The Horse and Farrier - Threlkeld

There was nothing one could say about my visit other than excellent in every way.

Another excellent meal at the Horse & Farrier. Top quality service as usual and perfect food

The food was very good. Portions were large. Staff very friendly and helpful. Only slight criticism is that there should be more time left between courses, the main course came virtually straight after the starters, however this could have been because we attended on a weekday evening so probably not as busy.

Excellent meal, I had Sunday lunch and the boys had the steak, all thoroughly enjoyed it. Lovely surroundings, attentive staff, great food. We can highly recommend. Well done all the team!

Great menu and good food at reasonable prices highly recommend

We had a group of 8. Good service and friendly staff Food was fine. Standard Sunday lunch. Puss as usual were not too exciting. But that’s fairly usual

All excellent. Food was great and the staff and their service was superb. Plus they had sneck lifter!!! All round a very good celebration of my wife's birthday.

Wide selection of dishes on the menu and all excellent - great meal for all ages in our group. Friendly team and good service make it a strong recommendation.

Had a lovely meal in the Horse and Farrier. Couldn’t fault the food or the staff Only slight issue was they forgot about one meal! They soon rectified it. Portion size on the roast lamb and the gammon meals had a lot on. The fish and chips was a bit smaller.

Came here in may 2018 and it was lovely. Not so good this time. Confusion over one of the meals, another was cold and one was just very poor. Sad as it was because of my recommendation we went

lovely food in very nice surroundings. Cosy and comfortable, varied menu and very good staff. Glorious views too. Go to the H and F often as never disappoints

What a wonderfully friendly pub. Fantastic food and great ales. We’ve been here many times and intend to return many more times! Dog friendly too :)

Overall very good food and a nice atmosphere with an open fire. It was unfortunate for us that they sent out from the kitchen my chicken dish on mashed potato instead of risotto as described on the menu, so both dishes had to be returned for a few minutes whilst the meal was re-plated up. Spoilt the evening a little but the quality and presentation of the food was good.

Great atmosphere, great food and very friendly staff. There is a good choice on the menu and the portions are generous. A pub/ restaurant with a great deal of charm and character, very highly recommended.

Disappointed with quality of food. Two turkey dinners returned one virtually untouched and the other just picked at. Noone asked if everything ok whichit obviously wasn’t. We have eaten here a few times and foundit perfectly acceptable. We won’t be going again.

Wonderful food (loved the veg selection with the turkey), excellent value, splendid people, beautiful setting, great atmosphere, cosy log burner - What’s not to like?

Beautiful 17th C Inn, warm and friendly greeting from all the staff - Proprietor also on hand leading from the front. The food was very tasty and reasonably priced. Cannot fault the experience in any way. Will definitely return here next time I'm in the area.

Best pub restaurant in the Lake District. Great service and great food. All our meals were excellent and the staff were very friendly and helpful, brilliant evening, thank you.

Thoroughly enjoyed our visit, friendly staff, nicely decorated, great food and worth every penny. Been back time and again for the lamb shoulder and it never disappoints. Will visit again next time we are in the Lakes

Lovely,welcoming, cosy pub with wonderful food perfect way to spend a rainy afternoon sitting by the log fire. Staff & service were excellent . Will definitely be paying another visit.

The food was lovely and the staff were very friendly. The only point I would like to make is I think there were fresh flowers (Lily’s) which my husband is allergic to and this had an affect on his breathing. This is just a thing you may need to know .

A nice place, reasonable service but fish chips, ordered by 3 members of our party wasn’t the best. The portion was huge but the batter was not cooked enough and was rather pale in colour. The chips were a bit on the soft side too.

Very good food, service & ambience. Would have liked a few more veg with meal identified on menu as including veg. Howeve all food was well cooked, presented well & good value. Would definately go sgain & recommend.

The pub is a Lovely place, very dog friendly, staff are brilliant, helpful and polite, serving really great food. We have already booked a revisit. 👍

Sunday evening is NOT the tone to visit this pub. Loads of items not available and food very poor. Not s good experience and one we shall not repeat. Sad as a few years back it was an top place to eat.

Quick dinner stop so only had mains but as always the food was quality. Could not sample the beers as I was driving but the selection is great

This used to be a great restaurant but now the food is awful, the service is awful and it was outrageously expensive for the rubbish that we were served. Of all the food we ordered, only the prawn cocktail was eaten. The mushroom stroganof was like slop and the unidentifiable orange stuff that was put onto the chocolate fudge cake rendered the cake inedible. I can only assume that someone else is running the place vs the last time we went, which was about 4 years ago.

What a great place the Horse and Farrier is! We went there because we are staying in Threlkeld but would definitely come from further out. Parking is easy, access is flat, which is important to me! The table are a mismatch of styles which really suits the place. The staff are friendly and helpful. The Sunday roasts are excellent, a Yorkshire served with every meat! There is also a diverse bar food menu. We will have to go back!

We thought the food was very good but we experienced very poor service. Despite being only half full, the service was incredibly slow and the dessert never arrived.

Excellent food and hospitality in pleasant surroundings. Menu choice is great and food plentiful. This is our second visit and we will be back again.

Service was friendly, food was very nice- everyone enjoyed their meals. Restaurant area was very pleasant and not too crowded. Overall fine and reasonable value.

Good service and value for money Staff were very helpful and went out of their way to assist 50 years since we went for our honeymoon a lot has changed since then

Lovely friendly staff but food we thought wasn’t anything special. We’ve eaten here before and it was lovely. Drove here for special occasion we were disappointed.

Excellent meal, though the food took a little while to arrive but the pub was busy. Good selection on the menu with specials on a separate sheet.

Our lunch was OK, thought the food was good, but there was musac in the background, and thought we had very little contact with the staff!

Spot on! Got there a bit earlier than booked and wasn't a problem. Delicious meal and now absolutely stuffed, staff are great! Keep hold of them !

Not usually given to posting reviews because pubs are usually much of a muchness, but this one is excellent. Both food and service were top class. Very happy to recommend!!

Excellent food and menu friendly staff in a lovely setting highly recommend. We had the lamb our friends had belly pork both tender and tasty with of accomplement of mash and vegetables cannot wait to visit again.

As always fantastic service and fantastic food great atmosphere love it here.

Lovely food (especially the sticky toffee pudding) if rather slow service at the table we were seated at, round a corner from the bar! This pub has a great menu and very good choice of ales.
