The New Ivy House
Latest Reviews
Ate from the lunchtime menu which has slightly smaller portions than the a la carte menu but priced accordingly. However for a lunch there is ample to fill you up and excellent quality real home cooked food , not microwaved frozen food! good selection of drinks good pricing and wonderfully friendly and helpful staff. I would recommend a visit.

Went here on recommendation of friend and we were not disappointed.
My friend had Beef Bourignon and I had Morrocan lamb and both were very generous portions and served hot and not tepid like some restaurants.
Hillary the lAndlady came over to talk to us to tell us of her meeting with Alan Titmarsh who visited the pub when visiting one of the gardens in the area.
I very traditional old fashioned pub with a lovely warm atmosphere from pleasant staff.
Well done you I will be returning

The food was excellent all home cooked. Presented beautifully and good portion size. Everything was lovely and hot went with a party of four and all had a variety of dishes over 3 courses and couldn't fault anything. Would highly recommend when looking for great quality food in lovely location. Lovely views from the restaurant.

To sum up the ivy house in one word 'excellent', me and my wife are quite local so we go often, and we have not yet been disappointed, the pub has a nice old world feel to it, the staff are very friendly and helpful, they cant do enough for you, and the food is fantastic, this is the food that should be described as home cooking like your grandmother used to make, those meals your remember from your childhood, the food at the Ivy is cooked to perfection, its tasty, it is great, I cant praise it enough, and its also a very peaceful friendly atmosphere, and the prices are very very reasonable, my words cant do justice, but do yourself a favour and get down to the Ivy house and be pleasantly surprised.

From start to finish all was good. A friendly welcome to begin. Especially the young man looking out for visitors in the torrential rain and directing them to the only entrance at the back not needing waders! Excellent starters of smokies and home made pate. The Jack Rabbit wine is one of the better "plonks" and reasonably priced. I particularly like the shiraz but the sauv. blanc was good too. Mains of shoulder of lamb and belly pork were both ample and good eating. It was a bit noisy at times as there is a low ceiling and little soft furnishing but never out of hand. Just made a happy atmosphere. Well worth a 5. We'll be back.

The Ivy House is amazing. A nice quirky pub serving lovely home cooked food. The staff are also all very lovely, this was all to apparent on our visit bank holiday Monday.
My partner and I decided to visit the Ivy House for a bank holiday treat. We were seated in the restaurant part of the pub which had some lovely views of the countryside. While waiting for our food an elderly lady who was also dining was taken very ill and an ambulance was called. Without going into too much detail the staff made a real effort at helping the lady, especially Martin (I think his name was) who from what I can gather was the chef. Once the elderly woman was taken care of and our food arrived we received massive apologies for the wait, which really wasn't necessary considering the events!
When the food came it was a medley of melt in the mouth goodness and all very reasonably priced, I would not hesitate to visit this lovely place again!
Thank you

Passed this pub/restraurant many times over the years and decided to give it a try. We went on a Tuesday early eavening. Cosy and welcoming inside. We both ordered the mixed veg soup to start, it was delicious. For the mains I ordered the pulled beef, it melted in the mouth, the mash potato was lovely and creamy. My other half had the steak and ale pie, he said it was tasty and the hand cooked chips were perfect. We shall visit again soon.

Have eaten here 4 or 5 times now and always had and enjoyable time. Food is always lovely and good portion size. Staff friendly and efficient. Prices very reasonable for the quality of food. Can highly recommend the 10 hour slow cooked pulled beef! Might be worth booking at weekends as it does get quite busy!

Amazing food. Exceeded expectations to find corked bottle of wine in house. Looks simple from the outside and welcoming within. Definitely recommend. I had Sea Bass which was cooked ro perfection. He had steak n ale pie. Beef that melts in your mouth. This is our first time and will definitely be returning. A must visit!

Visited with as a party of 5 on a Saturday night booked table in advance as knew it would be busy. This is my 3 rd visit and it was just as good as before food was excellent all home cooked no freeze dried rubbish here. The steak and ale pie is to die for and my husband always enjoys the good selection of old ales on tap. I would definitely recommend the ivy house.

A lovely place with a big carpark and garden for the summer time. When you enter it looks quite small..but then you go down the few steps into the restaurant its quaint and seats about 50. The waiting staff have lovely smiles, (but are very busy) and cater for everything you need. The food portions are plentyfull and their hand cut chips are great...we both had fish, and shared a portion of onion rings..then we had a desert..cheesecake and apple pie, all fab. Bar staff arr very friendly too.
My only criticism would be, I think they could have a few more mains on the menu. We would deffinately go again..
Thank you for a nice evening.

Popped after visiting someone in the home close to the pub. A warm welcome from the moment we went in, barman was pleasant, the beer just right. Then decided to eat, asked if there was any tables & was promptly shown to a table by a young lady. The food was as good as it gets, wife had pulled beef, which she is still going on about, everything was perfect for her, I had the lasagne with garlic bread, chips & salad everything again cooked to perfection, followed by profiteroles for both. Excellent value, excellent food & excellent service. Might even visit the mother in law again at this rate!!

The Coniston Centre would like to say a big thank you to you Hilary, Martin and all the staff at The Ivy House for providing Christmas lunch outings for our Service Users and their relatives. The food was superb, hot and most of all homemade by Martin himself, whilst catering for the varying dietary requirements of our Service Users. Everybody had a lovely time and thoroughly enjoyed themselves. We will definitely be recommending you to others and be visiting again soon!
