The staff was very kind and attentive, as our sandwich was cut into 2 perfect halves for us to share. It is a cozy little place with a nice clean restroom for customers only.

I opted to have a Prosecco instead of tea this time around. A 20 cl bottle of Prosecco was only £5.99. Very reasonable. It was very good. It's enough for 2 people really. I also purchased a slice of Banofee which unfortunately was a little dry. It was the end of the day, so it has dried out. The Prosecco was nice though! I thought I'd celebrate the fantastic tour of the Lakes we had that day! The Potting Shed also has an apparel section, candles and beauty products, and everything you would need for your garden. I would recommend their cafe for a refreshment but I would avoid their quick breads at the end of the day. I'd get the coconut cake next time.

Idiosyncratic, unique, slightly scatty, The Jumble room lives up to its name. Downstairs us all scatter cushions and throws and upstairs is more restrained. Some tables have benches which can be quite romantic depending on who you sit next to. The walls are adorned with rural artwork including several paintings of cows! The toilets are covered with old album covers which makes it hard to leave as you recall what that old David Bowie album actually looked like. The food is I suppose restrained British though with foreign nods. I had the mixed cured meats to start. It was lovely. A rump steak to follow was well hung and tasty. Desert was another great cheeseboard. A fantastic place which I look forward to returning to-but not too often.

My wife had an Asian influenced roast chicken that was delicious and I had the lamb tagine that was exotic and tender as can be. For starters I had a delicious pork belly that was equally flavorful. For desert we had a Scottish whiskey cream and berries that was perfect. Combined with a bottle of fine Zinfandel we enjoyed a perfect meal. I hope more visitors discover this restaurant.

We ordered a burger and the fish and chips. My husband had the burger and it was surprisingly large and cooked beautifully. I had the fish and chips and it was fantastic! It was served with mushy peas and the best tasting tartar sauce I have ever tasted! The service was great; fast and friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner and then headed off back into the rain! I definitely recommend trying this place out if you're in the area. The restaurant is around the back/side and the lodging entrance is at the front.

For lunch, the food we ordered was good but a bit small and not super satisfying. Corned Beef and Mustard sandwich was on the smaller end with a tiny slice of corned beef. It was mostly bread, but will say the fresh baked bread is good. Enjoyed the Quiche of the Day (cheese and leek), which came with a bit of salads. Supplemented with an extra sausage side. The savory cheese scone with chutney, butter, and cheese was yummy!

Abysmal experience at Baldry's yesterday. We live in Cumbria and have taken friends there in the…read morepast as the food and staff have been good. Yesterday, as is sometimes the case, there was a queue and people were waiting for seats to become available. A member of staff frequently appeared at the door but failed to communicate to anyone in the queue that the restaurant was closing early. After some 20 minutes of queuing she eventually spoke up, having wasted the time of my group plus people queuing ahead of us and behind us. This prompted an uncharacteristic exchange from me but without any acknowledgement from the staff member that through her thoughtlessness and utter incompetence, she had wasted what probably amounted to over an hour of people's time. To potential customers...be aware of the utter lack of respect and customer service you may encounter at this place. To the owners of this establishment...you are ultimately responsible for how your staff treat customers and if you place customer engagement anywhere near business profitability will ensure this is addressed to prevent future potential customers having their time wasted through the sheer incompetence of the staff you employ.
