In Silloth with my wife and family on the weekend and we decided to have a take away. We decided to have 'Fish & Chips' and we sat and ate them at one of the tables on 'The Green', they were really fresh and tasty. Can't wait to go back in the future.

Visited on Wednesday 14/8/24 for gluten free fish & chips. It was extremely busy with many people queuing so we weren't sure that they would have time to prepare the GF items - however the lady cooking was very kind and said come back in 30/45 minutes. When we returned the queue was even bigger but she had prepared gluten free fish and chips X2 and it was all absolutely superb. Really nice freshly made fish & chips! Highly recommended and we will return very soon. Many thanks to the staff !

Popped in after a day with the family, bit concerned to see staff with no hair nets or gloves handling fresh fish which was just lying in a plastic tub on top of a metal unit, side of this was covered in batter mix and today was hot! It was eventually covered with a carrier bag 😬Asked for cheese and again hand right in the tub no gloves which again, surprising...then it wasn't even that tasty, batter was undercooked , sausages were ok but what was going on with the chips?? Dirty oil or old?? not good at all..I'm sure some people will absolutely love it but unfortunately it want for us. Pricing was surprisingly good and we didn't wait long but I've definitely had better

This used to be one of my favourite chip shops! Never minded the queues being out of the door because she staff were always friendly & the food worth the wait. After my last two visits I won't be returning. The blonde haired lady on the counter is so abrupt and rude I wouldn't come back purely because of her. On silloth carnival day I came in the exit door to politely ask if they were serving gluten free options today before I stood in the queue. I was shouted NO at. As I walked away she shouted "well the chips always are". As the rest of the family were starving we queued. When we finally got to the till my brother ordered a fish to which the same woman said "did you order it at the other end?" We looked confused and said no? I said to her sorry there wasn't a sign saying we needed to do that. She ignored us pulled a face & asked for a fish to be put in. The next woman in the queue (not in our party) ordered another fish and again she said to her have you ordered it, again the woman looked as confused as us and said no. At this point I said maybe a sign at the entrance would be helpful if this is your policy. We eventually got our food which was so drowned in vinegar and salt it was almost inedible (and I like salt otherwise I'd have put it on myself)!! We sat in to eat, tables weren't cleared, bin overflowing. Don't get me wrong I appreciate it was an extremely busy day with it being silloth show but there is just no need for such arrogance and rudeness when you are front of house. Lack of gf options & staff attitude won't see me return now. Shame.

Visited today with friends and we all enjoyed our fish and chips lunch. Everything was freshly cooked and served hot. Fish was delicious and batter crispy. One of our party had the smoked unbattered sausage and again this was delicious. Chips were excellent, nice chunky size and not greasy. Good choice available. I addition to the cafe, they also offers takeaway and local delivery (delivery after 5pm). Worth visiting when your in Silloth.

Visiting Silloth on a pouring wet evening with 22 children and 8 adults … we placed our order by phone and braced ourselves for eating in the rain… we were absolutely delighted to be invited inside the cafe and given a warm welcome and the chips certainly hit the spot! Lovely staff and delicious supper at a reasonable price .

Not the best at all. Food in the cafe served like takeaway in polystyrene. Bread was dry. Fish was average. Chips below average. They put gravy on one of our chips which we didn’t want and owner rolled his eyes at a ten year old when she asked for them swapping. Wouldn’t bother again.

We had traditional fish and chips with mushy peas (and a can of coke). The queue was just out the door but it was lunchtime. The staff were asking 2 or 3 customers at a time if they wanted fish and then frying it in small batches. The freshest best fish and chips we'd had for a long time. We sat in the restaurant at the back which could probably do with a bit of TLC but it was look after yourself with no extra charge for the privilege of using their facilities (plus out on the Green was busy in the sunshine and seats in short supply).

Its been a while since we last had fish & chips from the Silloth Cafe (Chippy) and we couldn't wait as our last chippy from there was fantastic and this take-away was as good as the last one, the fish was perfect, straight out of the fryer and the chips had that crispy edge to them, perfect all round). Well done to the young team of staff that were working behind the counter, can't wait to go back.

Dreadful! Attitude of the owner was shocking! Refused to cook gluten free food as he was ‘too busy.’ So he will cater for allergies when his business is quiet but when he’s busy he just refuses. Not a way to run a business. Definitely will not return!

We waited in a long queue . There wasn’t anything g crossed off on the menu and neither of the servers said anything about any missing items . First I tried to order a children’s box for my son - no fish fingers and no chicken nuggets . I wanted a pie - no pies left. Also no gravy , no curry sauce and no mushy peas . Seeing as that was a lot of the things we had wanted we left . We were there 90 mins before closing time so it wasn’t as if they were finishing up for the day .

