We came here for dinner to cap off a great weekend in the Lakes. We made a reservation for a Sunday night, though honestly it wasn't terribly busy in the restaurant (though the bar picked up a bit). Servers were very friendly about letting us enjoy a drink for a while before ordering. My fiance and I split the deep-fried salt and pepper squid and whitebait, which were very tasty, hot, and crispy. For a main, I went with the chicken stuffed with brie and wrapped in bacon, which was on the specials menu. On the menu, it said it was accompanied by sun-dried tomatoes and a rocket salad. When my meal came out, there was no rocket salad or tomatoes, and I couldn't find any brie in the chicken. It looked pretty unappetizing. I spoke with a server, who said she'd check and make sure it was the right dish (they have chicken wrapped in bacon, no brie, on the main menu - that's what it looked like). I had some bites of everyone else's food while I waited (she took my plate), and they were all delicious. The beef stew, like a beef bourginon, was great. And the steak and ale pie was really divine. Totally elevated version of simple food. The server came back and said they were sorry my food hadn't been served with what it said it came with on the menu, and that the chef was going to make the dish again with more brie. She said it was the right dish, but they were doing it again to make it better. I didn't even want it anymore after having the beef, and indeed the dish was disappointing. So salty, chicken wasn't especially juicy, the dish was dry and dull compared to everyone else's. However, given my long wait, I didn't have to pay for it which was nice of them. The servers were super apologetic and kind about it. They also brought an extra free side of vegetables for me, which I appreciated. Dessert made me happy again, as the sticky toffee pudding was absolutely fabulous. Just a perfect dessert. I'd definitely return if we were in the Lakes again, but I'd stick to beef, something stewy with a sauce. I think without sauce, the meat that they cook is pretty dry. But service is great, dessert is exceptional, and it's a nice cozy space to have a meal.
