A very well run, organised and efficient pub with great, proper food. It was obvious that the chef had given a lot of thought to the menu. Service was impeccable throughout. We’d definitely eat there again.

We eat here once a year when we visit Threlkeld for the Mikron Theatre performance. We usually have the vegetarian curry but this year it was a disaster and we both had to leave a substantial amount of the food. It was far to hot a meal, even for a curry. That is our only grumble.

Had a fantastic Sunday lunch after a long walk. Although busy, the service was quick and very accommodating. We were late and notified them in advance, they were very helpful. Would recommend.

Lovely pub with good selection of beers, in the main the food is also good / very good but don’t bother with the starter tomato and burrata salad - £8:50 for a sliced tomato, a little bit of lettuce and three slices of burrata! It’s a pity because some of the other dishes are good value and well prepared

Very high quality good food with freshly cooked imaginative menu . Service excellent with charming , attentive staff ( special mention to Keith who entertained with his great sense of humour and very helpful when asked to advise on menu specials).

Superb choice of menu and very tasty food. The waiter/manager? Was so friendly and chatty and really made you feel welcome. Only downside we had was we were sat near the back door so was quite cold every time someone went in/out.

Not as good as previous visits - went for Sunday lunch. One staff member helpful in finding us a table as we arrived early ( her colleague just told us we’d have to wait), so appreciated her proactive manner. Lamb was tough - told staff who asked if all was well - no action taken. And our green vegetables weren’t served, but another helpful mos sorted that for us. Overall, it was ok, but slightly disappointing compared with previous experiences

We have been before and found it amazing ,not so this time I'm afraid to say ,everyone was pleasant and the food came quickly ,but not to the standard it used to be .Also if you book on line ,I would let them know that you have dogs even though it's a dog friendly pub ,dogs aren't aloud in certain areas .
