We ate here for the first time last week, and the food was amazing and well priced for the decent portion sizes. We had the Seabass and Chicken which were both delicious. The staff were friendly and efficient too. Unfortunately they had completely run out of their famous cheesecake due to closing the next day for the winter, but that just means we'll have to return!

We love Lewis's and keep coming back. Always have great food, in a lovely atmosphere. Well priced. Wine selection is good, and well priced too. Our last visit was for a girls catch up. We had a lovely evening thank you. Enjoy your well deserved holiday.

We went to Lewis’s for my husband’s birthday treat. We had never been before. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal . I had the stuffed chicken breast and my husband had the lamb. Both delicious. The service was friendly and efficient. Our only criticism - only an observation- was that the layout was a bit formal- a few plants and pictures would add more ambiance. Will definitely go back though.

Lovely evening from start to finish. Wonderful food, I had lamb which was just to die for and my wife had the fillet steak which was superb, and the dauphinoise potatoes were simply the best. Lovely ambience and service, very impressed and would highly recommend 10/10.

Been coming to Grasmere for around 6 years now but this was our first experience at dining at Lewis's Bistro. What an amazing gem we found. The Bistro itself looks beautiful and well set up and we just knew we were going to have a great night. The food was simply amazing. A medium rare steak for main and a lemon posset for desert always capture my eye while dining out but the highlight was the Black Pudding stack for starters. That packs a punch. My wife's Lamb Rack was her highlight but literally the whole night was a delight. Being in the catering business ourselves, we know that attention to detail and great customer service is second to none and I must say, all boxes are ticked here. Great chatting with you Lewis. Definitely returning and a place to cherish. Lee & Lisa

Our 6th or 7th visit to this lovely bistro in Grasmere, and once again it did not disappoint. A warm welcome on arrival, the staff remembered us from our last visit a year ago! The restaurant had a lovely comfortable atmosphere. The food was delicious. I had the starter of Hummus & pita , my husband had the olives & bread, both dishes were plentiful. For the main meal, my husband had the lamb rack with various veg ...he thoroughly enjoyed the lamb, perfectly cooked! I had the chicken dish which was very good. Ice cream to round off a very enjoyable evening.

Me and my husband were in Grasmere this weekend celebrating and wanted to dine somewhere special. We are so delighted with our choice and already can't wait to go back to try something different. My husband is vegan and he said their food was outstanding. Please don't hesitate to book or visit this place.
