Couldn’t really eat in as we were travelling with the dogs so ordered a takeaway. It was ready really promptly and we gad a Calzone and Lasagna. Both were delicious and really excellent value for money.

This is an unexpected little treasure of a Resturant in an unexpected location in the village of Gosforth in West Cumbria. Excellent food, great service, beautifully presented with a modern bistro type atmosphere. Highly recommended

The food was great, however as the restaurant was full and busy, the attention to customers arrival was a little slow. We had booked our table, but the previous incumbents were still in place causing a delay in being seated. This was an inconvenience, however the team made up for this by ensuring the food was delivered, well prepared and tasty in a fairly short period of time.

Great find on a wet dreary evening. The tables were all full but we managed to secure a spot at the bar. Good service and great tasting pizzas cooked in a wood fired oven. Excellent

Me and some friends dined here Tuesday night and it was perfect from start to finish!! The service was brilliant from the friendly staff who promptly took our drinks orders, then food as soon as returned with drinks! The food all came piping hot, you knew all the ingredients were fresh and everyone’s was absolutely delicious. The garlic mushrooms were the best I’ve ever had!! And the pizzas were quite possibly too!! I would recommend this place to anyone and everyone! 10/10!!

This place is a real gem in Cumbria. They have an actual wood fire oven, use extremely fresh ingredients, and their dough is just perfect! We got three pizzas and all three had delicious and unique flavor combinations. I ended with the pavlova which is honestly one of the best pavlova’s I’ve ever had. And I didn’t even get to the back patio which is just so charming as it overlooks a playground in a beautiful green field. Definitely make your way over here if you’re in the area.

Easily the best pizzas I’ve ever had! Salad and bread absolutely amazing as well. All the staff were very friendly and accommodating. Hard to find places like this in Cumbria. We chose to sit outside in the sun ☀️

Excellent food! Pre-book, we were lucky in that we got the last booking on the day but we had to eat at 17:00 as all other times were booked out. Pizza was really good, my husband had Caesar salad followed by Risotto, he said both were really good. Really pleasant staff, would definitely recommend.

The food was very good, but unfortunately the sevice was poor. On arrival had to wait 5 mins before any acknowledgement even though there were staff standing around. Nobody checked to see if our food was o.k. Had to request the desert menu which took ages to arrive. Seemed to concentrate on take aways.

This restaurant gets a lot of good reviews so we decided to book here. When we arrived there had been a mix up, which luckily was sorted out, as they had us sitting at the bar for a meal as opposed to a table, something which we personally aren't keen on, and in fact if we hadn't been able to get a table would have cancelled the booking. The restaurant was very busy and seemed a little chaotic although staff may have been new/not enough staff on. A party of 13 arrived after us which made it even busier. We ordered mixed olives to start but the olives were all the same black ones apart from one green one! ONE! The waitress put it on the table and apologised teat they had run out. I would have preferred to know this before we ordered to be honest, or at least to have had something knocked off the bill as we didn't really get what we had ordered and wanted. Main courses, partner had pasta and it was lovely, very tasty. I had Ceasar salad with extra chicken which was probably the worst Ceasar salad I have ever had. A few lettuce leaves absolutely drenched in dressing and about 3 pieces of chicken. We were served incorrect drinks , although my husband got his altered, but I left it and drank mine as I felt awkward as I could see how busy they were. To finish we didn't even get an itemised bill so couldn't see what we had paid for and if it was correct. We weren't impressed with our visit but would like perhaps to visit again to see if indeed it IS as good as others say, but as we don't live in the area it might be a while before we can do this. I don't like to leave reviews which are anything but positive but I also do like to be honest, and this is my honest review of our experience that evening.

PERFECTION. BEST ITALIAN IN CUMBRIA I never leave reviews, but this was so enjoyable I just had to. FOOD- Every dish was cooked, seasoned and flavoured to perfection. Presentation and care over the dishes was above and beyond all expectations. Service was fast and food Hot! PRICES- Everybody’s idea is different here, but to put it bluntly, for what you get it is undervalued. Many “fancy” italian restaurants whether small time or chains in the cities charge way more and are not even half as good. ATMOSPHERE - Fantastic, sitting in view of the Kitchen and open pizza wood stove, highly recommend. The whole place has obviously been created with a lot of love and passion. STAFF - Everybody was working in smooth tandem with each other, all smiling professional, efficient and even better to taste the fruits of their labours! Being an ex-sous chef myself I probably appreciate more of the work behind the counter/ scenes more than most people would do so, what a difference it really makes when the owners approach to using high quality fresh ingredients, well trained staff working brilliantly with each other and actually having being hands on themselves, it really shows and makes all the difference in the world! All the effort put in hits best with the first mouthful of food that was just bliss! My only complaint is that I wasn’t able to try out more of the expansive menu. And I won’t be coming back soon enough! Thank you to all at The Wild Olive. A food experience that will be a memory of pure joy as apposed to something forgotten about.

