Amazing upper class vegan restaurant

We saw the menu and knew that it’s gonna be a more special evening because it’s just more expensive. But we saw the comments and wanted to spoil ourselves. We dressed a little bit better and went to a really nice evening. The interior, the service and the food is definitely more exclusive than you would expect. It was absolutely delicious. We had the mashed carrots wraps and the coliflower steak, both great. First we thought that just a main dish is not enough but afterwards we were nicely sated, not hungry and not totally overeaten. The wine offer is huge! We definitely recommend that place😄

Delicious & flavoursome

Loved the location, below an independent cinema. Was not expecting it to be so fancy inside but it was a nice surprise as we have been living in our van for the past week. Service was top notch, warm welcome on arrival and just generally lovely waiters. The food was insane, probably the nicest veggie restaurant food I’ve had in a while, you can tell they have put thought into each dish and everything was clearly cooked by order & fresh! 10/10. Toilets were also really nice too(I do love a toilet that has hand cream in there) there were about 6 other couples/friends dining too who seemed to love to the food too. Overall a fab experience! Would dine here again next time in the Lakes! X

Pros: Delicious food , Nice toilets , Great service

Delicious

Delicious fine dining food as always. I had the beetroot soup and aubergine cannelloni.
A fully vegetarian menu, with just over 50% of the menu vegan.

Also a good selection of vegan wines clearly marked on the menu

Pros: Vegan wines

Good but definitely not brilliant

Visited here for dinner whilst in Lake District, personally I think it’s over rated. The starters were good not brilliant, the mains were honestly bland and not what the menu says.

My dish was the Moroccan spiced filo pasty, creamy potatoes with spring onion with pomegranate and romesco sauce, just to confirm I had dry mash potatoes no cream what so ever neither any spring onions and about 5 pomegranates pieces.
The desserts were very good (I had the chocolate avocado mousse) and I would say the presentation was good on some of the dishes.

Fancy food at reasonable prices

Despite wondering if the restaurant was still open due to the slightly run down exterior, my wife and I had a wonderful meal here recently on our honeymoon in the lakes.

The food was delicious, and very welcome considering we were finding good vegan dinner options quite challenging to come by in Ambleside. Whilst I think the starters could use a bit more variation (most were salad dishes from my recollection), it didn't stop them being very tasty, and the main courses and desserts were fantastic - very high quality food at a very reasonable price.

The wine list was also excellent and we loved that vegan and vegetarian wines were marked out, something that is quite hard to come by in our experience.

We had a lovely time and would definitely come back!

Pros: High quality fine dining style food, Very reasonable prices, Vegan wine list

Cons: A few too many salad starters

Wonderful flavours and attentive staff

On approaching from the south end of Ambleside I did wonder if it was still open. It looks a bit run down from one side. But upon entering everything is great. Nice clean rest rooms and well spaced out tables. I did however manage to catch one of their table cloths as I sat and pull over the fresh flowers in their vase. The staff were very quick to respond and sorted it with little fuss. The food was most excellent I had a celeriac and red pepper soup with three types of bread. The moussaka was one of the tastiest moussaka I have had accompanied with potatoes. I did order a side of sweet potatoes as I do eat a lot but couldn’t finish as I needed to leave room for dessert. Which was a avocado chocolate mousse. Again all very pleasant. Wide range of drinks available. A very good expertise all around.

Pros: Very well made fine food, Pleasant ambience, Attentive staff

Cons: Possibly on the dear side

A must for every visit to the The Lakes

Every mouthful was densely packed with just really good flavour!
A vegetarian place, but majority of options were vegan or could be veganised.
A classy venue - having just chanced our luck after a hike, we felt underdressed!
The prices were reasonable but the whole experience meant it was easily worthy of a special occasion.

Pros: Everything!

Cons: Struggled to get through on phone to book.

Dinner and a show.

Fellini’s is a wonderful experience for any veggie/vegan visiting the Lake District. The service is attentive, the food came out fast and the staff are vigilant about adhering to public health guidelines (every other table is blocked out). The chefs are very experienced as the presentation of the food was considered, with aspects of fine dining including the decorative plating.
Fellini’s feels like an Ambleside institution, a must visit for any vegan visiting. Plus, the dinner and cinema deal is great value for money.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Healthy , Good value

Mediterranean take on Vegan Dining

Service was great, vegan choices many and delicious food. I had the toasted ciabata to start and the nut roast for main. The nut roast was presented like a pork loin using pastry as the "fat" which was clever.

Pros: Service with a smile, lots of options, Vegan wine

Cons: Decor similar to a Chinese restaurant in West End.

Not to miss in Ambleside

We had an absolutely lovely evening at Fellini’s, despite the COVID-19 measures and regulations. The staff really made us feel welcome and appreciated, and they did everything to keep the highest hygiene and safety standards. And that’s not even mentioning the food...! Everything we had was delicious, and there was so much to choose from, also for strict vegans. Highly recommended! I would definitely go back.

Pros: Delicious food, beautifully arranged , Friendly, welcoming staff, Clean and safe (COVID-19)

Absolutely FANTASTIC

It's not entirely vegan (but pretty much) the menu is 99% vegan and first time 'ever' that from starter to dessert I had enjoyed every last bit. The soup was incredible (courgette and rosemary) and the rest as well, I am just so impressed I can't say better than that haha. Which I could go back but it's for a proper night out, so count about £40 a head if you want a full on menu.

Pros: Every dish are delicious, Ambiance is really cosy and chic, Service is more than impeccable

Cons: None

Wonderful restaurant

We ate here last weekend and it was just perfect. One of my favourite meals we have eaten out. Every course was delicious - especially the zucchini cannelloni - and the service was great. The staff all seemed to understand our needs as vegans, which was nice too. Fantastic value for money given the quality of food and service offered.
