Glenthorne Country House in South Lakeland

Haven’t been in a couple of years. There used to be a lady who always pleasantly welcomed guests, was busy and good food. Had a takeaway. Place was empty. A young guy took the order robotically. Big order was ready seven minutes late. Yellow flag! Older man gave me the food (the dad?). Had a cold attitude like he was above his job and me. Flights are available to return to China. The food was disgusting. It was all overcooked and had been reheated in a microwave. Pancakes were in plastic bag clearly bought from the supermarket to be reheated. Didn’t bother to take them out the packet. Shu mai was spongy with mushy cabbage leaf. Rice was near mush and hot from a microwave, meat like acid rubber. All one bite and into the bin.

Me and my partner came for lunch on valentine's day. I had a lovely scone with jam and cream, and he had the mozzarella and (something) soup with a ham sandwich. His soup was one of the best I've ever tried! My scone was baked perfectly and paired with quality jam. The prices are not cheap, soup and a sandwich being about £13- but well worth it for a filling meal. I would 100% recommend a visit either for a sweet treat or a savoury bite.

Don't order the Salmon. Nothing wrong with the taste, but quantity was another matter,not enough. I will be leaving hungry. On the plate was a piece of Salmon, one spoonful of spinach and one very small round potato cake. My husband fared better with the Gammon, a much better deal. So I had to sit and wait for him to finish. My meal had taken less than 10 mins to finish.

Hi, I hate doing this kind of thing I came in Saturday evening ordered fish and chips waited 20 minutes which I don’t mind. Got back home. Chips were disgusting and the fish. I don’t even wanna talk about it. I don’t know if it was frozen. The batter was awful. I will not be going again and the only reason I went is because it just reopened so I wanted to try it but if anyone wants fish and chips, please avoid this place. Go somewhere else Because I threw mine in the bin. What a waste of money never again.

What a cracking town pub this is. Since Steve and his team took over just under a year ago joined with an extensive refurb the place has just gone from strength to strength. Whether it’s live sport, karaoke, live music, disco night or just a quiet family drink there’s rarely a week that passes where the George fails to deliver. To top it off it’s probably the cheapest bar in town too. Keep up the good work a credit to the Kendal pub scene.
