Absolutely amazing!!! We came here for dinner and the food did not disappoint! I had the veggie tagine and my boyfriend had the fish and chips and they were both really nice, the service was prompt and the restaurant had a really nice atmosphere! The curry sauce is a must for the fish and chips, it’s really tasty. The sticky toffee pudding was also really nice and a good size! The portions were large. Really friendly staff! We will be back next time we’re visiting the Kendal area!

My wife and I visited with others about 18months back and had forgotten how good it is. We shared a pizza as a starter (we love real pizza) and it was excellent. The mains were delicious and the homemade curry sauce that went with the fish and chips was immense. I had the lemon crème brûlée and it was very very good (could have done with a touch more lemon but would definitely have it again). My wife says the cocktail menu is excellent (I never looked as I was having soft drinks). The staff were friendly, attentive and very good at their job. If you are in the area it’s definitely worth a visit. I would recommend booking.

Lovely countryside pub with a nice welcome and prompt service. 8 of us and straight to mains with an excellent Venison Bourguignon Pie, lovely large Fish and Chips, tasty Chicken Burger, and a flavoursome Veggie Stack. The older children had small Marguerita, and large Ham and Pineapple pizzas, with 2 kids Pepperoni pizzas for the younger ones. For dessert, several had the ice creams and they were very good. The Lemon Brulé was really good. An Affogato Special similarly well received. Would have been 5* but the Sticky Toffee Pudding was a little dry, and at £8.50 had to be spot on. Not the cheapest meal we had but the best during our stay in the area. Highly recommended. Would love to go back in the future.

A lovely pub to visit for dinner. Staff friendly and efficient. Food was amazing. In fact it was so good that we’re returning this evening to sample more of the menu. Pudding was decadent so we shared it. Equally delicious although a bit pricey. A really nice find.

Called by here whilst working in the area and ordered the beef Sunday roast. Everything was spot on lovely crispy potatoes Al dente veg nice Yorkshire pud and lashings of gravy. Beef was plentiful and tender but my only gripe is they don’t serve it pink or at least give you the option to have it pink. Would recommend 👍

The H&H is a wonderful pub/b&b. The food is amazing and the barn annex was a lovely place to stay for a few days rather than a room in the pub itself (we have previously stayed in a room in the pub for one night). They have coped very well with their Covid safety measures and this has not detracted from the welcoming atmosphere. Look forward to my next visit!

Whilst searching out a pub/restaurant during our stay in the Lake District which ticks the box of being dog friendly, the Hare & Hounds at Levens featured high on the list of places to try.Right from the outset, the greeting was warm, welcoming and friendly - definitely setting the tone for our meal as a whole.I decided to try the Ginger, Soy & Sesame Rice Noodle Stir Fry which was tasty in itself, but as with my parents, I asked for char grilled chicken to be added which complimented the dish perfectly. (If I could make a suggestion, please add the chicken as an optional extra to the Stir Fry on the menu).I followed this up with the Kendal Mint Cake Rich Chocolate Torte which was a lovely way to round off the meal. Rich, tasty and not too heavy, it was a real celebration of the local confection.As we had our dog with us, it was at the forefront of our decision that any venue had an area where she could feel comfortable and the downstairs dining area was perfect - especially after a very warm day.The staff were very efficient and attentive and you didn't have to wait too long between courses, but you weren't rushed either - a fine balancing act.As the title implies, the Hare & Hounds is a gem of a restaurant that deserves to be sought out with the reward being a fantastic dining experience.

Duck and pork pate starter with a beautiful chutney. My partner ordered the satay chicken burger and said it was the best burger he’s ever had - homemade satay Sauce and cucumber salsa!

The food is amazing, my husband had Baked Fillet of Cod with a Herb Crumb, and rated it 10/10 which for him is exceptionally high. My Dirty Burger, although impossible to eat with your hands (the stack is huge! Not a complaint!) was lovely and the chips looked and tasted twice cooked as they should be. We look forward to visiting again soon.

Weekend away staying at a nearby caravan site, we always eat at the nearby Strickland Arms. We were disappointed to walk there and find that they were not open. Checked the map and after a little research carried on to the next village to the Hare and Hounds. It’s another 20 min walk or so. It turned out well.... Food was very very good and freshly made. The service was top notch too. Places like this that have made the effort to open and serve us desperate punters deserve to be rewarded. We will 100% return next time we are down in this part of Cumbria.

This is the second time we have been for lunch here in the last two weeks. Luckily the weather has been good for the advertised “Al fresco dining in Costal del Levens”, although there is a heated open fronted cabin if the weather is inclement. We really like the food and beer here and the service is always friendly and attentive. Good things about the menu are the choice - yes choice not just one optIon - for vegetarians and the fact that several dishes come with the option of having a small portion. The chips here are just wonderful. We have had the vegetarian stack and the Mediterranean flatbread on our recent visits and both were very good. Today we also had the sticky toffee pudding (a very generous portion) with gingerbread ice cream (delicious).We can highly recommend the Hare and Hounds at Levens.

