British, Modern Restaurants in Sedbergh
1. The Punch Bowl Inn
British, Modern restaurant in Crosthwaite
This “great country gastropub with rooms” near Windermere – “a favourite pub in Cumbria” – has earned a reputation for “consistent” delivery of “meals a cut above the standard of normal pub restaurants” under owner Richard Rose. Built almost 200 years ago, it was originally the village smithy.
2. The Black Bull Inn
British, Modern restaurant in Sedbergh
44 Main Street - LA10
This “wonderful and cosy restaurant” in a “very smart old inn” (“on the narrow main street in Sedbergh”) serves “really interesting food (Cumbrian produce, Japanese hints here and there)” from chef Nina Matsunaga, who grew up in a Japanese expat family in Germany and settled here with her Dalesman husband and business partner James Ratcliffe six years ago. “The menu is interesting: sort of like a pub, with a few ‘eh what?’ items thrown in, some over-promising, some very good”. “Well worth a detour off the M6” – it’s also “worth staying over and doing a bit of walking in the beautiful Eden Valley”.
3. The Black Swan
British, Modern restaurant in Ravenstonedale
Fell Road - CA17
2023 Review: This “small, family-run hotel” in the idyllic Eden Valley has a “lovely restaurant” serving “good-quality locally sourced food” which includes “some very unusual dishes with lovely flavours”. The “front-of-house staff are great”, and you can make your stay more adventurous by glamping in a yurt in their private forest.
4. The Lunesdale Arms
British, Modern restaurant in Tunstall
Main Street - LA6
2022 Review: An “interesting, imaginative menu” giving a modern British twist to Mediterranean cooking “caters for all tastes” at this pub, which features an attractive contemporary interior. “Desserts are especially delicious.”
5. Source (fka Hrishi), Gilpin Hotel
British, Modern restaurant in Windermere
Crook Rd - LA23
“A smart but ultra-comfortable Lakeland hotel with a stunning restaurant from ex-Fat Duck chef Ollie Bridgewater, who has really put his stamp on the menu over the last year, with cooking that is original, refined and absolutely delicious”. The venue itself is “spread over a couple of dining rooms, with well-set tables complete with white tablecloths”. This is “clever cooking” such as “gnocchi with identically shaped mousses of the local St James cheese – a remarkable dish with an intense truffled jus gras”; or “Lobster pappardelle – thin pasta with some herbs rolled in, excellent sauce and Oscietra caviar”. The menu is based around three courses with an ‘Origin’ menu for £90 per person; or a ‘Source Culinary Journey’ for £120 per person. As well as its evident gastronomic attributes, it’s also often recommended as a “romantic” destination too.
