Food Quality
Pros:
"The hunters chicken was really moist and tender the bacon was crispy and the cheese on top was perfect."
"The food was top class."
"The food was amazing, amazing choice and value too! Highly recommended."
"Food was simply amazing (the beef goulash is a must)."
"The food was amazing, we had the hanging chicken kebab and 10/10 doesn't do it justice."
"The fish which was very large and fresh and tasty was laid on top of freshly cut and cooked chips with a pot of tasty mushy peas."
"The Hungarian Goulash was as amazing as it was advertised on their boarding before you entered the pub, me and my girlfriend enjoyed the meal."
Cons:
"Asked for a well cooked steak but got something that looked more like charcoal....burnt, crispy and dry."
"Just been served the most inedible mixed grill I've ever had the misfortune to encounter."
"Slightly over priced and extremely greasy food."
"The noodles were meant to come with Pak Choi and spring onions and cucumber and a honey glaze but mine had none of that on there."
"Their sweets however are extremely overpriced and nowhere near worth it in the slightest."
"Very fatty steak, it came with what tasted like Bisto gravy."
"The salt and pepper squid had the most dry batter I have ever tasted and the actual squid was so chewy it felt it had been frozen for 5 months."
Service
Pros:
"10/10 for the guy with the longish curly hair. He was great."
"Booked in for Xmas dinner 2018 with two dogs. The manager Alan gave us a great table in the bar."
"Prices were very reasonable thank you for making our meal and experience special."
"Really friendly atmosphere and nice food for our day out on Windermere. Prices were reasonable."
"Visited opening night and wasn't disappointed. Great night hosted by the new GM and looked after by the team."
"The service from the waiting staff was also excellent."
"Staff were friendly and helpful."
Cons:
"Waiters monosyballic, no eye contact, just short of being rude."
"When you pay around the £18 mark for a meal, you expect at least reasonable service, the service was terrible."
"Food we ordered too a good 50+ minutes, which we were told, but when we saw people getting their food before us, we got a bit annoyed."
"After being told you had to order food via an app but not told which app to use or any info we asked for help to be told she would come back in a minute to help us."
"The blond waitress stood there with the card machine, took our payment and then just walked off without even acknowledging us or saying thank you."
"Service is rubbish! We came on a Sunday around noon, they don’t have any fresh juice, not even tea... The waiter was rude when we tried to order while he misunderstood the orders."
"Very poor on service, nobody seems to know who ordered what or what table they were sitting on."
Atmosphere & Location

"The atmosphere and decor was great inside."
"Beautiful cosy decor, very clean and smelled fresh."
"This place is well positioned with plenty of tables outside where guests can also enjoy their time in the fresh air."
Cons:
"More like a Weatherspoons but with a higher price tag."
"Only downfall was that we were seated in the centre and the tables were rather close to one another."
"It’s dire in here now since changing to Greenking - kitchen can’t cope with the amount of tourist waiting to be fed."
"Bit of a weird feel. Quite posh but chilled about dogs."
"The restaurant was cold."
"The outside doesnt do it justice .... it is more special inside."
"Was going to have food in here until I walked in... but could only drink in here as it smells of wet dogs really bad."

"Their sweets however are extremely overpriced and nowhere near worth it in the slightest."
"Food quantity is way too big, the food quality needs to be improved dramatically for the price."
