The best restaurants in Broughton South Lakeland North West

Great place to stop for a coffee or another drink with great selection of cakes to meet everybody's tastes (I've loved all i've tried). Lovely owner .

Amazing pub, absolute hidden gem. The food was unbelievably good. Will definitely make a point of returning if ever back in the area

Photographs of the two rooms with open fires look delightful, especially the room with the old fashioned range and hearth, but it seems there is every chance, even if you book weeks in advance, you won't be seated in either but placed in a small room at the rear warmed only with electric heaters. This room should be reserved for walk-ins, or have it made clear when booking - you must book by phone - that you will not be sitting in one of the rooms featured prominently on the website, or, indeed, online reviews. You have an unspoilt interior but this unsatisfactory arrangement is like a throwback to a time when pubs did not have to try too hard. This wasn't putting off punters on the night we visited however. The small bar area was packed. And although there was nobody at all sitting in one of the dining areas with open fire we were informed all of these tables were reserved and directed to the back room. Food may be a notch above average for a regular pub but is short of gastro standard. There appears to be some work going on at the rear currently. Difficult to find a space and several inconsiderately parked vehicles.

What a place! Great real ales, excellent home made pasties and open fires . There's also an impressive mead selection and commodes for chairs. Great place for a lazy pub day with the dog

The best service and bar staff .. Outstanding In fact … the lads in there Sunday night were really fabulous.. perfect staff Have visited South Cumbria pubs often .., their service and attentiveness were first class .. Well Done. And thank you

We felt we needed a coffee after a walk and found this lovely bakery and café. Lots of fresh bread and cakes were being sold as takeaway, but we found comfortable seats and sat inside. Nice cappuccino and latte with friendly staff and a warm welcome. This place was a good find.

We were staying in a little cottage a mile down the road for a week around Cumbria and this was the closest and ended up being one of the best little bolt holes of bliss in the Duddon Valley. So welcoming, it became a local for my husband and I and if we ever move up there, we’ll be back in being local like a shot. The food was extensive with a separate superb vegetarian and vegan menu. I have been struggling with a mutated smell and taste for two years and they were so accommodating when I asked for 3 chips with my curry, and 3 was what I had on the plate. Perfect, made us and all of them laugh. I love the sincerity here and the comforting vibe. I actually feel quite bereft we don’t live next door it’s so good.

Full breakfast is far too meat orientated . As much as I like bacon sausage and black pudding I also like a whole tomato , mushrooms and beans . This came with only half a tomato and no mushroom or beans. Poor quality toast . Flat white fat too milky . Will not hurry back .

Had a lovely roast beef dinner with my daughter in law , my son had the duck. Fab food , fab friendly service will definitely visit again next time I visit family up there.

Quaint lovely cafe, breakfast was amazing. Staff were very accommodating and friendly. Went here both mornings and perfect both days. We will definitely be back. Enjoyable place.

Solía vivir en la zona y este pub está entre los mejores. Comida, cerveza inglesa, dueños maravillosos. No puedo esperar a visitarlo de nuevo algún día.

Tried to visit this place again after an amazing experience in 2021 and found it’s closed down. Disappointing as was an outstanding place.
