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.

Lovely evening at the bistro. I have a restricted diet and the staff worked with me to accommodate. Food was very good quality and decent portions. Large sea bass for my wife which was well prepared. Good atmosphere and we left well fed and relaxed. Easily recommend

Visited last night. Staff lovely especially the blond lady. Sadly even though I booked a week before we were sat right in front of the door getting really cold when people were in and out. Nice atmosphere. The chicken was lovely but sadly the fillet steak wasn’t fillet and was really bland. The soup was not very appealing and the prawns were tiny little things. The sticky toffee pudding was amazing. Little bit overpriced but not much competition for them in Grasmere.

A real jewel in Grasmere as I have definitely not rated the evening meals elsewhere in the area on our yearly visits. Lovely staff and more importantly, delicious food. The sauce with the steak was absolutely incredible. Scallops cooked to perfection. Sticky toffee pudding was a delight.