We came here for midweek dinner, it was busy and lively atmosphere with friendly young staff. There were some specials and a regular menu, large Pizza oven on display and working hard! We had some nice draft beer and chicken and pasta dish and a nice risotto. The portions were plentiful and the overall experience was good. Parking 2 minutes walk away in the free public carpark.

Ate in one night and started off ok but then had to wait an hour between courses. No one came to let us know there was any kind of delay, I had to go and ask after 45 minutes and saw the oven was empty, was told our pizzas were on the way though? Anyway they turned up about 15 minutes later. Tried again another night for takeaway, ordered at 5.30pm over the phone, was told it would be ready at 7.40pm, you would think 2 hours notice would be enough but we turned up to collect and order wasn't even started, had to wait another half an hour and then when we got home one of the pizzas was wrong. Food is good but not worth waiting for to be honest. They wouldn't survive if it weren't for the lack of competition in the area.

We booked to go in the evening 4 Adults 2dogs as confirmed they were allowed, we was shown to our table after sitting outside as table was not ready. Waitress took our drinks and starters straight away, arrived quickly and was very tasty, then it went down hill, we waited an hour before some one come to clear the table and bring our mains, we had to ask what the delay was, people were coming in after us, ordering and getting there mains. I don’t mind waiting an acceptable time but we were clearly ignored or forgotten, they were quick enough to bring the bill and want paying, let down could be so muck better

First of all the restaurant is absolutely lovely. The staff were quick to see to us and very friendly. I’d you’re thinking of going make sure you book. We got the stuffed mozzarella bread with chorizo to share it was delicious could not fault it. We then got a pizza each and some wedges to share these were also delicious. Big portions and great food would get pasta next time to try as someone next to us got it and it looked stunning.

I’ve visited this part of the country several times for business, and can say without reservation that this is some of the finest food in the area. The staff is extremely friendly, with a great atmosphere. This is a place where you can relax and enjoy a meal with your friends. I would highly recommend the Carbonara, Lasagna, or any of the Risotto dishes. They also have one of the best Pizzas I’ve ever eaten (try the spicy meatball, or add chorizo to their margarita pizza)!

Eventually tried to make a booking- unable to offer time. Seemed a couldn't care less attitude on the telephone. Not a recipe for a long term business?

1st time visiting , what a find , food was fit for a king and queen amazing, creamy mushroom starter was just to die for teenage son loved tomato soup. He ate all of the pizza I had the beetroot salad with blue cheese and walnut which was a nice size so I could allow for dessert. St. Clements posset from specials menu is quite honestly one of the best desserts I've ever had very comforting . Please open nearer Basingstoke in Hampshire.

There was a regular menu and a monthly menu with far more choices than the usual pizza, lasagne etc. The food we all had was tasty and freshly cooked. This restaurant is a little gem in the western Lake District and well worth a visit. It was busy on a Tuesday night so I suspect you would need to book, even post COVID. They also offer carry outs, pre ordered, so excellent if self catering nearby.

We had spent the day hiking in Wasdale and had set out late to find a place to eat. We had been turned away by every place we tried owing to the time - most places closed their kitchens at 8pm. At the Wild Olive we were told we could have a table in 30 minutes so we had a drink in the pub round the corner. Frankly we weren't expecting much in Gosforth (sorry people of Gosforth) but the Wild Olive really was excellent in terms of choice, quality and ambience. We were so impressed that we tried to book a table for the following night but they were full.

We have been trying to get here for a long time and it was worth the wait!!We didn’t have starters but shared some yummy wedges with garlic dip to accompany our mains. My husband raved about his pizza and my mushroom risotto was lovely. I didn’t quite get the thyme though, maybe some crispy thyme on top would just add that extra texture. However it was creamy and decadent. No room for pudding, maybe next time.First class though and a welcome change of scenery!!

