Chick Pea Curry and both were lovely. The service was friendly and attentive. Would certainly recommend.

Visited the restaurant twice during our short stay, first visit was fine, food very good etc. Second visit was a disaster, front of house were excellent but the chef obviously had other ideas, 2 of the starters ordered weren’t available but we weren’t informed until some time later, one of the mains arrived without veg & the steak pie had rock hard pastry, the beer was ok lol.

Plus side: excellent manageress with exceptional customer service, good food with large portions. Dog friendly bar area. Downside: unpleasant girl behind bar, overcharged drinks, no apology, needed manageress to sort out. Limited number of tables both in bar and dining room.

Visited with the family twice whilst staying in one of the lodges. First visit-pleasant, friendly service, food acceptable with no complaints although it would be nice to see a salad on the menu. Second visit-completely different, the waitress Megan appeared completely disinterested to the point of being quite rude, my husband and I were both quite shocked by her attitude. The service was slow, food this time sub standard. My chicken pasta lacked both chicken and pasta but plenty sauce and my husband said his burger was dry and the coleslaw had ‘seen better days’ I asked one of the servers if there was a different chef working that night and was surprised she said no. To top it off, the first evening we reserved we were asked ‘any special occasion?’ there wasn’t but the second night we reserved we did tell them it was our son’s 10th Birthday tea-this was completely ignored and he was a little disappointed. We’d definitely return to the lodges as they are outstanding but probably not eat in the restaurant again.

Had a lovely Sunday lunch, service and food was excellent as a party of 6. Returned on Weds as a party of 8. Sat to a table with no offer of water as we had on the previous visit sat for about 30 mins waiting for our order to be taken (we had already decided as the menu is in the welcome pack of the lodge). The food eventually came after another wait with no mention of the delay. The 1st meal was nothing liked we had ordered so was taken away and nothing mentioned for a while when we were told the order had been input wrong and it would follow... it came about the same time as the others had finished. Being a typical Brit I do not complain but felt the need to, I asked the manager for the bill and raised by complaint, It was like she did not want to take the comments I were making and said "did you like it when it came" not in a nice way and I said "no" the risotto was stodgy, she then said she would knock it off the bill and walked away with no further discussion to be had. It was on the bill the young waitress brought so i sent it back and had a revised one raised. Maybe the manager could do with some customer service training?

Thouroughly enjoyed our only meal at the Copper Fell, would definately recommend. There was 4 of us for the meal and we all had something different and we all thought our own meals were fantastic.

We had lunch in the restaurant whilst staying in the lodges last week. The restaurant is lovely looking and clean. We only had sandwiches for dinner but they were nice. It also wasn’t too pricey to say it’s on site. The only thing that wasn’t brilliant was the lady serving us, she didn’t really say anything which came off a bit rude and it’s not like she was too busy as we were the only people in the place. We would use the restaurant again when we return next time.

Visited over the valentines period booking a table, late evening. When we arrived to the front desk we were rudely greeted by Carol and taken to our table with very little chat, we were literally ushered in and quickly forgotten about. We ordered our drinks and food and again her attitude was rather poor as if she did not want us to be there. Our starters arrived, presentation very poor whilst flavour was non existent. That can also be said for the main course; lamb was relatively nice but very processed almost microwaveable and the sides also very plain. Also ordered the chicken pasta which was very bland. The chicken was cut into perfect cubes with no flavour and of a hard rubbery texture. When asked mid meal about our meals the staff could not stick around long enough to hear our complaints. When they collected our plates the chicken pasta was virtually untouched left to be returned Carol yet again asked why the meal had been left, when we stated it was disgusting she stated sternly that we could have had them replaced and should have said something earlier whilst walking away. However we knew already from a nearby customer that the kitchen appliances had all been switched off for cleaning and therefore our meals could not be replaced! We were made to pay approximately £60 for 2 starters, 2 mains and 2 drinks for virtually disgusting food (incl one meal left untouched) and appalling service! Would not visit again, it is a shame the quality of the bar & brasserie could not reflect that of the lodges!

We had a lovely meal here on valentine night. The place wasn’t that busy. The food we had was nice and the staff friendly and attentive. There was live music in the bar which was nice. It’s a nice place plenty on the menu.

Our family group booked in for Sunday Dinner whilst staying at the Lodge.

As regular guests at Keswick Reach I have completed a separate review for our stay.

