Went here today for some brunch, great food and service. Didn’t book a table but was still able to fit us in. Great coffee, best I’ve had so far.

What a fantastic lunch. Fish was amazing, and not a tiny portion. Partner had the salt beef and they did not scrimp on the beef. Tasted fantastic. Drinks were good too. Hot chocolate recommended.

Absolutely amazing brunch, food was great but service was even better. Staff were so friendly and helpful, made for such a lovely experience. So many places are let down by bad service but the staff here were really great. 10/10, would definitely recommend to anyone else visiting Keswick

Visited today for brunch, drove an hour as the reviews were good and food looked lovely in pictures. Smashed avocado on toast was good however my partners breakfast was really disappointing. One of the sausages came out pink in the middle and when queried we were assured it was cooked and due to the seasoning, however the other sausage wasn’t like this. They had a really weird taste, the hash brown was burnt on the outside and also had a funny taste. The bacon was extremely fatty and didn’t have much meat on it. Spinach was watery and was left. The service was okay, we did wait around 30 minutes for our food to come out which we would have been happy to wait had the food have been good.

★★★

The food is ok and portions are in good size but nothing is outstanding. The vegan brekkie was watery and could be more seasoned. The pancakes were good, fluffy, and not too sweet. The pineapple mango smoothie was flavorful though. The service was quite slow as we sat down but the food came in good time once we got to order.

The most friendliest and warm welcome from the staff members. We rocked up without booking a table and got very lucky with getting a table outside. The food was 11/10. The smoothies were delicious and as were the hot drinks. One of the nicest hot chocolates I've had in a long time. It was nice trying the Indian pancake for breakfast as it was something so different and unique. Would definitely recommend and come back again but I do advise booking ahead.

Highly recommend the food and the staff! My husband had the fiered chicken stack and berry go round smoothy, the smoothy was lovely and fresh. Not sweet like many pre bottled juices. I had the salt beef bagel from the normal menu with a Matcha Latte and can happily say it was one of the nicest matcha lattes I have had. We sat outside I we had 4 wet bordercollies with us and the staff were very good with them when delivering the food. Polite, friendly and sensible so our boys stayed settled and we could enjoy our amazing lunch.

The hot chocolate is delicious, but it feels overdone, and its not delicious enough to eat. The 20% VAT is really high. This is just a brunch.

Stopped here for breakfast. There was a queue which was to be expected for a Sunday morning. The waitress was lovely and explained we could sit at a table outside and have a drink whilst we waited. Once we were sat inside we had our drinks and food both of which were good. Would definitely recommend

The one thing I have to compliment the most is the staff, the girls were so friendly, kind and helpful. It was such a busy day and busy business, and I can imagine it can get so stressful, as someone who works in a busy retail environment I know how easy it is to get stressed and overwhelmed by a busy day, but the girls were exemplary. I have never had such lovely service in a smaller business. The girls constantly kept us up to date on when we would be moved from an outside table to indoor, and even advised us on what was the better table to sit at due to a chatty customer, I found this so genuine and funny. The food was fantastic, and I cant find fault with the whole experience. Credit to the team all round. Thank you for such a nice experience.

Salt beef bagel with sweet potato fries on a Sunday morning. Nowt better! My fav place for brekkie in Keswick now. I d advise to reserve a table as people are prepared to queue to get a table. I m a fussy get and the food is just top drawer.

September 22, 2024

This would be our 3rd time. Ate here twice and tried some items on the menu. Not all good - English breakfast was so so; salted beef bagel (corned beef) so so; special pancake nothing special, lamb kofta was too sour. My kids liked the shakshuka, and croque madame. Our last day at lakes, we drove 1 hr to make there at 250pm (close at 3pm) because our kids want to eat the two things they liked. Along the way, my kids were worried we couldn t get there before 3pm. We did get there 10 mins before kitchen stops taking orders. We were told sorry as they only had table for 2 . I told the waitress that we were traveling back oversea tomorrow and we just drove here because my children would like to have a meal. I asked can I do take out? No, we don t do it because kitchen is busy (I can t imagine that is a valid reason since we are the last customers of the day). I saw there are tables outside (there was not raining at that time) can we sit outside? No, we don t serve food in the rain . There are empty tables - just not having one big enough for 4. My kids got embarrassed abt their mom trying to get us in. They asked me to go somewhere else. We come back lakes every year. I am sure they are not lack of business which could explain the attitude. They won t have our business for sure.

cannot recommend LRB more. the staff are so nice and professional, really on the ball. and the food is so good! I had the salt beef hash and kale smoothie, both were delicious. Great, relaxed, cheery atmosphere. I was impressed how well the servers performed given the high traffic and fast turnover of customers coming and going. Vegetarian options: Vegan options are extensive and they supply a separate paper menu for the vegan food, which I *wish* more places would do, its so much easier to parse as a customer.

★★
August 22, 2024

We ordered chicken skewers, chickpea chole, lamb keema, panipuri, tarka dhal, Goan fish, onion bhaji and parotas Onion bhaji is the only saving grace I am afraid and it appears nobody cooking in kitchen is Indian I think. So the outcome. We were very hungry, so just ate what we got. I will never come back and nor I will recommend anyone about this place. Young lady serving us was very sweet and pleasant.

The vegan options are excellent. I visited with my partner; the reason we chose LRB is because they have options that are refreshing and different. We ordered the vegan hash and vegan brekkie. The food was absolutely outstanding. It had so much flavour and a lovely hint of spices that were perfectly balanced. Upon talking to the staff - who were all very friendly and accommodating - we discovered the owners partner is vegan, that is 100% reflected in the quality and thought put into their dishes. I would visit here frequently if I lived close enough! LRB is extremely popular, so youre best either booking a table in advance or going at a quieter time. I read another review that mentioned its worth waiting the 10-15 minutes it would take to secure a table, and I agree wholeheartedly. I cant recommend this place enough - thank you for such a lovely experience!