Just visited here for the first time for a takeaway and was so glad we did! Food was so fresh and the verde pizzas so so tasty! Starters were delicious and we can’t wait for it to be open properly to have a meal there

We had supper here on a Tuesday evening. The restaurant had a lovely buzz about it, with plenty of diners and a good takeaway trade. I had the pulled harissa lamb pizza, as it sounded interesting, and I can safely say it was one of the best pizzas I have ever had. The service was attentive and efficient and all for a reasonable price ... very good value for money. I cannot recommend this restaurant highly enough ... we will definitely be back.

Al leer las críticas de este lugar, estábamos emocionados de probar este italiano y la comida estuvo a la altura de las expectativas; ¡fue encantador! Si hubiera una crítica, ¡habría sido la cantidad de aceite en la que estaba nadando la pizza de pan de ajo con mozzarella! Pero en general comida deliciosa. Sin embargo, lamentablemente no se puede decir lo mismo del personal. Al entrar, nos preguntaron si nos podían ayudar y, como explicamos que teníamos una reserva, señalaron nuestra mesa y nos dijeron "Estás sentado allí" y luego se fue; ahora no necesito que me agarre de la mano a la mesa, sin embargo, creo que los clientes deberían ser mostrados a su mesa. Tampoco se dieron muchas sonrisas y sé que es difícil ver una sonrisa bajo una máscara hoy en día, pero cuando son de plástico transparente. . . . podríamos haber visto más.Nuestro pedido de bebidas fue tomado, seguido por nuestro pedido de comida y la primera comida salió y simplemente se colocó sin preguntar quién la había pedido, así que la tomamos y la clasificamos nosotros mismos, luego pareció tomar un par de minutos antes de la siguiente. se sirvió la comida, ¿no podrían haber sido servidos juntos? ? ! ?Como se dijo anteriormente, la comida era deliciosa y después de que se llevaron los platos vacíos, una chica vino a preguntarnos si queríamos algo más, es decir, postres, pero parecía estar disgustada con nosotros TENIENDO que pedir el menú en lugar de ofrecerlo. para nosotros que nos desanima de pedir uno; ¡Parecía que estábamos pidiendo demasiado para mirar el menú del desierto!Luego pagamos y nos fuimos sin que un miembro del personal se despidiera.Para un restaurante pequeño, el servicio al cliente debería ser brillante, sin embargo, estaba completamente ausente. Es una pena. ¡Vuelva a visitar la capacitación del personal sobre servicio al cliente! No estaría buscando volver a visitarlo pronto.

Vine a pedir pizza para llevar un sábado por la noche ajetreado. Nuestro pedido estuvo listo muy rápido y fue una de las mejores pizzas que hemos tenido. La masa estaba realmente fresca y horneada a la perfección, y todas las coberturas eran increíbles y de alta calidad. Teníamos la pizza de cebolla caramelizada y queso azul y la pizza de cordero harissa picante. Ambos estaban deliciosos, ¡felicitaciones a los chefs!

Reservé una mesa usando su servicio de reserva en línea pero nunca recibí una confirmación. Decidí llamar ese día para confirmar pero, como sospechaba, no habían recibido nuestra reserva y ahora estaban completos. Colgué decepcionado y molesto, pero decidí unos minutos más tarde preguntar si podíamos reservar una comida para llevar, lo cual hicimos.El risotto de gambas y limón y la pizza fueron INCREÍBLES y me alegro de haber conseguido un lugar para llevar. ¡Lo recomiendo altamente!

Acabamos de regresar a nuestra cabaña después de comer aquí y seguimos aquí para escribir una reseña porque la comida estaba deliciosa. Se recomendó, ¡pero no esperábamos que fuera tan bueno! Espesor perfecto de la base - leña pero no fina como una oblea - deliciosos tomates y aderezos, y un hermoso queso fibroso.Como mucha pizza y estoy luchando por pensar en un mejor lugar donde comí una que aquí, ¡es tan bueno!

Due to lockdown restrictions, Truly Scrumptious has a delivery service, so this was ordered by phone, rather than a visit to the shop. Their cream tea selections are amazing! My sister ordered this for mother's day - and since we haven't seen her since October 2020, she treated me, too! Delivery was within a 2-hour time slot, and arrived in good time. Definitely recommended.

Welcoming and great homecooked food, nothing fancy, just good, tasty wholesome food. We had two Lasagnes and a fish n chips and Scampie enjoyed by all and generous portion sizes. Family and very dog friendly. A lovely atmosphere and character. We would be very happy to return. Thanks

Perfect food stop after our walk up Scafell Pike. Loved this cafe and such beautiful location next to the river. We enjoyed the lovely outside seating. Tasty food.
