Bellisimo! - Edit
Fabulous place, a bit more upmarket than Zefferellis (owned by the same people). The cinema and meal deal is fantastic value but do be warned. adding wine can really bump the price up! Had fantastic service the last time we were there and the food was delicious. It's not somewhere to go if you're starving, the portions are on the haute cuisine side but for a special occasion Fellinis is wonderful, highly recommended.

Must try - Edit
Had the tofu dish, was some of the best food I’ve ever had. Non vegans with me were also satisfied. Ambiance and service was great as well, cant recommend enough.

Excellent place! - Edit
Wonderful food, wine and service. I had a leek and mushroom tart followed by stuffed mushrooms. It was all beautifully cooked and presented. Flawless. The wine was great too. Only wish I'd had room for dessert!

Wonderful birthday dinner - Edit
As a surprise, I was taken here for my birthday back in May. When I sat down and saw the menu I was so happy they had vegan options and expected my partner to have a separate omni menu, so it was extra special to find that it was in fact a meat free restaurant.
Read moreThe restaurant itself is wonderfully spacious and elegant and is perfect for date night or something special.
I had a glass of prosecco, and we kicked things off with the homemade breads with olives, which were divine. I then dove straight into the Puy Lentil and Cashew Nut Roast with Boulangere potato, Roasted Vegetables and Peppercorn Sauce. Followed by the Gooseburry & Ginger Crumble with sorbet and a double espresso, the meal was simply outstanding.
Pros: Wonderful menu, Works of art on a plate, Delicious food

Tasty and upscale - Edit
Very nice vegetarian restaurant with a cinema upstairs! We shared the cauliflower, lentil and nut roast, and moussaka. Everything was tasty but not outstanding. Still would recommend and great to have a fully vegetarian restaurant in such a small town!

Awesome 👏 - Edit
We went here and had olives and bread a starter and a main course each plus a large beer and wine which represented 18% of the bill. The food was fantastic, delicious and the service impeccable. Definitely one of the best places I have ever eaten Vegan food and was by no means the most expensive place I have eaten in. For me this place offered exceptional value for money and I can not recommend it highly enough. 😍🤤

Delicious and amazing vegan choices - Edit
I dined with my husband and felt immediately at ease and comfortable in the lovely restaurant. We shared 2 starters, mains and desserts.
Read moreThe fig salad and artichoke salad were both delicious and a great way to start the meal, both were £8.50. The bread basket with balsamic glaze dip & olive oil was a great portion size with lots of variety of breads. There was a tomato bread that was particularly delicious. The mains we tried were Cauliflower katsu with quinoa and Courgette cannelloni filled with cashew & lentil nut roast. The nut roast was the most delicious thing I’ve eaten in a long time and I’d go back for a full plate of it. Both mains were £17.50.
We had desserts of porched pear & ice cream and rhubarb crumble with ice cream. Great choices! At least 75% of the menu is already vegan or can be made vegan with a slight tweak like vegan goats cheese in the salad. I can’t wait to go again.
Pros: Lots of vegan options, Lovely atmosphere, Tasty food
Cons: Quite expensive

Amazing meal 🤤 - Edit
Everything about this meal was amazing! The wine list is labelled with which ones are vegan - I got a delicious vegan prosecco. The olives and bread were a great starter. I got the tofu steak which somehow tasted very slightly of fish and the potatoes were like a crispy hash brown. The rhubarb and ginger dessert was delicious (very gingery!) Highly recommend.

Fabulous Vegan Food In A Modern Vegetarian Restaurant - Edit
Love Fellinis its my favourite vegan friendly restaurant and I have visited many times. Went for dinner tonight and had a wonderful meal. The food is well executed, cooked and presented with bags of flavour. .The menu changes regularly so if you visit often there is always something new on the menu. Vegan wines and beers are clearly marked too.
Read moreVisited again 16th November and the food was fabulous as usual. We had sweet potato & coconut soup and pear artichoke and cheese salad crostini to start. Mains were aubergine cannelloni with quinoa and romesco sauce and Cajun cauliflower steak with avocado sauce...pudding to share was apple and plum crumble. Absolutely amazing food on all fronts, creative, beautiful presentation and full of flavour.
I always visit Fellini's when in the Lakes and it would not be the same if I didn't.

A must if you're in the area - Edit
So good, we went twice in a row. Well thought out, beautifully presented vegetarian and vegan meals. We couldn't choose the first night we were there, so decided to go again the next evening to try another option - and we were not disappointed.
Read moreStaff was super friendly, but we had quite long waits between courses. Lovely atmosphere in the restaurant though
Pros: Well thought out food, Beautifully presented

Amazing imaginative best ever food would eat there every night - Edit
The food was set out on your plate like a picture . The smallest detail . Like tied up packages of vegetables. A fake edible fat round the nutloaf . An edible pansy on my pudding . The amount of ingredients . The sauces . The plethora of tastes on your tongue ; avacado sauce , nuts , apple , pomegranate etc . So fresh . So nutritious . But tasted naughty . For me it was my dream food . We went 3 nights on the run on holiday . Check their menu . We would eat there every night out if we could . I truly believe it could convert any meat eater
Read morePros: All vegetarian and nearly all vegan and gluten fre, So cheap compared to similar restaurants , Ingredients you would not believe check the menu
Cons: Nothing i would dine there every night , It is not on my doorstep , You get withdrawal symptoms
