Restaurants in Kendal

Brew Brothers

What a gem of a cafe! The staff were so friendly and the food was top quality. There were 4 of us and we all ordered different meals and we all said we couldn’t fault anything! We will be back! Thankyou so much for a perfect time!

The Sun Inn

Lovely pub - visited in October, roaring fire, seats outside if the weather's up to it, dog friendly (with dog treats in the menu) and good food. Visited a couple of times during our week here, would return if in the area.

Sapore

went here on 19/10/24
four of us each having a different dish . each proved very tasty. I myself had the sapore pizza which I must say was wonderful.
Good atmosphere good service would advise you book

The Cottage Kitchen

I stopped by on Thursday and inquired about gluten free scones (I’m English, but live in the United States). Unfortunately, they were out, but the chef stepped out and said he would make some and I could come back by later on that day or the next day. I went by just before they closed on the same day and the chef had made both fruit and cheese scones! As they were closing I picked some up to take away. They were excellent! I loved them so much, I returned with my spouse and cousin for breakfast the next day (also excellent) and we bought 3 different gf desserts (all absolutely fantastic!). Not only was the entire staff understanding and incredibly nice (they all went far above and beyond), the food is outstanding and the scones and desserts are not to be missed. I give The Cottage Kitchen food and staff my absolute highest recommendation.
For people not concerned with gluten I still give the Cottage Kitchen my highest recommendation as the food is absolutely outstanding. The breakfasts were fabulous and the desserts are sinfully delicious.

19 The Wine Bar

The Brexit sinking ship forced me to find solace in the grog, only to end up in a vegan restaurant, might as well have fed me to a tribe of cannibals. In all seriousness though the remainders are worse than chain smokers, who at least smoke outside and do not prop up the bar talking about the bygone days of EU compliant sausages ;)

Caffè Nero

Centrally located in a square in Kendal. Quite busy. Has some outside seating and extra seats upstairs. Nice toasty coffee, and a quality selection of snacks and treats.

Pappy's Texas Barbeque (The Old Smokehouse)

Booked online and pre-ordered. Food was quickly served after seating. Cocktails were delicious. Meats were cook to perfection. Great dairy-free dessert. Kids ate well too. We will be returning! Highly recommend!

Iceland Supermarket Kendal

Romneys

Reasonably priced, family friendly, professional and helpful staff.

Dietary restrictions: Do cater for some dietary restrictions.

Kid-friendliness: Very child friendly, they have a play park on the grounds.

Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible tables.

Pizza Express

Had a really lovely meal. Food was amazing and I love that I can stuff my face even though I’m gluten free. Our waiter Lucy was really helpful and efficient. I’ve heard a rumour that you’re moving to app ordering. I hate this idea. Please don’t.

Dietary restrictions: Fantastic for gluten free.

Wilf's Cafe ( since 1997)

Had a quick stop off on our walk for brunch blt & coffee. It was perfect seating by the waterfall outside. Sun was shining (yes really) ? lovely staff atmosphere was good. Enjoyed it ☺️?☕?️

Eastern Balti Restaurant - Kendal

Best Indian in Kendal, the tandoori chicken masala curry is the best I’ve ever had, from anywhere. Everyone is so welcoming & kind too. Always come here for my Indian & always will. ?

The Duke of Cumberland

the food was amazing had the Scampi and chips can't fault it.
Danny's service was outstanding couldn't fault it, can't wait to come back!

Geno's Pizzeria

We had ordered a takeaway for 6 people so quite a large order & they had sent a free garlic bread (im assuming as a thank you for the big order) & the food was almost perfect ? only thing was the burgers were smaller than we thought but i think thats more our fault :) will definitely be using again in the future

Pizzeria Italia

Fast service always with a smile when delivered also very friendly in shop and good use of manners on the phone food was fantastic and still piping hot when arrived

Tannery Bar & Bistro

We had drinks, lunch and dinner for 2-3 days and loved the food, the bar, and eating on the deck overlooking the river. The scenery is terrific and the remodeled decor and deck were very comfortable.
There were problems and confusion with food service everyday we were there, but the remodeling had just been completed, so some reorganizing was be expected. At times we saw pretty aggravated staff members trying their best.
It was often hard to get any service at all on the deck as the bartender was expected to wait on tables (forget about clearing and cleaning them) as well as tend bar. I know running a restaurant is tough, and hiring seasonal staff must be even worse. I have no suggestions about how to improve, other than to say hire more staff!!! We very much enjoyed the food and drinks, and the atmosphere.
We never did get to eat in the newly remodeled dining room. There was never enough staff to wait tables, but it couldn't have been better than the deck. However, had the weather been rainy or cold, this review might be quite different! Cheers. I do hope we are able to return some time.

Costa Coffee

The staff was only interested in chatting to the young girl in the queue behind me. I had to give him my order 3 times as he insisted on serving this girl at the same time, with her 'usual order'. Even then he gave me cold milk when I had asked for hot also three times. Not impressed at all. The hot water for the tea was also a bit short in quantity.

Harrys Pantry

Really good portion sizes and prices are bang on! Good quality sausage and bacon used ?
Just a bit more attention to cooking, my hash browns were barely cooked and the bacon was way over cooked hence 4 stars ?

Stramongate Fish & Chips

Food was lovely, unfortunately I got sent the wrong order , this was rectified quickly, I spoke to a lovely guy called Colin who redid my order again, fast delivery. Very happy thank you!

McDonald's Kendal

I called in today cause I never had my dog with me, I do like a maccies but I normally have my dog with me so I don't call in because there is nowhere to attach my dog apart from the lamppost near the road, if the were some hooks on the outside of the building I'd call in more often as id feel safer with my dog close to the premises and in veiw.

The Miles Thompson

Lovely pub, as with all wetherspoons - food good value.

Vegetarian options: There is a superate vegetarian menu with lots of choice

Kid-friendliness: Good choice on kids menu with colouring in activity sheet

Subway

I recently visited the Subway in Kendal, Cumbria Lake District and had a great experience. The staff were friendly and efficient, making my sandwich exactly how I wanted it. The ingredients were fresh, and the bread was perfectly baked. The store was clean and well-maintained, with plenty of seating available. It’s a convenient spot for a quick bite, especially if you’re in the area for sightseeing or town trip, Would definitely recommend for a reliable and tasty meal on the go!

Silver Mountain

Really fresh, tasty, enjoyable food. Generous portions, and friendly service with a smile too. Completely worth making the trip to collect it! Top tip: park up on Dowker’s Lane and walk down the path to get to Highgate, no parking dramas then.

Oddfellows Arms

Pearl Takeaway

Looks a little shabby but food was good and lady serving was authentic. Had no disposable forks so had to buy some at supermarket. Was a good find slightly off tourist trail.

New Fortune Chinese Takeaway

Had a lovely takeaway from New Fortune. It was ready in no time & very tasty. I had Singapore chow mein & lemon chicken & my wife had beef curry. It was the best Chinese takeaway we've had in a long time. Recommended.

Food Kendal Ltd

This place has been going for years, and even though I moved from Kendal I always visit it when I come back. Everything is always fresh and the price is better than any of the generic sandwich shops that litter the highstreet.If you are hungry and in the move, come

Asda Travel Money

Asda Kendal Superstore

Great for a pop in shop or a big shop. Plenty of different tills open, in person and metal mollies. Staff always helpful.
Good cafe. I recomend all day brunch.