First impressions the pub looks great just exactly what you want from a pub in the lakes. We were the first people in there for a meal so promptly sat down with our order taken. As around 4 other couples came into the empty restaurant we were slightly surprised that they were all sat directly around us as in uncomfortably close considering the rest of the restaurant was empty. The food itself was decently priced however the chips definitely tasted like frozen bagged ones from a supermarket which was slightly disappointing. Burger itself was nice however and the risotto I am told was also nice and creamy. Overall to be fair with a few tweaks could easily have hit the 4/5 mark

The food here is overpriced for what you get. Was expecting better quality food for the price. My partner order gammon steak, chips and peas, the chips where out of a bag and not home cooked like you would expect and the gammon thin and poor quality. Disappointed in the food. Good friendly service untill we complained about the food

The furnishings here are new and modern and no complaints there. The food is good but not great. Prices a little on the high side but not terrible considering it the lakes.

We had Christmas dinner and it was excellent as was the service. Would be very happy to do this again.

Not bad for an onsite restaurant. Had an enjoyable meal. Had to book a table for 5 30, had wanted to book for a later slot. The restaurant was nearly deserted until after 7pm. Service slightly slow but the waitress were friendly. Food warm and filling. Enough choice in the menu for all 6 off us.

Visited here a few times on our stay and loved it. Loved eating in a friendly warm place. Staff friendly and helpful. Not over priced. Food lovely. Will be visiting again.

Visited this restaurant for Sunday lunch. Informed that booking was essential however restaurant was not busy! We had Beef and Chicken Sunday lunch, portion size small however tasty. Food price high but as expected for onsite restaurant. Restaurant area lovely and staff very pleasant. Would probably return when staying at Keswick Reach.

We had dinner here twice whilst staying at Keswick Reach. Not a large variety but a good variety and generous portions.

Advised to book as gets busy. So did. After travelling for a few hours thought lets keep it simple and eat on site. Was asked if any special occasion. Yes. Anniversary.

Stayed at the Keswick Reach Lodge Retreat and had dinner in the Copper Fells Restaurant. Good food and excellent service but table layout could be better to cater for parties of 4. Good selection on menu but crayfish was not available on nights we were there, Overall well worth a visit.

Just arrived back at our lodge after a meal at the Copper Fells restaurant.

Service terrible even on a quiet evening. Entered with drinks, glasses still sat on our table 3 hours later. Ordered, very fast service. Mains arrived burnt but nobody did a check back for 20 minutes. When we eventually got an acknowledgement, the dishes were replaced but we had to wait for a further half hour. When finished, we asked for 2 coffees, an Amaretto and a brandy. We received the coffees but 2 brandy’s. I sent one brandy back, obviously and the girl came back to say they had no Amaretto ..... why not tell me this in the first place. Bill was also wrong. Overall, terrible food and service. Shame as the park itself is faultless

advised to book a table as restaurant does get very busy, not disappointed at all with food or service. Table for 7 each with different choice of food no complaints all with decent sized portions, what more do you want?

The food was lovely and reasonably priced. Lovely views of the wooded part of the park and really enjoyed it.

Lots on the menu and all looks delicious. Are here on two nights and service and ambience was lovely. You do need to book. Recommended

We had a stay over and a meal with work in the restaurant and the staff were superb and couldn't do enough to help. The food was lovely and the location & interior are pretty amazing.

Food very tasty, staff friendly and attentive, location great. We have stayed in the lodges here a number of times and eaten at the restaurant in quite a few occasions. The site is fantastic on both setting and standard of presentation, and the bar and restaurant compliment that. My only suggestion would be a better selection of real ales, even if only bottled. Excellent!

We stayed in a cabin for four nights and ate in here twice, but in the bar only as we had a dog with us.

We visited on a Monday night whilst staying at the Retreat (i've done a seperate review for that as I don't think its fair for the overall stay to be put down a rating because of the restaurant).

We ate in the Copper Fells twice during our stay at Keswick reach, once off the evening menu and once for Sunday lunch. In my opinion the food was excellent, there was a good choice in both instances and what we received was very tasty. As far as we thought the prices of both the food and drink was very fairly priced, and exactly what we would expect to pay for what we had.

If you have a dog you can eat in the Bar dining area. Book as this area is small and fills up in the evening.

We had booked a table for my wife and I for Saturday 29th April. Unbeknown to me my wife had told them I would be celebrating my 65th birthday on May 1st. We were shown to our table which was bedecked with Happy Birthday banners and other bits and pieces which I thought was very kind of the staff to do. Our main waitress for the night was a lovely ladt called Maia who looked after incredibly well. The food was absolutely delicious and the service first rate. To top it all half way through the meal I was presented with a bottle of fizz courtesy of the restaurant. Can thoroughly recommend this restaurant for good food and excellent sevice. A great night.
