our food philosophy
At Urban Foodhouse, we believe food should feel as good as it tastes. Our philosophy is simple — take honest, quality ingredients from local producers around Cumbria, add a creative touch, and serve it with warmth and personality.
From brunch classics and stacked burgers to seasonal specials and artisan cocktails, every dish is made to bring people together. We celebrate variety and freshness, blending urban-style inspiration with local Lake District flavour.
Whether you’re here for a lazy morning coffee, a quick lunch in Bowness, or a lively dinner with friends, our goal is the same — to make every visit to Urban Foodhouse relaxed, memorable, and full of flavour.
