The Wild Duck in Copeland

The 1st time we here here we were happy with our meal but when we were there this week we were really disappointed the chips were as if they had been reheated the chicken pieces were 2 tiny pieces very disappointed also the pot holes in the car park are a danger to your vehicle

Just had lunch, the staff were lovely ,polite and friendly. Food was great and plenty of gluten free options we have been before and will definitely go again

Turned away apparently busy 7 to 8 tables free just because me dad was wearing high vise and looked a bit rough really we are nice people and was ready to splash the cash 💸

6 friends met for lunch, all just having a main course. I had the House Grill. I can eat but this was huge and cooked to perfection. Others had Steak Pie and Sizzlers. All of us really enjoyed our food and the service was exceptional. Definitely go back.

Mid week meal, table of 4 friends. Very extensive menu and great value. Girls serving were pleasant and the food came out quickly. I went for chicken and bacon in a creamy leek sauce was very good and loads of it! Downside - we sat chatting after our meal for about 45 mins, no one came to clear plates, offer more drinks, desserts or coffees. We all paid less than £20 for a main and a drink, had the service been more attentive our bill would have potentially been alot more! Missing a trick here I think - nice young staff but they need more guidance to get more money in the till! We will be back and would recommend, just fell a little short on the service side for me.

Early Friday evening meal. The meal itself was not bad, but the service was so ignorant of what is required. Not the fault of the young inexperienced staff but the fault of the pub management. You cannot serve the customers in your restaurant with your back to them while constantly looking at your phone. Almost like kids with no parental guidance. If the Wild Goose had an experienced supportive and knowledgeable front of house then the quality of the service would be greatly improved. They require a strict parental matriarch to step up and command the service. Robert Whitehaven

Visited here with my daughter today for lunch and was not disappointed the three young members of staff were all lovely very polite and attentive and the food was absolutely compliments to the chef will definitely be back soon.

Fantastic meal. we tried the menu that you can purchase as many courses as you want. Was amazing, very large portions for price. All lovely and hot and very tasty. The service was amazing as usual!! Will be back before schools return back!!

Great food will definitely be back

13 of us went to the duck for a 89th birthday meal and we weren't disappointed! Pre booked most of the meals as there were a lot of us x chose the duck as when my mum was alive her and dad went most Sundays so thought it an appropriate choice x food was brilliant fresh tasty and plenty of it x the 2 young waitresses that were serving us were staff to be proud of x thanking all concerned for making my dad's birthday special .

Food and service were excellent.

Lovely little country pub. We've been a few times and the food is always tasty and great value for money, portion sizes are fantastic too!

Been several times now and it has a cosy atmosphere and the the staff are all really pleasant and helpful. Got a mixed grill which was plentiful as you can see from the photo all the meat was cooked as I liked but the big plus was the black pudding which was superb and cooked to perfection

Nice meals bit on dear side for a shandy 4.95

This was a return visit as we discovered this wonderful pub last year. The food is great and excellent value. This year we took our daughter, son in law and two children (3yrs and 1yrs) The staff catered well for the little ones.

Fantastic place, lovely food. Excellent service

Lovely food nice cosy pub highly recommend

Good food friendly staff what more can you ask for at a reasonable price aswell.

Fantastic food and service, highly recommend. Will be back very soon. Loads of selection on menu to try!!! Best chips ever!!

Great meal the steak was done to perfection and tasted fantastic and with real chips as well

Had lunch yesterday and the menu is extensive, we love having a big choice of mains. The portion sizes are not small, all our food was piping hot and delicious. The meat was tender and vegetables cooked perfectly. But the icing on the cake for me were the girls who served us and took our orders, so friendly, so polite and courteous. They were a credit to their parents.

