A fantastic evening having the tasting menu - the food is amazing, all cooked beautifully, and service and staff really friendly and engaging. Hard to pick a highlight as there were so many. We’ve also been for lunch and this is just as good, our little one loves it!

Barrow was ground 61/92 that I have been to, its OK, was stood in the home end so was good to stand, like the old days. Steak Pie was lovely, loads of places to park, and a decent little pub over the road called Tally Ho. Not a bad away day....

I had wanted to try this place for a while as it is local. I was fortunately, spoilt with good food from an early age as my mother is Italian.
I love food and try to strive to experience good food. I can honestly say that it was the most amazing culinary experience I have ever had, Sorry Mam😪.
I could not fault it from start to finish. Oh. The sorbet made my eyes water, it was that divine. We are so lucky in South Cumbria to have such an excellent experience on our humble doorstep ❤️❤️❤️

I stumbled across this jewel of a place whilst heading back down from the Ulverston monument one day.
I noticed they did a 7 course taste testing menu changing on a weekly basis. It seemed exceptional value @ £49.95 per head even included coffee which a lot of places add as an extra. I knew we had some friends visiting us for the weekend just gone at our caravan & knew that they would like this menu too. I booked ahead & you pay £9.95 per person deposit but that is refundable if you cancel with 72 hours notice then it’s not refundable, seemed a logic thing to do as they do source the fresh ingredients a day or so before & it’s only fair in my opinion that you let them know if cancelling or forfeit the deposit.
We arrived on Friday eve, shown to our table & the chef then brought out some small homemade blinis with salmon cream cheese & beetroot crumb as an appetiser, delicious. There is a wine paring menu if you wanted to choose this but we decided not on this occasion choosing a lovely Rose blush wine nicely chilled.
The meal is at a set time 7pm so that is when the individual courses are served … each course is served with about 1/2 hour to enjoy before the next course arrives. It was a joy to see the enthusiasm by the chefs as they lovingly put the courses on the plates. When each course is delivered to your table the waiter/waitress explains what’s on your plate but I had taken a picture of the menu when I found the place so was able to remind my friends what we had on our plates.
I didn’t take a picture of the celeriac volute but the rest I did …. Every single course was absolutely delicious , the 4 of us were in food heaven. The place was quiet as every diner was taking in the sheer magic that was in front of us.
At the end of the meal we decided to share the optional cheeseboard between us … fab.
We were the last to leave after having a chat to the owner/chef about how he started in the catering business & ended up doing what he clearly loves to do.
We will absolutely return to experience another gastronomic delight as will my friends. If you love fine dining without any pretentious surroundings & a bargain price then I recommend you try here. You don’t need to dress up if you don’t want too everyone just comes for the experience that Base gives you.
Only 5 pics + the menu we had as you don’t need to see a cup of coffee! & I forgot to take 1 as explained above, I was too excited to remember 💕😊

Enjoyed lunch and dinner at this remarkable restaurant. Recommend both highly and the tasting menu dinner is reason alone to return to Ulverston. Seven perfect little courses and you can see them being prepared, all with local ingredients from within a few miles. Loved everything about the evening. Chef gladly accommodates any dietary requirements. Don't miss out on the experience if you have the chance to go.
