pig and whistle in South Lakeland

First of all, a couple of points to bear in mind for anyone reading this. Although out of control of the P&W, the only parking on street is at a premium and very limited. This was our first visit here and the restaurant itself is quite small and intimate (absolutely nothing wrong with that) and therefore booking a table is a must during a 7/7:30 pm sitting as all tables were occupied. Not certain if the dining room is due to be decorated, but it really could benefit from a lick of paint to update the drab walls which were all totally bereft of any pictures and the only decoration was a tatty plant in a bottle. As a suggestion, perhaps tea lights could add to a current lack of ambiance? The two lads (brothers?) running the dining room were nothing short of polite and attentive (no complaints there), took our orders and did ask if we wanted more drinks regularly. What was a nice touch were the glasses of water with ice and lemon served to us as we were seated. I don't mind paying a premium price if the food is good, but the sharing bread and olives was a tad expensive for just that was, and the rest of the menu was on the steep side too for what was nothing special (sorry P&W) but very nice. We ordered our main meal, but it transpired that the table next to us got it and was eventually taken away from them and an apology given to them and us, which we did accept with no complaint but really shouldn't happen in a small restaurant. We were going to order a sweet, but after seeing the small portion our other 'neighbours' were served (again for the cost), we decided against it. What we should have done was to look on line at the menu and cost - totally the fault was ours but in our defence M'Lord, we had extremely poor internet service! It's often said you don't get a second chance at first impression, which can be somewhat disputed. That said, taking everything into account, I don't think we'd make a return visit but do wish them all the best for the future.

I’ve followed this pub on instagram for a few months now and tonight myself and a few work colleagues managed to experience this lovely gem of a place for food. Absolutely superb service from the two waiters , the food was outstanding, fabulous starter and main, good choice of drinks, a very pleasurable night and one we will definitely be experiencing again. We all loved it. Hope to visit soon and cannot wait to try the Taco evenings.

Last visited under previous management, when Sunday Lunch was very good. Another trip to Cartmel & promising reviews prompted a visit for Sunday Lunch. Sadly, things have rather gone downhill. We were ushered via a dank corridor into a cold room & offered menus. No starters are available but we were optimistic that the Beef Roast would be fine. Unfortunately not. The beef itself was actually very good & the roast potatoes & cauliflower cheese quite acceptable but the Yorkshire pudding was obviously bought in & tasteless & equally tasteless red cabbage, undercooked carrots & cabbage completed a very disappointing meal. We declined a pudding, paid & left & will not be back. Other reviews have been effusive but I’m afraid it was not very good. I wish current Management well- you have some work to do. PS turn the heating on and don’t serve food on chipped plates, plus don’t wrap your napkins around damp cutlery which makes the napkins soggy.

Visiting family and friends who live in Grange and Cartmel Fell. Booked a table for 1930. Arrived at 1925, didn’t mind waiting at the bar and checked on the table 20 mins later…….had already spent £55 on our first round of drinks as we bought a bottle of wine for dinner. 14 and 12 year old starving! Got taken through around 2010, seemed promising….. order taken about ten mins later ….. followed up on order at 2050….. kids now losing the will to live ….. it’s coming …… food finally arrived about 2130! Friends then have to leave as soon as they have eaten so they can pick up their son. Such a shame because the food was lovely but I’m really disappointed to have booked a table for 1930 and to have not eaten till 2130. Sadly they have lost a local family of 5 who would have eaten there and also my mum who is local. Let’s see what The Cavendish Arms is like for lunch…. Surely we won’t be waiting 2 hours before we get to eat!!!

As a party of six we booked the Pig and Whistle for a dinner. We were welcomed into a lively, friendly traditional pub, which is so good to see. A mixture of locals and visitors made the evening very enjoyable in the bar. We were taken through to the dining room and given a menu which was not too over facing but with a great choice and well thought out. After much decision making we decided to go for two sharing Camembert, Nacho's and Pork Belly. Each starter was very good but the Pork Belly was very impressive and will be ordered on our next visit. For main meals we had one Chicken Burger and five Reef and Beef - all mains were good portions, perfectly cooked and so tasty. We struggled to fit puddings in but decided to share three puddings, two sticky toffee profiteroles and a chocolate tart. The staff work extremely hard in a busy village and are an asset to this pub. Each member of staff was efficient, friendly and seemed to enjoy working there. Well done Dean and staff, keep up the good work.

Visited with my husband for an evening meal. The place looks a little tired and could do with up dating, however the staff were extremely efficient and friendly. Excellent fast service from a young blonde girl who served us. Had the nachos for starter which were great, but then for main course I had the chicken burger. It was pretty tasteless and the bun was so soggy it made it difficult to eat. Didn’t finish it all. Dessert was three tiny scoops of ice cream - not really worth the money. The food was a let down to be honest and wouldn’t recommend or return. Which is a shame as the place itself is friendly and welcoming.