I have often visited this cafe for our fish and chips, often been ‘taken-a-back’ by the sheer rudeness, lack of people skills and unfriendliness. Today, after a rubbish day for personal reasons, me and my boyfriend decided a fish and chip supper, on the beach would be the perfect end. After waiting for 35 minutes outside of the shop (not that we minded) when we reached the counter, we were told there was no fish, one sausage, no curry sauce, no mushy peas, no gravy, you name it, there wasn’t any of it. And to be honest, after a sunny day on a Sunday, I wouldn’t have minded (although it would have been better to be warned as many people waited in the queue and walked off when they realised there was nothing left) I can understand that it’s been a busy day. However, I can’t think of any other word to describe the woman than just truly rude. ‘Nah none of that’ ‘or that’ ‘or that’ (with big sighs in between as if it was our fault or we were being a nuisance. I have always made excuses for the cafe (it’s hard work in the heat, it’s been a long day, it’s been busy, it’s nearly shutting time) when my parents or friends have had bad experiences, but I’m sorry but I’m done with making excuses. I won’t be returning and I would discourage anyone else to too. Allonby has a brilliant fish and chip shop which is a great alternative.

After a very lengthy wait outside, we ordered a chicken breast supper, chicken nuggets supper and a sausage supper. The chicken was so dry, it snapped! The chips resembled more like mashed potatoes due to them being SO OILY and mush-like in the tray. My children did enjoy the nuggets. Serving/wrapping counter was covered in salt everywhere the eye could see, it looked WHITE! The cooked food in the heat servery was lying in the broken off crispy batter bits - it looked more like a crispy bed there was that much of it. Nothing wrong with that - BUT staff definitely need improving on food hygiene training. Very off-putting. We wouldn’t recommend.

I visited Silloth for the first time today and looking forward to an outdoor lunch of fish and chips I accessed Tripadvisor for reviews of the best place for food. Silloth Cafe had good reviews so I located the cafe and went in at lunchtime. I wanted a small portion of fish and chips for myself but although the cafe had just opened I was told there wasn’t any so ordered 2 fish and chips and a fish. I took the food to my family outside who found the chips were raw. I went back to the cafe and explained the situation but rather than receive an apology I was left standing while every chip was checked. Eventually I was told the food would be replaced because 2 or 3 chips were raw. By this point my lunch was ruined and unfortunately the replacement food now contained cooked chips but fish coated in undercooked batter. I didn’t return for a second time and certainly won’t return again in the future. A truly disappointing and humiliating experience.

my partner and I always have fish and chips at some point while we're away in our caravan so as this is the only place on silloth high street we got 2 fish and chips to share- fish £5.25 each ! And with chips it came to £12.75 never paid that much for a battered fish before (take away ) but thought it's a treat on holiday....HOW wrong was I, the fish was greasy overcooked (chewy in fact) and beefed up in size by loads of battered...the chips weren't much better ! Hand on heart I can honestly say these were THE WORST MOST EXPENSIVE FISH AND CHIPS WEVE EVER BOUGHT ! I will never visit this chippy again....

I visit Silloth regularly as my family live there and it is a "cast in stone" tradition that my husband and I enjoy a walk along the beautiful promenade with a bag o'chips. Thankfully Silloth Cafe serve excellent Chips (and Fish, and Battered Jumbo Sausage and Mushy Peas and Gravy and... ).If ever you are in town I highly recommend paying them a visit. If it is a lovely day then a bag of chips looking out across the Solway to Criffel is beautiful... but if it is a little blustery (which has been known...) then dine inside the cafe. Wherever you eat ... their food is always faultless.

There were only 6 people in the que on a Friday evening at about 7pm...we’ve hit lucky!! 6/7 minutes wait and I’m 4th in line to the fish and chip throne and a member of staff informed us that there was no fish left.....ahhh, but wait that’s ok we can have sausage and chips instead....3/4 minutes later I’m 2nd in line and another member of staff came out to tell us there was nothing left!!!! WHAT?? no fish, no sausage no chips and the sign was taken in and that was that. There’s still over an hour before closing time....is this bad management or laziness? or both!

Had a beautiful take away chippy tonight, the type that english childhoods and summer holidays in the lakes are made of! Flakey, thick fish, batter not too thick and piping hot chips, mushy peas, curry sauce, sausages, really fantastic, a shame you have had same poor reviews lately I felt compelled to write and rave about this tea tonight, I can honestly say best chippy tea I have had for years!!! Thanks for the memory for my 3 little daughters and our fully bellies, made even better munching away in the car park at the bottom of the road looking at the sea

We heard the portions were meant to be on the large side however that was far from true! My husband ordered a large portion of chips which were more like a small. My small portion of chips was like a child’s portion! For the price they charge it definitely was not value for money!

Excellent chips but a long wait. We went at 530 on a Saturday. I’d no idea we’d wait 50 minutes. Staff were efficient though when being served. I’d recommend going but at less busy times. If they could work out how to get more orders through quicker it would be perfect .

Quite a regular but will seriously be looking else where. After the new owners took over from the previous owners the quality has seriously gone down bank. Bearly cooked sausages and the chips, well they taste and look like yesterday's warm ups whatever time of day you go in. The patties are awfull, cheese and potato mush and the fish we got was over cooked yet the batter was under cooked.... definately a skill but but not one we would like to experience again.

The fish was gererous in a good batter. The chips were generous in quantity but were not crisp. Producing soggy chips lets the meal down. Is it too low a temperature or poor fat.?

