This restaurant once run by the National Trust was a great place to stop after a long climb.You got lovely Mugs of tea, to drink in front of the open fire home made cakes and the food was just superb.Again home made soups and broths in a bowl with local pies and local home made lamb dishes, with a guitar in the corner for anyone to play.The entrance hall had maps of the local area that were free with books to read to tell you about the local area.Sadly it’s all gone.If you like natchos covered in cheese and quick food to give a quick profit then this is now the place.The new owners have stripped away the ambiance that the place had and replaced it with very high priced little effort food hall.The cakes are now imported and there are no Mugs of tea to be seen.I suppose they call it “moving on” but this is a very retrograde step which is a great shame.So for those that remember the outside fire and the outside wood burner where they roasted fresh salmon……….it is no more. The staff were great though.

Good points: Friendly staff. Clean toilets and a nice dining area. Good beer. Bad points: Food was overpriced and poor quality. Sadly I would not eat here again. Was a lot better in the past.

Our recent dining experience in the Langdale valley was truly incredible. We have been visiting this restaurant for 40 years and tonight was exceptional. Joe and his team were outstanding, going above and beyond to ensure a fantastic atmosphere with attention to detail. The live music was also fantastic.