Great pub in the village of cartmel

Good for a drink before and after the Races.

Brilliant pub situated in Cartmel. Went on taco Tuesday and the food was really good! Great pint too! Would fully recommend for drinks or food.

Lovely little quaint pub with plenty of seating and great food. My husband and I had the super food salad and the fish goujon flat bread. Both were delicious. Staff very attentive and super friendly. We will definitely be back

Lovely local Robinsons pub in Cartmel. Fair selection of beer on, and a nice beer garden overlooking the village.

Honestly the best roast I’ve ever had!

Lovely food and lovely atmosphere. Beautiful location, and the staff were very attentive. Would definitely recommend!

Nice welcoming staff. Good food. Good choice of beers. Construction workers using industrial language alongside families on their holidays. How places change. Such a shame.

We were so pleased that we chose this excellent village pub for our Sunday lunch. Not long taken over by a young couple, the Pig & Whistle is doing really good things. It's a traditional pub, owned by Robinsons Brewery, serving really tasty home cooked food and serving well-kept real ales. On a Sunday they offer an excellent "Sunday Sharer": - The ultimate Sunday sharer. Yorkshire puddings filled with bacon topped cheese sauce and beer onion gravy to dunk your sirloin steak, meat of the day, Cumberland sausage pig in blanket wheel, cauliflower cheese, stuffing and parmesan topped roasties and veggies in. This is nicely presented in a roasting tray. It was all excellent and the sirloin was served beautifully pink. All very tasty and a generous portion. The service was excellent. It's a shame we don't live closer. Good luck with pub, guys and thank you for a great Sunday lunch. (Also posted to my food blog on Instagram @AbbeyKing16)

Amazing Sunday lunch, great service and a lovely pub👍

Booked for an evening meal out, as locals we’ve not tried since new ownership, but weren’t disappointed. We had the fish & chips and the steak and chips both cooked beautifully, batter on fish was light, and not at all greasy, steak was cooked medium rare .. perfect. Would recommend.

Just called in for a drink on our way from the races lovely pub and a warm welcome friendly staff will call again

What a great place to eat in Cartmel, we had the the Sunday Roast chicken dinner and it was one of the best we have had , and for dessert the April Spritz trifle , the staff were all really friendly and helpful nothing was too much trouble for them , will definitely be visiting again and highly recommend if you’re in Cartmel call in for food and a drink , the outside area is fantastic with plenty of extra seating .

Good quality food at a reasonable price range.

Do not come here if you want a good roast. We were so disappointed, we just drove 30 min off the back of coming here 2 years ago and loving the roast, this place has gone downhill. We were greeted by a moody waitress and ordered two roasts for £17 each that were definitely not worth the money. The veg consisted of only, red cabbage that was far too over powering, 3 small potatoes and half a carrot, was also missing the advertised stuffing. The beef was completely over cooked, to the point I had to ask for a steak knife to cut it! Staff never asked how our meal was (even after having to ask for a steak knife) Avoid yourself the disappointment

Gorgeous location, great pub food (the Yorkshire pudding wrap was amazing), dog friendly and great atmosphere!

Sunday lunch was a hit! Great quality food and the portions to go with it. Lovely and cosy, friendly staff and amazing value for money. After being unable to resist the puddings after our Sunday roast, we were rolling out the door we were so full. Looking forward to going back during the week to try their main menu and see what the new management have done next! Exciting to see this lovely pub blossom.

HORRIBLE FOOD!! I was out today for lunch with my wife and child, and our experience was nothing short of terrible. We started with a pint of Moretti in the back garden, which had a pleasant ambiance, but things went downhill from there. The food menu was limited to roast dinners and Yorkie wraps, with options for beef and chicken. We ordered one of each with beef, along with a cheeseburger for my son. As a big beef lover, I was looking forward to a good meal. Unfortunately, from the very first bite, it was clear that the meat was of the cheapest cut, incredibly chewy, and left a terrible aftertaste. It was the worst dining experience I've ever had. What started as a beautiful day turned into a nightmare, and I wasted £50 on this atrocity. I usually don't post negative reviews, but this experience was so bad that I felt compelled to warn others. I didn't complain at the restaurant because I don't like wasting food, so I tried to eat as much as I could and left without a word.

Very nice food, cute cottage to stay in, special thanks to Dean Xx

Very friendly pub with a great beer garden with lovely views. Wine selection was top notch and very reasonable prices. Food was delicious and plentiful.

