"Renowned for its vertiginous landscape and breathtaking views the lake district has always been a firm favourite for the outdoor type. But in recent times Cumbria has quietly built a reputation as a first class foodie destination boasting the most Michelin star restaurants in a county outside London. We were keen to try the ambitious 1863 in Pooley Bridge proudly named after the date it was built. The modern version was welcoming and well furnished with plenty of interesting memorabilia to browse between courses. The 7 course tasting menu started with the regular amuse bouche, tasty but not stunning and there was a suprise glass of bubbles with the wine pairing. The opening venison tartare was splendid, packed in flavour with a welcome hazelnut texture contrast. All courses were excellent but the star of the show was undoubtedly the Creedy Carver duck, perfectly cooked, well seasoned, a crispy skin and accompanied with duck leg wrapped in savoy cabbage and pumpkin seeds. The wine pairings were well matched although the Rioja Blanco, with the halibut; was perhaps slightly over woody for my pallet. If there was one criticism the sommelier needs some work, particularly if there is ambition to join the Cumbrian elite with a star. The closing expresso was weak and my Balvenie 12 was wrecklessly delivered with a lump of ice but overall an enjoyable fine dining experience and well recommended."

My niece and I enjoyed the taster menu for the second time, and we were once again very satisfied. The attention to detail in the presentation of the food was superb, and each dish was full of flavor. The service from the waitstaff was excellent; they thoroughly described each course to us. The only downside was a couple seated nearby who clearly didn’t appreciate high-quality food and seemed more suited to pub fare. Overall, I would rate the service a 5. View menu

The food and service were outstanding. It was truly a culinary delight, featuring unique ingredients that made every bite a joy. The staff explained each course in detail and were incredibly helpful and friendly. Unfortunately, we were seated next to a couple who didn't seem to appreciate the effort that goes into creating such a menu and were rather rude. Despite that, I will definitely return for another visit, and this isn't my first time dining here. Service: 5/5

Sensational restaurant, is the only way to describe our experience of 1863. Pre booked knowing we were going to be in the area. Booked in for the 5 course afternoon tasting menu. Pre warned the front of house my wife is pregnant, and they were on the ball from the first second. Ensuring the menu was ok for her, reassuring that all restricted food types had either been removed and substituted for safe options for her. The staff were nothing short of spectacular, the venue is cosy and charming, the wine list substantial but considered and pocket friendly. The food was dazzlingly great, with a real consideration to seasonal British produce. For any foodie, any special occasion, or when life has...
