The best restaurants in Eden North West

My husband, daughter and I enjoyed an evening of pizza and chips surrounded by lovely flowers in a wonderful setting whilst drinking our wine. The owner and his wife were very friendly and we will definitely go again if there is another pop up pizza evening.

Stopped in for lunch and what a treat. Our food was delicious, the space is charming and the owner Simon was a joy to chat with. We will definitely pop in next time we are in Penrith.

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.

Unreal food quality! Proper tapas with proper sangria. A very good variety of options for vegetarian and vegan diets which is greatly appreciated. Prices are fair. Lovely staff too Highly recommend

Busy cafe, breakfast, brunch place, wide range of items on the menu plus daily specials, locals meeting spot and family friendly atmosphere

One of the best meals I have ever had, all of the food was rich and cooked to perfection. Despite it being a 3 course meal I left comfortably full rather than bursting at the seams. The atmosphere was lovely with good service and a comfortable feeling inside the place. I had the cheese souffle to start, the fillet steak for my main with peppercorn sauce and the dark chocolate creme brulee for dessert. Without a doubt some of the nicest food I have ever eaten, the meals were not cheap but very much worth the price. Visited on a Thursday evening, a last minute reservation was made but it is always best to phone ahead to confirm that they are still open as Wednesday and Thursday then are not particularly busy and may close early.

The most wonderful meal, ( not cheap)made with love and served with joy.. a delicious taste in every bite. We didn’t know what to expect, but imagine opening a cracker and discovering you have a gold coin, not a plastic one😄😄

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

Excellent meal, couldn’t fault it. Staff were friendly and polite. Food is superb. We went in on their pie night and it was very busy, service was great and food was fantastic. Highly recommend!

Beautiful lunch at the White Hare Cafe. I had the red lentil soup and the cheese scone and my wife had one of three traditional Ploughman's Lunches. Both meals were tasty, fresh and really well presented. The cheeses were to die for! The cafe itself was the perfect mix of quirky and traditional with lovely potential gifts on sale and a fabulous bird cafe en route to the bathroom. Sparkling clean and extremely welcoming. And an excellent pudding menu :) You have to go there. We'll be back!

Travelling across to the Lake District we were looking for somewhere to eat relatively near the A66 that welcomed families and dogs. We happened to find the Three Greyhounds on line and were really pleased we did. It’s a lovely warm, welcoming pub with fantastic food. Our kids loved the pizzas and we had sausages and mash & the steak pie. The portion size was just right and the meals were delicious. We’d definitely recommend a visit!

We called in for lunch after viewing a house in Alston, the food was delicious, home cooked and very generous portions, and the bread is amazing! It's very difficult to find real wholemeal bread these days as it all tends to be supermarket style, even from bakers but this is the real thing! So tasty and filling, wonderful to eat just on it's own!

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 just tried to order 2 pizzas via their app, which didn't work, then over the Internet on a PC, which also didn't work. When I phoned to try and tell them and order over the phone, I was told no orders could be taken that way and Shap Pizza was so interested in being told that their app wasn't working.....they put the phone down on me! Sorry but we live locally and that isn't impressive.

For no special reason my wife bought a pack of Low Howgill Cross Fell sausage at the Keswick outdoor market. When we arrived home the sausage went into the freezer. Some weeks later we had this thin link sausage for our evening meal. It was 'absolutely delicious'. We are off to Keswick shortly and a must stop-off on our way home will be Low Howgill Butchers for more Cross Fell sausage and whatever else takes our fancy.
