Coco Mill in Carlisle

Ah, Coco Mill – what a gem of a spot in Carlisle for a proper pub outing! From the moment you step in, you're greeted with this inviting atmosphere that's just right for chatting over a pint or enjoying a meal with mates. The food really steals the show; think mouth-watering dishes like Chicken Parmesan and Shepherd's Pie that are packed with flavour and come in portions so generous you'll struggle to finish them. It's clear from the buzz that the staff are on point, always friendly and ready to make your visit memorable, whether you're opting for a plant-based option or something for the little ones. They've got a fantastic range of drinks too, from crafted cocktails to brews that pair perfectly with their hearty feasts. On the flip side, though, their policy on bookings feels a tad firm – you'll get charged if you don't show or cancel late, so it's best to sort that out in advance to keep things smooth. All in all, it's a solid choice for a night out, with plenty of positives that outweigh the minor niggles, making it well worth a visit if you're in the area.
