Our Story...

The Number Nine Dream

When we took over Number Nine, we were privileged to inherit a restaurant already loved by the local community. Since then, our vision has been clear: to honour and nurture that reputation by building connections with local producers and creating a warm, relaxed space where guests can unwind, connect, and savour food that celebrates the landscape around us.

Our Location...

The Perfect Place

We couldn’t be more proud to run a restaurant in Kirkby Lonsdale. We’re in love with the charm, character, community and culinary heritage of this beautiful corner of the North – the place we call home – and it inspires everything we create. We translate that passion through the food and drinks we serve and the warm northern welcome we show every customer. 

Our Ethics...

Rooted in Sustainability

Sustainability sits at the heart of what we do. We lovingly grow many of our own herbs and vegetables in our beer garden greenhouse and are expanding into our very own allotment. By cultivating ingredients on-site and sourcing from nearby suppliers, we serve the freshest food while keeping food miles low and waste to a minimum.
