The Chalet Tearooms and Restaurant in Allerdale

Very tasty food. I had the toasted ciabatta with roasted vegetables in. My friend had the soup which was also very good. Ideal stop after walking up Catbells. Prompt service. Would definitely visit again.

Very nice place. Lovely food!

Nice stop after a long walk.Pleasant atmosphere.Just a little confused with the seating arrangements ie it said you had to wait to be seated outside but it took a while as only one person was seating people and taking orders outside but inside there seemed to be a few people doing it...maybe the outside colleague needed help.Otherwise great drinks and cakes.Thanks.

What a little gem. Well worth a visit. The staff are welcoming, friendly and service is efficient. I had the smashed avocado and poached eggs for breakfast, it was delicious. Visited a few times while on holiday and was very impressed

Greeted with a big smile, as always. Even Lawrence, my dog, was welcomed with a treat. The Chalet have some of the best Gluten Free, locally made cake and their coffee is the best. Will definitely return soon.

Very popular tea room. Breakfast was excellent, scones to take back with us were delicious.

Delicious breakfast with plenty of choice! Loved the place and amazing service. Will be back after walking one day.

Lovely lunch after a walk from Cat Bells. Friendly and helpful staff. Good selection on the menu. Child and dog friendly. Good Covid controls. Large selection of delicious cakes.

Visited a couple of times and loved it every time. The cafe is just outside Keswick, just up from the Marina. Staff are really friendly and the outside seating is great on a sunny day. Food is also spot on (pancakes and meatball ciabatta this time).

The reason it may be the best tea room in the village is because it is the only tea room in the village. Reasonably priced food for the quality.Don't expect anything special, standard sandwiches and cakes, however have to agree with other reviews, the cake I had was dry. Only one gluten free option which was ginger cake, not the most popular flavour out there!Few things to watch out for especially if you are coeliac. We ordered gluten free sandwich and soup of the day. Sandwich was fine with gluten free bread, however the soup had normal croutons in it. If someone had ordered gluten free bread why would you then put croutons in the soup. I asked the waitress to check which she did and got us a new one straight away. We also had to ask for a clean tea spoon as one looked like it had been used to eat something sticky and missed being washed after.Has a good ordering system where you put a flower in a vase when you are ready to order. One member of staff however not as welcoming as the flower, felt like we were an inconvenience for them just being there, quite rude staff who took our order which at first we took personally but then we witnessed her speaking to someone else rudely.Other staff were very welcoming and accommodating.
