The best restaurants in Wetheral Carlisle North West

Staying at local caravan and motorhome site. Thought we’d support local charity Oak Tree Animals’ Charity. Had delicious generous sized homemade cheese scone, raspberry scone and coffees served by friendly staff in a pleasant clean welcoming environment. Bonus dog walk opposite site with dog activity ares and amazing views.

Had afternoon tea at Warwick Hall today with 3 friends. Everything was lovely, fresh and home made sandwiches, quiche, scones cream and jam and an assortment of cakes, pot of tea plus glass of prosecco. Would definitely recommend.

Just absolutely perfect!! From the lovely welcome, the friendly service, brilliant atmosphere, all homemade cakes which is very rare these days, great tea, and the loveliest Christmas cake served with cheese if you wanted it (yes I did) which I tucked into while reading my slimming magazine!! You have something very special ladies. Also while your visiting the cafe you should tie in an Indian Head Massage with Zoe above The Posting Pot at Enliven Therapies.

We visited on 29 Sep 2024, booked for 6.45pm. Lovely looking restaurant, and staff were great. Food was disappointing for the price unfortunately. The wife had the mozzarella and roasted peach salad starter. My wife enjoyed this, I thought it was ok but the mozzarella balls could've been fresher. I had the calamari. It looked lovely, but tasted only okay as the squid also could've been fresher. The wife had the bang bag cauliflower mains. The sauce was nice but rice was a little too hard, The cauliflower was done in a crumbly batter, which would've been nice if crunchier. The problem probably was that the cauliflower was very soft, and it was mixed through the sauce, therefore softening the batter. I just had fish and chips as I already had the other 2 options recently elsewhere; Sunday roast and lamb with mint. The fish was cooked nicely and not overcooked. However, it would taste better if salted or seasoned before battering and frying. It was incredibly oily too. The mushy peas wasn't anything special at all, nor the tartar sauce. We shared a mango Panna cotta. I prefer Panna cotta to be lighter weight but it was still okay. The short breads with them seemed a bit random to me, really didn't compliment the dish plus were very mediocre. The 2 course was £25. The 3 course was £30. I just felt it wasn't worth the price. We chose this restaurant as it has really good reviews, and was near the motorway at the right time as we were driving up from Liverpool back to Glasgow. I'm not sure if Fini's is a restaurant that runs there all week long or just part of the time. If only part of the time, it is not clear. If it is all week, I'm very disappointed with the food. Plus, why was a Sunday lunch menu available only for 6.45pm? Thankfully the staff were nice and it was a lovely clean venue.

Beautiful food in lovely environment, served by friendly staff.

Always a great meal and service is second to none.

❌ Not LGBQTIA+ FRIENDLY I'd like to give The Wheatsheaf the benefit of the doubt and believe I'd caught it on an off day but, being the second time I've been in and had the same experience from staff and punters alike, the conclusion I arrive at is that this is neither an LGBQTIA+ or Disability friendly establishment. A pub, I reckon, is the center of a community, a place of hospitality for the "public" which means anyone and everyone irrespective of class, age, gender, sexuality, ethnicity, and disability. If you're reading this review and thinking "just the opinions of an incomer", I'd just like to underscore that I am Cumbrian, born, bred and raised. And Whilst this may not be the village I grew up in, or the city I lived in for another 8 years, it is where my family and friends live. Whilst it upset me to be treated with hostility and derision in my home county, it upsets me more to think that others visiting and passing through could experience that kind of prejudice and frostiness I did at The Wheatsheaf. Do better Cumbria.

The staff were very friendly and efficient. However, I agree with others that for the price I was expecting better food. We went on a Sunday and had various meals either from the Sunday roast menu and the main menu. All of which was priced at bistro pub prices, so I was disappointed that it was basic pub food with a small amount of bland vegetables. Very generous portions of the rest of the food though.

From arrival to departure our Christmas Day dinner choice was exceptional. Nothing was too much trouble, even down to my daughters request to have chicken nuggets and chips 🤣 Our whole families meal was absolutely perfect, considering how busy the restaurant was it surpassed our expectations. We cannot wait to return and enjoy the delicious food and impeccable hospitality again, so much so that we have pre ordered for our NYE dinner 👌 Khans keep doing what you do as you are all amazing, from our family to yours a massive thank you 🙏🏽 🥰

Great service by staff. Very helpful. Thanks to Beppe and Mateo for help at breakfast. And Adam for a chat. Felt well looked after. Stayed with a dog so unfortunately only in standard room. It is a 3 star room. The shredded towel was indeed replaced at once. Wish we could stay in better accommodation with our dog. Pool and saunas ok. If it wasn't for the rooms, it would be a good 4 stars.

Lovely surroundings. Great meal.

Afternoon tea a bit short on savouries only one each. No offer to fill up teapots.

Was spending the w/e in Cumwhinton at a dog agility competition and needed to refill on vittles. Saw this fantastic pub from the main road so wandered down. Opens (Sat) at 5pm, check website for other opening times. Great menu and specials board, all reasonably priced. My partner chose the fish pie, with root mash, veg and sml crusty baguette and I plumped for the steak and ale pie. Both were beyond delicious. 2 drinks and 2 mains, £35 Would definitely visit again and would not hesitate in recommending. Has a small car park, and beer garden.

Cafe wasn't busy bit the food took a ridiculous amount of time to arrive . Don't recommend this place.
