The best restaurants serving British food in Castle Carlisle North West

Amazing sandwiches, cakes and afternoon tea boxes! Highly recommended!

Wonderful food with very pleasant attentive staff.Would highly recommend.1st visit but will definitely return. At the higher end price wise but well worth it.

Good home made food, really nice helpful staff

had to find somewhere to charge my phone and sit because all trains were cancelled - they were so helpful and end up getting food. really lovely staff, had the spaghetti carbonara with parmesan which was stunning and the eton mess style homemade dessert which was meringue, honeycombe ice cream and white chocolate sauce. honestly was the best thing i’ve ever tasted. surprised it wasn’t busy because the food was amazing and affordable, really underrated and will be coming back again

Prompt service great food, good value for money

Fantastic food and wonderful staff. Came in today with my family and ordered chicken and chips for 3 of us and cheese and onion patty and I can't believe how much you got and how tasty it was. Staff super friendly and attentive and just a great chippy

Closing down soon. Unfortunately another country pub will close down on 30th June 2024. Staff were good and doing their best in the circumstances.

Such a shame, such an attractive setting, lovely building, nice style and comfortable. We visited on New Years Day, it was very quiet with only a few tables, the food was very average, the Beef Sandwhich was filled with chewy chunks of overcooked beef and we had a very basic Risotto. The service lacked any attentiveness or care - we had to look over to get attention to order drinks or ask to get our plates cleared and get the bill. The staff had absolutely no interest in us, didn’t ask how anything was and just generally made the whole atmosphere flat. Such below average food considering the price and poor service and just generally underwhelming despite such a lovely premises. Considering how quiet it was we expected to have been welcomed a bit more and had a much nicer experience. Perhaps we got there on an off day!

What a lovely place to go for Sunday lunch. First time I have been as I live in Manchester (friends in Carlisle). A very pleasant welcome from the staff, so nice and friendly. Lunch was perfect. Would recommend to anyone. I will be back there next time I’m here. Thank you.

We’re regulars in the pub, we thought that we would check out the new menu! We didn’t wait long for food, was delicious. We overheard that the pub was going through some chef changes this didn’t affect our food it was the best soufflé I’ve had in a while!! Would highly recommend, lovely staff members!

Attended a reunion with friends here, private dining on the terrace, the service was appalling, they had 3 large parties and obviously insufficient staff. The starter arrived some 25 minutes late, tepid soup, not very appetising, then a 55 minute wait for the mains, overcooked beef and lukewarm veg, no gravy, the a wait for sweet, sticky toffee pudding, can't go wrong with that, oh yes they could, pudding had sort of crust on it and was served with a miniscule portion of ice cream. All in all a huge disappointment and not what we expected, they really need to up their game.

We’ve just returned from an incredible evening at the March Bank hotel. I booked a table for a family of five - including 2 fussy teenagers! Every plate went back clean. The service, the food and the whole experience were amazing. Seriously cannot fault it. Located in a beautifully decorated house, with great original art works it was a truly great meal hosted by a lovely family. Can’t wait to come back.

Do not recommend. Me and my partner got a crab and prawn baguette and safe to say it was disgusting. The woman told us it was “fresh crab and fresh prawns” it was not it was seafood sticks blended with prawns. Asked for salad and got a tiny amount. Soft bendy baguette. Asked aswell if it was margarine or actual butter (we’re both chefs we can tell!!) and got told “no it’s butter” but it was, in fact, margarine. We scraped out the entire filling and ate just bread on the way home not even finishing it. £4.00 is ridiculous for a baguette that is just purely vile. Shame it’s been taken over by people who lie and clearly don’t care about their customers or food. Oh and all the staff were stood about on their phones🙄!!

Food was good and would of been a 5star but let down with missing things from order gravy was missing asked for it separate but didn't come and left of the stuffing I asked for extra ordered Sunday 7th

Love this place. Great pub food at reasonable prices keeps us coming back. Many of our customers use the overnight camping here and find it to be good. Staff friendly and helpful.
