Crosscroft Takeaway in Eden

The people who run this B&B obviously reserve their charm for customers for the B&B - woebetide anyone popping in for a sandwich or cup of tea and doesn't stop to spend enough money. A group of 9 of us walking the 20 miles from Shap to Kirkby Stephen stopped en-route as one of our group had forgotten their sandwiches and this was the only place for miles. Firstly when ordering the sandwich he was asked if that was 'all' that he was ordering and if we didnt want teas and coffees etc. Then some of us used the toilet and sat round waiting for the sandwich to be made and also waited for a friend to sort out the plasters on their feet. As requested by the owner some of us that had used the toilet to put a donation in the charity tin - which we did. We were just about to leave when the other owner came out and shouted at us for 5 minutes giving us some 'feedback' on how awful we were for using the toilet, sitting round in their driveway and basically not purchasing enough goods. I appreciate it must have been annoying us using the toilet - but if you don't want people to use it don't advertise it on your signs or ask people to pay (I quite happily have would and I did donate to the charity tin). So here's my feedback - for those walking the 20 miles from Shap to Kirkby - you are too early in the day for people to stop for teas and coffees - and you know what - if I'd met anyone coming the other way I'd have told them not to bother due to rudeness and anger we encoutered.

Overly expensive inside area. A haven for gobby drivers doing trailer changes all night. At least the thieves do their best not to wake you while they steal your trucks load.

Really disappointing dinner. Starters at best mediocre and uninspired, presentation and dressing off point . Steak overcooked to the point of being grey and as tough as old boots, chips under seasoned. The one star is for the fact that waiting staff are pleasant. We are staying in the hotel, and had been looking forward to what sounded a promising menu. In reality, the meal was very poor- especially for a restaurant in a hotel of this calibre (and price category).
