Old Keswickian - Allerdale

Here after a GL3D event. 3 days running and camping in the lakes. fish chips was what we had believed and the old keswickian hit the spot. good quality fish and chips. not soggy old chips, properly cooked, good crispy teig on the chips and beautiful sauces. not too oily, perfectly salted. exactly what we needed. beautiful that we have a chance on them!

Very clean and friendly fish restaurant upstairs with a similar fish and chip take away at street level. We both had the poached fish with cheese sauce and it was cooked perfectly. A nice light alternative to battered cod. Reasonably priced as well.

Found this place one night while looking for something to eat. Sometimes you don't feel like a gastro pub or a burger. Shown to a table upstairs. Ordered plaice and cod, both with chips. With a house white and local brew. Both cooked fresh with nice chips. The other half is not normal keen on fish and chips out but this place even got the thumbs up from her. We even had desert. We left pretty much on closing time. But the service from both waiter and waitress was unhurried, attentive and professional. Needless to say, I can recommend this chippy.

The fish was absolutely beautiful! The skin had been removed, which made it even more enjoyable. The restaurant had a classic English atmosphere that we really appreciated in a fish and chip place. However, the staff wasn't very warm or friendly.

We dined here twice during our holiday in the area and had a great experience both times. The staff were friendly and welcoming. The menu offered a wide variety of options, and everything we ordered was served hot and tasted fantastic. The food was of good quality and reasonably priced.
