Welcoming friendly staff, efficient and caring service and great pub food, all on the side of Blencathra. What's not to love. The perfect place to chill one of my all time favourite pubs.

Disappointing. The food lacked finesse - rather heavy on mash, roast potatoes and swede swimming in gravy, and a bowl of overcooked green vegetables. The toilets needed a bit of cleaning. When this was brought to the attention of staff we were told that they had had a busy day.

The bruschetta was below par, the calimari was OK, but suspect it was out of a packet. The service was rushed and the waiter managed to knock over a pint of beer then knocked lemon slice onto my hubby’s trousers whilst trying to clean up . We were very disappointed after expecting much more. We also witnessed other diners being subject to very rushed service. Such a shame as it is a lovely pub. Won’t be back I am afraid.

In general were satisfied with our experience but would mention presentation of food was overpowering inthat portions particularly Yorkshire pudding were somewhat for too much on the plate.