Wouldn t bother coming here again. The decor and atmosphere was nice, but the servers were so run off their feet it felt that it was just an in and out system! We both had a full english and left half of it. One of the poached eggs was served with the egg white completley detatched from the yolk, the hash brown and toast were so over done it was difficult to eat, same with the bacon. The sausage tasted funny and the mushroom/tomato were cold. Very disappointing, the only saving grace was the iced matcha was ok. Think twice before booking on a busy day I d say!

July 22, 2024

The most awful experience, absolutely no manners. Walked into to the cafe and middle aged man serving tables was acting as though he was on the front line of world war 3 fanatically telling me they had no seats and would have to wait 30 mins. Believe it or not I still gave him benefit of the doubt and said that s okay we will wait, from outside I could see two tables empty. I politely(considering he as already spoken to me with such distaste) mentioned oh there are a few free tables upstairs thinking maybe he hasn t seen them for him to raise his voice and tell me they aren t taking walk ins and to let him do his job may I remind you this is middle aged man(not a teenager) . I felt more embarrassed for him as the customers who were seated were shocked at how he spoke. Do not recommend .

Staff were lovely, no faults. Came last year and had a great brunch so came back when we were in the area. Got a full English with black pudding, the chef served borderline raw black pudding (which the staff happily took off the bill) and sausages which were pink (which I m okay with because i m an animal) but definitely weren t cooked to legal temps. Avoid the full English, i ve had better at a Spoons - get the Benedict which looked great.

Food was lovely but it is expensive - I suppose thats Keswick for you. May be unfair to say this but being dog friendly and family friendly means that the two times we visited, there were dog fights going on under the table next to us and screaming kids on both occasions. Maybe the owners could put up a sign about appropriate behaviour as it made both times we visited quite stressful and we would consider not returning.

The guy who served us had great front of house skills and the food and beverages we got were excellent, sadly the next day when we tried to visit we got someone else and couldnt get seated, and the result of how we were treated meant we didnt get to try the food a second time. Shame really, food was excellent as was the atmosphere, our dog enjoyed his eggs too! I guess everyone has an off day sometimes. If you can get in its worth a visit!

This place is AMAZING. Me and a few friends came here early and managed to get a table for four. The customer service here is second to none. I didnt get the guys name who was hosting but he was so energetic and pleasant he went above and beyond to provide a superb experience, nothing was too much trouble for him. As for the food.. wow. We all had pancake stacks and they were incredible. I personally had the Nutella and strawberry stack and I didnt want it to end. Unbelievable quality ingredients. This was reiterated in their drinks, coffee and smoothies are insane. The prices here are spot on for the quality of food and drink you get. I saw other peoples full breakfasts and they looked amazing too. I also passed this place on the evening and it looked booming when its a bar at night! When I next come back to Keswick I will be coming straight back for Lake Road Brunch. Edit: I came back here and again all the food and service was great. Only downside this time was one of the girls working had the longest hair down, kept mostly on her front while serving food. In terms of food services this is a big no besides that, it was great.

Possibly the best breakfast I ve ever had. Food was amazing, kids had pancakes that were perfect and the the LRB Brekkie was top quality with great presentation. Service was fantastic and really accommodating and friendly, well worth the money, will be back again.

Friendly staff, amazing food! Id recommend booking to avoid disappointment. Try the Masala Dosa! Delicious!! Vegetarian options: Good range of vegetarian options, including the Masala Dosa! Kid-friendliness: Friendly to kids. Dont think they have a specific kids menu (could be wrong but we didnt see / werent offered one). The food is so delicious though, our 2 (aged 10 and 7) ate adults portions no problem! Apparently they have a dog menu though

Lovely cosy little spot with friendly staff. I was surprised to find masala dosa on the menu, it s one of my favourite meals so I had to try it and it was delicious! Only minor gripe is that even though I like dogs, it s becoming a little frustrating the way so many restaurants allow them. I don t feel entirely comfortable eating with dogs roaming around. But it s not enough to put me off coming here again, which I ll definitely do as I come to Keswick fairly often.

The feel of this place was absolutely outstanding. Relaxed and chill, perfect for brunch. Tucked away from the busier main street. The food was amazing, with perfect balance of flavours and presented wonderfully. If Im back in Keswick, this will be my first spot to come to. Food

First time visiting here a few weeks ago! Staff were friendly, service was quick and food was exceptional. Only thing I would say is that I think some things were a little overpriced, for example, having to pay an extra £2.50 for the sweet potato fries when the sandwich alone was already £10!

We love it here. Visited a couple of years ago and remember it being super so we booked a table for 6 for brunch this time. A great menu with options for everyone. I went for the lamb kofta flatbread this time and it was delicious (although it was missing the pomegranate... but the staff were lovely so Ill forgive them)! Its all presented beautifully and not as expensive as it could be either. Definitely worth a visit.

Been here 3 times as a group of four and every time everyone was very happy. Weve had a wide selection of choices from a salt beef bagel to waffles and from a dosa to a croque madame. Everything is always great. If I was to pick fault, the single toilet isnt ideal and being a dog friendly place leaves you somewhat at the mercy of the courtesy of dog owners. There is always one isnt there!

Cant comment on food, however staff were rude so we left. Whilst we were told there was no tables available and we got seated at the high chair seating next to the door, a couple arriving 2 mins after us got the empty table right next to us. We did not even want to argue so we left but they told us the most ridiculous excise. Work on your ethic!
