Lodore Falls Lake View

The venue and the staff combined with good food made an excellent experience. We had a lovely evening meal the starter and main was delicious but the sweets that we had were underwhelming and lacked the quality of the rest of the meal. Perhaps thinking about it 4 stars may be more appropriate only for that reason. The prices aren’t over the top for the level of quality and would definitely return.

My experience at Lake View Restaurant has been disappointing this time. The new brasserie and menu did not impress me. The dishes seem easy to prepare, such as grilled seabream on the bone, which lacked flavor. In the past, they had monkfish and seabass with delicious sauces. The price has also increased from £60 per head to £74 per head. It seems like the restaurant has taken a fast food approach, which is disappointing.

We came here for an evening meal and the food was really nice! My only negative would be that they ran out of the salt age beef croquette by 8pm so we had to order a different starter. I’d recommend booking early to avoid disappointment of not having what you want on the menu. The staff were really nice, we were served by a new starter so had to order drinks twice. I’d definitely be back as the food is to of a high standard! View menu

Drove an hour to take my parents (85 and 90) for a light lunch in the lake view lounge today. I’d noticed they weren’t doing Sunday lunch due to an event, but as we only wanted a tea cake or a sandwich, that didn’t stop us going. Unfortunately, when we arrived we were told no food at all was being served to non- residents in the lounges or conservatory. Why not state this on the website and save two elderly people a round trip of 2 hours. Annoying and disappointing.

Really disappointed with the afternoon tea. The quality was poor and certainly not home made. Some items we just took one bite of and left and we usually eat everything! The scones were nice but the jam was cheap and arrived in what can only be described as a “slice” Service was “inattentive” had to look for people to order more drinks. There was no offer of additional coffee or tea or asking if we wanted anything else. The place could do with a good clean cobwebs hanging from the curtains above us which was a bit off putting.

Visited the ladore falls restaurant for a treat on Saturday. The staff and atmosphere were wonderful and the Christmas decorations amazing but the food was moderate at best…. Cheese soufflé was a cross between a cheese scone and sponge cake, cod was completely overpowered with sourkraut and the mill-fuille was still frozen through. When we sent it back the restaurant manager came back to explain that it was “frozen instead of using gelatin to set” ! Worst excuse ever for a rubbish desert ! Such a shame !

What a stunning location! We have visited this hotel several times in the past and were excited to see the recent changes they have made. In our opinion, it was already fantastic, but our experience after the renovations was truly exceptional. The new entrance is beautiful and we were welcomed with warmth and a sincere desire to take care of us. We had a fantastic meal at a table with a view of the breathtaking lake and hills. The food was delicious, the service was excellent, and the decor was lovely. We enjoyed our experience so much that we returned a few days later. We can't wait to visit again soon.

I thought I’d booked for the Mizu Pan Asian. I went on the website clicked on this and then got a chatbot asking what I wanted to do. I clicked ‘book a table’ and thought I had. Transpired I booked for the Lake View restaurant. We went to the Asian one which had no tables free we’d been recommended here by the place we were staying at but had to eat in the main hotel restaurant. Food was bang average, expensive and small portions. I had the monkfish and the veg was salty. I had the pear crumble for dessert which was a take on a crumble. Advice to restaurants: crumble is best when it’s done traditionally. This one was tasteless and consisted of a poached pear in a ramekin with oat crumble whi...

Booked here for Sunday lunch as a treat. Not eaten here before. We were greeted and shown to our table, which was in a corner. The restaurant wasn’t particularly busy. Our order was taken quite promptly. We had also ordered a couple of drinks, which arrived with the starters. We felt a bit rushed at this stage as we would have liked the drinks before the food. One of the starter plates was removed when empty while the other one was still in use. Normally plates are removed together when empty, so we found this unusual. The main courses arrived after a reasonable wait time. We were however disappointed with them. The Yorkshire puddings were very overdone and difficult to cut and largely inedi... View menu
