The Heron Pub - South Lakeland

Went to Heron Tue 17th May. Website says 11pm closing, so I had booked a taxi for 11pm. After 1st pint the young lady told me that the pub closes 10pm but was later due football game. However next week it will be 10pm so earlier taxi. Knocked the edge off the night as it was implied they would do me a favour this time but not again. After the big game the 5 +screens, with 5 people watching continued to show football with LOUD volume, even though she was asked to turn it down a little. The pub is very echoey.

The new manager is an absolute disgrace. So rude to us after we’d reserved a table personally her and wouldn’t let us in. Yet we took note of at least 6 other people walking in and her finding tables for them. She shouted at us and was just so rude we wouldn’t believe it. The other staff were brill but the manager is the most rude, vile woman I’ve ever come across

We visited the Heron on Sunday for a meal, we’ve been in a few times for drinks but haven’t eaten here before. What a fantastic meal we had! Two of us had the roast beef which was accompanied by roast potatoes, mashed potatoes, Yorkshire puddings, cauliflower cheese, broccoli, carrots, peas, a huge jug of gravy and stuffing. We ordered a portion oF chips which were home made like we used to have as children, homemade and tasty. It was absolutely delicious and obviously all home made and large portions, no skimping as in other restaurants we’ve been to where we’ve had to ask for more. I can’t believe we’ve not eaten here before but as we are in walking distance we will definitely be eating here more often. I would thoroughly recommend people to check this place out, I can’t praise it enough and you won’t be disappointed.

Goujons The chicken goujons in here are the best in the south lakes area and when coupled with the sweet chilli dip equals a massive look at me jiggy son from all who eat them eh son true is that son. All the best. 10/10

Very nice pub. Very nice people and staff and food. The carling there is that great rumour has it that one man is in there everyday for it it! Eh son. Anyways hope the price of the pint doesn’t go up after Brexit. All the best also
