About
The Moon Highgate
Welcome to The Moon Highgate, a culinary gem nestled at 129 Highgate, Kendal LA9 4EN, United Kingdom. With a commitment to creating exquisite dishes that celebrate both flavor and craftsmanship, The Moon Highgate invites you to embark on a gastronomic journey that delights the senses.
The restaurant’s menu is a rich tapestry of culinary artistry. From their crispy fries at just £4.50 to the indulgent parmesan and truffle fries for £5.50, every bite is an invitation to savor. For those seeking a more refined touch, the Italian roasted potatoes, draped in black truffle and parmesan, are a must-try and priced at £5.50. These sides perfectly complement the vibrant offerings that The Moon Highgate has prepared.
- Nibbles offer a delightful start to any meal. The focaccia & olives ($6.50) is a glorious blend of flavors, served with high-quality EVOO and balsamic vinegar.
- The garlic pizzette options are not to be missed—especially the fume garlic pizzette—with herby garlic butter, smoked cheese, and a hint of crispy sage. Each mouthful sings with a chorus of textures and tastes.
The salads stand as testament to fresh, vibrant ingredients. The Chicken Caesar Salad (£15) boasts a savory roasted chicken breast, nestled among baby gem lettuce, crispy pancetta, and drizzled with a classic Caesar dressing. Alternatively, the panzanella, featuring pan-seared salmon alongside heritage tomatoes and kalamata olives, is both light and satisfying at £18.
My personal highlight was the burrata—a true indulgence. The luxurious south Italian cheese, complemented by marinated heritage tomatoes and a drizzle of basil pesto, signifies the artistry behind every dish The Moon Highgate offers.
Every aspect of dining at The Moon Highgate reflects a passion for quality, from the carefully sourced ingredients to the beautifully presented dishes, each telling its own story. If you find yourself yearning for authentic flavors in a charming setting, I highly recommend a visit to this remarkable establishment.

“ We stopped for a bit of dinner, and the service was good, given options for seating. We sat upstairs by means of a narrow staircase. The service drinks wise was good,staff very friendly and helpful. The food was good, my only complaint was that the lasagne could have had more meat in it, it was mostly pasta and cheese. Liz had penny pasta,which she enjoyed, from the menu. There are not a lot of choices for vegetarians, but the food is clearly marked. There is a paid carpark to the side of La Luna which is available, no parking spaces outside. The place was busy and I would go again. I would recommend for a bite to eat. ”
