At the Allerdale Court Hotel we have two exceptional restaurants, Oscars and Pickwicks. Dining at The Allerdale Court is an important part of any guest’s stay and it is not by chance that both of our two restaurants have earned fine reputations both locally and nationally. Both restaurants offer superb freshly cooked food, and plenty of it, served with smiling experience to your table. The Pickwick is a traditional British Silver served restaurant while Oscars, a Latin themed restaurant, is a busy, fashionable night time venue with plenty of grills, steaks, fish and specialities. To complement both restaurants, our bar offers the full range of wines, ales and spirits that you would expect to find in a Lakeland hostelry. A traditional Lakeland welcome awaits you and open fire and original oak beams help to create a relaxing atmosphere. For menu details from our restaurants click on either of the menu links below. The Pickwick option includes; a Table d'hôte Menu, A La Carte Menu and a traditional 3-course Sunday Lunch.
