The best restaurants serving British food in Allerdale North West

Don’t get me wrong, I like The Trout and have had some excellent meals here however having visited family in Whitehaven and returning to Yorkshire we detoured to The Trout for something delicious to eat. Both opting for the Sunday roast with one having beautifully cooked beef, still pink in the middle I ordered the half roast chicken. It was neither roasted nor half a chicken but an unsliced flavorless chicken breast that at best was perhaps pan fried, I was disappointed. The gravy was more wine and herb flavoured as opposed to meat flavoured which again was a little disappointing. On the up though the vegetables were cooked well except the roasties needed to be crispier and the mash creamier. When next eating at The Trout on a Sunday I’m going to pass on the roast thank you. I noted previous reviews for the roast dinner were from 2020 and 2019 so a more current review I felt was necessary.
