Reviews of The Wild Olive

Everything was lovely. Except we ordered a bottle of Red wine with our meal after emptying the wine bottle there was looked like a piece of onion in the bottom. We told the waitress she took the bottle away .... came back 10mins later told us it looked like a piece of fruit when they took it out. 🤔 they say they have never seen that be for I've drunk alot of wine and neither have I. We never got a discounted or even Free. This was abit disappointing. Think I need to do some research into if this is a normal with the wine. 🤔🤔

Arrived and went straight to our table, everything went flawlessly. Waiting staff were cheery, polite and attentive. All food was cooked to perfection, the best king prawns I have ever been served! Specials were a nice little extra too! I'd highly recommend a dessert too and we can't wait to come back.

Just had the most incredible meal here with my hubby and my brother. The atmosphere was lovely, the staff so warm and friendly and the food was wonderful! Pizza's were made so well; light and full of well balanced flavours. The coffee was the best I've had (amazing blend!) And the brownie was out of this world! I very rarely write reviews but I simply had to for this place and the amazing meal we shared there. Will definitely return soon!

Lovely restaurant with amazing pizza! Got takeaway pizzas with my partner, my sister and her friends and they were all absolutely amazing 😋🤤 I had the Harissa Lamb and it was everything I hoped for. Also, done super speedily as well - all 6 pizzas plus sides within 20 mins! Will definitely be returning next time we’re on this side of Cumbria. 👍🏻👍🏻

We were visiting Whitehaven and our hosts brought us here for an evening meal. As soon as we walked through the door the aroma told me it was going to be good. Our group mostly went for pizzas, which were unmistakably from a pizza oven, had great toppings and were a generous size. If you've gone enthusiastically into starters you will be really struggling to finish one of these. We also had the sea bass on linguine, a bit pricier than the pizzas but well worth it. The creamy leek and chorizo linguine packed enough flavour and size to be a meal in its own right. Sat atop it however was a really generous sea bass fillet with excellent crispy skin. Fortunately for us, we came with folks who knew the portion size! We may have looked tight with the bread sharer for two between four, but if you want some desert after those mains, then it's the best way to go. We opted to share two sticky toffee puds between four, it would have just been gluttonous to have one each. The cake was very light and the sauce the perfect thickness. Great finish The place itself was smart and the staff friendly, will definitely return

Amazing pizza! We stayed in hotel opposite and had a takeaway pizza both nights! Staff was really friendly. Place gets booked out quick so need to order in advance. We had potato wedges with our pizza which was served with the most delicious garlic dip! Whenever we will be back in the area we will be definitely getting food from there again.
