British, Modern Restaurants in Bampton
1. Allium at Askham Hall
British, Modern restaurant in Penrith
Askham - CA10
Proceed from one of the cosy lounges to dinner in the intimate dining room, complete with open kitchen of this accoladed Lakeland destination, which sits inside a picturesque Grade I listed mansion dating from the 1200s (occupied by the family of the current owners since 1724 and converted to a restaurant with rooms in 2013). Chef Richard Swale presides over a seven-course tasting menu for £125 per person, although he does well to outshine the “huge book of a wine list” – “an amazing selection for all tastes and budgets”.
2. 1863 Restaurant with Rooms
British, Modern restaurant in Pooley Bridge
Elm House, High Street - CA10
“Fair prices for food that’s consistently pleasant to excellent” wins ongoing praise for this converted blacksmith’s – nowadays a restaurant with rooms in the centre of this scenic Lakeland village on Ullswater. Cumbrian born chef Phil Corrie offers a choice of three-course à la carte menu and seven-course tasting menu (the latter for £105 per person).
3. Mark Greenaway at the Haweswater Hotel
British, Modern restaurant in Bampton
Lakeside Road - CA10
“Amazing stay and experience, the dishes were out of this world” – early praise for this January 2023 Lake District newcomer from the high-profile Edinburgh chef. It occupies an Art Deco hotel on the banks of Haweswater Reservoir, now transformed into a self-named fine-dining outfit focusing on local seasonal produce serving some of his signature dishes (shiitake mushrooms on toast; 11-hour slow-roast pork belly; sticky toffee soufflé). There’s also the more informal Brasserie 37, named after the year the hotel was opened. More reports please!
