The best restaurants serving Default food in Carlisle North West

First time trying this place and it most definitely won't be the last, the food tastes absolutely brilliant and would recommend it to anyone

On a off chance called in for lunch with friends very accommodating food was fresh/hot and plenty of it, staff were attentive and all in all a pleasant afternoon.

Best cheesecakes I have ever had - great texture, and taste and they offer great combinations of flavors.

This cafe has just won Best Cafe in England Award..........whilst this is a lovely cafe and adjoining shop the menu is definitely lacking. For people with dairy or egg intolerances or requiring vegan diets there is nothing . We mentioned about dairy/egg allergies and asked if they had anything vegan. Was told nothing on the menu but they could "veganise" anything on the menu. Great we thought...... we opted for a vegetarian sausage bap which we were told was actually vegan..... after about 10 minutes we were told they didn't have any; but they could rustle up a delicious vegan breakfast instead. Excellent we thought....... after about 20 minutes the food arrived with dry toast, (no dairyfree spread), a few undercooked mushrooms and tomato, a small pot of beans and a couple of handmade potato cakes which were nice ..... all topped off with a fried egg!!!! They clearly do not understand that dairy and eggs can be very dangerous for people with allergies. Lovely cafe if you can eat anything otherwise don't bother

Reaching Pennies by foot from the center of town you would approach by Botchergate then turn left , approaching pennies there is a bin just outside the cafe , for off loading your unneeded litter , The cafe is rather on the small side but cozy , the max of space would hold fourteen people , Pennies closes early in the day , @ 3 pm , the decor is straight forward basic the cafe notice board shows a homely working but to me is fine , You get the regular roll call of locals attending there and it shows the social tick over of life with Carlisle people , The food is of a wholesome menu and selection of home cooked meals , snacks , etc and is a normal cost across the board for Carlisle for tummy filling dishes , if asked for you could possibly have made a dish / plate of yum yums that is not even upon the menu board , so for " they who dare ask -- will find " ,One of the back bone dishes upon the menu is the all day Breakfast a typical British signature dish , small ( £ 4.00 )or large ( £ 5.00 ) which holds a comprehensible selection + a small side plate of toast and you can tune up on your likes and dislikes as to what you get put upon your plate , A few choices of type of coffees there but also cold drinks too, From a cup to a mug size and up to a tea pot of tea served , A true down to earth CAFE jaunt for the budget traveler , The sourced food supplies Pennies are from a good local stockist who are Carlisle grown producers , Pennies also caters for the special diet need for food stuff allergies and medication needs too so ask and please say to receive :-) , Their is also a sign post out side the front of the shop for chaining up the bicycles , they have no baby high chairs for use , Upon the Tait street one way traffic flow system is road side parking but please check for sign post regulations and rules of parking at that road side just before to Pennies Cafe of Carlisle Cumbria UK .

Absolutely gorgeous food. Great value for money as meal deal was a brilliant option. Lovely welcoming staff, very friendly and helpful with my order. Even offered to bring my food out to the car as I had a young child. Authentic and clean premises. You can watch as they prepare your food and wash up the dishes! Will definitely be back!

This restaurant was recommended and certainly did not disappoint. Every bite was delicious, portions more than sufficient. Patricia, our host, was so warm and attentive and we would definitely like to return

Lovely pizza, amazing people who work there

Another outstanding dinner at The Lounge On The Green. Delicious food and service is second to none. Highly recommended

Lovely cafe , a few minutes walk from our Airbnb. We all had something different, each of us enjoyed the freshly cooked breakfast. Warm & welcoming with friendly service.

Great staff and great food. Will be back

An excellent lunch with faultless service. It included delicious homemade vegan soup with homemade foccatta and vegan 'butter' .

Lovely stopping off point after a long walk. First class food- both the evening meal and the breakfast. Lots of little extra touches that made the stay perfect including a place to leave soggy boots to dry off so they were nice and toastie the next morning. Welcoming host who made this solo female walker feel safe and welcome. Highly recommended.
