The best restaurants in Eden North West

Don’t even bother to try and get through to book a table. No one ever answers or responds to emails. Incredibly poor communication systems

As soon as we walked into this pub, we knew it was going to be good. A small, community run pub with 2 roaring log burners and a warm welcome! I ordered one of the cocktails, the berry one and it was delicious and my partner ordered the alpaca lypse and they let him keep the glass it came in. We then ordered our mains and both had the pie; it didn't disappoint. There was so much meat and the gravy was lovely. Pudding was also amazing; two big portions of syrup sponge and chocolate fudge cake. When we are back in the lakes, we will definitely be back!

I have to confess that I was blown away with the quality of the food... usually gatropubs are hit and miss... but this one is excellent and so are the staff Booking is essential

Fijne autenthieke plaats. Heel vriendelijke bediening. Mooi assortiment cakes. Lekkere koffie. Soep zeer zeker aan te bevelen. Zels de hond kreeg een snoepje.

l sampled the dish of the day, a risotto style pilau dish, it was well presented and absolutely delicious. l then shared a dessert which was equally scrumptious. l strongly recommend this place.

Great potato van Great Guy Very good location Plenty of choice for toppings Service with a smile too You can't beat a jacket spud

I hired Laura to be my florist for my wedding and was overwhelmed with how beautiful the flowers that she provided for my and the bridesmaids bouquet , button holes ,and table flowers. The quality and service she gave were brilliant and would highly recommend her.

Lovely little set up here and my coffee was perfect, especially on a cold weekday morning before getting the train. Would definitely recommend to anyone, never mind just coffee tasting lovers. There was also such a lovely vibe with the music playing and warm set up.

So pleased we found this deli. It will now be our place to go when passing through Kirby Stephen. Great coffee a good choice of tasty food and efficient but friendly staff. We often pass through on our way to the lakes and usually take a picnic to have on the journey as the choice of eateries wasnt to our taste but Berry Grape and Grain has changed that. Thank you for a delicious lunch.

Wonderful unexpected find in a part of Cumbria that is beautiful but with fewer tea/coffee shops than further westwards. The coffee van was as pretty as a country fair stall, right on Langwathby village green. Excellent coffee, and we took away our sausage bap for lunch up at Long Meg stone circle. Cheerful and friendly service, and much needed toilets available adjacent in village hall (this lovely area is a public toilet desert and I don't do hedgerows)

My expectations were far exceeded when we just stopped off by chance for a meal on the way back from Leighton Moss to Gretna Green. The starter I chose was baked Brie with bread and olives, there was enough for 2 people to share and it was delicious and beautifully served. Both of us chose steak for a main and it was tender and juicy, with huge homemade chips and a lovely salad. Would definitely eat here again if I was in the area.

What a great experience we had this morning paddle boarding on Ulswater. The instructor was nothing short of superb and got us all up and enjoying the water really quickly. The equipment at this centre was also really high quality and we felt totally safe with the buoyancy aids provided. Our group was diverse - me a rotund 50 something to my 18 year old daughter and while the duration we stayed stood up may have varied we all managed it and enjoyed crossing the lake. In summary - this is a superb activity, great value for money and I highly recommend the experience to anyone else.

Very good takeaway coffee. On our way into the Penrith Museum we passed this coffee ‘van’. The Museum didn’t mind us taking our drinks in as we looked around. A perfect pick-me up on a wet morning!

Stunning location and good food but, like all three of the Another Place venues I've visited, let down by poor service. In every case, staff are friendly and welcoming but seem to lack basic waiting skills. On this occasion, food and drinks arrived promptly but then that was it. Empty plates sitting on the table for 20 mins, no offer to refresh drinks, no offer of desserts, no eye contact or follow up. Eventually, rather than order the tiramisu and pavlova we'd been looking forward to, we paid and left. I really want to like Another Place as the location and food are excellent, but across visits to the Glasshouse, Brackenrigg and The Living Space, service has been lacking on every occasion.

Sandy’s is the best ice cream I’ve come across all week! Absolutely stunning ice cream & Sandy was so welcoming , kind, and friendly! £3.80 for the best two ice creams I’ve had , the best chocolate fudge cake & endless toppings… everyone needs to know about Sandy’
