Restaurant description
Set amidst the stunning landscapes of the Lake District and winner of Cumbria Pub of the Year 2014, The Wild Boar Grill and Smokehouse showcases modern but hearty British food. Discover roaring open fires, sprawling rugs and low beamed ceilings in the cosy dining room.
Priding itself on its traditional décor bursting with character, The Wild Boar Inn also boasts an open kitchen for views of the chefs in action. Snack on pork crackling before sampling starters such as snails in herb, garlic and brandy cream, or game pie with piccalilli.
Guests can choose from mains including wild boar chop, and poached fillet of turbot with langoustines. Traditional pub classics such as the home roast and fish and chips can also be found on the Wild Boar Grill menu. Apple and homemade toffee vodka sorbet is a highlight among the desserts, and the wine list is substantial.
In close proximity to the famous Lake Windermere, The Wild Boar in Cumbria is a favourite with both locals and visitors. Windermere Train Station is a 10-minute drive away.

Overrated. Limited choice. Anyone could knock out steaks like these. To balance this comment the pork ribs were special. Overpriced but a special setting.

we had the alternative afternoon tea and omg it was amazing we loved everything about it but the standout dish on their for me was the beef stuffed yorkshire pudding. The whole thing was great value for money and by far the best afternoon tea i have had. The venue itself was clean and we felt very safe and looked after. It’s got a country pub feel but quirky at the same time. would definitely visit again if we come back to the lake district.