Been going for years and the food has been really good. However it’s recently been taken over and the food was simply the best!!. I had gluten-free fish and chips and it’s the best I’ve ever tasted and all my friends enjoyed the reef and beef. I highly recommend!! Will definelty be back xx

WOW, what a great country pub. Had a meal at the Pig & Whistle (Cartmel) last week and it was fantastic, very tasty and well presented. Staff very attentive and could not do enough for you which made are visit one to remember. Bar full of locals which tells you the new owners Dean & Stephanie and their staff are running a welcoming friendly pub. Lovely beer garden at the rear so you can sit in the sun and admire the fantastic views overlooking Cartmel and the surrounding country side. Booked in again this weekend and can't wait. A must visit if you are in the Lake District or live locally. Guinness very nice (£5.80) and the wife had a fantastic cocktail.

Just had a swift one pre races, hospitable hosts nice surroundings

Went for food with my family and was delighted with both the service from Luke and his colleagues and the quality, portions and price of his food. We will definitely return next time we’re in the area!

We stopped in after we'd been out for a meal in Cartmel and were so pleased we did! First thing to say is that the pub is under new management and so I'd pay more attention to reviews in the last few weeks than any before their time. We met Dean, who has recently taken over the pub and lives there with his young family. Seems a really nice guy and hope it all works out for them - based on our experience I'm sure it will. Nice atmosphere, decor etc. and good selection of food and drinks. If we'd been staying in Cartmel longer then we'd have come back for lunch but unfortunately we were leaving the next day.

Amazing food ,best chicken burger every ,steak pie , fish n chips where also fantastic .

Lovely locals pub with great staff

Nice pub. Goods drinks selection.

Disappointed that they no longer do meals in the evening

Gorgeous Sunday dinner, in a warm & cosy environment Host was amazing, will be back. Beautifully ran pub.

Tried calling to make a table reservation but the mailbox was full. Went in person and it was closed. Tried the following night - bar service only and no food for the foreseeable. Not a good way to run a business - at least put a message on the phone and a note on the door!!

Nipped here for a drink whilst on a day out. Lovely, quaint pub, owners lovely and friendly, dogs are allowed too.

Great bar, great views, missing out on food, should have the beef barms on every night, not just quiz nights, as the rest of the pub food prices are scandalous

Went in last night and waited to be served at the bar for 15 minutes. Was completely ignored by both bar staff. Would absolutely not recommend

Good food and friendly, welcoming staff

Quaint pub in gorgeous Cartmel. Proper cosy, country pub feel. Bar staff were lovely and welcoming, and so were the locals! Only had a drink here but the food sounded pretty good and did look it too! Will have to go back and try it. Definitely worth popping in for!

Brilliant little pub just on the edge of he village staff realy good 👍

I write this with such a heavy heart. I ate here when Simon Rogan had it and was so happy to be back. We arrived, sat in a lovely beer garden, met the gorgeous Coco chocolate Lab, we had our chocolate Lab with us. It was lovely. I went in to confirm our booking for food an hour later explaining we would move inside. And we did at 5, when we were booked. The woman started showing my husband and I to the restaurant. I queried if dogs were allowed and she said no there was no dog on the booking. I mean he was with us but hey. She said we could take the table in the bar. I checked my emails and said Jackson confirmed the dog a month ago. She snorted and said he was the owners son. And then said to us hopefully the other booking didn’t have a dog as if it were our fault. She then said to the delightful young lad who served us, really loudly, the name of the new owners of the pub. But what should she care. Or him. We got the wrong water and she asked if I had opened it, I said yes which was how I knew not sparkling and she explained it by saying they only had still and charged us. She is off to open her own tea rooms in Grange. God help her customers. Food mediocre. Sticky toffee saved it. This pub needs Robinsons to give a damn about it. All other pubs in Cartmel are so much better.

Great pub in a fantastic setting with great service if a little smaller inside.

Visited on pie Wednesday. Good selection. Had beef/guiness, crammed with meat, very tasty, choice of potatoes, selection of mixed veg, followed by Tim's sticky toffee pudding..... yummy 😋 😋 😋 very attentive staff, one very lovely chatty girl who's at Manchester uni.

Good choice of drinks outside seating area looks on to field of sheep. Only went for a drink in bar, dogs welcome.

Gorgeous place amazing staff - brisket incredible!

The very friendly and helpful staff booked us in very last minute when we were let down by another restaurant. The food was lovely and we really enjoyed out night.

Slim shady behind the bar couldn’t be bothered making a certain drink for us, at first slim said they didn’t have the right glasses for it, we pointed them out being the bar then marshal Mather’s said I’m just not doing them ok! Sassy slim.

Spending a week at Cartmel we sampled a few meals! The pig and whistle was welcoming, friendly and the food was amazing, tasty , great value!! Staff super friendly and atmosphere relaxing! Loved the menu choices as a vegetarian, also sweets were so lovely! Nothing too much trouble! Highly recommend!

