The best restaurants serving British food in Levens South Lakeland North West

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 ?

Visited many times on the way back from the lakes, always perfect

We had intended to be somewhere else which was closed , & headed down a lane to this venue following signs, & wondering if we might truffle out a lunch . We were not disappointed. This is a little find , both the farm shop downstairs & the café up the stairs. I had a soup ( parsnip & apple) and ham batch combo , husband opted for soup & cheese scone. Great comfort food , & nice cuppa too! We didn’t get to watch the cows being milked (3.30 pm) but watched them on a screen in the café making use of what seemed to be an automated back scratcher….
