British Restaurants in Grasmere

“Rarebit, quiche and scones are all excellent!

Vegetarian options: Good vegetarian options available - including a main special too”

“A warm welcome greeted us as soon as we walked into Heidi's cafe, the staff are very friendly and Craig took time to spoil our pug Floki with dog biscuits. The full English breakfast was delicious, as was the loose leaf tea and filter coffee. Will definitely visit again and again when we're in Grasmere. Highly recommend.”

“Just delicious food. We bought sandwiches, cakes and drinks and ate them in the park. Good value and would highly recommend.

Vegetarian options: There are two veggie sandwiches. One is cheddar cheese, salad and an apricot chutney (delicious). The other is coronation chick peas I think. The bread is a fabulous focaccia.”

“Honestly one of the best meals we've had in a very long time. We arrived an hour later than our booking as we'd got the time wrong but this was not issue, the book was full of bookings but they still managed to fit us in. The scallops were cooked to perfection and the French onion soup so tasty. We both had the lamb and it was so tasty and tender and the dauphinoise were to die for. To finish we shared a sticky toffee pudding and again it was sensational. Everything from the food to the service was top notch. 100% recommended from us.”

“We've visited the Lake District every year for the last few years around our birthdays and we've made a point of visiting Grasmere on the way back for 2 reasons: the gingerbread shop and to have lunch at the tea gardens. The tea gardens have absolutely lovely food, lovely staff, and a really nice view of the river in the outdoor seating area at the back. I'm sure we'll be back next year.

Only thing to be aware of is it can get quite busy around lunch some days so depending on what time you're going there may be a short wait outside. It's worth it though!”
