The Round in Allerdale

Overhyped. Staff are very nice, very welcoming, but the food was over hyped by friends and family from my point of view. My basic burger tasted very off putting, and my girls and mates burger was mediocre at best. Not worth the money for food.

Called in for a quick drink, the cocktail was delicious. Will be back to sample some food!

Great burgers 🍔 always on my three visits over the last years, staff always seam a bit too rushed and happy to help when available. Ordered a lemonade which was more sparkling water mentioned to the staff but the new drink didn't come till I'd finished my meal 😭 If it's a quick bite you want it's great but I wouldn't be going back for a full sit down meal.

Amazing burgers, both the chilli beef and the lamb special were fantastic. Fries were great and service was very friendly and quick. We got lucky with no queue at the time but it would definitely be worth waiting for

Amazing spot in the heart of Keswick. Innovative burgers which were unique and so tasty! Definitely worth the wait! Shout out to the peach margs (and also to nacho and ellie our servers and the great staff)! Really loved the personal decor and trivia around the restaurant. Must visit if in the area!

First visit after one of my besties recommended this place and I went for a birthday treat. Opened at 3pm on the day we visited and we stood outside looking at their amazing menu while we waited. By the time they opened, there was quite a queue behind us, which just shows how popular this place is. Lovely warm welcome from Nacho, who explained the menu and was very attentive during our visit. We sat in the back room which leads outside to a seating area. We LOVED this room. My husband is a runner & cyclist so we spent ages looking at the decor and watching the film they had playing, which had footage of the races in The Lakes. We chose different burgers, which were high quality and tasted divine. Chris chose loaded fries as a side and I picked the mac n cheese - wow, I could have eaten an entire huge bowl! It was delicious!! I treat myself to a peach mocktail, then a Pear Grylls cocktail - both were superb and we even had room for pud, picking each of the 2 choices on the menu. We are frequent visitors to Keswick so will definitely return to sample one of the other amazing sounding burgers - might try their special burger next time. Great find and so interesting to learn of the Bob Graham ‘Round’ Race 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

This is our second time here. Food is delicious and locally sourced. The staff are super friendly and nothing is too much trouble. It’s walk ins only but there’s an upstairs and courtyard as well. We arrived today at 3.15 and it was filling up whilst we were there. Service very efficient. We will definitely be back next time we’re in Keswick.

Ideally situated by the market square. Looks like a burger bar, and it is, but the quality of the ingredients elevates it. Great option to swap out the burger bun for a salad that i have to say was delicious. Fun and interesting.

This place is a little gem. You are spoilt for choice with the burger menu! Was hard to decide but I went for the harrisa lamb burger and partner had the summit burger. Both amazing and kimich slaw as a side perfect! Fantastic selection of cocktails and beers too. Definitely recommend if you are looking for the best burgers in the lakes!

Outstanding restaurant. Every time I visit Keswick I make sure to go.so friendly cant fault it

Great service from the get go, nothing to too much trouble. Food fantastic, staff attentive. It has everything, atomsphere to feel good factor.

Completely loved this place, amazing and unique burgers with everything I like. Super cool decor and great atmosphere

I had an amazing experience at The Round! The menu clearly indicated that most items were gluten free, but I was a bit cautious about cross contamination. Fern reassured me that the gluten free options were safe for coeliacs, even the chips! There was a great selection of vegan options too, and Fern made sure to bring over special vegan versions of the burger sauces. She was very knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely made our visit enjoyable. I'll definitely be coming back!

We came across this restaurant was looking for somewhere to eat whilst hiking in Lake District. We ordered the Katsu burger and the lamb burger with some sweet potato fries and Mac and cheese. My partner said the Lamberger was one of the best he’s ever had! Whereas for me the Katsu chicken burger needed a bit more flavour as I thought it was rather bland. And the customer service was amazing and everyone made sure we were looked after/checked in the whole time. What really stood out for me was the brochure explaining what the restaurant is about and their partnerships with local distributors. The whole concept of using local produce was great! The decor and aesthetic of the restaurants really lovely. The only negative is the long queue outside the restaurant, but I guess that’s just a testament of how popular the restaurant truly is !

Tried to go here but they had a queue outside!!! I'm not in the fashion of waiting in a ridiculously long queue to eat. Especially somewhere so rural. May come back. More likely to just go somewhere else. Would not recommend.

