Really enjoyed our midweek lunch. Lovely location and characterful rooms. Very good food with substantial starters! Wonderful service and a great experience.

🙏🐟🦀🦞A huge thank you to everyone for attending the meet the fishmonger event at Fantails restaurant last night. It was an evening of excellent food (the best fish north of lands end), amazing hospitality from Kenny & the team, world-class fish chat, banter and outstanding heckling. 🤣 Not mentioning any names😅.
The Codfather was in his element 4 pints in and ready for action & entertainment.🦐🔥😜(although he didn't know the story behind the name of Monkfish) There are a few origin stories, one being that Monks used to head down to the boats/markets and ask for unused fish to eat or take. Hence the name Monkfish. 😊
We will, be looking to do something very similar again in the near future. Keep your eyes peeled.
Bells Fishmongers get the quality, service & evenings of entertainment you deserve.

Into Fantails Restaurant and Bar for dinner which is located in Wetheral village. The setting, atmosphere and layout with wood burning fire for eating and enjoying pint is fantastic. The staff are great and the food was delicious. It’s always good experience to visit old and quaint 17th century buildings with its interior which provides cosy and welcoming feeling for strangers especially when its cold dark night.

I wish I could give Fantails more than 5 stars. It would be my 7 star favourite.
Absolutely love this venue, the food and the team who continually smile. Its a gem and if you are in the North Lakes, this is worth searching out.
It's a classic. There isn't a restaurant on the planet that I would rather eat in than Fantails of Wetheral.

Family meal for 40 of us. Despite the noise from our group and their inability to take instruction from the staff, we were treated admirably. Patience abounded! I had soup, beef and sticky toffee pudding. All was great, though as a Yorkshireman I found the pudding a bit overdone.

A nice pub with a good selection of food (including vegetarian options) and drinks (check out their cocktail menu!). The staff were friendly and our orders arrived promptly.
The pub has a lively, pleasant atmosphere, but we found the food a little underwhelming for the price. The cheese soufflée starter was very heavy (more like a pie) and the main had a nicely cooked fish but absolutely tasteless sides and a runny sauce that overpowered the entire dish.
Would definitely come back for drinks and stacks, but probably go elsewhere for a nicer dinner.

Absolutely delicious meal in a really characterful building . Lovely atmosphere with a cosy wood burner . The sticky toffee pudding is a game changer swimming in the most luxurious velvety toffee sauce 🤤🤤🤤

Biggest scallops ever!! Very enjoyable lunch, the staff were very pleasant and efficient. Our meals were lovely. Would recommend as the pub is in a picturesque village setting. It may get busy in the evenings.

Found this restaurant which did not appear on Google when I was looking for somewhere to eat. It's an old English country type of restaurant great value for money it has cosy intimate areas for couples and larger areas for groups. The staff were very friendly and helpful would recommend this restaurant if you are traveling around Carlisle it's in a village called Wetheral.
