Penrith restaurants serving local produce and dishes
The Lake District is famed for more than beautiful scenery, the Cumberland sausage, with its distinctive shape and taste and which is sold throughout the world, originated in the area. Wild damsons grow unabated in the region and are used by the local chefs to create wonderful jams, puddings, chutneys, cheese and pastries. In the main, the restaurants in Penrith use locally sourced produce in their dishes and you can be sure that the succulent steaks or prime pork that you're served was born and reared in the local area.
