Stayed with my Mum at the hotel on 28th October for two nights and the first evening we had dinner at The Windermere Restaurant. Meal was absolutely fantastic. Staff were happy and friendly, service was good and couldn’t fault the food. My Mum and I come to The Lakes a lot as we like try the nice restaurants. This meal was as good as any Michelin starred restaurant we have been to in the Lakes. Fabulous food and fabulous service. I’d recommend oh and half the price of the other restaurant we went to on our second night.

We were staying at the hotel so decided to eat here on the first night. The service was brilliant, the food took a bit of time to come but we were given an absolutely delicious complementary calamari taster as apology for the delay. The main course when it did come was of exceptional quality. Only negative would be that the portion size was possibly a bit modest for the price.

Beautiful restaurant in a beautiful hotel with the loveliest staff. Huge thank you to Nick who was beyond professional. Gave us a couple of excellent mocktails on the house as we’d had a few minor waits (which we were totally unbothered about). He also put some fresh bread in the oven for us when we asked for bread. Couldn’t have asked for better service. Mushroom soup was excellent as was the fish (both cod and sole) Really enjoyable meal

Celebrating a birthday with friends - lovely circular table - balloons supplied by hotel which was a nice touch.

The food was surreal . Of course I always like eating out ,because eating at home is so boring. When I walked in I sat down and looked at the menu , after a while I ordered a dish . Surprisingly they were very quick and after I put the food in my mouth it felt surreal ... it was the best dish I ever tasted. After a few minutes I had to step outside because I had a call , I had to go into work and couldn't finish my meal. I'm not mad but I hope I can go visit again !

One of the best three course meals I have had in a long long time. Starters were very good, mains were very very good and puddings were to die for. Throughly recommend the take on beef wellington that they do. Prices were reasonable bearing in mind the current climate. Would give 6 stars if I could.

Food and venue extremely disappointing.. noisy bar and restaurant with staff who were unprepared.. Duck pancake starter awful! shredded duck was refried to within an inch of its life and really was just bits of nothing and hard.. Bruschetta bland and didn’t taste freshly made to order .. Fillet steak just ok but lukewarm.. lamb chops lukewarm and really no finesse to them ..had to send back as so cold .. The only thing that was hot were the chips .. ! So basically we ate separately as I waited for lamb chops to be recooked.. had to wait for coffees! The chaos in the bar should have pre warned us .. one barman who was in his first shift with no help ..some staff looked very slovenly! Surely there should be a standard with your dress code .. No staff masks being worn anywhere! Barman couldn’t make cocktails and didn’t know where anything was .. About ten people in queue for drinks. They constantly told us that they were unprepared as there was a wedding in another room .. we paid over £130 for this experience! We were given our bill before asking for it as the waitress said she was going off duty ! Why as guests were still eating ? What if I wanted another drink ? If there are staffing issues please do not pass this on to the customer.. cut your tables down and don’t take so many bookings .. your restaurant is far from fine dining for the prices you charge .. your bar area was so noisy and crowded with young guests shouting that it resembled a pub not a hotel lounge ! It really has to be the worst meal and service I have had in a long time .. I have emailed the hotel manager directly but as yet have not had any response .

Wonderful food in a great setting! Plenty of choice on the menu at reasonable prices. Their Shepherd’s pie was delicious, as was the steak.

Dined here on our last night staying at the Low Wood Bay Hotel. Service was efficient and attentive from start to finish. Enjoyed our meal and drinks thoroughly. I had the vegetable minestrone soup for starter and although it could have been hotter, it was so tasty! My boyfriend would also recommend the prawn cocktail starter. For main I had the coq au vin. The whole dish was really tasty and hot. Would also recommend the beef Wellington.
Booked on the strength of the reviews and we were not disappointed. The restaurant is in a lovely spa resort complex and the setting was very nice as were the staff. I ordered the Salmon Gravadlax and the Beef Wellington both of which were superb and the better half had the Prawn and avocado starter and the Coque au vin main, again both were very accomplished. A nice bottle of Malbec rounded it all off, sadly we were too full for pudding. Both of my choices attracted supplements to the two course cost but were well worth it, thanks for a lovely meal well worth the drive from Barrow where we were staying.
