Staff lovely, but unfortunately was cold and they took it back. They replaced both meals which were very nice.
Good service. Friendly staff. Dining room a bit chilly for my liking but didn’t really detract from nice dining experience

We went to Priest Hole for my Daughters birthday we were a party of 10 including 3 children age 11 4 and 18 months. The staff were amazing and nothing was too much trouble for them. The meal was delicious and cooked to perfection. Highly recommend
Lovely ambience. The food was superb. Beautifully cooked and presented and the taste was amazing. Best Sunday roast we have had.
Excellent food and service will be going back for sure. Highly recommend !!
The food was great and friendly attentive service thought the evening
No other customers, despite not being able to book a different time. Blue cheese sauce did not taste of cheese at all! Music was depressing and had to ask for it to be changed. Not at all what I wanted for my husband’s 60th birthday.
Great selection. The steak pie was the best I've ever had. Great service too. Would definitely recommend.
Great evening in the always welcoming Priest Hole. Steak night never disappoints.
Staff great, food average atmosphere average , beef was over cooked maybe because we ate at 6.30 Overall think the food could have been better
My wife and I had the Sunday roast My wife had the turkey and I had the trio meats. Could not fault the quantity or quality. Would definitely book again.
Brilliant meal first class service as always and great atmosphere.
I was disappointed with the roast dinner, I ordered the beef had a very large amount of fat and was quite tough, did I return it no, because my husband would have been eating his meal alone, also when you looked at the plate it didn't look appetising, would I go again, no
Great. No more words to say.ok ok ok. It’s cold
Ordered the sirloin of beef which was a big mistake. It was very disappointing as it was very tough and fatty. Service was very slow. Only plus was the nice bottle of wine we enjoyed, won’t be returning
The hosts were friendly and offered a warm welcome. Very relaxed atmosphere and great service would recommend and will visit again soon
Lovely place to eat, a great Sunday lunch! Thank you.
Excellent food, have eaten here a few times and always to a great standard. Thanks
We had the lovliest waiter and waitress. They made us feel very welcome and as we were among the last few people to leave, we had a great chat at the bar and found out some history of the building. Very interesting. Will definitely visit next time we're over that way.
Friendly staff and easy booking. Food came out very quick and could have been hotter. Portions could have been bigger. No allergie sheets available !!
Great food, great service and very reasonable prices. Had the Sunday dinner, choice of lamb, beef or pork.
First time visiting, fabulous home cooked food, recommend the homemade steak pie, chips, mushy peas & gravy, outstanding. Will definitely be back.
Food was really good, and the friendly and amusing waitress added to our experience.
Everything was great about my dining experience, food, service and ambience, thank you .
Lovely food, pleasant staff and nice atmosphere. Have visited many times and always had excellent food.
Food was delicious & plenty of gf options! Service was friendly & we weren’t kept waiting.
The staff were pleasant and the atmosphere was good. The steaks were average which is a bit of a shame as they were great last time we went a year ago
Lovely place with lovely staff - food excellent and very tasty!
Absolutely wonderful evening, food was delicious, can’t fault anything, will definitely be returning soon.
We loved our visit to The Priest Hole! On a rare night away from our little ones it was such a treat to have such a gorgeous meal in a gorgeous restaurant! We went on Thursday which was steak night and we were not disappointed! Cooked to our very differing specifications and generous Lake District portions! The cauliflower pakora and beetroot/goats cheese starters were excellent and we ended with delicious desserts! The tram were warm and welcoming and it was an experience we would gladly return for! Thanks the Nicola and all the team!x
Superb as usual. Visited several times. Will be back again.
Good food and friendly attentive service in a fascinating building
great food and service as always, had choices off the Sunday menu only, would of liked a choice of sandwiches or more lighter bites as i wasn't particularly hungry at the time. Overall the food was lovely though,
This was our first visit and we will be back. Fabulous cheery staff and the food was super. Steak pie was amazing. Loved the wonky floors.
Not very good , much better places to eat in Ambleside Staff seemed to want everyone out before 9pm
Lovely restaurant with intriguing history and extraordinary menu. The staff worked very hard to make sure our visit was memorable. Highly recommended.
