The Conservatory Fish

Starter main course not acceptable. Not a fresh fish or home made chip in sight.Did not choose to eat in Conservatory again. Breakfast was ok.

We stayed at the Tufton Arms Hotel and decided to book a table here. It was okay. Decent range of choices and food tasted okay but....service, decor etc was pretty basic.

Fabulous food and brilliant wine list, the staff go out of their way to provide a great service. The sword Fish Skewers were delicious and to be recommended as was the Lamb Shank, and the desserts are to die for.

Wife had the fish pie-wonderful. I had the lamb with pea and mint puree-great stuff. Good service, nice surroundings and a good price for fantastic food. Very quiet when we ate but we were early. It was our best meal in Appleby.

I recently enjoyed a wonderful meal at the Tufton Arms Hotel. My dining experience was so delightful that I made a reservation to return the following night before we departed. The food was excellent and the staff was extremely friendly. I highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely visit again if I am ever in the area.

I dined at this restaurant with a group of seven, which included a vegetarian. We all had a wonderful meal and enjoyable evening. The staff took good care of us and were willing to provide half portions of main dishes for a child. I highly recommend this restaurant for its delicious food, excellent service, relaxed pace, and I definitely plan on returning.

We discovered this delightful seafood restaurant while traveling to Scotland. The fish menu offered a wide selection of delicious dishes. Our appetizers, Scallops and Cajun squid with tiger prawns, were absolutely delicious. For our main course, we both enjoyed the Gumbo, which was stunning. The staff was very friendly and the wine list was fantastic. Thank you for a wonderful meal. We will definitely return!

My wife and I were recommended by our B B. On arrival service was excellent. Drinks prices not too bad. Extensive menu mainly fish, which we both love so no complaints from us. I had risotto which was lovely, also nice and hot. Wife had chicken and left none! Puddings home made and more than ample. Only negative was our fault. Customers of mos B Bs including ours get complimentary half bottle of wine. We forgot to claim!-bah humbug. Will go again if in area.

We came to Appleby for a walk round the old streets and shops, however the weather had other plans and torrential rain made us look for somewhere dry for a leisurely lunch instead. We were a party of two adults, two OAPs, three small children and a dog. Tourist information recommended this restaurant as a place that would be suitable for all. On my first recce the lady behind the bar was very friendly and helpful, showed me the bar menu, but also said they could cater for the children with half portions and do any sort of sandwich/soup/side dish for any of our party that didn't want a full meal. I trooped our whole party in, wet coats, small people, excited dog and all. Luckily for us the fi...
