The best restaurants serving British food in Penrith West Eden North West

Jon was incredibly accommodating for a large booking, a lot more so than other places I had enquired with. The Butchers did not disappoint, the staff were friendly and the food was incredible, everyone in our party said how good it was. This place is definitely worth a visit. Thank you so much!

Great potato van Great Guy Very good location Plenty of choice for toppings Service with a smile too You can't beat a jacket spud

I hired Laura to be my florist for my wedding and was overwhelmed with how beautiful the flowers that she provided for my and the bridesmaids bouquet , button holes ,and table flowers. The quality and service she gave were brilliant and would highly recommend her.

We had a really enjoyable evening - excellent food and lovely staff in a great restaurant with a relaxing atmosphere. Would definitely recommend.

You can go in Crafty Bakers on your own, and they are very nice , helpful, and friendly . Other places they don't talk to you and are grumpy with you

This barn was pretty much abandoned the last time I walked this way some 20 years ago. Discovering a walker's cafe was a very welcome surprise. Good cakes, excellent coffee and an excellent variety of local ice cream. Yas was a friendly and polite hostess, who also told is the best vantage point to see Scalehow Force on our walk back to Patterdale. Its isolated location means you're unlikely to go out of your way to visit, but do stop if passing. There are good views over Ullstwater from the outside tables, and welcome shelter inside it it's raining.

Had lunch here yesterday and really enjoyed it. The food was delicious and piping hot and the young lad who looked after us was excellent. We’ll be back again soon to try something else from the menu!

Great service, the staff looked after us well and made us feel very welcome. Really big portions, we had a starter and main each but couldn't manage a dessert. Good value for money.

Tuve el plato más patético que he comido en mucho tiempo; Este era un huevo de gallina con espárragos. Básicamente, un huevo duro ligeramente cubierto de masa sin condimento alguno. Las 3 lanzas de espárragos estaban frías, igual que el plato. Para la comida principal tuve una lubina frita con lo que parecía un puerro pequeño de algún tipo. Los puerros se sonrojaron ligeramente en agua caliente, por lo tanto, eran duros, pero para colmo, no se lavaron y tuvieron que soportar la molienda más terrible del suelo. Cuando planteé esto con el personal, no hubo disculpas aparte de 'le haré saber al chef'. Antes de esto, tuvimos que esperar lo que parecían años para que alguien recibiera nuestras bebidas. En cualquier lugar donde el personal vino a tomar nuestros pedidos de comida, teníamos que preguntar si podíamos tener pedidos de bebidas primero. Esto fue seguido por otra larga espera. Los cubiertos también estaban sucios y también había una falta de ambiente. Notamos que en línea dice que este restaurante tiene 2 estrellas AA Rossette, pero en el restaurante hay un plato en la pared que muestra que ha sido galardonado con 1 AA Rossette. Le pediría cortés y asertivamente que se revisen los criterios de adjudicación (Rossette) o tal vez ya no sea adecuado para su propósito porque este lugar es una broma, por decir lo menos.

We were there at the weekend for afternoon cream tea for 4 - which needed 2 days booking in advance. The pictures on their website looked exquisite, and having eaten lunch here 3 times before (all of which would get a 5* review), I was sadly disappointed. The sandwiches felt as if they had been made in advance and the bread dry on top, earl grey and camomile tea was not included in the price so we paid extra for this. 2 of us had an extra cup of coffee which we were charged extra for (despite the fact that the 2 ordering and paying for the tea had not been given their coffee). I do feel we were overcharged for the extra's - in effect £12 for a cup of Earl grey and a cup of camomile. Given that the restaurant also got a comment about being stingy on the drinks on the 24th May I think this is something they could look at further, and I feel the marketing and presentation on the website increased expectations to what was actually presented to us. I will be back - I love the terrace and usually love the food, however I do not feel the afternoon tea worth the anticipation and would rather go for the lunch menu. The staff were lovely and this has no reflection on them.

I guess I’m going to have to recalibrate my expectations. £14 for a breakfast consisting of 2 halves of a tomato, a soggy mushroom, a cup of beans, two small bits of bacon, a rather solid hash brown and two thin sausages. Oh and a coffee thrown in. Sausages were tasty enough but the rest was average at best. To me the rather large pieces of tomato were plate fillers. I also got a roll rather than the sourdough on offer. But roll was too floury.

We visited for a brunch during a 4 day trip to Whinfell Forest (2 adults and 1 toddler). We were greeted right away by a friendly member of staff and shown to our table right away. Our server was quick to introduce themselves and take our drinks order and clearly noticed we were trying to get the little one settled and gave us ample time to then have a look over the menu. We ordered a large apple juice, large coke and a kids strawberry milkshake which arrived quickly. The Strawberry Milkshake wasn't that great and our little one wasn't that keen on it. We went for the Saviury French Toast Breakfast, Sweet French toast with berries and cream and the kids Pancakes with fruit and honey. The food arrived quickly and was nice with no complaints from anyone. The price, as with all of the eating establishments is a tad pricey but overall it was a pleasant experience and we would likely revisit during any future stays.

Absolutely amazing meal at the herd wick inn. Fresh and tasty food, lovely pub and friendly staff. Will definitely visit again

Came here with my son, haven’t been for a couple of years. Breakfast excellent! Big improvement from last time. Nice and clean place, breakfast well presented, quick service and good price. Will defiantly be back

Non LGV driver but I have stopped here a few times with family on our England-Scotland-England journey. Always clean and great food.
