The best restaurants serving British food in Wigton Allerdale North West

I stumbled across Scran after recently moving to Wigton, and I'm honestly so glad I did! Not only did the cater brilliantly for my vegetarian girlfriend, but the food and service we got was brilliant from start to finish. Furthermore, the fact that they emphasise all the ingredients come from the local area makes it an even better experience. Ultimately, it means you get lovely food, while at the same time supporting local businesses!

We visited on our holiday after searching for pubs nearby. The only downfall is the service was abit slow at first, obviously we’re not from the area so we got told what table we were at but didn’t get told if it was bar service or table service so we ended up sitting there for 10 mins with no menus not knowing. We went on a Sunday so the menu was two courses for less than £16! Very good value, the portions are good sizes and the food was lovely.

We have been twice recently for Sunday lunch and twice during the week , quality of food and the service is excellent. And we will most certainly will be eating there again soon

Attended a conference and decided to have breakfast before. The full english breakfast was served quickly, was red hot and delicious. My colleague who is vegan was offered options. All staff were so friendly and helpful, especially Pauline.

An old village inn that has sadly seen better days. I’m giving it 2 stars purely because the owner was so friendly but the place itself felt dirty, stank of something that was akin to stale urine and was generally uncared for. A shame because it could be a nice place if some attention to detail was made. Not a chance I would go back until then.

Myself, partner and kids frequently visit and love this café, we go early as they get busy and sometimes runout of hot food. I've tried the home made quiche, soup, scones, cupcakes and thier cheesecakes I couldn't recommend enough. The ladies there are super friendly and are generally lovely. We are always made to welcome. Wether we come for coffee and a cake or a spot of lunch the cafe never disappoints!

We visited on Sunday 1st December 2024, three families with kids/teenagers, 12 people in total. I had a yorkshire pudding wrap with beef which was served with vegetables and a choice of roast potatoes or chips. It was delicious! Most of the adults had the Christmas burger which they all really enjoyed. "Proper" chips went down a treat with all and the portions were extremely generous. This was classic pub food done exceptionally well. Adults and kids all agreed that they'd like to come back soon. Thank you

Lovely setting in a fabulous old building but falls far short of its potential. Menu choices very traditional/dated, food quality just adequate, coffee poor. Staff (all three of them) oddly lacking in any warmth whatsoever. Not dog-friendly so limited to sitting outdoors, which would be ok if the tables/benches weren’t so dirty, and in some cases rotten. With the summer coming, someone could at least sand them down and do some basic maintenance. Feels a bit like they’d given up.

Best breakfast about it was cooked so nice good chef 👨‍🍳 I'll be back and a good price nice clean and tidy cafe very friendly staff