I was at The Round yesterday and I can’t wait to go back again. I ordered the Katsu Bells chicken burger (also a portion of crinkle cut fries and a mac and cheese to share). Burger was really nice, burger sauce on the table was so good but the mac and cheese was next level - best I’ve ever tasted, so cheesy! You have to order fries separate for an extra £4, they don’t come with the burger as they would in most other places. There’s usually a queue (and now I see why!) they don’t take bookings, you just have to wait. There was no queue last night, we just walked straight in and seated. I love that it’s dog friendly 😊

Everything about this place is first class. Incredible food, atmosphere and service. Also brilliant craft beer and cocktails. Summits Burn burger 10/10

Always great food and service at The Round. Friendliest staff in the Lakes.

Food was good but pricey. £4 just to add on fries is a bit much! But overall nice atmosphere, staff are very nice and this was dog friendly too.

3 perfect burgers with perfect loaded fries 👊🏼 Awesome beers too

Great selection of burgers to choose from and sweet potato fries were amazing. Will definitely be back

We visited as a family of 6 with 2 dogs on recommendations from a local. Burger and drinks selection was good, staff were accommodating, friendly and efficient, facilities were immaculate. Burgers were really tasty. Only issue I had was sides are extra and when I'm paying a premium price I expect sides to be included. But that's just my opinion

We had such a gorgeous evening at The Round. Everything was so amazing! Thank you to Tegan and the rest of team for looking after us. We will definitely be back! :)

Excellent burgers, well worth a visit if your in the area

Best Burgers in Keswick! There is a reason there’s a giant queue out the door for this place (but don’t worry, it moves quick as it’s walk ins only). Top quality burgers and sides- personal favourite was the Hoistsacks and the Chilli loaded fries. Dog friendly too in true Keswick style! P.S. The Peach Margarita is amazing!

The food tastes like heaven and the staff is super professional! Definitely in our TOP ONE from now!

Delicious food as always. The best veggie burgers ever! Great cocktails and fabulous, friendly service.

The food was amazing and also the service. Very friendly and nothing was too much trouble.

I'm not really a Burger fan but these was absolutely delicious 😋

Great food and very friendly staff, good value for money would definitely eat in again.

We usually visit The Round when we stay in Keswick. The burgers were very tasty and filling. I had sweet potato fries and they were so delicious. The staff are always friendly and polite. Can’t wait for another visit.

just the best burger you will ever have, great service, first choice whenever I'm in keswick,

Second visit here for food and didn't dissapoint. Burger was delicious, pure chicken breast, no fried batter etc and fries were equally delicious. Lovely atmosphere and really friendly staff..cocktails were fab too!

Really good food! I’d definitely visit again and highly highly recommend this place! The burgers were sooo good! Even the brownie was really really good

One of the best burgers ever! Amazing, such good sides and decent value for money. Liked the venue with all the lakes themes

We've eaten at the Round quite a few times and I have to say that the quality of the food is always excellent. The burgers are juicy, full of flavour and comes with an interesting mix of fillings. The burgers are playfully names after some local hills. However, I was disappointed as my favourite burger (the High Ruben) wasn't on the menu - I choose something else (Pike O'Pickle) that was almost as good, but not quite. I'm considering a petition to bring the High Ruben back !! Overall, fantastic food, brilliant service and whilst not the cheapest place to eat, is well worth a visit - easily our favourite burgers (ahead of Honest Burger and Byron). Would we go back - yes (especially if the High Ruben makes a return) Would we recommend to others - yes, and frequently do.

We were stopped over in Keswick and came across this little gem on the high street. Kerb appeal 10/10!! Inside is so cosy and the atmosphere is lovely. Great cocktails and burgers at really reasonable prices. Staff all very attentive and actually looked like they enjoyed working there! Definitely a place to stop for some good food

While having a midweek break in Brampton with family we decided on a visit to Keswick for the day. After a walk about the lake etc we decided to visit the town centre for some lunch, my daughter had heard of good reviews about The Round so decided to give it a try. We queued outside as doesn’t open until 3pm and pleased we did, first in the queue with a steady line forming behind us. We were invited in at 3 o clock by a very pleasant gent and asked to choose a seat wherever we liked. A waitress was with us within minutes taking our drinks and food order. Drinks arrived and didn’t wait too long after for our food to arrive. Wow! We chose Katsu burger, hoisinstack burger and the pulled pork topped burger served with crinkle fries and a choice of topping for an extra couple of quid. All food was outstanding. A massive 5 stars for both service and food we will definitely be visiting again when in the area and will definitely recommend to anyone looking for top class service and the ultimate best burgers around. Well done to all, I wish we had one of these near our hometown.

