The best restaurants in Allerdale North West

This cafe is in a great position for walkers and cyclist exploring the Borrowdale valley and it's useful it if you want a quick coffee. We had coffee and cake which was ok without being excellent. But beware, the owners/staff have a very unaccomodating almost mercenary attitude to visitors to the cafe. Lots of smiles, but you can't use the loo or get some tap water for your water bottle unless you've bought something (expensive). My husband summed it up; "You can just hear Basil Fawlty saying "yes, well, that's cost me hasn't it!"". Also they don't allow dogs and any dog owner will tell you what that suggests. Sorry, some staff training is needed - Manuel has obviosuly left.

Amazing food- all home made. Lovely staff and great room. Will happily come back in future. Thank you

Why do staff who so obviously do not want to be there still work there. Never been served by such miserable and rude staff! Go elsewhere if you don’t want to do the job!

only one serving at lunch time, queuing out the door. Over 30 minutes to get a slice of pizza that was cold and was charged 3.80 for pizza and drink when sign said 3.35. Very bad, never again

Great little cafe .to sit and watch the world go by . Visited this cafe 3 times this weekend. Absolutely love maryport harbour . Lovely friendly staff .

Popped in while killing time and stayed a while. Large upstairs much bigger than you first realise. Friendly and modern. Decent prices

Superb service from Alan and Michael a credit to the company friendly polite and professional, i reserved a table with Alan earlier on day as daughter likes a quieter seating spot and was greeted by Michael when went for meal at 5pm, lovely comfy booth seating and the place was clean and inviting ,ordered from menu and snack sheet and it didn’t take long to arrive,food hot and delicious and drinks spot on, in fact food plenty we got more than we thought so got doggy box to take back to lodge.very full and overall great service all round.Thank you.

What a disappointment. No children's starters, no cheese or soup starters, several main course items not available. We weren't told any of this before ordering, would have been helpful to be told when given menus so we didn't waste time deciding on food choices that weren't available. Asked for wine... they didn't have any, sold out. What we did have was ok, but a touch on the pricey side. Whilst I couldn't complain about what we got, the pub lacked good customer service, when I went to pay the bill the waitress was too busy washing dishes in the kitchen to see so had to go into the bar area to pay. Not sure when they sold out of everything as we were there at 6pm on a Saturday evening and at the time of arrival the only people in the restaurant.

Coffee shop it is not . It is more like a greasy spoon cafe. Seems to exist mainly for all day brunches and not coffee and cake. Choice of cake in the ‘ coffee shop’ limited unlike in the bakery downstairs. Loos clean but tables were not . Staff friendly enough but lack of menu information letting them down. Some menu boards above serving area seem to be covered by bin bags . Vibes of a seventies cafe . Sad .

Great chippy, by far the best I've found in the area since moving to Cumbria 18 months ago. I've had several take aways from it and am happy to drive past closer restaurants to get a chip shop dinner from here. The Cumberland sausage is great.

Absolutely fantastic meal. I had the salad. So well presented. Plenty of food. Fantastic Desserts spolled for choice !!! Lovely . Staff Always visit when here as we’re from Norfolk wish we had places like this near us 😃

My friend and I called in here whilst in Wigton and had a bacon buttie and a barista butties both of which were delicious and cooked perfectly. I had a latte which was lovely and my friendcsaid her cappuccino was one if the vest she'd had. The staff were so helpful and friendly and we will definitely return.

Enjoyed our late breakfast here. Everything was cooked perfectly, decent sausage, and bacon with egg, hash brown, black pudding and toast. Screens up, clean place, friendly staff, definitely recommended.

This restaurant is now called schuhag the food is very very tasty the place is clean and well cared for and friendly staff

Lovely staff with a cheery welcome. Very clean everywhere which was abit surprising considering they welcome 'dogs & muddy boots ". Mum & I shared a tuna melt panini with Lovely salad garnish & rosemary & sea salt fries. And a pot of tea for two which was more than enough giving us 3 cups each. All for just £17.40. Excellent value 👏
