Restaurants in Coniston

Herdwicks Cafe

Called in for 2 coffees, a cheese scone & a huge black pudding & sausage roll. The sausage roll was bloody lovely!! Great service with a smile. What's not to like!

Crown Inn, Coniston

Had a superb early evening meal, The Beef Pie, Barnsley Chop, Gammon, and Steak were all very well prepared and presented, all were delicious, the staff were attentive, and made sure we had everything we wanted. It was busy so would advise booking online, to avoid disappointment.Noteworthy details: IMO the very best of the best Lakeland Villages, History, Fantastic Walks, and Great Eateries all from a friendly village hub..

The Bluebird Cafe

What an amazing little cafe ! Very very friendly and helpful team. Dog friendly and amazing menu ! I was just having a Late and Walnut Cake but lots more to choose from. Great atmosphere and clean and tidy.

The Ship, Coniston

What a great find! A very welcoming place with lots of atmosphere. Menu is classic pub food and nicely done, service was prompt, good selection of drinks and a well kept pint. Very glad we had booked as every seat was taken. We will definitely return.

The Terrace Coffee House and Restaurant

Called in today as rare to find cafe open in lakes on a monday have to say it was sooo nice, staff lovely and food good and nutritious, window seat with stunning

Swallows & Amazons restaurant and cafe at Bank Ground Farm

Wow, wow & more wow. The most beautiful setting for a cafe EVER!!The views were breathtaking over Coniston Water to the Coniston Old Man. Super helpful & friendly staff. They appear to grow all their own veg & salad. We both had a Ham & Cheese sandwich in delicious bread, with a gorgeous home grown salad. Chunky Ham & strong mature cheddar & Chips (someone there knows how to cook chips!!! ).We ordered our food & had a walk down to Coniston water (5 mins down a track behind the cafe), the dogs had a paddle & by the time we returned our food was ready for us.This is our first visit here BUT won’t be our last. Thankyou, we thoroughly enjoyed our visit.Apparently they have self catering accommodation to rent too. Can’t review as didn’t go inside them but we’d love to stay there, those views!!!!

Our Plaice

We visited Coniston recently and spotted Our Plaice on the way back from a day out. The queue was out the door, but the wait was worth it. Everything is cooked fresh as you go in. Honestly the best steak pie I’ve ever had, even compared to sit in restaurants.

Fish and Chips Cafe

Sara's Indian

We have been using Sara’s Indian since it opened about 8/9 years ago. Every time the food is perfect and extremely tasty, very good value and the staff particularly Mia are very courteous, polite and efficient. I highly recommend if you are visiting Coniston to try one of their delicious meals. I can highly recommend the Chicken Chaat starter, it’s my favourite which is hard to say with all the delicious starters, onion bhajis another for example. There are lots of varied delicious mains to choose from too. The prices are very good and you take your own alcohol if you require alcohol or there are non alcohol drinks to purchase. We can’t wait till we visit again. Treat yourself to a taste sensation, you won’t be disappointed!

Black Bull

We thought we might be in for a good day when we got the last space in a public car park. Finding the Black Bull was the icing on a good day. Nice atmosphere, good selection of drinks, and the homemade steak and mushroom pie was one of the best I have ever tastedand packed with meat.

The Wilsons Arms

Fantastic pub experience with very friendly and welcoming staff. Food and drink menu is great. We only stopped for a drink during our walk around Torver. Torver Deli next door.

Enzo’s Caffe & Pizzeria

A lovely lunch visit for us- stopping off the Yewdale Inn for a pizza post dog walk. Excellent service and gorgeous food- make sure you get all the dips- they’re so good!
