    Lovely Sunday dinner served by friendly staff. The room was a little cool when we first arrived but warned as the place filled so was probably just right. Not helped by storm Ciara doing her thing outside! The beef was amazing!

    Another great meal. There was 7 of us eating. Three gammon and chips, 1 fish and chips, 1 steak and chips, 1 roast beef and 1 roast turkey dinners. All meals were lovely. Could not fault anything. Team members checked on us, making sure everything was okay, asked if more drinks were needed and if the two roast dinners needed anymore gravy. Left room for puddings! Which were as delicious. Would definitely recommend the horse and farrier and will be eating there again, when we are next up in the Lakes.

    Sat next to door which was constantly open and very cold, initial service very good and quick but after waiting ages had to go to bar to order food. 90% of food was good however panna cotta was terrible I’d go as far as suggesting to take it off the menu until chef can make them (sorry but not good) Overall though decent visit

    Good food and comfy seats! My fish and chip was really good. The fish was in a light and crispy batter and the chips were just the way I like them, not too thin and crispy. The only room for improvement would be to have more vegan options. If you're looking for traditional pub fayre, this restaurant does that well!

    Had Sunday Roast today, mixed meats, never seen so much meat before, nice fresh vegetables, roast potatoes and yorkshire puddings were lovely. Great service and pleasant surroundings. Couldn't ask for more. Will definitely be back.

    The only problem we had was that the room we were in was freezing, as we had pre booked the table I would have expected the heating to be on ready for us. It was only 1 degree outside & we had to sit with our coats on for the first half hour

    Had a couple of meals here before but first time for my dinner companions. All in agreement that it’s good food, cosy and comfortable atmosphere, and great service. Think it will become one of our regular places to eat.

    Holidaying from Scotland in the local area, we Decided to visit Horse and Farrier after a busy day in Keswick , we had popped in to see the place earlier that day and were given the advice to book as they can get busy. They are dog friendly and happily accepted our cocker spaniel and even had a biscuit for him! I Booked for 6pm table for two next to the fire, what a treat and we are so glad that we booked. The pub is traditional with friendly staff and superb food! My partner had the veggie Chilli which was a large portion with rice , salad and flat bread and was clearly home made and resulted in a clean plate! I had a soup to start which was again home made and delicious, for my main I had slow braised shoulder of local Herdswick lamb on mashed potatoes and seasonal vegetables, this was tremendous tasty and cooked to perfection! I could not fault anything about our meal or service. This type of pub is sadly lacking in Scotland and one of the reasons we like to come. Thanks guys for a memorable and delicious experience.

    We were at the Horse and Farrier to celebrate my Mums 60th birthday. The staff were very friendly and helpful from the moment we arrived. Nothing was too much trouble. The food was tasty and the only minor complaint (if you can call it a complaint!) was in relation to the chorizo and prawn starter which seemed quite small compared to the rest of the food we ordered. I would recommend to anyone as the food was tasty and the service was excellent!
