The best restaurants in Broughton St Bridget's Allerdale North West

We called in midweek for lunch. We noticed 3 tables empty so went and sat down, as it is counter service. We were looking through the menu when a member of staff came over and said “have you booked”. I said no and we were asked to leave as told we needed to book - no reserved notice on any of the tables, so I found this a bit odd.

Food was brilliant, young waiter with a ponytail particularly impressed my husband. It was lovely and cosy inside with a nice atmosphere, will definitely be back. Sorry didn’t get a photo with all the veg on the side

5 out of 5 best curry I've ever had!! Try the South Indian curry so tasty. Naan bread perfect. Vindaloo was excellent. Service 10/10. Will definitely come back,

I never knew this place existed until my better half told me her parents were going for an anniversary dinner and it would be good to surprise them…..so glad we went, carvery Sunday dinner and the quality was excellent and superb value for money too! Must mention the waitress who was in on the surprise, she played her part well and kept us informed with my in-laws arrival, they loved the surprise!

First visit since new management took over. The ladies behind the bar were chatty and welcoming. Thoroughly enjoyed our food.

We live locally and visit regularly with our grandchildren who always enjoy the displays. You really need the weather to stroll the gardens

5 of us met up here, as walk in, They found us a table, It was clean, staff friendly, we ordered the food arrived with in reasonable time fresh and hot. Menu choice very good, portion sizes very good cooked well. Prices reasonable. Staff helpful and cheery. Had read a couple of bad reviews but then often there are those that look for issues. Will be back.

You could never call the Fletcher Christian a cosy pub. It is a large, modern bar with background music and multiple televisions showing sport in abundance. In pubs like this it really depends on who else is in at any particular time and we were perhaps unlucky to have to negotiate smokers congregating on the front door step and then being sat near a bunch of blokes whose language was both loud and ripe. Our lagers however were crisp and fresh and the service friendly and efficient.

This place has just changed hands and is absolutely brilliant. Very friendly, great atmosphere, food is perfect. Am going back asap.
