Oscars Restaurant @ Abbey House in Barrow-in-Furness

We had the seasonal soup and beef Sunday dinner, both lovely, service was excellent

Food was spot on everything was delicious. Service wasn't the best, had my steak dropped off at the table with no sauce and no steak knife, had to wait 4-5 minutes for these to be brought to the table. No check backs were done. No atmosphere here, some background music would be nice

Lovely place to dine,food generally good, excellent service

Amazing food Risotto cheese and onion ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Fish and chips delicious as well we tried several dishes all was nice

Waited a long time for meal Whilst others served before us Restaurant was not busy Food when it came Starter was OK though a little cold probably due to wait I guess and mains were not worth the wait I'm afraid This is a nice Hotel but feel Restaurant does not match May be we picked a wrong night Who knows but We won't be picking another night to try

Very friendly staff and food was amazing

Had a lovely afternoon lunch with friends service and food was excellent

Amazing service⭐️⭐️ ...staff were excellent ⭐️⭐️

Well thought out interior layout that caters for several parties/groups at the same time with clashing. Very calm, efficient and friendly staff. Tasty food. A very enjoyable experience. Thanks.

Food was really good. Shame there wasn't a set (festive )menu for the evening as the lunchtime one was extremely reasonable.

Very nice lunch, good service and pleasant surroundings

Absolutely first class service 👏

Very good service and very good food. We enjoyed the starter (chicken liver) a lot! Gammon was also very juicy and delicious. Highly recommend!

Great service good food good price

Excellent Sunday lunch in a beautiful location

Was so good to get out and eat some quality food 🙂

Me and my husband came on the 6/5/23. Perfect from start to finish. Food was cooked to perfection and very tasty, champagne and cocktails afterwards went down a treat. Staff very professional and friendly. We have been looking for somewhere special like this and will definitely return.

Steak burger was just warm and dry fries were cold service was slow bar staff were rude when I asked for another flavour crisp there was some sort of music banging below our room 5 of us went for breakfast this morning they brought 4 people's breakfast to the table they forgot mine so I told the manager but they just carried on serving other people and left me sat there this is the worst place to eat and over priced terrible place I will never eat or stay here again after my experience and we booked 3 rooms !

Brilliant food, service and night here, couldnt do enough for you, staff so amazing

Always a nice place to visit and probably the best hotel in the area

Exceptional service and the food was excellent couldn't have asked for a better evening.

Went on Christmas Eve. Menu only the usual evening menu. In the past, there was a different menu especially for Christmas which made it feel more Christmasy. Food was very good but the service could have been better.

Fantastic place and great service.

Lovely food, but not enough of it. Very slow, chaotic service. Stunning venue.

Service was good,with a good atmosphere,but the food portions are very small.ok for people with small appetites,but no extra vegetables in Turin's on the table.

Good quality food is downgraded by pub style service and poorly trained staff, a shame really

We ate early on a Sunday evening and we're seated quickly. The service was very quick and the staff friendly and chatty. The cauliflower steak was delicious , my partner had the beef and was equally as Delicious 😊 couldn't fault anything.

The food was adequate overly salted and overpriced for what it was, the staff were friendly and efficient and the atmosphere was alittle stilted. The hotel itself was lovely so it was worth a visit.

Table for 2 booked smoothly, The food was absolutely first class. Cooked and served to perfection. Fantastic atmosphere, no loud music, spacious surroundings even though it was busy (ish). Unfortunately there was a short delay in ordering due to some technical hitch, the meals were served a little later than we expected. However, the restaurant manager dealt with the issue in a very apologetic and professional manner and the bill was adjusted accordingly. It's well worth a visit, we'll be going again sometime..

Really lovely food, gorgeous atmosphere and the restaurant/bar team were excellent. We had a wonderful early dinner

We haven't been to this restaurant for about 18 months. Glad to say it seems to have changed hands for the better. We booked our table but turned up 30 mins early for a drink we were offered either a table I'm the bar or in the restaurant. We opted for the bar. The addition of some real ales was a nice surprise since we last visited. The Wainwrights is achreat pint of ale. All the staff were very helpful and courteous, with prompt service ordering drinks and food. The food arrived quickly and we were not disappointed my wife ordered beetroot panacota, I ordered duck pate both were absolutely beautifully presented , served with bread, salad, and pickled red onions, absolutely gorgeous. We both ordered steaks my wife's well done, mine medium. Both came perfectly cooked accompanied by mushroom, tomatoes, salad and triple cooked chips all perfect. The Malbec wine to go with the steak was perfect well worth the cost. I will definitely start visiting the restaurant regularly again. Keep up the great work 👍