We walked past this Burger bar venue several times on Friday night, each time there were several people queuing outside waiting for a table. Today, Saturday, Keswick was a lot quieter and we were able to go straight in. We both had speciality burgers with cheesy fries. Very good food and excellent service. Would recommend.

Always friendly, always buzzing, always fantastic young enthusiastic attentive staff. 5 stars every time.

Really nice pub, amazing service!!🥰

Excellent burgers with good meat-free options. Sweet potato chips with lentil chilli was very good. Visited on 2 separate trips to Keswick and will come back next time.

Very happy with the burgers we had here, including the option to replace the bun with a salad which my wife really appreciated. Everything was cooked perfectly, and the garnishing with the burger, and fries, were all great. We had to wait a while to get in on a Friday night, but it was worth hanging about

Fresh takes on the Classic Burger. Great sides (crinkle chips / macaroni cheese) washed down with interesting Lager and IPA. Fab service with a great attitude topped off an impromptu visit to this little gem.

Called in today for lunch when they opened at 3pm, luckily we were near the front because the queue was long. The staff were amazing considering the place filled completely within 10 mins. Staff attentive and always smiling, food was served promptly and tasted lush. Definitely the place to go for a hearty burger.

Wow! My partner's Mum had spotted The Round's famous chocaholic sundae recommended in a newspaper and knowing how much he loves the Lakes sent a photo to him. She very sadly passed away earlier this year and he never got to try it before to give her a review. Our plan this week had been to try the sundae in her honour, and having noticed it was no longer on the menu - I emailed ahead to ask if their chocolate brownie dessert might be able to be made into a sundae instead. Nacho replied telling us that'd be no problem. When we ordered we were totally overwhelmed to realise not only had they been out especially to source the ingredients for the sundae as it was originally, but they also added it on the house as a lovely gesture. Nacho and his Team were beyond hospitable and truly went above & beyond for my partner. We'll never forget their kindness. Plus we have to mention... the sundae was DELICIOUS just like everything else we tried. A very special place ❤️

Amazing food, atmosphere and service. Extra friendly and efficient staff. It’s difficult to decide which burger to have as they all sound so tasty. Food allergies catered for without fuss and waiting staff speak to the chef about ingredients they are not sure about. Slight alterations can easily be made. I felt confident ordering a gluten and dairy free meal rather than having to forgo meat with the vegan options. The vegan options also sounded lovely. Lastly the option to swap a burger bun for a salad is a great idea. The salad is full of tasty ingredients and far from a bog standard lettuce leaf. Great value and a very tasty meal. 100% recommend.

A visit to Keswick is not complete without a meal from the round, great service followed by great food, i can recommend the whole menu twice!!

Burgers are delicious, loaded fries and nachos great too. Service is very good, quick and friendly. can get quite busy and often queues in front of the restaurant. Cocktails are great and very tasty, I can recommend the cocktail sharing board.

This place is absolutely wonderful. I came for my birthday and they gave me two free mini cocktails which I thought was so lovely ! The restaurant was packed and we did wait quite a while for food but it was worth it. The burgers aren't the biggest but you can tell the high quality of all the ingredients. Every single staff member was friendly and approachable and made the experience even better. The menu choices are fantastic. My only criticism is the chairs we sat on were plastic and a bit uncomfortable but other than that, an amazing place if you love burgers !

Went to this place for the first time this evening after reading amazing reviews. Was greeted by a pleasant member of staff on entering. No queue & offered a choice of two tables. Quick service to place our order. Food was served fast & it was presented so well & was so tasty & hot. Had a cocktail which was very nice. The decor & atmosphere is lovely. All staff very pleasant & efficient. Give this place a try you won’t be disappointed.

What a lovely place the staff/atmosphere/food were all fabulous pike o pickle burger and the great gobble went down a treat

The place is cosy, warm and clean. The staff is well organised and the hospitality was great. Would visit again. Highly recommended.

