New Dungeon Ghyll - Menu

My partner and I arrived at home today after visiting NDG hotel for the first time this weekend. From the moment we walked in to the minute we checked out, we were made very welcome. The staff were absolutely fantastic as was the food and nothing was too much trouble. The staff were very polite and we've had an absolutely fantastic time. We will certainly be going back later in the year for a longer stay.

We had lunch in the Hikers Bar after a long walk and found it to be very pleasant. A small lunchtime menu (with Specials) but the food was excellent quality and unpretentious (I had a veggie curry and my wife had soup) and really nicely presented. There is also a good range of beers. The bar is designed for hikers so is rather basic but the tables are lovely scrubbed pine and very clean. The staff were helpful and friendly. We would certainly return to this venue.

The wait to order at the Walkers Bar was long, but the friendly staff member and quick service made up for it. We enjoyed burgers for dinner and sandwiches for lunch during our stay. The food tasted good, although the dry bread buns were disappointing as they fell apart easily (likely frozen and then defrosted). While this pub may not offer the best value for money, it is a convenient option for a quick meal and rest after a long walk. We would consider returning if in the area again. View menu

Visited hotel over a few days and met a few fellow walkers, nice lounge area, saw staff being overworked, so not suprized rooms were unclean. Small food portions, overheard staff talking about portions too, management was cold with no people skills and hid away from any conversations.. food way overpriced and charge 1.50 for choc bar. Lovely views and walks in the area but when asking about the food the chefs were cold and hostile. My advice would be bring food with you and a bottle opener

We both ordered fish and chips and they were the worst fish and chips we'd ever had. The chips were undercooked and the fish batter was soggy and tasteless. The mushy peas were ok. The waitress did bring us some more chips when we mentioned they were overcooked, and they were marginally better. It didn't seem like any effort had been made with the food at all. The food was served very quickly, obviously not leaving enough time for cooking. It's such a shame as the setting is beautiful but we definitely won't be back.

This was our first visit and found our stay for two nights was great and we would return without hesitation. My wife and I were in a superior room 20 and initially was surprised to see the state of the pine furniture. It needs feeding with wax. However that aside I have no complaints. The room itself was comfortable, bathroom well equipped, lounge warm with adequate seating. The staff very efficient and extremely friendly. The 5 course menu, in the lovely dining room, with a wide choice of dishes, was really superb. Thanks to all staff for a great stay View menu

Very enjoyable meal on Friday evening following a hike. We had looked at the exciting menu in the morning but didn't want to commit ourselves by booking a table beforehand and rushing back. Relieved that they had a spare table . My husband had the leek confit as a starter which was plentiful and tasty. We both had the seabream which came with new potatoes, olives and spinach. Despite the high cost of the ingredients you didn't feel that they skimped on the portion. 2 nice pieces of fish each, plenty of olives and spinach. We benefited of their special offers, £1 off per pint from 16.30 to 1900. I have no hesitation to recommend this place. The rating is 4 out of 5 as the dinning room is a bi...

On Saturday evening four of us booked a table at 20:00. We arrived at 20:08 and I immediately apologised to the barman for being late (I've worked in hospitality so know that a delay can be annoying). The barman was a lovely guy, very gracious, very friendly and served us right away with drinks. As we were being served an elderly waitress approached us, again I apologised for our lateness but we were all completely taken aback when she flounced off stating that she'd have to see if the restaurant could still seat us! We could see into the restaurant and there were many empty table, it was bizarre. When she came back through but ignored us we decided that it must be OK to look at the menus. F...

Unfortunately, the dining experience in this restaurant did not even come close to the beautiful surroundings in which it is located. The building itself is striking, demonstrating the typical slate brick construction on so many buildings in the lake district, however, unfortunately, that 's where it 's positive impact ends. The decor, which was perhaps intended to be create a classic country pub ambience, is closer to what what one might see in the dining room of a nursing home. David Dickinson would not be impressed. The customer service, whilst civil, lacked any genuine warmth or salutation. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, the food was significantly disappointing. The majority of o... View menu
