Bearslake Inn

Sunday lunch for three after a walk on the moor. We had booked a table and the service was excellent. Fast polite and attentive enough without being overly intrusive. A delicious roast dinner with crack my crackling on the pork. We enjoyed it so much we even went for pudding. It was all priced competitively given the prices of these things these days

Lovely place, WiFi was very weak in the rooms.

It was very quiet with a lovely out look from the back.

It started promising! Warm welcomed, sat promptly, and ordered accordingly. Starters came in good time and were delicious. My daughter’s main had to be changed as chicken goujons over cooked, this took over 30 mins to change. My main also had to be changed as lamb was mostly fat. I was then told I couldn’t have another lamb ‘because lamb is a fatty meat’ only when my daughter’s replacement meal arrived and was then offered the menu to reorder!. I then had to wait well over another 30 mins for my food. This ‘the chicken’ was ok. However, there was barely any jus, and the skin that had been included that I assume was meant to be crispy, was unappealing and like rubber. I didn’t enjoy my meal, and after making it known that we were not enjoying our experience I felt we were neglected. We were not asked if we wanted anymore drinks other then the ones we had originally ordered, 2 hours before. We were left to it until we needed to leave and then had to ask for our bill at the bar. Whilst my meal was deducted from the bill, we still paid a fair price for average food and average/poor service. I wouldn’t return or recommend which is such a shame.

Visited this pub/restaurant today for the first time, and certainly not the last. Four in our party for lunch. The menu was much better than the usual mundane offerings you get at a lot of the pubs, with some interesting twists. The service and food was superb. Thank you so much.

The food was amazing apart from we asked for medium to well done steak and it was bloody but was soon rectified but paying £32 for it you would think they would get that right. Offered water as soon as we sat down making it seem like it’s complimentary but was charged nearly £4 for it, glad we said no to the nibbles as they make that seem like it’s free (they didn’t say that but have been to places before where it is free) Was shocked to see the bill when they added 10% service charge, £1 for charity and only accept card payments all of which I was unaware of when I booked, also when you book you have to put your card details in and they charge you if you don’t turn up. It’s a real shame as I enjoyed the food so much but don’t think we’ll be returning
