Lovely meal had by all Saturday night. Just surprised wasn’t busy horrible weather that night so maybe that’s why. The food was brilliant proper home cooked chips and my chilli was excellent. Two of our party had the Cumberland sausage and said it was excellent too. Even bought fresh eggs to take home with us. Booked a table for another night as we were so impressed. The staff and service was also very impressive. Thank you.

Friendly traditional country pub with a good range of real ales and reliably good food; beer garden; caravan park.Even on a dreary mid-week evening you'll find plenty of regulars here gathered around the bar, creating a chatty and cheerful atmosphere. You’ll be greeted by a cosy fire roaring most of the year. Recently we were in on a Thursday evening for their quiz night, and another evening for their open mic night.The Wellington serves meals noon and evenings — Wednesday through Sundays. They have Sunday roasts and a good vegetarian selection. On a recent evening our group all enjoyed our meals; we had a steak and jacketed potato, fish & chips, steak & haggis pie, a vegetable nut-roast, and a vegetable Wellington.In addition to real ales, traditional spirits, wine by the glass or bottle, they also have Jim, Jack and The Captain (Jim Beam bourbon whiskey, Jack Daniels whiskey and two Captain Morgan rums).The premises are very clean and tidy, staff very friendly and prices are very reasonable. We are regulars at the Welly, does it show?

Two of us had the steak and haggis pie, chips and peas, with a pot of gravy.....mmmmmm! (would recommend that to anyone!) and the other two had the fish and chips. There was plenty on the plate as well. Price wise, very reasonable. Mind you, I think mine and my mates drinks bill was more than two meas....which the wives like to point out to us, ha ha!

Family group of 8. When the roast dinners came out we thought there was a decent amount of food on the plate, then we realised those were the children's portions! Tender roast beef, perfect Yorkshires, followed by amazing sticky toffee pudding. I think the bill was just over 80 pounds, including drinks, so extremely reasonable too. Can't wait to go back!

Booked a table for four for Sunday lunch, we arrived a little early to a warm welcome & our table waiting for us. We order our drinks at the bar then sat down at our table & had a look at the menu which is just the right size for the covers/ size of the place, the menu covers all food choice & all at a great price too. We ordered the roast beef, Cumberland sausage, fish & chips & the welly burger. All our meals came out hot & well presented & fantastic portion size too. The roast beef was beautiful & very tender, we all enjoyed our food & left very happy customers & being an ex chef with very high standards says a lot. We will definitely be back.

When booking we were advised by the very friendly girl on the phone that it might take a while to get the order out depending on what the order was so I told everyone to go for the Sunday roast........nobody took my advice but the wait time was not unreasonable and everybody seemed to enjoy, they allowed substitutions like chips instead of veg, deserts were delicious and the real ale (Trooper") was excellent, the chocolate desert was delicious and shared about but everyone was struggling to eat any more.

As always I give a unbiased opinion. And honest. Had Sunday lunch. roast beef. Went there on recommendations from this site. I can't review all the menu. So this is based on sunday lunch only. Good beers. Standard country pub. Good fire. Good service. And staff. Good beef. But over cooked. Good selection of veg nicely done. Soggy Yorkshire pudding. But ok. Sadly gravy tasted a bit on the powdered side. Good points. Hot. Clean. Good value. And the puddings are big...and looked delicious. Good menu choices.would benefit from A little less roasting. And a slice more of the beef Would help. Mash could have been smoother. Deep fried roast potatoes,? You do get a good portion. I would go again. But this could be great with a little tweak or two. But give it a go.

Two years ago we moved to the outskirts of Carlisle. My husband enjoys a couple of pints and a good chat. We found a really quaint pub in the nearby village of Great Orton, The Welli as it is affectionately known. Barry, the landlord is very friendly, hospitable, quick witted and good company. The food is pub grub, but very tasty, the chips are the best. Children are always welcome and they have a beer garden. In the winter there is always a welcoming log fire. One evening last Christmas, our "Prostate Cancer Support Group" spent a fantastic evening enjoying a traditional Christmas dinner at The Welli. Barry had transformed the pub into a Christmas wonderland. We had fairy lights, candles glowing, crackling log fire and great company. The food was so good, we have booked again this year. He works very hard to make your evening special.

Non of your overpriced nouvelle cuisine -- just home cooked, down-to-earth food that was beautifully cooked and presented.