Lovely food in an amazing location, it's like a fairy tale castle, stone built and gorgeous. Plenty of free parking. We sat in the al fresco area and it was fantastic, staff spot on, good food for the price (about £60 for two starters and two mains) and really friendly staff. Really clean and tidy and the gardens are amazing Scallops to start were a little small but the lamb was fantastic, portion sizes nor massive but that's standard in a nice gaff, nice little walk around the back to a disused stone abbey. Will defo come back😍😍😍

Needs a little more variety on the menu,apart from this great 2 day stay

Dined a couple of times here, nice location food good. However failed to deliver dishes ordered and missed our orders completely. But did attempt to rectify by giving free drink, but had to be asked for compensation

Excellent service. Excellent value for money. Will be back

The food was excellent, the service was spot on, the room was superb.

The food was excellent, waiting staff were a little inexperienced

Stunning food, warm and welcoming atmosphere with great service!

Atmosphere lovely, very attentive staff, food beautiful if a little experience great for a special family occasion

This place is amazing food is out of this world staff is second to none love coming here for food

Food excellent. Staff lovely. Was a nice atmosphere also, very relaxing. Just what I needed after a manic few months.

Disappointed we were put in the dog house ..service slow ....food mediocre ... coffee weak ....

Great venue to celebrate my 80th birthday. Despite being busy with a wedding party in we were given excellent service by a professional and friendly staff. Lovely comfortable and warm bedroom for the night. Well recommended.

Excellent food and the staff were very helpful and polite

Had a lovely visit today for Afternoon Tea.

Great food, but bar service was a bit slow.

Could do a lot better! The food was well presented but the quality of cooking left a lot to be desired. Our table (of four) ordered the slow cooked leg of lamb: what is the traditional sauce served with lamb, that's right, its mint. Main meals arrived but no mint sauce, asked for the sauce and some extra gravy, took 12 minutes to arrive. Ideally would have been on the table before the meal arrived. Roast potatoes were tough skinned but fluffy inside, sharper knives needed! The lamb was fatty but ok, nothing outstanding. Barrow's premier hotel? I don't think so on this performance and price, hopefully it's just a one-off blip. It will be a long time before we try again.

really need to update your website regarding dining. people rely on these before booking, dissatisfied with lunch menu, fish finger baguette,? is there a shortage of proper fish and chips? or Gammon?

Staff were so helpful and really welcoming, food was amazing, would definitely recommend dining here, and hope to be back again soon

Excellent food and chilled atmosphere. Dropped a star because the burger was a little over done (probably made too early and left under the heat). Rest of the food and courses were great though.

Excellent food and service Only downside loud music throughout the evening made conversation difficult Soft music would have been much more enjoyable.

Very good. Food and service was excellent. Very well organised if a little quiet. Staff all very friendly and attentive.

We enjoyed a superb meal last night at Oscar's

Excellent service, excellent value, excellent menu

Great food and wine , top service even with all the Covid difficulties! Had a great night.

What can I say amazing...from start to finish.from being taken to our table to being served.best fillet steak i have ever had excellent food all round thank you

Food was excellent. Table service was really good

Fantastic Food. We were happy and we had wonderful experience at Oscars!

Gorgeous food, beautiful location, staff went above and beyond, we couldn't praise it any higher! Prices very reasonable for what we got and the food was amazing, cooked perfectly with not one complaint! Will definitely return (even with a 2 hour drive to get to it!)

We had a so called 5 course Valentine’s Day dinner. £50 per head to include a bottle of bubbly. Starters were ok. So called second course was a tiny glass full of crushed ice flavoured with gin. Lamb rump for main course was acceptable though my wife didn’t rate the sea bass. So called 4th course another tiny glass with yoghurt. Dessert a tasteless sticky toffee pudding. The hotel surroundings look fabulous so I was expecting a 5 star meal. We didn’t get one. Shan’t dine there again.

Went for a wedding and the catering was very good

Afternoon tea served beautifully and very efficiently. Great tasting food. Recommended if in the area!

Always good service and lovely food.

Only had the coffee but it was very nice and pleasant. Anyone who gets the opetunity should definitely make the trip.

Absolutely brilliant . The food was delicious and well presented. Waiting staff perfect in every way . Massive thank you . Highly recommended

Service and food very good but we were sat in an area that was quite draughty

Worst meal Ive had in a long time dont waste your money

Nice food busy nice service a bit pricey but you get what you pay fir

8 of us here for a 60th birthday all had a lovely meal...enjoyable night. Very attentive staff

Lovely place, food and service.

