Saludo Lounge

Lunch with Lunch Deals. Easy to get a table. Just choose one that is still clean. Modern dining experience - scan QR code at each table to place order or order at bar. Take note no free WIFI given - tourist best place orders at Bar. Our soup was delicious. Look forward to taste other choices on the menu. Dog friendly place - indoor and outdoor seating. Interesting decos, just more cleaning / perhaps staff needed to clean tables and sticky floors 🙂

Great little place to stop off for a bite to eat and a little comfort food during shopping. Really popular with the locals and akin to a wetherspoons with their menu and drinks options. No frills and it serves its purpose well.

We went here for family lunch, was greeted by friendly and helpful staff. However the food came late after 30 minutes of waiting. People who came in after us received their food before us. We ordered the Birria Tacos, and Nasi Goreng. The Nasi Goreng was very good and tasty, it was nice to see this dish here since Malaysian food is quite uncommon in Workington. This is the only place as far as I know that does it, not very traditional but it tastes very good! Sadly the Birria Tacos was very disappointing. The tacos themselves were paper thin. They tasted good but the meat portion was incredibly skimped on. Only a few strands of beef on each taco and the beef only covered 1/2 of the taco. The consome sauce (which tasted good) was also very sparingly portioned. There are other side bits that come with the dish but I’d rather not have that and instead have the tacos properly portioned. Nice to see the large selection of oriental food but hope they fix the tacos since it tasted good.

We visited the Saludo Lounge the other day. On entering, we were greeted by a polite and friendly staff member and seated quickly. We looked at the menu and attempted to order via the QR card on our table. On three separate attempts dishes that were actually available we were told by the website they aren't available. I ended up ordering at the counter in the end. I had eggs Benedict with salmon and my husband beef brisket chilli. After a a 10-15 minute wait we were served our food. The appearance was very appealing. My husband's beef chilli was pleasant. However, my eggs Benedict was cold. The eggs were cold, which was really disappointing. It was like the eggs had been cooked but left to stand not under a heat lamp etc. It ruined the experience. The restaurant itself is clean, modern and appealing, the prices aren't extortionate but the little things matter.

Visited fo lunch with a friend as it was listed as dog friendly. It certainly was. Ginny didn’t fancy the treats she was offered so they hand fed her some sausage. I ordered a super grain salad and it was absolutely delicious. Will definitely return.

Had a great meal today here. Had lovely fluffy pancakes with blueberry, mascapone and maple syrup, arrived quickly, hot and well presented. Staff were friendly and helpful, Amelia seated us quickly, it was very busy but still took time to explain how to order and Checked back to make sure everything was OK. Will go back again.

We recently visited the place as a quick stop while shopping and were really impressed by the decor and interior. Unfortunately the food on this visit didn’t quite match the setting. We ordered garlic and Italian cheese fries at 12:45 but didn’t receive them until around 1:10, which felt like quite a long wait for a simple side dish. When they arrived the fries were incredibly oily (see photos) and lacked any garlic flavour and tasted very stale, as though they’d been sitting for a while. At nearly £5, we had hoped for something fresher and seasoned properly. We had originally thought about bringing a larger group here to celebrate but after this experience we’ve decided against it. We also found it a little tricky to identify staff members when we needed assistance and there were a few flies around which detracted from the overall experience. That being said, the venue itself is beautiful n with more attention to food quality and small details we do think it can become a really great place. We hope to see some improvements and would love to give it another try in the future
