We were looking for somewhere to stop for a bite to eat on our way up to the Lakes. We came across the River Bela cafe and certainly weren't disappointed! A lovely little place with friendly hosts and delicious food. All this and dog friendly too, which is a must for us. We had the lovely home baked, hand carved ham sandwiches. On the way back home 2 days later we couldn't resist calling in again, this time for a lovely cooked breakfast - scrumptious! We will definitely be returning and recommending to friends and family.

This is a gorgeous little cafe that serves good quality food at reasonable prices and always with a smile. We stopped here whilst on our way to the Lakes, and we are so glad we did. We both had breakfast consisting of bacon, sausages, eggs, beans and toast. Really good quality ingredients that were cooked perfectly. As we got chatting with the lovely owner, she told us the long history of the cafe, which was very interesting. There is parking front and back of the cafe. We will certainly stop again when we are in the area.

Called in today for an impromptu lunch- what a find!! I’m a lady of simple taste so i couldn’t not have the double egg and chips, hubby had a Brie and cranberry sandwich on lovely fresh granary bread. Two cappuccinos to drink- just perfect. Beautifully cooked food, in a lovely little eatery, super friendly hosts and quick service I lived in Milnthorpe for 10 years so why has it taken me this long to discover this little gem?!! Already planning a return visit! We both have our eyes on the homemade quiche next time!!

Excellent service and food - could not ask for more from a cafe. We had lunch and it was perfectly cooked and beautifully served. Lovely couple running this cafe. Great value- we will be returning to try the breakfasts. Far and away the best value in the area. Excellent thank you !

Called in for lunch and it didn’t disappoint. Lovely homemade soup served with bread whilst my partner had a banoffee muffin which he said was delicious. Puppy friendly too, so even better.

My hoomans came here for lunch. Puppies were welcome so I came too. I sat quietly under the table whilst they scoffed their food. Puppy treats were on offer for well behaved pups so all wasn’t too bad.

Really nice experience here this afternoon catching up with a university friend. We were really happy with the food and especially the prices - exceptional value for money. Had a good craic with the (presumably) owners once we were finished who seem lovely! Whilst im not local, I’m often down in Milnthorpe and will make this a regular stop off.

We called in on a Saturday morning for breakfast. Wasn’t sure if dogs were allowed but pleased to be told that they are also welcome. Lovely food and reasonable prices which we thoroughly enjoyed. Would highly recommend, especially if you have a dog. Lots of places say that dogs are welcome but you can tell they are just tolerated but this cafe really means it! Will definitely be back.

Absolutely fab! The best poached eggs I’ve ever had and excellent value for money! It’s so rare to get eggs cooked just right, firm ( not rubbery white and lovely soft yolk). Thank you

First time at The Bela, although we had been when previous owners in charge. New owners friendly, place clean (love the rabbit and hedgehog wallpaper in the toilet) and prices modest. Food well prepared and plentiful. Would think there is nothing to choose between anything on the menu - it all depends how hungry you are.

This is a lovely cafe run by two lovely people. The menu has enough different items to take this above the normal cafe fare whilst still being homely. The prices are good, the surroundings are comfortable and scrupulously clean and they have the best salad dressing I’ve ever tasted! It’s dog friendly too. Great place

This was my first time visiting at a 3-star Michelin restaurant as well as eating at the Chef's table. Firstly, from now on I will definitely attempt to do the Chef's table experience at a restaurant when it is available. It is a much more entertaining affair, and more interesting and informative experience than your traditional restaurant experience. Whilst preparing each of the individual and unique courses, the chef clearly explained the inspiration/ingredients behind each course. He also shared how L'enclume are trying to be more sustainable and how Simon Rogan has his own farm nearby in Cartamel to source fresh local produce for the restaurant. The chefs table experience also allows you to speak to other groups of people present and share their experience and why they are there and their opinions. It's a great experience for foodies and highly recommended. For l'enclume and Aulis Cartamel , the food is great, organic, beautifully presented and expertly prepared. My personal favourite is the Orkney Scallops and Corra lim pudding caramelised in Birch sap. This restaurant is a true English restaurant, that is worth 3 stars

So I’m not normal one to leave a review, that being said overall I was hugely disappointed with the meal I had at the Knipe Grill at Gilpin Lake House. Firstly - we were show to our table and and iPad dropped on the table. Yes this is a menu and yes I can work and iPad. But with the hotel boasts 5 stars I expect a little more interaction. -With an experienced chef David with many an accolade, unfortunately I was underwhelmed. You quote “My food is fun, there’s always a bit of a story behind it, a bit of nostalgia and playfulness” Sadly there was no story no fun. This was primarily down the the service and the lack of engagement, talking us through the menu, championing and highlighting locality, seasonally and recommendations. The level of service we received for the price paid just wasn’t up to standard. - and finally whilst I know this is a hotel with a hot tub, there is something about having a group of people in bath robes walking through the restaurant heading to the hot tub a little strange. I wouldn’t expect this from a restaurant in a 3 star Spanish hotel, let alone a 5 star very expensive hotel/restaurant in the lakes In summary the restaurant's inexperience staff led to poor service, which significantly impacted the dining experience. The lack of knowledge and attentiveness resulted in frustration and dissatisfaction. While the food showed potential, it ultimately fell short of the expected standard considering the price paid. Overall, the combination of what seemed like inexperienced staff and underwhelming food quality makes this restaurant a less than satisfying choice. Sorry for this review but unfortunately this is a true reflection of my/out experience.

Wow! What a fabulous experience from start to finish! We visited for my friend’s 40th and everything was perfect! Location, service and food- just beautiful! I have coeliac disease and they were so attentive and careful and went out of their way to ensure I didn’t miss out on anything. I even had different kinds of bread- believe me, this is wildly unusual for anything GF and I felt so special! All of the food was divine. I ate the lot, but totally regretted the sugar rush later on when I had a two hour drive home :-) Everything was perfect - the best afternoon tea I’ve ever had!

Fantastic! I’m a regular visitor to this shop and I’ve never bought anything that hasn’t been perfect. From the “Cumberland curl”, a variety of marinated chicken breasts, lamb joints, bacon (including treacle and breakfast), a variety of different pies, “chilli growlers”, marinated lamb shanks and so the list goes on. Absolutely first class. I’ve been nudged into writing this review after my husband tried their new spicy lamb pie. He said it was “excellent” with “great spices”. All this with such friendly, professional, informative service. All I can say is if you’re in Windermere don’t miss a visit.
