We stopped here for breakfast en route to Scotland and it was everything we hoped it would be. Traditionally Scottish, good food served fairly quickly, child friendly and friendly, helpful staff. Would thoroughly recommend and would definitely stop again if we are in the area.

My friend and I were recommended Whytes for lunch by the lovely lady in the nearby antiques shop and we werenât disappointed. Lovely fresh homemade food and great service in really pleasant surroundings. Only wish Iâd found it on previous visits to Carlisle!

Visited Anazao with a friend today: Carlisle is "halfway" for us both, and I wanted to try somewhere I hadn't been before. We both love afternoon tea so I contacted the tea room in advance to enquire and book.From initial contact, the staff were so warm and friendly, and couldn't do enough to accommodate us. When we arrived early, we were welcomed so enthusiastically. We got to pick our own sandwich fillings, a huge slice of our favourite cake out of the delicious array on offer, and a drink, as well as a scone. I am vegan (despite rumours to the contrary, we vegans still adore cake!), and have been disappointed in the past by dry and dusty scones (I'm looking at you, Edinburgh Dome...). Anazao's vegan scone was incredible! Soft, fluffy, a real treat. The tearoom itself is gorgeous: clean, pretty and comfortable, with lovely attention to detail. For half the price and double the quality of afternoon tea elsewhere, we had an absolutely wonderful time and had to be rolled out when we were finished! Can't wait to return.Thank you very much for this amazing review! Weâre so glad you enjoyed your visit, it was lovely to meet you and we hope to see you again soon x

Stopped here to get some water on our bike ride. Menu looked too tasty so ended up having lunch and cake too . Lovely tea room. Very welcoming and friendly service. Great portions and value for money. I could have easily eaten more cake but wasnât sure I would be able to move afterwards! Brilliant coffee too . Highly recommended and would definitely stop again
