The best restaurants in Penrith West Eden North West

Shame about one member of staff, miserable doesn't come close..

We had a great time, with enjoyable food and excellent service from our server Vika and assistant Adam. We would recommend

Amazing, we go everytime we’re in the lakes for the weekend. The food is always amazing. The staff have always been friendly and always make sure everything is ok. Only thing is the tables are very sticky but apart from that amazing

We were there at the weekend for afternoon cream tea for 4 - which needed 2 days booking in advance. The pictures on their website looked exquisite, and having eaten lunch here 3 times before (all of which would get a 5* review), I was sadly disappointed. The sandwiches felt as if they had been made in advance and the bread dry on top, earl grey and camomile tea was not included in the price so we paid extra for this. 2 of us had an extra cup of coffee which we were charged extra for (despite the fact that the 2 ordering and paying for the tea had not been given their coffee). I do feel we were overcharged for the extra's - in effect £12 for a cup of Earl grey and a cup of camomile. Given that the restaurant also got a comment about being stingy on the drinks on the 24th May I think this is something they could look at further, and I feel the marketing and presentation on the website increased expectations to what was actually presented to us. I will be back - I love the terrace and usually love the food, however I do not feel the afternoon tea worth the anticipation and would rather go for the lunch menu. The staff were lovely and this has no reflection on them.

I guess I’m going to have to recalibrate my expectations. £14 for a breakfast consisting of 2 halves of a tomato, a soggy mushroom, a cup of beans, two small bits of bacon, a rather solid hash brown and two thin sausages. Oh and a coffee thrown in. Sausages were tasty enough but the rest was average at best. To me the rather large pieces of tomato were plate fillers. I also got a roll rather than the sourdough on offer. But roll was too floury.

We visited for a brunch during a 4 day trip to Whinfell Forest (2 adults and 1 toddler). We were greeted right away by a friendly member of staff and shown to our table right away. Our server was quick to introduce themselves and take our drinks order and clearly noticed we were trying to get the little one settled and gave us ample time to then have a look over the menu. We ordered a large apple juice, large coke and a kids strawberry milkshake which arrived quickly. The Strawberry Milkshake wasn't that great and our little one wasn't that keen on it. We went for the Saviury French Toast Breakfast, Sweet French toast with berries and cream and the kids Pancakes with fruit and honey. The food arrived quickly and was nice with no complaints from anyone. The price, as with all of the eating establishments is a tad pricey but overall it was a pleasant experience and we would likely revisit during any future stays.

Absolutely amazing meal at the herd wick inn. Fresh and tasty food, lovely pub and friendly staff. Will definitely visit again

Was really disappointed heard so much about this place and really wanted to take my family as we went out for a evening meal staff extremely rude there was this one nonprofessional lady called Amy that was very rude and very unprofessional. The rest of the staff looked like they just left school and was very shy to speak which is fine just when you’re asking questions questions you would like them to be answered Will not be visiting back very disappointed

Ordered via website for collection. Order was on time and correct. Parking easy despite being in town centre. Food as expected from Domino’s. Hit the spot after a long drive!

Came here with my son, haven’t been for a couple of years. Breakfast excellent! Big improvement from last time. Nice and clean place, breakfast well presented, quick service and good price. Will defiantly be back

This place is atmospherically welcoming. Has friendly, approachable staff. Recent new management. Good business potential. Staff are aware of many challenges ahead but facing them with dedication and focused perseverance. Listed building. Geographically, an ideal spot. Excellent food. Comfortable rooms.

We ordered a delivery to our holiday home this evening. We had Chinese and Japanese food. Everyone loved their food. It was tasty and fresh and didn't take too long to arrive. Thank you so much. Highly recommend 👌

Non LGV driver but I have stopped here a few times with family on our England-Scotland-England journey. Always clean and great food.

Good food, nice atmosphere with the Chesterfield couches in the pub area. 1 large TV for sports. Sunday roast was very nice too. Outside seating available.

A nice surprise! Good coffee and cake and the staff are lovely :)
