“Our waitress Daisy was outstanding! Castle Knights is charming, the staff members are welcoming, and the food is DELICIOUS! We had lamb chops, pan- fried sea bass, and apple crumble with custard for dessert. We were delighted to have such a lovely meal, enjoy the lovely atmosphere in a beautiful neighborhood, and celebrate Mia's 🐶 birthday! THANK YOU for a stellar experience!”

“Highly recommend trying this pub. Had Sunday lunch & found it the closest thing to home cooked. Excellent service from genuinely friendly staff. Comfortable seating, fast service & great with children. Dogs are welcome too. Conveniently located by Morrisons/B&M Whitehaven, pop in...the food really is enjoyable & true value. Generous portions, cooked perfectly & served quickly by happy staff...what more can you ask for. Excellent venue”

Location
How this listing is sourced
- Where the data comes from
- Name, address, hours, contact details, amenities, ratings and review counts come from the business's publicly available profile data — not from the owner and not from paid submissions.
- How it stays current
- Every listing is re-checked on a recurring crawl, and anything reported as wrong is corrected at the source rather than patched on the page.
- How it is ranked
- Placement is never sold. Every business on the page is ordered and compared using the same public signals, so an owner cannot pay to move up.