Great food, good selection, big portions and friendly staff 👌

An amazing meal as usual.Always go when I travel to see family . Really wish they did delivery to Chester would order every week🤣

Great to see real chips, instead of the frozen kind, most places seem to have these days, food great and plenty of it 😁

Always hot and tasty food fantastic you are always made welcome would certainly recommend the wild duck

Lovely food, staff and price, a little too much but still gets my vote 😊

Fantastic food, fantastic service and lovely atmosphere 😀 👌

Lovely place for a meal staff very friendly

Lovely place for a nice meal , very welcoming , would recommend 👌

Lovely meal with family ....... good food and service xxxxx

Lovely friendly staff, service was good, food was 10 out of 10. The meals were very tasty and plentiful!! Only downfalls was a couple came in carrying 2 dogs. Fine let dogs in but they should be on ground on leads. Not at height were hairs could come ont o food. Also there was quite a draught from the door leading to the toilet, could maybe do with sorting.

First disappointment was no real ale on tap so it was Worthingtons or lager. Met by very friendly staff who showed us to our table promptly and they were very efficient and friendly. Meal took around 20 minutes to arrive, no problem with that. The meal itself, my wife had halumi burger and I had surf and turf. Large portions, scampi was small and the steak. Although well cooked wasn’t the best cut, plenty chips and overall I got what it said on tin. My wife’s burger was again plentiful in size, cheese too thick and became overpowering, mushroom was nice and bread although not sure on first examining was ok. So we are sat on the fence, for me not having a real ale on will mean we won’t return not because if service or food.

Been here many time amazing sundsy dinners love the food xx

Best ever roast beef and Yorkshire pudding gravy f###k Yorkshire and Leeds Could not fault food and service I will be back

Everything was amazing! As usual!!!

Good value for money great service lovely food.

Great food. The staff were very warm and welcoming. Going back this week.

Good food lovely service good portions lovely cozy atmosphere

Great food. Large portions a low price, well worth a visit 👍

Really great food in lovely surroundings. Staff are helpful and friendly and the menu is fantastic, lots of choice. Large carpark too

Booked in for evening meal while on holiday in the area. Excellent meals, large portions Would definitely recommend but would ask for a different table next time as there was constant 'traffic right next to our table from a group seated in the annexe with children and teenager running past. Not really the fault of the staff but it did detract from what would have been a 5* rating. Could not fault our meals and the pub is dog friendly.

Food was lovely and staff were very attentive. Couldn't ask for more.

Food looked okay, wish I could have tried it but they have a strict 2 dog only rule and whilst we were getting our dogs out the car, someone pulled up with their 2 dogs and beat us in there. Not a good rule. Dog friendly usually means all dogs, not just selected ones. Will not be coming back here after driving miles to get there, it looked like it was abandoned from the outside with no sign, the letters had come away from the building, there's not much lighting besides a flickering light outside.

Sunday dinner was beautiful but the gravy was watery. The table was very sticky too. The girls serving were all amazing.

Brilliant food. First class staff. No complaints only praise. Went here a couple of times whilst staying nearby on holiday. Dog friendly which is essential as you can't leave dogs alone in the holiday let. It could do with a bit of a tart up on the outside as kerb appeal isn't the best and gives you the impression this isn't a top notch food establishment - that is until you get inside and realise it's ace 👍

Great selection of food, excellent sized portions and very attentive and polite staff. I'd highly recommend a visit. Many thanks to you all for a very pleasant evening.

Cannot fault the food or the atmosphere. Small place, intimate dining. You csn actually chat without being drowned out by music.

Great pub food and excellent customer service. Perfect chips!

Brilliant food, service and prices. Huge portions of everything. If in the area.... not to be missed.

Decided to eat out as it was such a lovely evening and really made the right choice going to the Wild Duck. Food was excellent and reasonably priced the garlic mushrooms and sizzling chicken in sweet chilli sauce was an excellent choice. Food looked so good forgot to take a photo. Service was totally outstanding and all the staff couldn't do enough to make you feel welcome and relaxed. Thanks for such a lovely relaxing night. Will definitely be back very soon.😊

I booked a table for 13 of us to celebrate a birthday. The service was outstanding and the food was delicious. There wasn't a single criticism from anyone around the table. We have eaten here a couple of times and we will definitely be back again.

Booked a table for 3 on a works trip and all the food was very nice with great service from 2 ladies who was busy but polite. Mixed grill was a very large meal and struggled to eat it all. Would highly recommend.

