The Plough Inn Wreay - Carlisle

I Went for a meal for my daughters birthday, I am a celiac and checked with staff the items I ordered were definitely gluten free, I have been here before and had no issues, but Unfortunately this time 2 hours after the meal, I was getting the usual tell tale symptoms of gluten poisoning and was soon extremely ill. I phoned the manager the next day and also spoke with the chef, and although both were very apologetic, we’re both very certain I had in no way consumed gluten from them. I hadn’t eaten anywhere else that day and have been a celiac for over 25 years so know when I have ingested gluten, and know the symptoms always start at 2 hours after eating it. Had the manager and chef been a bit more open to the chance that some sort of cross contamination must have occurred I would have given the place another chance, very carefully I must add. But as both manager and chef were adamant it wasn’t their food that had poisoned me, I’m afraid all trust has been lost and I will unfortunately not be able to return

Found this pub on a whim and I’m really glad we did. Service was brilliant and really quick but there was still enough time between each course to have a drink and relax. The pub itself is beautiful inside and the food was amazing and great quality. Really made our day finding this place and will definitely be coming back.

Large eating, large portions, very tasty cauliflower cheese. efficient and friendly staff. the candy starter, after the head of the roast and lamb, we had no place for a pudding. we will go back.

Eating was very good, but at first the room was quite cold. overall it was good enough to guarantee a revisit!

One of our friends is a celiac and the menu had so much choice of gluten-free food. it did not feel like it was a pain to order gluten for free. the food was nice and the service was also brilliant.