Having been let down by another local pub/restaurant despite receiving a booking confirmation, we thought there was nowhere we could find a meal on a Sunday evening. Despite a couple of awful reviews I have read of this place recently, I went to this almost in desperation for an evening meal not expecting success. The lady behind the Bar made no issue of accommodating our party of 4 and we were escorted to our table. Immediate service from Elise (unsure of spelling) was polite, friendly and efficient. The Menu offered a very good and varied range at very reasonable prices. None over £15. Every one thoroughly enjoyed the mains, and when it came to dessert choice Tim’s Sticky toffee pudding went down very well, a very generous portion, and so did the Golden Strawberry Creme Brûlée and the Summer Fruit pudding. At £5.95 each very decently priced in the modern market. All food was excellent, the service by the owner/landlady and all her staff was attentive, and very friendly. Would highly recommend and will Hopefully get the opportunity to return again, the mussels moules looked amazing.

Cumbria Way and Hopp beers were excellent. Duck Breast 'special' at £19.95 (excluding veg) was well presented but the meat was very tough. Chicken Breast from main menu also chewy. Service not very friendly. It didn't seem worth complaining about the food as I suspected any replacement would be equally tough having just been defrosted after the order came in. Also, didn't want to extend our visit longer than necessary as the atmosphere was fairly frosty in the dining room.

The pub offers a fairly small menu we weren’t disappointed, our table of 4 couldn’t fault the food and we all thoroughly enjoyed our mains.The Moules and Steak Pie were excellent. We finished off with Tim’s Sticky Toffee Pudding which was superb.

Boy does this place need to improve. I’m going to say it exactly as it is….very small food portions, server was rather cold in her lack of friendliness, I’m local and will not be going back.

Oh dear. The woman that met us was sour faced and very abrupt. We had booked a couple of days prior to our visit and mentioned we would have a dog. When we arrived and said we had a booking we were asked Outside or inside?" We had not been asked to state a preference when booking. Told the sour faced woman we weren't bothered. Put in a corner of the room and told to keep the dog in the corner. There wasn't one please,thank you or pleasant interaction with the woman who made us feel as though we were an imposition Couldn't get out fast enough. The food was ok

Amazing food and customer service. Every time we have been the food has been first class. Very confused with negative reviews as our experience has been amazing. Thank you so much to the lovely friendly attentive staff

We popped into the pub in the afternoon to check out the beer and were served by the pleasant young bar man who knew his stuff . The beer and the garden were fantastic . The evening meal was a disappointment . 2 dishes on a limited menu were unavailable and the service by a dour lady made us feel distinctly uncomfortable . Will not be returning

We booked a table via email a few days in advance for 9 people advising that we would also be bringing 2 dogs. This was reiterated when I called to pay a deposit over the phone. Upon arrival we were told that they were not aware we had dogs and as we had been seated in the restaurant area the dogs had to stay in the corner out of the way as they shouldn’t have been in there! The waitress who served as did not appear to enjoy her job as she miserable with no personality. We were made to feel like a burden and not a paying customer. When the food was brought out 2 of our party had to wait for their main courses resulting in the rest of us waiting for them and then our food going cold. The food was ok but not something I would rush back for. When it came to desserts we had to have the menu read to us for some reason?? - not sure why we couldn’t have read it ourselves. Needless to say we didn’t bother to stay for dessert. All in all we were disappointed with the experience and wish we had chosen a different pub in the village for the last night of our holiday.

I can only echo another reviewer's comments regarding the burger. It was bloody awful. Dry burger, dry bun, anaemic-looking boiled (I think?) onions. Our 'hand-cut' chips.... well, they definitely were not hand-cut. I'd like to say the service was good. I'd like to... but we thought our waitress seemed distinctly aloof. No smiles. No chit-chat. Very unwelcoming. A positive? The beer was nicer than the wine! There are 3 other pubs in Cartmel. The Pig & Whistle isn't one we'd ever visit again. Do better!

The menu is very limited choice could be fine but what is served is very poor. I had the mussels which were to small to harvest and should have been left in the ocean. The veg with meals was tasteless.

I’m not convinced a chef made my food. It was a burger and chips straight from a school canteen. Shop bought burger slopped onto a dry Wholemeal bun. You’ll get better from a burger van in a B&Q car park.

Sadly the "Pig and Whistle" failed to meet our expectations, lumpy mashed potatoes, a spoonful of boiled to death cabbage, a lack lustre jus, only the sausages were palatable, Overcooked steak, undercooked chips, think that sums it up!

Enjoyed a couple of drinks after racing. Unfortunately I left my phone, which was kindly handed in behind the bar. On contacting the pub the following day, a member of staff (Tim) saved me a 4 mile return walk/taxi ride, by bringing the phone to...