This place was highly recommended to us so we popped in for a quick drink and to check the place out for another visit. There was no non-alcoholic drinks available when we asked (and overheard another couple who were pregnant ask for non-alcoholic as well), also no crisps or bar snacks of any form. When we asked to see the food menu (to see what was available for next time) we were told there are no tables available. We said our intentions just to see the food available and were asked "but why, why not just look next time when we book in" .......... The food did smell good and looked like lovely large portions - just not sure how enthusiastic we now are to go back and try the food following this visit. Minor side complaint, asked to use the WiFi, couldn't connect, we were told it was both of our phones that must not be working, only for the card machine not to work when we tried to pay - because it couldn't connect to the WiFi.

Lovely place to eat. Parking Available, staff are friendly and the food was good - classic pub food. We booked about an hour in advance on a Monday.

pre ordered food ,my family had taken my mum and me for our birthdays. food came and the waitress accidentally tipped a whole plate of mushroom stroganoff down my back it filled my designer bag [my birthday gift from my hubby] my new clothes , hair and my mums coat they brought me a few serviettes to wipe down my clothes not much help really they just tidied away and continued serving .Couldn't cut the lamb my mum left it my salmon was overdone and dry grateful for sauce ..was really looking forward to today my son paid the bill and not even a complimentary drink sometimes an apology isn't enough the state I was in .I had to go and buy a dress from matalan as we'd came from carlisle for the day , worse birthday ever !!!!

Food was nice, well priced and portions were HUGE

Absolutely spot on keep it up lovely food il b coming back friendly staff big portions nice beer p.s only thing is that your Leeds United fan ur getting relegated again haha

Found this pub by chance as so many in area shut on a Tuesday….. fab good pub three course lunch for an amazing £15.85 and the two young ladies waiting tables offered friendly and excellent service….. only one criticism if you have any spare cash in a difficult hospitality world use it on the ladies….. def will be back …

Fabulous food and service. Very good value for money! Highly recommend!! Home made chips delicious!! Garlic mushrooms to die for!!

Absolutely fantastic value for money

The waiting on staff gi above and beyond excellent customer service team, food excellent, only downfall a crying child behind us spoiled our evening

Came here for a friend's birthday. We were sat in the private back room which they had let us decorate. We had preordered in advance. I ordered the mushroom & haloumi burger. It was quite nice but got very sickly quite quick meaning I couldn't finish it all. It was an ok visit but nothing exceptional.

Good home cooked food with proper chips great portions at a fair price.

Lovely little dins. Portion sizes are huge and the staff are so friendly. Definitely worth a visit.

Disappointing food left from dinner all over floor half our meals dident turn up also cold not there best hour unfortunately I did not eat my my soup as it was tainted with a hint of Brockley been before always had better service disappointing

Had a lovely evening at the Wild Duck. Service was very good and good was excellent.

Lovely food, brilliant service and dog friendly. Highly recommend this place, it was a favourite on our trip.

The wild duck i book a table for 7pm the service was absolutely amazing there kept us updated on the food with a free round of drinks as there was a incident with the chief and he/she had to go home the meal was absolutely beautiful top class restaurant and dog friendly got the dog a drink of water straight away.

Huge portions, tasty food and great value make the Wild Duck a place I'll be visiting more often.

Greate service food lovely and plentiful wife had Butterfly Chicken I had gaman no room for pudding would definitely recommend

Very good excellent value good service

Well priced quality food, a good pint and fantastic service.

A party of 9 stopped here for drinks. It was 1.30 but the website said it closed at 2. 5 of us arrived first with one dog and waited for the other 4 with another dog. It was quite busy and the lady who greeted was quite pleasant . We asked if we were ok to have a drink, she said that’s fine but we couldn’t order food. We ordered drinks we she said she would bring to our table so we took a seat. In the mean time the rest of our party had joined us. The other waitress brought the first drinks over, pulled a face at the dogs and said they weren’t allowed on the carpets so we moved closer to the bar. Unfortunately there was only one table that seated 4 so the men stood around our table. The waitress then said that they would have to move because they were in the way. It was very unwelcoming. We had planned to book a table for later in the week but after the reception we had received and also having seen that most of the plates that other diners had left were half full with food we made a hasty retreat. Such a shame when most hospitality businesses are already struggling. Definitely would not return, definitely would not recommend.

