Struggling pub landlords should be made to visit the Cavendish Arms – real food, good selection of beers, friendly service and interesting non-alcoholic drinks (including Mawsons’ wonderful Sarsaparilla), so on a Tuesday lunchtime the bar was three quarters full and everyone was eating – even those who looked like at first they had just dropped in for a swift half. We went for the soup and sarnie option that most of those already eating were tucking into, and it was a bargain at £6.95: homemade veg and lentil soup, roast beef and red onion on white for my son and ham and relish on granary for me, both meats obviously cut freshly and none-too-thin. And the chips were not ‘fries’ but properly cooked to crispy potato loveliness. For six-footers the beams need watching, but the traditional inn decor made us feel right at home at once, as did the greeting from the barman. And I didn’t spot a fruit machine praise be. Next time we are in Cartmel we will certainly eat at the Cavendish again.