Wow. We booked on a Sunday afternoon for an evening meal with covid restrictions in place. We were greeted with a warm smile and shown to our table (sat in bar area with our dog as not permitted in the restaurant area). Throughout the time we were there all service was attentive polite and with a smile. The Sunday menu was varied but we opted for the roast beef and roast pork. Both reasonable portioned meals with excellent cuts of meat and the accompanying veg was perfectly cooked. The selection of veg dishes with the meal was not the norm but they were so tasteful and went with the dishes like bread and butter. When we then followed the meal up with home made sticky toffee with ginger ice cream we did not realise how big a portion we would be served. With the addition of an extra scoop of ice cream they would have each made two large portions on their own. Again the taste and presentation was excellent. If only this pub restaurant was closer to home we would make it our regular but will definitely return before we finish our holiday. If your in the area this is a must to dine at.

Recientemente disfruté de una estadía de cuatro días en Hare and Hounds, una segunda visita en dos años. Una vez más, la comida era muy, muy buena. Bien preparado y bien presentado. Lo mismo ocurre con los desayunos: ¡los mejores huevos revueltos! Este lugar tiene un toque de clase. A esa clase se suma la elección de la música que se reproduce en el comedor. ¡Beth Orton, por el amor de Dios! Las habitaciones son extremadamente cómodas con todos los pequeños extras que hacen que un lugar sea especial, incluso (¡especialmente!) Para Covid. Esperamos volver de nuevo a esta hermosa parte del noroeste de Inglaterra y al H&H.

Tropecé con el pub en línea y reservé una comida. La comida era deliciosa, el personal muy amable. Luego descubrimos que tienen habitaciones y ojalá hubiéramos reservado esto para nuestro alojamiento mientras estábamos en la zona en lugar de donde reservamos. Reservamos una mesa para la noche siguiente. El mismo servicio brillante la segunda noche. A mi marido le encantó su pizza tandoori de pollo.

Segunda estancia en este antiguo pub. Regresó como lo había pasado excelente hace unos años. Me alegro de haberlo hecho tan bien como entonces, incluso con las restricciones de Covid. Me alojé en un anexo razonablemente nuevo, que era más un área autónoma con todas las instalaciones si elegía hacer su propia cocina, pero quería comer en su restaurante, así que no usé nada. Personal muy amable y accesible, siempre dispuesto a ayudar.

Acabo de regresar de una estancia de 4 días en esta pequeña joya de pub. El personal fue muy acogedor a su llegada y explicó todos los cambios actuales en las reglas debido a Covid de una manera realista. El alojamiento era espacioso, cómodo y muy bien cuidado. El suministro de leche fresca en una botella de vidrio de estilo antiguo, té y café de origen local y una nevera pequeña fue un toque muy agradable. La comida era de muy alto nivel y no la comida típica de pub. También se ofrecieron cervezas y licores locales.Todo el personal era muy amable y servicial, al igual que los lugareños. Definitivamente recomendaría este pub de pueblo tranquilo a solo 10 minutos de Kendal

Deberíamos haber reservado pero solo probamos las especificaciones, pero se las arreglaron para encajarnos. Esperaba cosas buenas y pequeñas porciones dados los precios y las descripciones en el menú. Solo me decepcionó una cosa, las porciones. La comida era fantástica y el tamaño de las porciones era perfecto, lo suficiente como para estar lleno sin querer más. Dejando suficiente espacio para un pudín suntuoso. Sin embargo, para estar seguro, reservaría con anticipación porque se llenó muy rápidamente. Definitivamente vale la pena el dinero y una segunda visita.

We visited The Hare and Hounds Wednesday evening for tea with a party of three at approx half six. It seemed quiet from the outside and we telephoned to ensure that they were in fact offering food. We were assured they were and we did a quick check on trip advisor to see that it had good reviews and went inside.

Had a meal for my daughter’s birthday was average nothing special Julie who was working was very friendly and polite and looked clean the other staff had jeans and t shirts on that was to small and looked unsightly and dirty a standard uniform would look much nicer ie black trousers and white shirts when you walk in a pub first impressions count jeans and T-shirt’s isn’t a uniform

Encontré este lugar cuando abrió por primera vez con los propietarios actuales hace años y me encantó. . . . . . . Ámalo aún más ahora. La calidad de la comida era excelente, tuvimos la hamburguesa de pollo, aguacate y salsa de tomate con papas fritas, fue perfecto. . . rollo artesanal local realmente lo hizo! . . . . . vale cada centavo. Genial verlos hacerlo tan bien, el lugar va de fortaleza en fortaleza. La comida en otras mesas parecía igualmente deliciosa. El dueño sigue siendo muy amable. Loos estaban impecables. Muy recomendable. . . . . Es una pena que vivamos a un par de cientos de millas de distancia ahora o estaríamos aquí más a menudo.

