The best restaurants in Ewanrigg Allerdale North West

Drinks were good. Food was (aparrently) excellent, and the service was perfect. Oh, and thank you for not telling me the result of the Formula 1 race - much appreciated, young man!! A great place to visit

Here we found the best coffee on the Cumbrian coast, in a cosy and quirkily decorated cafe. It seemed to be frequented by all age groups, too, so no-one would feel out of place.

Had a table booked for 12:30 Sunday lunchtime. Upon arrival we were alarmed that there were only approx 6 people seated for lunch. We noted how cold the room was and were hesitant to take our coats off. The lady who was waiting on took our order and the starters soon followed. My partner had the soup which was barely warm and very watery. It was served with a brioche hotdog roll which was very odd. I ordered the patè which itself was nice but was again very oddly served with branston pickle! The starters left us underwhelmed and we considered just paying and leaving. Instead we ordered the Turkey dinner and pie of the day. My partner said his pie was beautiful but the chips with it were a mixture of chips, wedges and all shapes as if a child had chopped them. My Turkey dinner was just ok. The Turkey was obviously bought in ready sliced and the pigs in blankets were tasteless. The veg however was tasty. We decided not to have a dessert and quickly paid and left. A very disappointing visit and will not recommend.

Great friendly service, fish and chips spot on

Perfect fish, chips and mushy peas. A very generous sized fish, in a light, crispy batter. Pleasant staff, and cooked from fresh.
