"On Friday the 28th of June my wife ordered a “lovingly prepared” 3 cheese sourdough toastie costing £9.00 from the Lakeside Cafe in Keswick. What was served up was 2 small slices that were burnt to a crisp on the inside with the remnants of a small amount of extremely overcooked cheese. See photos attached. The toast was so hard that you could crack teeth or lose fillings . The so called “chef” had very cleverly put the burnt toast on the inside of the toastie with the I burnt sides in the outsides. My wife ate what she was able as we didn’t have the time to wait for the food to be replaced. Very unpleasant , unprofessional and disappointing ."

£7.50 for a sausage roll, the same one costing £2.60 in a Keswick bakery! Robbing !

Totally underwhelming experience. Ok food, filled a gap, nothing to write home about.

Very busy but good choices for a light meal and reasonably priced given it's geographical position. View menu

Nice location, food good. Can get a bit chaotic in busy periods, possibly would be better is somebody works front of house to seat people better x

First time in here. I had the mushroom on toast which is nowhere near as ordinary as it sounds. Artisan bread with a gorgeous tomato puree topped with the most delicious mushrooms. Served with a salad with yummy dressing. It was really busy so be prepared for a wait, but the food is worth it. View menu

Nice and spacious with plenty of seating both inside and outside. Just a 10 minute walk from Keswick town Centre and 2 minutes from Derwent boat launches. Varied menu and cakes on offer as well as a doggie menu. Staff very friendly and brought my drink to the table for me. Table service is also available.

We waited ages before somebody came to seat us, we placed our food and drink order, 2 drinks, only one came, we had to ask for the other, then we waited 30 mins for our food which never came, we asked and they had overlooked the order. Great views, staff friendly,but sorry to say, will not be visiting again.

"I would have loved to rate our dining experience at the Ivy House a lot higher but we were to leave somewhat disappointed. The dining area was pleasant and intimate with well appointed decor, the waitress and waiters pleasant, polite and attentive. The varied menu looked very appetising with most tastes catered for. We chose two courses from the main menu, the Duck Breast and a Fish Dish for myself. Contrary to other reviews we were to wait over 40 minutes before the food was presented to us. We were not advised of any delays or even the expected length of time we might have to wait. The food on arrival was well presented and flavoursome although I did not consider two small stem broccoli spears a serving. I also asked the waiter why there was no Samphire to accompany my dish as stated on the menu, this comment was also reinforced by a fellow diner who ate the same dish just prior to me. The waiter advised me that he would ask the chef. I did not receive a response to my question during further table service and subsequently asked the waiter again. On returning the waiter advised me the chef said “he will try to remember to put it on next time”, a somewhat disrespectful comment. The Cheese platter we were presented with was lacklustre and sparse, quince jelly and a small dish of chutney being the predominant feature. For ourselves we did not feel that our dining experience represented good value for money."