Went there on 30th November, beautiful window seat people watching drinking parachute drop and eating a fantastic chicken burger. Lovely atmosphere, delicious food and warm friendly service, a most enjoyable time with family.

We called in for dinner and had a cosmic pullover, it was mega! Deffo be coming back for one of the best burgers I’ve ever had 👍👍👍

Ace feel to the place, like how it's decorated. Staff are very cool and friendly, and the food is outstanding. Brilliant burgers and chips

I really like the Round in Keswick. The food is simple yet tasty. I find it is a little overrated but I do really like the atmosphere here. Unfortunately, you can't book here for dinner which is slightly annoying. Overall, I would highly recommend if you are in Keswick.

A queue at the door had us worried, but they sat 9 of us surprisingly quickly. Food was incredible with no one at the table disappointed, drinks where also great after a day in the hills, especially the strawberry Daiquiri. The service was top tier and again for 9 people drinks and food where served very quickly for a busy Saturday night Fantastic options for veggie and vegan which was really nice to have as a primarily burger based theme. Could not recommend enough.

Had a great burger from here and absolutely loved the crinkle cut fries! Very friendly staff too.

Queued up to get in but it was worth the wait, very tasty food and lovely staff and atmosphere. Very good vegan options as well!

Friendly staff and the food was amazing 👌😋🤤

Recently had a takeaway from the round. What a great service. Phoned answered within two rings and food ready for the time I asked. Burgers were unbelievable! We also had bacon and cheese fried and wow!!

Absolutely amazing burgers, we have been before and they never disappoint. I would strongly recommend the Summits Burns it's absolutely delicious. I would also say to get a side of crinkle cut chips as the burger alone might not fill you up. Our waitress was super friendly (we didn't catch her name) and made the whole experience that little bit better.

I visited The Round with my husband, 11 year old, 9 year old and puppy. We all absolutely loved our meals. I am gluten intolerant and a vegetarian and had loads of choice on the menu. We will definitely visit again the next time we are in Keswick.

All the staff were very friendly and attentive, Gabe was particularly helpful. We had a Beet the Pack burger and a crispy chicken burger with chilli beef loaded fries. All excellent! We were able to make ammendments to the burgers to suit our tastes, which was great! The Beet the Pack is normally a vegetarian patty, but my partner fancied trying it with grilled chicken and wasn't disappointed. No pics as we were too hungry 😅. We will be back.

We loved it here. Food was yummy, servers were brilliant with allergy advice. Yes it’s busy, yes there’s a queue, but that’s because it’s good! Two burger, two fries, two beers. £45.

We visited The Round as they offer four vegan burgers which all sounded great. I ordered a courgey pike and my husband the beet burger, crinkle and sweet potato fries. As soon as your order is taken they bring clearly labelled bottles of two vegan mayos to the table with ketchup. Our burgers arrived with a vegan label on top and looked absolutely gorgeous. The burgers were awesome, loads of flavour, lovely bread bun and we left not a morsel. Service was spot on too and The Round should be on everyone's list to visit if you like burgers.

We had the Summit's Burn and the Pullvellyn which was one of the best burgers and just what we needed after being on the road for so long! Alongside the melted cheese sauce crinkle cut fries, it made the perfect lunch The atmosphere was lovely with great use of colours in the decoration.

Great food. Worth a visit if you're in Keswick. Its a walk in only, they don't take bookings. However the queue goes quickly.

BRILLIANT!!! We would go back in a heart beat. All the staff were incredibly friendly and super accommodating. I was so pleasantly surprise that 99% of the menu was or could be gluten-free (GF beer too!). We all really enjoyed our food and can’t wait to go back again.

Great venue, fabulous staff and delicious food!

We visited the round as a family on a mini break to Keswick. Options to eat out in Keswick are rather limited and are typically pubs or the odd Italian pizzeria. We thought we would try this place as it had good reviews. We knew that we would have to queue in the evening but that the queue would go down quickly. We arrived at 7pm but had to wait about 30 mins outside and then an hour inside. Overall the food was good, but a little overpriced for what it was. The wait was longer than we would have liked. I would still recommend it though, but be aware of the potential wait time.

Great burgers, really fast service, cheesy chips were amazing and so was the Mac and Cheese. Interesting burgers and the cocktails were really well made. Good relaxed atmosphere, it's in a great spot in town. Lives up to the hype. Runs on a first come first served basis, so there can be big queues at busy times in peak season, worth the wait though.

