Visited on a Friday evening, busy, menu as online, we ate mixed starters then souvlaki, well presented, tasty food and good sized portions.\nThe negatives were that it did seem very expensive (nearly £100) and the staff were not very welcoming.\nOverall very good

David's Restaurant

Once more a fabulous meal in lovely surroundings. Chris and staff work so hard to ensure your whole experience is top notch. The mid week menu does not lack in any way to the a la carte menu offered on weekends. Superbly cooked and presented. Chris expertly chose the lamb for my husband , as he couldn’t make his mind up! My chicken was cooked beautifully and the whisky and peppercorn sauce was delicious. We love going to David’s Restaurant at any time, not just for special occasions. Thank you Chris for your hospitality and hard work, to offer exceptional dining in Carlisle .

We pre booked for Friday evening ahead of a charity walk on hadrians wall 22 miles so we needed so lovely food and drink. Oh and we found it a lovely pub the service and choice of drinks and food was perfect. I had the vegetarian pie and mash and veg. The pie was one of the best ever. Service was first class. I would definitely recommend and return.

Excellent food. Staff 1st class. One gripe. To charge £3 for a ramekin of beans and one slice of white bread toast is in my opinion a blemish on an otherwise excellent venue. Poorly costed item

A nice restaurant with a pleasant atmosphere. Attentive staff. My meal was very tasty and well presented. One small issue that I did not mention at the time was that the 'garlic' naan could do with more garlic, either butter or garlic pieces. Recommended to me by the 'String of Horses Inn' staff member.

This is a great book shop, combining secondhand (Bookcase) and new (Bookends) stock, and a cafe. The second-hand rooms are a delightful labyrinth. They also have a lot of vinyl records especially classical, though these aren't at bargain prices.

Always tend to eat here when in Carlisle, and yesterday was no exception when we had a late lunch/early dinner. The menu here is extensive with a massive choice of pasta dishes. The meal was well cooked and tasty, and to top it all, it was reasonably priced. The service was friendly, efficient, and attentive but not overbearing. All in all, it was a lovely experience. Diolch yn fawr.

Thanks for a fab evening.
Fabulous pub with friendly, efficient staff and even better food. Nothing overly fancy or over the top, just good ingredients prepared and presented very well. Generous portions too.
Very good value for money; our bill was just over £50 for two mains and two puddings with three soft drinks.
Good sized beer garden as well.
100% recommended and we'll definitely return when we're in the area.

For mains I had the cod and I've never experienced anything like it, I then managed to find room for some tiramasu which was so creamy and delicious!

Honestly, this place is unreal! The food was banging – full of flavour and cooked perfectly. Proper 10/10 meal, I couldn’t fault a thing. We ate some absolutely banging dishes – seafood was on point! The staff were sound too, really friendly and looked after us well.

Vibes were great, food came out hot and fresh, and everything just hit the spot. Hands down one of the best places I’ve eaten in Carlisle – I’ll definitely be back!

The service was just as impressive – warm, friendly, and attentive without ever being overbearing. Matt and Harry have created something really special here, and it shows in every detail of the experience.

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and will definitely be back again soon. A big well done to the team – highly recommended!

Bartons Yard

We traveled up on the train for a quick visit. Our dog was with us, but that wasn't a problem. The service was lovely. Friendly, and spoke when they felt you wanted to. We had 6 tapas plates. All the dishes were packed full of flavour, and beautifully presented. We had sliced picahn steak, haggis bon bons, prawns, mini fish and fries and (I think it was) butternut squash rissotto. All delicious, although, risotto maybe works less well as a tapas.
We had the primitivo wine. I'm a regular wine drinker, not an expert; but, it was a really nice wine.
We will be returning at some point in the future.
Thank you to Bartons Yard for a lovely experience.

In the centre of Carlisle, underneath the Tourist Information Centre (and actually the neighbour of a bigger, more well-known coffee chain) is this absolute jewel of a coffee shop. Being a superfan of great coffee, I ordered a Flat White and sat outside to wait. I am really, really pleased to report that my coffee absolutely blew away anything that could be offered next door. Well presented in nicely coloured crockery and with a neat bit of latte art, this coffee was made by someone who clearly loves coffee. A well-balanced, sweet, corto espresso shot carried in well textured milk, it was the perfect start to a day and totally justified the skills needed to make a truly great cup of coffee. Brilliant!

First visit for me and it most certainly will not be the last. From the moment my friend and I walked in (she has been a few times) to the moment we left every thing was top notch. The staff were very welcoming and even though we had not booked and the place was packed ( amazing for a Thursday lunch time ) they found a table within a few minutes. Drink order taken. When drinks arrived our lunch order was taken and arrived quickly. The food was freshly cooked and absolutely delicious. I had the cumbrian lamb pie and my friend the corby hill steak pie. Both of them to die for. I decided not to have a dessert but my friend had Tasting of Raspberry, not only did they look good but they tasted great too. Great experience certainly go back. Thanks to everybody 10/10
