Our Commitment to Food
At the Wheatsheaf we like to do things a little differently by offering the diner an opportunity to enjoy a whole dining experience in a relaxed friendly atmosphere with great food and great customer service.
The vast majority of our food is made on the premises, using local produce from local suppliers; all our meat can be traced back to its Cumbrian farm.
Our recently updated menu is traditional yet diverse. It contains all the pub classics you would expect to see but with some wonderful additions.
For those with smaller appetites we will happily prepare a half portion from a range of our standard meals.
We have a 38 seater restuarant available for parties large or small. Just call us to book on 017687 76408

Cumberland Ale has become a firm favourite nationwide and is Jennings best selling brand outside the Lake District. Cumberland Ale has won silver in 2009 and bronze in this years International Beer Challenge.
A distinctively darker bitter, with a really moreish taste and a very drinkable strength – it makes the ideal session beer.