Without a doubt, the best burger and fries I have ever had. 10/10. Super crispy crinkle cut fries I could keep eating forever. A delicious juicy beef burger, super fresh and with the correct amount of pickles (loads), great selection of sauces and you have to get the kimchi slaw! I went for the refreshing ‘parachute’ lager/pilsner and the service is spot on, everyone super friendly. This is a must go when in the Lake District ❤️ I will be returning!

Small wait to get in as they don't take bookings. Very friendly staff, great atmosphere and great tasting burgers. Looking forwards to going again when we're next in Keswick.

Brilliant burgers and beers and killer cocktails. Attentive, friendly service. Highly recommended.

I had the basic vegan burger and sweet potatoes fries, My husband had the spicy vegan burger and normal fries and my 11yo had a bespoke vegan burger (because she's fussy!) It was the best burger I have ever had. You order fries separately and unless you have a very big appetite I would suggest sharing a portion of fries. We will definitely be back.

Super tasty vegan burgers. The staff were so nice and helpful, even though it was a sorry busy night.

YUM!!!! So, you can’t book, you just turn up. There might be a little queue but go with it, it moves quickly and it’s so worth the wait. The food was totally delicious. Special mention for the chips because they are different level ! Had a great night here thanks to the amazing service. Brilliant, helpful, fun staff.

Lovely place in the heart of Keswick, food was great and service from Kieran was fantastic. Welcoming staff and lively atmosphere, the personality of the restaurant and the pride of the location oozes through in all the decor and information around. Will absolutely be going back. (Vegan and meat was fantastic).

My boyfriend and I ate here on a Saturday night, as he'd been before and highly recommended it - and I can see why! The staff are all so kind, and the interior decor really cool! The burgers are super - I had the katsu chicken one and it was so tasty. The crinkle cut chips are to die for, and we absolutely loved the beef chilli nachos. The frozen cocktails are also a big plus! You can't book, so it's first come first served, and we queued outside for a while, but can't complain as we weren't rushed when inside. Would highly recommend.

Simply the best burgers you’ll find anywhere. An absolute must go to if you’re in Keswick. Fantastic veggie options and dog friendly. Wonderfully friendly staff too. Can be busy but always get a table after a short drink at the bar.

The food quality is garbage , I had 2 burger with my wife for £11 each and the burger bread looks like from 3 weeks before and the price is super expensive , avoid this place. Junk Food

Visited twice during our stay. Exceptionally friendly staff, excellent cocktails and very tasty food. Always happy to wait for a table as it’s so good

The burgers were amazing and done exactly how we requested Staff are freindly and the upstairs dining area overlooks the pedestrian shopping area . . Beautiful

From start to finish The Round was absolutely perfect. The service was brilliant with really lovely staff. Nice simple menu with outstanding, tasty burgers. The cocktails were stunning. And dog friendly too. Can't wait to go back.

Really great burger again. Really helpful they serve food till quite late to beat the 7pm rush.

I love a burger, their burgers are worth queuing a bit for! Cocktails also yummy

Best burger you can find in UK! Great service and great atmosphere! Thanks!

Excellent food and service, plus a great atmosphere. Didn't have to wait at all.

Always a must. Banging burgers, brilliant staff. The service is second to none. Great atmosphere too. I’d share a photo of the food, to be honest I’m not wasting a moment to eat this burger. Guys amazing as always 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌👍👍

Not amazing but definitely good food, great service, dog friendly. Would recommend.

Always a que always a polite smile always a happy service. And it's in keswick....

It's possibly the best burger I've had in England, and the only place with decent food in Keswick

Great burgers, great staff and a really good atmosphere. The Pear Grylls cocktail was fab as was the mac and cheese.

Obsessed! Such great burgers & incredible cocktails. Despite not being able to book, we didn’t have to wait and got seated straight away. The menu was varied and had some delicious options. Caters for veggies, vegans and gluten free! Loved the small touches and the homemade sauces. You need to try Tommy’s Margarita! Nacho was the best - such great service from him all night long. Could have stayed for hours!

Absolutely beautiful, highly recommended, and great staff

Chicken not very warm in Spanish burger but my partners was ok. Window seat like a gold fish bowl. Shan't be going back unfortunately l.

Great burgers. V generous portion of chips

Not tried the food but the staff are rude.
