MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
I believe quite a few of the STW regulars live in or around the Lake District. Does anyone happen to have any good suggestions on good quality restaurants (evening meals) in or around Windermere to take my future wife...? Will be up there at the end of the summer and looking for some suggestions.
Further to that any other suggestions within a couple of miles from Windermere that might be worth checking out...
Cheers
there are plenty of lovely retuarants in Bowness. Hear the Thai restuarant there is very good (fully booked when we tried to muscle in one night).
I don't know the name, sorry
If you're going to Bowness, avoid the Spinnery. It's the worst restaurant I've been to in a long time, rubbish food and a rip off.
Stottie shop was good last time i visited... Drunken Duck otherwise is excellent but pricey, Old Dungeon Gill has the best chips, but for the best pizza you got to go to Lancaster...chilli beef mmmmmm....
Damson Dene Hotel 🙂
Book room 4 so that we can all see how it goes.
The Glass House in Ambleside is good. I'm not sure of any restaurants in Windermere or Bowness which stand out as such.
Try Jericos, It has always been pretty good.

Second the Drunken Duck too.

The watermill at Ings is a short drive from Windermere and it has it's own brewery, nice location too.
The Waterside is very good, Zeferellis is fab too.
second the thai in bowness. me and the gf went there on spec earlier in the year after a day walking above ambleside and it was very high quality, as good as any thai i've had here in manchester...
theres an italian down a backstreet in bowmess that is booked up for weeks me the mrs always go there deffo worth booking a month or so in advance..
Drunken Duck, was there on Monday and the food was great as usual
Visited the watermill @ Ings and been dissapointed both times, not far down the road near Sizebergh Castle is the Strickland Arms which is very good!
Taxi to Holbeck Ghyll?

Was in the Duck last week, saw the food and prices and just thought it was not value for money, although it was heaving and people were spending £20 on 2 Whiskys?????
Never had a bad meal at the Angel inn. Nice outside on a nice day. Average price and on sight parking.
Beresfords, up the hill a bit from bowness (or down the hill a bit from Windermere 🙂 )
If you go before 7 (or might be 6) theres a cheaper menu deal.
its my local restaurant, never had a bad meal there yet.
Its not actually where that map pin is, its on the corner of the main road and beresford road.
lakesrider...is that the one with the beer garden out front? Looked at that one last time we stayed in Windermere(B&B just up the road)but there seemed to be a bit of a stag do or something on, was a bit "lively" to say the least. Sure it is not always like that. B&B owner is mates with Angelo, local badminton champs.
