Loved it. Very quiet for a Saturday but the food was perfect. Food choice limited but you can see the menu before booking. My wife had the trout and I had the lamb both were just what we wanted and perfectly cooked. Would highly recommend very peaceful compared to most other restaurants in Keswick.
