We visited the Lakeland Motor Museum on our way home from a holiday in Ravenglass. Before we left the museum grounds we headed into Cafe Ambio and we were so glad we did! The service was friendly and the cafe was warm and welcoming. There is plenty of seating available and accessible toilets. The view where we were sitting was beautiful and very peaceful. I had the soup of the day which was vegetable, it came with a thick slice of soft white bread and two butter packs. It was £7.50.

If you have a day with nothing to do and nowhere to go, just standing on the bridge contemplating the lovely surroundings whilst the water marches relentlessly onward is a rare delight. Inside the cafe the staff are all very friendly including with out excitable Springer Spaniel Max who got lots of attention :) The food and service was top notch, after visiting a nearby restaurant a few days before and having a bad experience this was the polar opposite. Everyone loved the food and we left stuffed and very happy, the triple fried chips I...
