Queens Head Troutbeck

I usually don't write reviews, however on this occasion I feel compelled to express my delight of choosing the Queens Head to host a birthday celebration following the recommendation on friends. From the moment I first met Mark & Samantha, along with the team at the Queens Head, I noticed straight away this was the ideal venue to host a special birthday which included a large group of friends and family in attendance. The whole planning and celebration was simple and seamless, which I am grateful for. Their aim was to ensure the whole party relaxed and enjoyed the celebrations which to my amazement included dressing the private room. Most of the party choose to stay overnight at the Queens Head which with all rooms beautifully presented, exceptionally comfortable at an amazingly competitive price. The quality of the food is exceptional with the breakfast a feel treat in addition to the great selection of fine cask ales, beer, wine and sprits all enjoyed in a warm friendly country pub environment. A special mention to Chloe for all her hard work were nothing was too much trouble, an asset to the Queens Head. Both my wife and I can not wait to revisit the Queens Head with the view of staying overnight again to enjoy the incredible home cooked food and hospitality of Mark and Sam along with the friendly team. If i could give a score greater than 5 (exceptional) then I would. In your in the area, my recommendation would be to visit the Queens Head and see for yourself.

What a fantastic place stayed two nights service was superb quality of rooms and overall detail of all the nice little extras first class ! Great bar great atmosphere food drinks first class and great to find a place that makes you feel very welcome

We stayed here for the first time in 15 years during which time it has both burned down and been rebuilt. It was just as good as we remembered. Room was lovely - spacious, clean and comfortable. Food was excellent - we had both dinner and breakfast. Every member of staff should be commended - all were very helpful and friendly. Beer choice good.

I have been here before, a few months ago, for lunch with a few friends, we enjoyed our meals. Then today I had lunch with some of the family. The bar/restaurant was not over busy, although it is August, we were seated promptly. The service was friendly and efficient, and we all had something different from the menu and all enjoyed our meal. Two were vegan and there was choice on the menu. The portions are certainly adequate!

Visited here on Tuesday 18th after a Google search and drive back from Scotland. Great location, nice drive off the m6 and via Ullswater. Pub is on a quiet road with good parking, though can imagine when the pub is busier it's very difficult to park. The pub itself is very well designed, lots of wood and nice comfortable seating. Friendly staff and good choice of drinks, especially if you like gin. Food was great, we had starters and a main course. Only issue is the veg was frozen and reheated, understand its a rural location but just serve what's local. Also no English mustard! As a side note, though we don't have dogs yet, we'd definitely come back if we did. Lots of facilities for them from watering holes to lots of different choices of meals on the counter!

Excellent place for food. Creative chef with interesting different themes each night of the week. Good atmosphere and really helpful welcoming staff. Options for vegetarians and good beer on tap. Very dog friendly and great location surrounded by many options for walks and rides.
