Food & Drink
Shopping for food and drink in the Lake District can be a real pleasure with so much to buy that is both delicious and locally produced. As the world becomes more aware of the environmental cost of imported food, the demand for local and organic produce has massively increased. The Lake District is an area where this demand is increasing the availability of locally produced food and drink. The Lake District Cheese Company is a good example of a flourishing retailer. They sell award-winning cheese, the quality is derived from the excellent grazing and fresh air that cows enjoy living on the lush hills. Locally produced ale is another favourite with visitors and there are many off-licenses and pubs which specialise in real ale.
