The Deli Box Carlisle in Carlisle

Lovely refurbished restaurant after floods. Most enjoyable crayfish tail and smoked salmon salad. Table overlooked pond with moorhens. Very friendly staff and varied menu including light bites to full lunch. Worth a visit.

This Northerner drifted across this gem by accident and my word it did not disappoint him folks. Upon arrival I was made more than welcome by the lovely ladies who work there. They then ambushed me with the amazing food selection, I made a joke about asking them to read it out again (lol). I went for their new toasted tortilla parcel; a divine mixture of spiced Bombay potatoes, yoghurt mint, pineapple and relish. Fabulous. Coffee brilliant too. Would recommend to a friend and I'll be going back that's for sure.

A wonderful time yesterday celebrating our mums 80th birthday. Excellent food and staff and the party of 14 very well catered for, would definitely recommend. Favourites from our food choices were the pea risotto, pulled pork wrap and fish and chips (excellent chips!). Thank you for a memorable afternoon.

Lovely local pub with delicious food and friendly atmosphere. We had a 'low key' birthday celebration. Perfect balance of friendly chat and delicious food.

Found this place by chance and what a find. I'm not vegetarian but tried the butter nut squash curry and rice and walked to the river to eat it. All packaging (including knifes and forks) bio-degradable. The curry would have given my local curry house a good run for the money and not one bit of plastic in site. Outstanding value for money and a lovely view over the river. In none Covid times we would have gone to the pub but this was one of the few gains from this outbreak, a great curry overlooking the river. Only regret was I didn't buy one of those brownies.
