A fun little place with quirky layout, friendly atmosphere, and good service…read more The food, unfortunately, was average. My companion's pizza was just adequate, bland and sparsely decorated with only the most basic toppings. My "lemonade" was flat, and my "traditional" lasagne was not bolognese, but white. Very, very white. The only colour in my dish was one tablespoon of tomato sauce that was added on top just before serving. Otherwise the dish looked like it had been in the oven since the night before, and the only two noodles I found inside were cooked to mush. I didn't detect any garlic, onion, or spice in the entire dish, other than a hint of nutmeg. The white cheese inside was sweet. The white sauce was sweet, sweet enough to make me wonder if it was a dessert sauce added by mistake. In light of Franco's popularity, it's possible they were having an off night. I may go back and try it again, but it will be a while before I can get past the memory of that lasagna.

There were five of us and we chose a variety of dishes,I had red mullet, ratatouille and green (pesto?) mashed potato, whereas my son had pizza. Mine was absolutely delicious. So was the cappucino brulee that I shared with my wife. Everybody else was very pleased with their choices too. Quite a small premises with straightforward decor and ambience, but clean and well run. Definitely worth a visit. I believe you pay a premium for eating in Ambleside but we spent slightly over £20 per head and I think that this was most reasonable overall. I hope that you enjoy it too.
