The best restaurants in Levens South Lakeland North West

When we arrived the staff didn't acknowledge us.. But they were busy so we let this go... But a simple we'll be with u shortly woukd have done it... But once we had their attention they were friendly and attentive and funny ... Myself and my group of 4 sat and had a few drinks before our meal... We were shown to our table and we chose from the set Sunday menu.... Soup and ham Hock terrain for starters... All delicious and then 4 roast dinners for main... 2 beef.. 1 chicken breast and 1 pork with crackling.. absolute perfection on a plate....👌 Served with mash and roast potatoes.. Parsnips.. Mange tout... Broccoli... Turnip and carrot and cauli cheese.. And a huge Yorkie pud... The only down side to the meal for me. Was that the cauliflower cheese was luke warm... But that aside evething was delicious.... No room for dessert as we were stuffed... If u haven't been here for food then why the hell not!!!!!!..... We will definitely be going back and they do deals every day of the week.... So get urself there... Thank you to the Wheatsheaf Brigsteer team....ur chef is the dogs bi!!0cks 👍

Breakfast food and staff: Excellent Dinner: Ok Accommodation: Bit tired, plus no mention of steep and bumpy drive to access

So disappointing. This used to be our favourite pub in Cumbria with excellent service, beers, wine, food , ambiance , all the things needed for an excellent experience. BUT, this has obviously changed hands recently. Firstly the fires weren't lit, a chimney problem apparently, only one lady serving. Soup was tasteless, cheese roll was hard baguette obviously microwaved and cheese was bland. The mediocre wine was served in a cheap thick glass which I would be embarrassed to have. How can a pub decline so rapidly ?

The person I presume to be the manager was so rude and obnoxious I didn’t feel welcome so walked out. Would not recommend!

NEVER AGAIN! Apparently when you book with them, they'll refuse to give you 4 star service. The windows are so dirty you can't see out on them and rhe rooms are dirty.

Extremely mean apply syrup with pancakes and LONG wait for food. Generally good quality food but mean with accompaniments and service average.

We stopped here when traveling through Cumbria, although the house and garden were not open the kitchen was. Very good menu and service. Good main cafe, garden dining and the unique Howard room. Would recommend the beetroot and goat cheese salad or the venison and pasta dishes from this visit. Even though the garden and house were shut the deer park provided an excellent walk after lunch

We only wanted a coffee and a cake as it was only 11.15 AM but had to queue for 20 minutes behind people ordering hot food and spending ages deciding what they wanted at the last minute Nice stuff but it needs organising a lot better Guess as its volunteer run it depends very much on what the staffing is on the day They need a separate area for those just having coffee etc rather than a meal

Sunday lunch very poor. Initially cold before being re-heated upon request. The sirloin steak was tasteless and chewy. Overall bland meal and very disappointing. Also an unsettling quiet and subdued atmosphere despite being Father's Day.

The cottages on this site are great for self catering.

asked for some napkins for a spillage in the car before getting drinks for our friends birthday, we were bluntly sent out with the napkins with the door slammed behind us. telling us they will “see us another day”. they will not be seeing us another day. horrible bar staff member
