The Blackbull Egremont in Copeland

When we visited the pub was not busy but we waited more than 30 minutes for food. When it came it was awful. My fries were not cooked correctly - some were hot, others cold ( not hard to shove frozen fries into the fryer!) The wrap was really cold and the chicken inside had a strange texture. The sauce in the wrap was tasteless and obviously out of a bottle. My husband's chips were greasy. I always think it's a shame when you order food and when it comes you know you could have cooked it better for half the price! I've called this review alternative universe because what I experienced is so far removed from most of your other reviewers. I can't have visited the same pub!! I cannot recommend this establishment, save your money and cook your fries at home!

I'm not from the area but when I'm visiting, I often make a bee-line for this place as a treat. It's quite pricey and portions aren't huge but the chips are possibly the best I've ever had. Delicious again on a recent visit. Great stuff.

Service slow even when there's no one waiting to be served. Some having to wait as staff mopping the floor. Staff in a hurry to tidy up. Half seating area blocked off, despite the other half being full with over 1.5hrs of opening time to go. Other areas mopped as people leave. Toilet not accessible to customers for up to an hour before closing due to early cleaning again and the excuse is use of strong chemicals. Toasties unavailable for heating over 3/4hr before closing as staff have turned off the warmer. No cakes available from approx 4.30 as they have been put away, the excuse is limited staff and time. Over all not left feeling welcome to go in for anything never mind to sit in.

Amazing food we all 3 burgers and a lassanga all cooked to perfection and so tasty aswell 😋

Just popped in on the off chance and had the most amazing Sunday lunch sharing platter. It was delicious. New owners 3 weeks ago and rally impressed.