Called in at lunch time with a pensioner friend for lunch and what we had was excellent.I had Cumberland sausage chips and beans, my friend had Black pudding chips and beans. Neither of us could manage it all but it was excellent, very tasty and lovely and hot. We had a pot of coffee with our meals and that was really tasty too.I would recommend this Fish & Chip cafe to anybody but be warned you will get much much more than a snack!!! We will soon return. Thank you

My husband, myself and our 13 year old son visited The Brasserie two days ago on a Saturday evening. We were able to walk from our cottage accomadation to the Brasserie. On arrival to the venue we were very impressed by the beautiful driveway leading down to the Brasserie. The whole establishment is obviously very well kept with beautiful spring flowers and plants and lovely lighting down the drive. On entering the Brasserie however, we were suprised that the decor didnt appear to match the rest of the hotel. We were approached by a friendly waiter on arrival who took our drinks and food order promptly. He checked we were all ok during the first half of our meal and we felt his interactions with us were appropriate, not too overpowering or disinterested. My husband ordered the mushroom stroganoff. He felt it was quite ordinary and bland. I ordered the brushetta and a side portion of fries. I felt the brushetta was overpriced but the fries were beautiful. My son ordered the pizza which he said was really tasty! During the meal.another member of staff( female) arrived and we have to say it was quite an experience! We had ordered a second round of drinks. I had ordere a lakes gin and a small bottle of fever tree ginger ale to mix it with. I was allowing my son to taste the ginger ale from the bottle. The waitress appeared out of nowhere and snatched the bottle from his hand with a resounding"no!" It shocked us all! We reassured her that this was not an alcoholuc drink. She then commented in quite a rude manner when my husband wiped his nose gently on a napkin and also told us later on during the meal that she was used to working in the " posh restaurant". During our meal she stood over us on several.occasions which we felt was inappropriate and a bit unnerving! We felt she would benefit from some more training from more experienced members of staff. We did realise she was young and and was probably trying to.please (.a little too much). We were very patient with her but felt there may be future guests who may not be quite so tolerant! A little later during the evening my husband and our son went to use the toilet closest to the Brasserie. They came back and both told me there was smashed glass on the floor and a dirty nappy. My husband reported this to a member of staff from the spa team. On leaving the Brasserie we walked through to the hotel reception as we were all so concerned about the state of the toilet and wanted to ensure it had been sorted and the message had got trough. The lady on hotel reception didnt appear to know anything about this but we did see her promptly speaking to another hotel member of staff after our conversation. The only other disappointing part to.our meal was the cheeseboard. It sounded fantastic on the Brasserie menu but when it arrived we were informed that some of the cheeses were not available. The waiter did however add a few extra for us but we felt this could have been mentioned before we went ahead with the order. Sadly it was a disappointing experience as it could be a fabulous setting within the grounds of an obviously gorgeous hotel.

We were staying in Keswick on the first of November 2024 to celebrate two 50th birthday’s. Keswick was extremely busy and four eating establishments we went to couldn’t accommodate our party of seven. However the Lake road inn had vacant tables which was great and now I understand why. It was 2.30pm and the kitchen was closing at 5.00pm so they explained the menu was limited (fair enough). After viewing the limited menu we decided it couldn’t accommodate our party so thought we would have a drink whilst booking another venue on line for an hours time. Ordered a Guinness then a glass of Malbec. No Malbec and then discovered a lot of the ales were unavailable too. We decided this just wasn’t for us and said to the bar it doesn’t matter and left. We were chased across the pub by a member of staff with a card reader to pay for the half Guinness that was settling (the first drink on my order) he said I had to pay as it was wastage? Like nothing ever gets spilt behind the bar??.I reluctantly paid for it and asked for an additional empty half glass in order to share it so we could quickly move on. We moved out side and found the empty half glass was dirty and the Guinness had a black hair in the head. We poured it down the drain. We love Keswick and the people are lovely, friendly and accommodating. So please don’t waste your money at the Lake Road Inn. There are so many better establishments than here!! Avoid!! As a party of seven there for food and drinks we would have spent £200+, so their loss!! We had a lovely meal at the Pack Horse Inn. Lamb burger special was tremendous!!! I highly recommend the Pack horse inn, the pheasant, or the George. I can only hope The lake Road Inn falls into administration and a decent proprietor takes it over. Harsh but fair.

The state of this place continues its sad decline. Standards have dropped significantly since my last visit a couple of months ago. The men's toilets are an absolute disgrace. There's one serviceable cubicle- but the toilet bowl is hanging off the wall and the door lock has been bodged up so many times it barely provides the necessary privacy. The stench from the urinals is so bad - you can tell when the toilet door opens as it wafts into the pub. Not really what you want to be smelling when you're eating and drinking- it's bad enough when you have to go to the toilet . The staff are great but completely up against it as there are so few of them. Dirty glasses pile up on tables untouched. This place is desperate for a makeover. I for one won't be rushing back. I know the beer is cheap but, I'm afraid I'd rather pay "proper pub" prices and have a degree of comfort rather than sit in a what effective looks and smells like a cattle market. Come on 'Spoons. You can do much much better than this.
