Reviews in Kirkby Lonsdale

4 of us met for a Big Birthday Lunch and we all drove 100 miles to get to you. The menu was so good, we all had tons of choice and ate well. The Full Sized Main Courses were generous and tasty. I had 2 starters and I was very impressed. My cheese souffle was piping hot and exquisite. My dessert wAs style over substance and was the least successful of our dishes.

Lovely, warm atmosphere and excellent, friendly service. Everyone enjoyed their meals, and wine! and there was a good, interesting choice for all courses. 3 of us had the plaice and it was delicious! We'll definitely come again next time we're in the beautiful Dales.

We have always enjoyed the food here and the staff are very good (perhaps a little stretched at the moment). A little of the specialness and variety has gone out of the food/menu if I compare to pre-COVID meals, but we still happily make the trip out of Lancaster to eat here.

Amazing food and service

Fabulous in every respect

Very welcoming, excellent food and service and as daft as it sounds, the most impressive and utterly spotless toilets (they were spa quality).

First visit since the place was taken over in February. Food was fantastic, beef salad as a starter sounds underwhelming however was super tasty and the burger just outstanding. Nice staff and atmosphere.

Came for a meal here with some friends on Saturday evening. It was a lovely experience. The staff were very friendly and attentive. The food was brilliant and tasty, and we all enjoyed our different meals. Good selection of food. Would highly recommend to anyone. Thank you.

The food and the service was excellent, will definitely be back

First visit to The Lunesdale Arms. We had a very warm welcome when we arrived and all the staff were friendly and efficient. Food was lovely, especially the venison pie with mash and veg. Proper pub food done really well. Will definitely visit again.

Great food, wine, atmosphere, service. A fabulous night out

My husband and I went for Sunday lunch and can honestly say the food and service was faultless. We had the broccoli and stilton soup, which was without a doubt the best I have tasted. Roast beef and all the trimmings, with a generous serving of beef, and a side order of an amazing cauliflower cheese. Will definitely return. Highly recommended.

Good food, attentive staff and pleasant atmosphere.

Excellent service and atmosphere, very welcoming lovely calm surroundings and excellent variety on the menu, many thanks to all involved

Very welcoming and friendly atmosphere. Attentive staff and prompt service. The food was excellent, beautifully presented and tasted delicious. Our fourth visit to the Lunesdale Arms.

Just enjoyed a fabulous meal at The Lunesdale, a birthday treat!

Lovely food, environment & the staff were very attentive. Would highly recommend

A wonderful birthday meal without a missed beat. The mussels were the sweetest I have ever tasted and the chorizo-infused white wine broth they came in was laden with soft onions. A hunk of chargrilled homemade bread was perfect for mopping up the last of it. My wife had remembered the twice-baked cheese soufflé from our previous visit and proclaimed it just as delectable as before. I opted for a pizza main course and was treated to a crisp base, creamy mozzarella, unctuous balsamic onions and meaty Tuscan sausage with just enough fennel to give it an intriguing aniseed note. The braised lamb was declared a triumph. Two decent glasses of wine complemented the dishes well. The pricing is extremely good value - restaurant quality food at pub prices - and the staff were attentive enough without being intrusive. The Lunesdale has been a favourite for years. We were concerned that the new ownership might have changed that: we shouldn’t have been: it’s still fab.
