Happy Birthday Mr Wainwright! A great inspiration to our owner here at Granny Dowbekins, who regularly gets out on the fells to sketch his own interpretations of these famous views...see if you can spot them on our walls next time you're in!

Today's Trip Advisor Review. Such a good headline!!
What a refreshing change not to have ones leg lifted!
What a refreshing change to go to a tourist hot spot and be served very good food , quickly and efficiently in a clean, well thought out place . With a smile and friendly chat from the staff and such good value too. A real example to those establishments who think their position in tourist Lakeland is a license to charge the earth for substandard food and service. Well done for getting it so right .

We had lunch here a few weeks ago and it was really nice. We had a lovely spot right next to the river. Friendly staff and the place has had a nice re-furb. Our dog was over the moon with his doggy bag lunch and our two boys had fun feeding the ducks with duck food off the menu too. Looking forward to coming back next time we are in Pooley Bridge.

We had just stopped off for a cup of tea and a slice of cake before we embarked on the Ullswater steamer and what a nice surprise it was. I had a cheese and chive scone and a fruity tea which was lovely and a lovely view to boot. Just wish they were open later on an evening as I would of gladly visited again for our evening meal

We had a lovely pit stop here whilst walking the ullswater way. The drinks and cakes were amazing! But I would also like to thank the staff - they were all really friendly �

Visiting the area for a wedding and we popped in the next day for a snack and a cuppa to warm us up, lovely food, had a very yummy big hot chocolate, and delicious scone with clotted cream and jam, other half had some chips and said they were some of the nicest hes ever had, will definately be back :)

Visited today for the first time and we loved it. The staff were really friendly and the service was great. Dog friendly which was perfect for us, even picked up a doggy bag of meat bits and dog biscuits for our dog while we were eating.

Very warm and welcoming. Friendly staff and attentive to our pet dog Bracken. The tea was very hot and comforting and the cakes were so fresh and delicious. We can't wait to come later in the week for more. Maybe lunch this time. 😊 10/10 👍❤

Thanks to staff at Granny Dowbekin’s for use of the new Garden Room for a discussion about Lake District National Park Partnership today. We enjoyed the lunch (yummy!), watching a buzzard being ‘buzzed’ by 2 crows above Dunmallard Hill, and ducks paddling by on the river.

Stopped off here for a breakfast which was delicious. I have visited previously for drink and cake - the home made cakes are also delicious! Polite & helpful staff. Following a refurb it now has both indoor and outdoor seating, dog friendly too.

Perfect stop on the Ullswater Way round if starting in Patterdale/Glenridding. Great vege and meat all days breakfast and vegan cake to take away too. love this place!

Have been coming here at times for over 25 yrs always a good meal,and dog friendly. Friendly staff and quick service

Great food, really friendly staff and great food.

What’s not to like?

Friendly staff and lovely food, would highly recommend �

Fabulous tearoom. We sat outside yesterday in glorious weather and had a choice of secluded seating on different levels. Such a beautiful spot having cream tea overlooking the river - we will be back x

Excellent. Lovely large coffee, local beers and enormous club sandwich. The dogs loved the doggie bag. Great service and friendly staff

Caught the Ullswater Steamer up to Pooley Bridge for the first time & discovered Granny Dowbekin's. Really relaxed atmosphere sat out in the gardens, beautiful scones and really friendly staff. Will definitely return.

Came in here with my 2 young daughters and baby son and my mum and dad had a lovely latte and my girls had a tasty fresh orange juice each, will be back lovely friendly staff too xxx

Absolute gem in Pooley Bridge! The scones were to die for not to mention my bucket of coffee, which they made just to my liking!



A MUST for dog walkers, both two legged and four legged friends treated just the same, with such attentiveness!



Very reasonably priced, can’t wait to head back when I’ve more time, the food looked amazing!

A lovely visit today, enjoyed our food and drinks, massive pot of tea for four with a refill pot too! A perfect spot to relax�

I am always reluctant to order bacon because nobody ever cooks it how I like it but this tearoom does it to perfection every time

Great location good service highly recommend
