Original review: Dec 16, 2005 for lunch. (I've lost count of how many times we've been there before then) In the Jumble Room they serve sustenance with a serious difference. This is a small jewel of a place with an atmosphere that is hard to beat and marvellous food. Both the lunch and the dinner menus change, and contain fish, meat and vegetarian dishes, some traditional English, others distinctly exotic. The restaurant is owned and run by Chrissy and Andy Hill, who take as much care over their food as they do over their guests.
When we first moved to Grasmere five years ago, going to eat at the Jumble Room always made us feel at home and happy. In all honesty, the way Chrissy and Andy treat their guests is second to none in our experience. And the food is so flavour-full, imaginative and cooked with such care, that it's always an mmmmmm-moment tucking into your first bite. What can I say – don't miss it. Worth a serious detour.
The Jumble Room is open for lunch Wed-Sun, and for dinner Thu-Sun. Booking is essential for dinner!

Martin added: Like Cecilia says, it's a great place to eat, the interior is full of lovely things too, some of the photographs that Andy has upstairs of Jazz players are superb, I also love all the farm animal canvasses downstairs. You can see what sort of music Chrissie and Andy like as well by checking out the loos, they are covered with old LPs!
