The best restaurants in Burneside South Lakeland North West

As a local I’ve been here a few times and the bread is great but I’m not overly sure it’s worth the premium particularly with the pastries where the quantity of fillings didn’t really demand the price tag. I’ll stick to the bread for special occasions.

lf you are in the Kendal area, this is THE best place to go for hot meat pies or cold pork pies for lunch; absolutely delicious and excellent value. We tried the beef and the chicken varieties and also their large cold turkey and ham raised pie; wonderful. They also do other varieties and vegetarian pies. But call ahead to find out what they will have available that's hot, or to order, as they mostly supply uncooked pies to cook yourself.

Lovely place, definitely worth visiting. Great, tasty food. Fantastic selection of cake and amazing hot chocolate! Also in the area little farm shop and bakery.

Said it was open online, was in fact closed

Stumbled upon this lovely cafe when looking for somewhere to get coffee and cake after a walk at Troutbeck. We got a very friendly welcome despite it being fairly close to closing. Amazing selection of cakes including gf and df. Definitely recommend stopping by.

Sadly we were disappointed by the lack of staff having had to wait an hour to get our food. The 2 different cheese burgers were excellent, the fish and chips were very tasty sadly the vegetarian curry was very disappointing. The 2 waiters and chef did their best but were overwhelmed by the volume of customers. It is a very comfortable Inn.

Pleasant English village pub atmosphere, friendly staff and local guests. There was a card party in the corner, pleasant relaxed conversation and beer drinking, while 80' and 90' pop rock music was playing. Apex! The beers were delicious and fresh. I loaded goods from the local paper mill as a European trucker and stopped for a night to experience the environment of the local English village. A quiet peaceful place.

Hard to know what to say! I didn't dislike it, nor was it particularly good. It certainly isn't a hotel. I'm not even sure its an Inn. More a pub with rooms really. The room was OK, but tired and in need of a little TLC. The mattress (King on two single beds) was pretty hollow on one side so probably needs replacing. On evening one I'd prebooked the evening meal online which incurred a £10 booking charge. I'd assumed this would be deducted from the bill but it wasn't. If you go here, book by phone or on the night - don't do it online. That same evening my partner wanted an Irish coffee. The young man behind the bar said he didn't know how to do it and couldn't float cream. In any case he said he had just cleaned down the coffee machine for the day, so it couldn't be used. It was just 8pm!! Evening 2 was even more odd. Just the one man (manager I guess) was doing everything. As a result queues formed with one couple waiting over 30 minutes just to check in! A few others gave up waiting to order drinks etc and simply left. When we went up to our room, we found there was no hot water - no heating either. The boiler had broken down, so it was a case of boiling kettles to wash. I went down to let him know then overheard him saying to someone else that guests were complaining there was no hot water but he was too busy to be able to do anything about it. It was still out of use in the morning so again kettles and no shower or bath. They gave everyone a complimentary breakfast by way of a sorry. It was back in order for that evening. There's a board in the dining area showing the local produce that they use. There was a local vodka which I thought I might try - none available. Best take that board down then eh? As I say - this place has a whole lot going for it. It just doesn't get close to meeting it's potential, which is a real shame.

Absolute rubbish. Poor service and awful food. Cannot believe Morrisons allow this - I am not sure if this is a franchise but it is a disgrace.