A friend and I took a run out from Carlisle today and decided to stop at the Wellington Inn for a bite of lunch. Neither of us had been there before but we weren't disappointed. You have to mind your head on the way in because of the low door frame, then there are beams galore and there was a roaring fire, very atmospheric and cosy. The menu was simple but good and the food was very tasty, plentiful and very good value for money. If I had one criticism it was that the food took a while to come but we weren't in any hurry and enjoyed the fire and lovely atmosphere.

We were lucky enough to win a free sunday lunch for two, and were a bit sceptical at first, I mean who gives away good quality tasty free food.... well I can honestly say The Wellington Inn ... Great Orton.... Carlisle. We were very warmly welcomed ... the coal fire was a treat, we had the roast beef... did not need a knife it just melted in the mouth ... the whole meal was hot tasty and well presented on a very large plate... while there we scanned the menu ... which had a bit of everything on it ... your usual steak ... gammon ... fish ... but the steak and haggis pie caught my partners attention ... and i quite fancy the broccoli and cauli cheese bake....the meat is supplied by the local butcher and he has a very good reputation in the area so you know you are getting the finest of meat .... if you are ever in the area .... give this little gem a visit .. its a must.......

Visited this evening with the family and had a fantastic two course meal. The food is all cooked fresh with local produce, the staff are friendly and make you feel very welcome. The pub is warm, cosy and very clean. Barrie and Kirsty are doing a brilliant job and we will be back again soon.

We stayed in our caravan on the little site they have behind the pub. We were made to feel welcome and the site was very clean and tidy. Plenty of space to pitch and put up the new awning. Our dogs were allowed too which makes it a must re-visit for us. The pub has a nice relaxed atmosphere with a good menu and is exactly how a pub should be. Pretty beer garden too and easy access into Carlisle for good shopping.

A great little find in what seems to be an area difficult to find lunch in at a reasonable price.Very pleasant country pub, with a good and very simple menu, the food was excellent. My baked potato was well cooked and the tuna filling very tasty, all served with a very fresh salad. My companions chilli was also very tasty. Would definitely go back there.

Excellent friendly service. Particularly welcoming with our two children. Atmosphere was friendly amd relaxed. Food was good (nothing fancy), reasonably priced and decent sized portions. Left with a smile on our faces and would certainly return again.

We arrived rather late for lunch having been recommended to try the Wellington. The others in our party enjoyed their snack lunch, but I opted for Cumberland Sausage, peas and chips. The sausage was over cooked and tasted as though it had been cooked earlier and reheated. That said the chips were some of the best I’ve had for a pub meal. If you try the Wellington, don’t sit in the area adjacent to the door, which is draughty and noisy. Each time someone comes in the door bangs loudly. I don’t have any reason to return to Great Orton, but if I do I’ll dine before going.

We visited The Wellington recently and thought it was lovely! Exactly as you would expect a country pub to be. The couple running the pub were very friendly and made us feel really welcome. I had the spicy chicken goujons with chilli dip, it was beautiful and perfectly cooked. My partner had the cumberland sausage which we were told comes from the village butcher, it was really tasty. Both came with chips and a lovely side salad.A nice range of drinks to suit everyone, I had a fruit juice as I was driving. My partner had a pint of the real ale. He ended up having 3 pints!The prices were good. The menu was good, as you would expect in a country pub!The place was clean, and very cosy with a lovely open fire.We will definately be back to the Wellington.

We were really thrilled to find this lovely welcoming,warm traditional country inn on a chilly November day.Sitting by the log fire we studied a mouth watering menu choosing the Robinsons beer battered fish,chips and mushy peas which we really enjoyed.Unfortunately driving prohibited us sampling the wide selection of real ales.We will certainly return to try them on a future visit.Thankyou to our lovely hosts.

This is your typical village pub, with a range of traditional pub food.I had Steak and Haggis Pie, my wife Chicken Goujons my elder son a Huge Wellington Burger, and my youngest had Chiken Nuggets.All were fantastic, the portions were large providing excellent value for money - but this made the wonderful sweets a challenge!Staff were vey attentive, and the atmosphere friendly.

I went the to Wellington for my 21st birthday it was brilliant there was 12 of us and everyone enjoys it very much. The plates were full of food and was hardly able to eat it all! The atmosphere was great there was a man playing the accordion and there were regulars in having a drink and a dance. There was another little party going on too and we all joined on together it was great music great service and to too it off was a great birthday for me was very special! Could not think of why anyone would fault it!
