This newly refurbished restaurant strikes a perfect balance between good food and comfort. The dining room is especially beautiful, but the whole place has a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere. Homemade mince pies were incredible and the service was friendly and accommodating, adding to the overall enjoyable experience. It’s clear the team has put a lot of thought into the food and the setting. A refined yet approachable spot worth visiting. We went to the opening night and had a fantastic time. The handled the stresses of a first night so well and we had delicious food and plenty to drink, the atmosphere was amazing too. Well worth a visit! We tried a range of options on the A La Carte Menu and all were fantastic. Edited to add: we have visited several times since it opened. Whether we go for a meal or just for a couple of drinks in the bar they are always extremely welcoming (and the food exceptional). Extremely nice location peaceful village lovely atmosphere and very friendly and helpful staff. Had the Sunday roast and is probably the best in area. Had roast beef was super tasty and tender with all the trimmings Went to The Oak for their Valentine evening tasting menu. Fabulous evening - champagne welcome drink followed by delicious food. Lovely cosy atmosphere and friendly welcoming staff. Our favourite place for fine dining in the Carlisle area. Visited as a group of 8 and enjoyed the tasting menu on the Chef’s table. We honestly couldn’t fault a thing! The food was absolutely amazing! We loved the theatre of the chefs table with the chefs personally talking us through each course as it’s served. The whole experience was fantastic and we can’t wait to return. What a hidden gem this place is. Wonderful friendly staff, great ambiance and absolutely sensational food. We opted for the tasting menu and the presentation and delicious food, flavours and textures with each course made it hard to pick a favourite! We will definitely be back. Can’t recommend this place highly enough. We had a great time at The Old Oak. Never having been there we didn’t know what to expect we were delighted. What a great experience. Thank you. Unfortunately I suffer with a wheat and dairy intolerance and it’s very hard for me to go out with family and enjoy food. This is the first time I haven’t felt anxious or embarrassed about asking for dietary options, the knew exactly what I could and couldn’t eat, not only did they make the food suitable for me to eat they even substituted small things to replace the stuff I couldn’t eat! We would 100% be back, the atmosphere was amazing and the two lovely girls who served us upstairs were the kindest people I’ve ever met! Funnily enough I had my first job here as a pot washer in 2015 and to see the pub thriving this much makes me very happy. I also need to add the gluten free bread and dairy free butter they provided was the best bread I’ve EVER tasted and to bring little extra milkshakes and minces at the end but to also include me with my own…melted my heart!! Thank you all for an amazing night with Fantastic food. The could not have been better they were amazing and very attentive from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. The food was delicious and great value for money. We traveled from Newcastle and will definitely add this to our visit list when ever in the area Our first visit to The Oak and it didn’t disappoint. We had the Sunday roast including starters and the food was excellent! Very well presented and the flavours were delicious. Sunday roasts can be too much but the portions were spot on. The service you couldn’t fault either as the manager and her team were very attentive throughout. Highly recommend and we will definitely be back soon Delicious Sunday Lunch, absolutely top notch. Particularly loved the Wild Mushroom Velouté starter and the Pork Belly Sunday main, the sides with this were excellent too. Thank you for a wonderful lunch. We will recommend and will be back.
