Gilpin Spice

Gilpin Spice The laid-back ‘Gilpin Spice’ has an open kitchen serving tapas-style pan-Asian dishes inspired b

With a fascinating history as a centre of the spice trade, Cumbrian cuisine has a rich heritage, and local specialities have long included exotic spices with favourites such as Cumberland sausage, potted shrimps, Grasmere gingerbread, and sticky toffee pudding. Gilpin Spice is inspired by that history and the dishes follow the spice trail along the silk road – from Whitehaven all the way to Japan.

We personally source quality spices from farms who believe in nature, and have picked the tastiest dishes of every nation, guarding the authenticity of each dish whilst giving it a unique twist of our own.

Roll into Spice for a sushi special. 🍣

Freshly sliced, perfectly rolled sushi that steals the show with bold flavours. Think melt in the mouth sashimi, punchy nigiri, and rolls that are almost too good to share.

Consider this your sign to visit Gilpin Spice & tuck in.

Herdwick lamb rump, the Gilpin Spice way: big flavour, bright colour, and a little bit of wow on every forkful. Paired with zesty coriander chutney, cooling yoghurt and a crunchy cumin granola, it’s vibrant, bold, and seriously moreish. 🌿

At Gilpin Spice, we love letting local Lake District ingredients shine, then turning up the fun with fresh, punchy flavours and plenty of texture.
