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.

Very friendly, cheap for nowadays (£7.9 for f + c) and tasty. £1 for sauces aswell -curry, mushy, gravy e.t.c.

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.

Review of middle September visit. So in the words of “forest Gump” the hotel is like a box of chocolates quite not sure what you’re gonna get… let me elaborate On arrival we was really happy with the look, and location of the place considering some say it’s stuck on a roundabout, when in fact it’s opposite one that’s still a country roundabout “busy” but does not effect the hotel On arrival check in was easy and was met by the front of House manager. We also had a dog which was welcomed. The hotel looked well decorated and very fancy for being a boutique country style Hotel On arrival to the top floor room we was so happy to see the style continued Now we had some issues in this particular room, over the stay of 3 days in different matters. And it took some time for the manager to see we was not being fussy but genuine to the issues this went on over the course of are 3 days. But felt she should have been more shocked, and as annoyed by the findings as we was the we felt they was not, listened but no action really taken but listing to comments. Now by leaving the hotel sorted a compensation for room issues so out of fairness I will not list or slander. What I will say is that I feel they have better grips of the pub management and food offerings then rooms, I feel they need to go back to basics with what a guest expects from a room and be doing more checks on their team. I also note that a Friday morning keg and drinks ordered from the brewery was at 5:50 am ans was extremely loud to the point we heard the order being shouted to the team taking the delivery and not expected when your in the lakes for relaxing less early mornings, The hotel is owed by a couple and advertised in the welcome pack, my comment would be if they care they need to get in and see what is and is not being done in the rooms. Guests : First looks beautiful .. dive slightly deeper and your find the cracks For the trip it was well located to all local tourist towns and had a great field for dogs to use for the trip , could image that will be turned in to glamping pods one day. It’s worth noting a wedding was on the second day and again felt attention was given to where money was being spent on the day.

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.