We came across this place by compete accident. We were meant to eat at the place near by however, they had some problem with staff and hence why could not serve food till 6 pm. As we have 7 month baby with us we needed to eat sooner. This pub was not only able to accommodate us sooner they are also dog friendly. The owners are very friendly and helpful. They made us feel very welcome and could not be more helpful. The food was amazing. We would definitely recommend this place to everyone.

We visited for lunch, four adults (one in a wheelchair) and the dog! We were all welcomed and found a lovely round table which was great for all of us. The staff were friendly and attentive and we were offered drinks while we decided what to eat. They had a selection of four beers, all brewed in the Lakes, which was really nice. They have a children's menu and light bites for those with a smaller appetite. Our food came quite quickly and the fish and chips are highly recommended!

Booked for Sunday Lunch. Prompt service and very friendly. Tasty and good portions. Enjoyed it a lot. Tasty fish & chips, nice roastbeef and pizza, yummy sticky toffee pudding :) Big choice so everyone can get what they want. Good place to stop after (or before) a walk in the area, easy to get to, just off the dual carriage way, with plenty of parking just across.

Went here for lunch after a very long drive. Kids had homemade pizzas and fish and chips which went down a storm. Adults had sandwiches, ham and celeriac slaw, and tuna and spring onion. Served with salad and coleslaw. Food was yummy and the staff super friendly and chatty. Will be returning for dinner one evening. Reasonably priced too

Great Little Find after a day in the Lakes, Pub is situated just off the main road from Barrow to Kendal / M6. Called in with the wife and 9yr Old Son.

We have enjoyed several visits to this local inn for lunch. It’s hard to put a finger on it but it’s just not up to the usual high standard. I had the chicken breast with asparagus green beans & new potatoes - the veg was lovely but the chicken was dry and tough. My partner had the fish and chips - he too was disappointed. Maybe just a glitch but it’s spoilt our previous high opinion.

We recently called in here for dinner and what a great choice it was. We were staying in a hotel 5 minutes drive away but found the evening menu uninspiring, so on our 3rd night we ventured out to this hamlet and terrific pub.

Hare and Hounds is our favourite plae to eat in the South Lakes area. The food is delicious - pizza better than any Italian restaurant for miles around! The puddings are amazing and we always share as they are large :) Staff always attentive and knowledgeable. Choice of places to sit from outside (Weather permitting), cosy pub or light and airy restaurant area.

My hubby and I called in here for a meal after a holiday in the Lakes. A lovely traditional pub with a varied menu. I had sea bass which was cooked to perfection and beautifully presented. Hubby had the dirty burger which was huge and obviously hand made, non of your mass produced rubbish , it was served with proper chips and a delicious homemade coleslaw. We had chocolate torte with blood orange sorbet and sticky toffee pud with gingerbread ice cream for dessert , both of which were to die for. All food was served with a friendly professional manner. I’ve had a lot of pub meals in my time but this was up there with the best of them. The chefs have a creative flare that you don’t get in most pubs, the food has finesse and distinction and when you team this with the traditional pub with a modern twist it makes for a very pleasurable experience. We will return.

Stopped in for dinner on the way back home from vacation. The woman behind the bar was very friendly and kind. The menu choice was good and current. He prices were fair and the food was delicious!! Had a couple of drinks as well. We sat outside and it was really nice. The grounds for the restaurant is neat and clean. Lots of places to sit. It’s a wonderful restaurant!!

Well I won't be going back ,the food was awful ...the tomato ,basil and pesto soup had a horrible sharp but sugary sweet taste...the sandwich that came with it had the cheapest bright yellow " butter "on. ,a maximum of one slice of ham and the cheapest mustard . My 4 year old grandson could have made a better sandwich ! My husband had pie which had hardly any meat in it and the gravy was unusual tasting ( to say the least ) and sweet . I've had far superior microwave meals ! The toilets which were always an asset to the pub had gone downhill too.

As soon as we walked through the door the staff were welcoming and very attentive. The food was lovely and good value for money. We sat outside which is a great little sun trap for those rare sunny days in the Lake District. We would high recommend and we will definitely be back .

We have been here many times over the years and love it. Dropped in for a drink last week. Wooooah! £9.80 for a Prosecco and a pint of cider shandy is the same price as a pint of cider - about £7. So by that maybe a pint of lemonade is also £7? I’m sure many people stop for a drink while walking in the beautiful lakes but next time we might find another stopping point. Although living in the North East maybe we just have cheaper pubs up here??!!

Cold and smelled of dogs on arrival. Waited ages to be served and the waitress was more interested on who was at the bar rather than taking our table order for 10 people. Food was very salty and the steak pie in particular was terrible. Every meal as standard/basic or frozen style food. The whole place is run down and miserable. We went off trip advisor reviews as well on a visit to the area and wished we hadn’t. Go to The Pheasant Inn down the road at Allithwaite instead that was lovely food and fab service.
