Reviews in Cockermouth

Fantastic food, lovely ambience with superb staff. Meat eaters should really try this very different style of eating, they certainly won`t miss the meat and will feel well fulfilled believe me.

Very good Hotel lovely atmosphere, friendly staff and brilliant food

No matter how many times you visit the Allerdale the Food and Service are always excellent.

Having eaten at the bridge for the third year running i feel yet to be impressed AGAIN! Having read a good review pleasantly displayed proudly by the bar all i can say is what a lie. But where to begin, PIE=Dry on the off chance that i may have been offered some gravy i asked. 3pounds .50, what a joke for what i can only describe as a reasonable recreation of my housemates bistro on sausage and mash night. All i can say is don't bother wasting your time and money as well as theirs.

Nice place shame about the owners attitude. We sent a fizzy bottle of wine back and the chef /Owner came out very aggressively and said there was nothing wrong with it, he did eventually begrudgingly replaced it but this I am afraid was rude and not nice. however I have been previously and the food was ok. If the owner does read this hopefully he may consider a customer service course before he goes out of business because people of this nice town will not tolerate this.

We had a lovely meal at the Tarantella. The food was excellent, the service was very good and the wine was not expensive. We will certainly be visiting there again!

Imaginative menu with beautifully prepared food. The location is good and the restaurant has a lovely atmosphere. The service is excellent and even the meat lovers in our company had to agree that they didn't find anything lacking. We can't wait to go back.

It is a pub, but one with plenty of seating, a cracking menu including a good range and one that will impress. Its expensive for pub food, but this isn’t really pub food, its better, so its worth it.

Well done

Excellent award winning vegetarian/vegan restaurant. Lovely experience eating beautifully prepared food in oak panelled dining room. Very friendly and helpful staff. If you are a carnivore do try it -you won't miss the meat or fish

This restaurant has not been open very long, yet I have already been four times. A fantastic evening each time, very good choice on food and very friendly staff. I will be back there again very soon!

Locally sourced food is excellent (shoulder of lamb recommended).

Top quality food in a beautiful setting

A special venue that our family have been frequenting for years. Expect a very traditional and character filled country coaching inn. The dining room is of the old school, starch linen, heavy silver with hearty satisfying British cuisine. A great feature of the Inn is the bar with its original smoke stained and varnished walls.
