The Best Restaurants in the Lake District, Cumbria | Eater London
"‘Lamb and beef from our farm a mile away’, ‘handmade Cumbrian pies’, ‘succulent roasts’, ‘naughty pastries’ go the words above the food counter at Tebay Services. Yes, a service station. On the M6 in Cumbria and in the same family ownership as Gloucester Services on the M5, both amongst the best in the country. Soups, burgers and Cumberland sausage are available too, as are the likes of pear and frangipane tart, orange and almond friand and dark chocolate florentines. Changing menus reflect the seasons. (A few steps away from the large cafe/restaurant is the award winning farmshop, complete with butcher’s counter and heaps of local produce. Tebay is a pitstop with gratitude.....for the thanks that drivers give when they pull in here.)" - Christian Dymond
