Dog-friendly restaurants & cafés in Ambleside

Lunch with the dog under the table, not tied to a post outside. Where Ambleside says yes indoors, we say so — and where it is the terrace only, we say that too.

Force Cafe and Terrace

LA22 0QY
No reviews yet

In the old Kelsick Grammar building on Stock Ghyll Lane, five minutes up from the market place and right at the foot of the path to Stock Ghyll Force. Its own site describes the welcome as being "for friends, families, and four-legged adventurers alike", and the building is one large room with an equally large terrace looking back over the roofs of the town. Breakfast and brunch run to 11.45am and lunch to 3pm, with pizza on Friday and Saturday evenings when booking is needed. It is the obvious stop coming down off Wansfell or the waterfall path.

Lucy's of Ambleside

LA22 0DH
No reviews yet

A long-standing Ambleside kitchen and deli that has fed walkers since the 1980s, strong on special diets. Dogs are welcome inside, but only a limited number of tables are dog-friendly, so telephone ahead and book rather than turning up hopeful.
