Restaurants near Crosby-on-Eden

The Stag has been recently taken over and had a fantastic sympathetic refurbishment. The menu is quite small so as someone that doesn’t eat meat my choices were more limited , however I did have the fish and chips which was delicious, lovely fresh fish and a crispy batter with homemade chips and minty peas . The tartare sauce was freshly made . My husband had a steak which he said was perfect. The fact that the menu isn’t large means that everything is fresh . Having it re open is such a bonus for this area and we look forward to our next visit .

Delicious food. Lovely friendly service. Two and three course deal is excellent value.

We received a voucher for Blackfriars for Christmas. Booking was easy online. We arrived slightly early but our table was ready. The restaurant was not busy when we arrived and enjoyed the background music. Service was very good and we asked if we could mix and match between the menu’s and they said it was fine to do that. We ordered the fish platter to share which was really nice. I ordered the fillet steak, it was perfectly cooked to the way I like it and the chips were amazing, I ordered the beef dripping jus which was delicious. My husband ordered the corn fed chicken, again this was delicious. We had no room for desert so can’t comment on that. My husband also had the larger brewed onsite which he said was very nice. Only fault I would say is they put a service charge of 10% on your bill but it is explained it is not mandatory. Definitely will be back.

A lovely setting, a variety of menu options and good service
