The best restaurants in Carlisle North West

I don't leave reviews often but the service is very slow, (over 30 mins for a basic breakfast) and the breakfast looked like it has been under a heat lamp all morning, dry bacon, sausage skin has gone crisp they even burned the toast

Went for lunch on a day out with a friend. All along the very long and slow moving queue, I sa signs advising to let staff know of any food allergies. I am severely allergic to gluten and dairy. No gluten/ dairy free sandwiches or options were displayed so I mentioned my allergies when I got to the pay desk. I was advised that they did have gluten free rolls, but could not make up a fresh sandwich. I was given the option of soup which I took as I was aware of a long queue behind me and I was beginning to feel stressed. A very poor experience and most definitely not allergy friendly.

I had to take my mother for a medical appointment at the Cumberland Infirmary and we decided to use the Costa Coffee before we drove home. I wish we hadn't bothered as the prices were sky high- £.2.40 for a weak cup of tea and £3.70 for a forgettable latte- and £.5.20 for a small panini was a rip off. Looks to me like Costa Coffee, whose outlet is near the reception, have a captive audience as it's the only place to have a hot drink and something to eat while you're waiting for an appointment.

Took the mrs and kids for tea tonight, never again, the food wasn’t bad but everything else was like the jockey out of shameless. Our waiter in Adidas tracksuit bottoms didn’t have a clue, the lads smoking vapes in the corner and the young boys openly doing coke in the toilet, nah not for me

4 of us visited for bottomless brunch, we had a great time. There is a really good variety of cocktails and drinks included, and the food was good too. They were really attentive when asking us if we would like more drinks and brought a few rounds of shots round too. We would definitely recommend and will be visiting again ourselves, thank you!
