A absolutely cracking spot, with great food, served quickly and at a fair price. We called in twice last week , as we were so impressed. The soups are original, tasty and certainly home made. The mushroom soup was superb, and so different from the main stream stuff.
There is indoor seating, along with a outdoor area and a veranda facing down Borrowdale, towards Castle Crag. I could have sat there all afternoon in the sun. Dogs are allowed in this area.
Plenty of local lamb product, including lamb pasties on the menu.
Its a short walk from the National Trust Rosthwaite Car Park or the local village hall parking, both or which are chargeable. it could easily be added to a walk in Borrowdale .
We will be back
Superb little tea room. Small but good selection of hot foot. Drinks, hot and cold. Lovely tray bakes. Local produce to buy - jams, chutneys, sauces. Terrace around the back with overhead cover and great views down the valley.
What a beautiful little tea room! A really short walk from the national trust car park with plenty of outdoor seating (some under cover) overlooking fields of sheep and lambs. The service was very friendly with lattes, teas and coffees well made and a delicious slice of coffee and walnut cake to accompany a lamb pasty. Highly recommend this lovely little spot, especially if you're walking towards Millican Dalton's cave or in the opposite direction to Black Moss Pot. It is a popular spot but a perfect end to a walk or swim nearby!
We visited The Flock Inn Tearoom while hiking in the Lake District to grab some brunch. The tearoom was such a gem to find - super friendly service, the cheese and ham toasties we got were absolutely delicious, the coffee was great and the cakes were also very tasty (we tried the millionaires shortcake and the paradise slice - would absolutely recommend both)
To top off the whole experience, we had a stunning view sat outside; amongst the hills and fields we watched the ducks, sheep and various birds playing around. If we're ever in the area again, we will definitely be returning here. A must-visit for anyone hiking through Rothwaite.
Thank you Flock Inn Tearoom! 🐑
Visited here last week on a lovely sunny morning as we were staying in nearby Manesty. What a lovely place. The food and hospitality were just great. I’d read the reviews and opted to try the Herdwick pasty whilst my brother who I was travelling with had a ham sandwich which came with a beautiful side salad etc. we sat in the garden, fab views. Even the Robins were so friendly coming right up to us. We parked in the nearby National Trust car park for free by swiping our cards, so handy. You shouldn’t be disappointed calling into here. Will definitely be calling again when next in Borrowdale.
Great little tea room, loved the food especially the cheese and chive scones thst came with the lovely lamb stew proper home cooking just how I like it and the chocolate cake was excellent bought another to take home with me.
Great views in the garden couldn't fault it 👌
ouring through Borrowdale we stopped off for an afternoon refreshment, the first cappuccino was quite bitter, the staff explained that they were having some trouble with the machine and the replacement cappuccino was alright. I have been here a few times now and it never disappoints, great lunch in a really picturesque setting.
Had a bacon toll and a cuppa.
3 thick rashers in my roll and served quickly despite it was busy.
Great view from the garden.
Nice little tea room & a place to buy basic provisions. It has a nice selection of ice cream, cakes & light lunches.
Try the Borrowdale Tea bread and take it outside to look down the valley towards Castle Crag. As Wainwright said, possibly the best 1 square mile on any ordinance survey map.
Stopped on a bike ride, had tuna mayo with a chocolate milkshake. Service was very quick, food was great and the garden out back is beautiful, plenty flowers and song birds. Will be using again.