Attempted visit 8,4,23 at 4.47pm. After arriving after a 4mile walk we was glad to come across this pub. First glance, 2 cyclist enjoying a ice cold pint. Enter the bar to be told "bar not open till 5* confused look back at the cyclist. Was is some thing I said? Is it The way I was dressed? Returned outside to break the news to my thirsty partner and two dogs. Has that just happened? We watched the two cyclist return their 2 empty glasses back through the window to the gagging barmaid. Absolutely disgusting!! What is a dieing trade, I hope the next time I visit this beautiful place I find this dirty hole closed indefinitely. Ps, landlord or manager, check your cctv if you have it Avoid this place, it needs a good clean and decent staff. Clean the dimps outside.. Following on Annette, I'm surprised you found my dummy amongst all the dimps out side of your mucky pub!! Ps That 13mins didn't apply to the cyclist did it? Give that pub and good clean and encourage your staff to have a good wash too.

Lovely Sunday lunch. Served by friendly staff. Looking forward to visiting again soon.

What a beautiful meal and great service from the three young ladies to my family and me on my birthday

This is lovely place for food. Staff are very friendly. Food is hot and very tastie. The large onion rings are really good.

Years since we were here. Loved it meals were spot on. Quick friendly service. As good as when Sandra ran the place.

Food and service was first class, will be visiting again.

The food was lovely and portions were huge!

Chips r to die for, Garlic Mushrooms Brill, all the way from Scotland to see family they enjoyed too 😀.

Gorgeous food with a friendly service. Would highly recommend 👌

Had Sunday lunch today really good service food excellent great menu well worth a visit

Good food and very reasonably priced. Also very friendly service.

Place looked a bit worse for wear. Food was OK but nothing to shout about

Absolutely delicious food, staff were friendly and very attentive

The sizzling chicken platter with sweet and sour sauce was gorgeous, and the staff were very friendly

Amazing as always!! Thank you Steve, Annette and Amber 😊😊😊

Excellent food very poor service. Slow and forgotten about could do a lot better

Went with family for Christmas Eve lunch and was teriffic! Friendly staff really looked after us. Food was cooked beautifully and was very generous portions. Great atmosphere. Will be back soon and highly recommend!

We found the ingredients tasting the cheapest of the cheap. Cooking was ok. Service was nice and staff kind. Not trying to be petty, but value for money was very low for the area, even considering the current cost of life.

Went to visit family and they booked us here for a early birthday meal, we booked in with a 12 week old baby so asked for a quiet corner and was granted this, food was plentiful and absolutely delicious, as 4 of us we Cs really see 2hat all the different dishes we're like and chose 2 of the festive menu and 2 of the normal! The size of the plates is fab, make sure your hungry as you won't want to leave any!! We had a bottle of the house rose, and 2 drinks no space for desert but would deffo go back again, plenty of place in the restaurant even for a wheelchair if given notice

A lovely varied menu ...excellent prices. The service was friendly and efficient and the atmosphere warm and welcoming. Visited twice now and can't fault it Recommended.

We had the Xmas baguette on the special board it was lovely the staff are very friendly would definitely recommend a visit

Great meal loads on the plate and great customer service

Beautiful as always! Large portions are reasonably priced. Chips are awesome and the onion rings are like Angels halos they are so big beautiful batter and delicious. Mixed grill is huge.!! The surf and turf is gorgeous and you can't go wrong with a steak. Service is good and pleasant smiling staff. Can't fault it.

Friendly helpful staff good food including the two sausages they cooked and cut up for the dogs!!

Nice relaxing atmosphere, good staff and very nice food.

Cozy atmosphere, nice service and very good food. The portions are very large and enough for a grown man and all this at an affordable price. Would definitely come here again.
