Bars in Penrith

“Whilst on holiday, the Butchers Arms was recommended by the owners of our cottage. Our meals tasted superb! Made with the finest ingredients and big portions. The Chicken Liver Pate was the best I have ever tasted and was presented beautifully! The little unique details such as pickled onion rings with the steak added to the overall taste. The rural, friendly and welcoming atmosphere added to our meal. It's such a shame we are only visiting! The locals are very lucky having this on their doorstep. Compliments to the chef and all the other staff. X”

“A real find with the special mid week menu at a special discounted price over the full a la carte menu .delicious food we had all 3 courses with very professional service”

“We came for the tasting menu while on honeymoon and what a lovely way to celebrate!

The menu was great - a wonderful range of savoury and sweet dishes, cooked to such a high standard.

1863 were wonderful hosts, and the service was impeccable.

I may have eaten some bloody delicious food, but I also may have enjoyed the finest espresso martini I've ever had. What a delight.”

“Excellent food (the beef and potatoes pie made with shortbread pastry was amazing) great service. This is one of my favourite places to eat.”

“The food is always amazing and Johnny is always very helpful and friendly.
Well done punchbowl for another great meal”

“Had a really excellent Sunday lunch here - significantly better than pretty much any other pub Sunday lunch I can remember having. Big old portions of everything, excellent beef, vegetables cooked exactly right (or to our taste anyway). The Yorkshire puddings were beautiful, very clearly properly done, and big. Just everything you could ask. Lovely staff. It's in a beautiful village. But it's the food that was really noteworthy - nothing fancy, but done very, very well.”

“Great craft beers from Fell. Cosy bar split over two levels; perfect place to rest after a day around the lakes/Penrith.”

“Superb! Friendliness of all staff, rooms very clean, air conditioning in the rooms that worked a treat. Great breakfast. Will be back.

Rooms: Very clean, comfortable, plenty of room and great showers.

Noteworthy details: Air conditioning superb, staff very welcoming.”

“Great food, 32 degrees outside, but if Shepherds pie is on the menu You Just Have To Order it! Plus look close GOLD on the cheese ? topping , yep Gold ?”

“Friendly, helpful staff from the off. Beautiful location. Very spacious, clean and comfortable rooms”
