A fabulous atmosphere and lovely attentive staff. Recommend the lamb Henry and the duck, excellent food.

Lovely food and welcoming staff and great service

Delicious Sunday lunch and excellent service. We enjoyed everything about our visit on Sunday and we are looking forward to returning very soon. Many thanks.

Thought we'd try the Roast Dinner and very glad we did. Everything was beautifully done and tasted great. Crispy potatoes, huge Yorkshire pudding, well seasoned veg. The nut roast was also very tasty, not dry like some. We will definitely be back!

Outstanding food, quality very good and cook d perfectly. Lovely friendly staff.

Excellent quality food - well presented and all freshly made on the premises. Friendly and attentive front of house staff., with everyone enjoying their meal. Fairly priced; reflecting the quality of food presented.

Excellent food served in a charming inn. Food portions huge, make sure you visit with a hearty appetite

Best place in carlisle , great staff great service and amazing food.

Absolutely perfect, food amazing, staff lovely, nothing to fault.

We went for lunch on Saturday 25.1.25. Pre booked. Busy on the day. We both ordered from the specials menu. We had the haggis neaps and tatties. It came with a large jug of gravy. The food took a while to come due to the volume of people , but it was worth the wait. We tried one of the guest ales, tiffin gold. Worth trying if you like ales. It was refreshing and went well with the food. For dessert we had the amble crumble with ice cream and the chocolate salted caramel tart with ice cream. Both desserts were lovely and we would have them again. Friendly staff. Good atmosphere. Would go back.

We went for our second meal enjoyed the whole dinning experience .The service was amazing no rushing us .friendly staff and food was amazing .Tapas dishes were so tasty pizzas were home made and excellent .An overall a memorable birthday meal .Would highly recomend

Lovely meal, lovely atmosphere. Dogs were made very welcome.

Absolutely amazing here. Would recommend for a date night, family meals, friend’s evening meal, small dinner or just a few drinks. Amazing staff, could not of asked for better!

The quality of the food is always excellent at the Pheasant and yesterday wasn’t any exception. The chicken bacon and leek pie is an excellent choice as was the the chicken stew I had off the specials board. It is a very cosy, traditional bar with a great focus on quality food.

Another lovely, cosy meal at the Queen's Head Tirril. Friendly staff and a good village feel.

Took my dad out for his 91st birthday at lunch time today. He had the burger and I had fish and chips. They actually were not going to open until 5 but very kindly served us anyway. Food was very well cooked. Staff could not have been more attentive. I can’t wait to go back and try the roast . Good luck with the venture… oh and the lobster ravioli sounds lovely

Amazing food, and dessert menus. I’ll defo be back. The korma & bread & butter pudding was amazing and my partners sausage, egg, chips & peas and also the xmas pudding. Also it was my first time going.

Our Sunday lunch was excellent, with the beef cooked to perfection. The staff were also excellent, friendly and attentive. The experience was only let down for us by the ambience; we found the dining room cold and rather gloomy. Lovely building though.
