The Cavendish Arms is a 450 year old Coaching inn set in the heart of Cartmel. With Simon Rogan and his famous Lenclume restaurant we have some very high standards to maintain. Our food is fresh and sourced locally to ensure the freshest ingredients are on your plate at all times. Our menu changes often and is always being developed by our very talented Head Chef and his team. Along with a great food offering, we are challenging boundaries with our selection of 25 gins, 10 whiskeys and many more superior sprits, we always try to have an alternative rather than using main stream brands behind the bar, ensuring our guests receive the best possible value for money we can provide whilst experiencing a better than expected product. In short our aim is to make sure you leave having had a memorable time and be wearing a huge smile.

    The service here was excellent. The wait time was excellent. The quality of food was excellent. My only small quibble is the pie that I had was very small and served in a way that minimised the portion but it did taste excellent. The pastry top was so tasty too. I would eat here again

    Went for dinner for the first time for several years. A very pleasant surprise. Firstly I requested a specific table, it was waiting. a big plus. The lighting was just right, slightly dim but not so dim you couldn't see. They even had taken the trouble to put real candles on every table, which all added to the cosy ambience. We kept it simple to start, spicy chicken wings and Hallumi fries both excellent. The other half had a chicken as a main which she said was succulent, tasty, and very good indeed. I had a pork and cheese burger unusual, clearly homemade ;in fact the best one I have had for a couple of years. The menu is much more interesting than the norm and same could be said of the short but interesting wine list. We really enjoyed our evening and look forward to coming back again soon