Very nice meal lovely atmosphere. Excellent steak.

Absolutely fantastic I had my wedding here staff cant do enough for you our stay all round was fantastic

Good food and staff very friendly

We've just had the worst meal ever, service was very poor, I had salad dropped down my clothes when they cleared the starters. Food was questionable, and my daughter's sweet had black mould inside the raspberries! Certainly won't be going back there... even charged for a double espresso when it was obviously a single and even said "single espresso" when they served it. Wouldn't recommend to anyone.

Had the much advertised Himalayan rib eye steak ordered medium to well got well. Not an expert but I think the clue is in the name and I actually got a sirloin from aldi.

The roast beef was excellent!! Staff were fantastic. Small issue with a non disabled person taking up a disabled bay and the initial response from reception was to try and defend the Registrar (marriage not hospital...) plonking their car in it with a note saying 'Registrar on Duty' on the dash. Just a tad entitled🙄 Anyway, chat with manager, owner (nay, Registrar supreme) asked to shift it. Really a matter for good old fashioned education and etiquette. And the fact the space isn't there for swift entry by non-disabled to the bldg when it's raining. Or you think you're more important than an person with MS and reliant on a wheelchair....

Lovely place. Recently renovated castle, modern interiors but with a touch of the past

Excellent food & service, for our large family party.

Great quality food and service. Would definitely recommend the himalayan salted steak with a glass of merlot.

Oscar's Al fresco was an amazing space for our recent private party. It holds up to 50 people and offers amazing views of abbey house hotel gardens. The room is beautiful on a sunny day, but has a weatherproof awning so you don't need to worry if it's raining. The staff were exceptional, particularly James Gomes. He was amazing, checking in with us periodically to ensure we had everything we needed. For food we went for the barbecue menu, and there was plenty of food for everyone, all amazing quality. Room amenities include also include a bottle bar - we had welcome drinks too.

Lovely food in fantastic surroundings

Oscars at The Abbey House Hotel is a special venue and dining experience. From the moment you walk in, there was a warm welcome from the front of house staff, attentive and efficient. The young staff were well drilled in the art of good old fashioned service, which they carried out with correographed precision. There limited menu meant that although there wasn't much in the way of choice, the food that was available was of fine dining quality. We spent the weekend at the hotel and in that time the footfall of non resident customers to this dining venue spoke volumes. Most definitely one to recommend.

Good quality nicely presented food. Attentive staff. Reasonably priced for surroundings. For visitors to the area check out Furness Abbey accessed behind the hotel pathway.

I have eaten out at 3/4 of the dining restaurants, bistros and bars in Barrow-in-furness and I have to say...that 'Oscars' was piss poor compared to other places. The Scallops were tasteless, the beef burger was a rock solid piece of meat, where the overwhelming flavour was Red Onion Marmalade. The sticky toffee sponge could have been a doorstop in a previous life covered in a sauce, so sweet, you would become an instant diabetic, served with a desert spoon of ice-cream. However, I have to say the setting and the grounds were sublime. Ĺ

Love the food the staff where a bit forgetful of customers last time I was there

Had the Sunday roast and it was amazing, highly recommended

Couldn't fault it, fantastic venue, great food and extremely helpful staff

The wife and i had really good main courses and the service was good. However, my wife's dessert was disappointing so when we told the guy he was very understanding and deducted it from our bill. Can't ask fairer than that to be honest.

The meal would have fab but not hot enough a beautiful place and sraff

Loved it here. Beautiful food...friendly staff

Very nice lunch. A bit more expensive but nicely presented and good service.

Seemed expensive for what wehad

Good meal and fish and chips v. Good

Lovely place great food but extremely slow service.

stayed for the weekend for my son's wedding .everything was perfect .rooms food .all the staff were very helpfull and very friendly .

Just the basics in terms of service was poor. They forgot to give us a menu and then take our order, simple things like cutlery werent provided. However food was good. We opted for the steak which was spot on and desert. Again, my desert was lovely, however my partners was a little over cooked.

Food was great service excellent

Once food ordered, took a very long time to arrive. Not of great quality and portion size quite variable.

Beautiful setting. Attentive and friendly staff. Our meals came quite quickly and were cooked beautifully. Very nice place to relax and unwind with good food and wine.

Diabolical service, uncooked food. Ridiculous wait time between courses, several tables receiving undercooked or overcooked food. Had to go to bar to get bill. Wait staff nowhere to be seen. Where is management?
