Dodds Restaurant - Ambleside - Photo album

This is a restaurant that does not accept reservations. The menu is quite simple. We ordered the soup of the day, Fritto Misto, and Spaghetti Bolognese as appetizers. The Fritto Misto was very fresh, and the Spaghetti Bolognese was unexpectedly delicious. For the main course, we ordered chili pizza,
Had the mushroom carbonara with truffle oil. It was absolutely fantastic! The espresso was served with a piece of homemade fudge which was the best fudge I’d had in a while! Lovely staff and warm atmosphere!
Whilst it's frustrating the restaurant does not accept reservations, we just dined slighter earlier than we normally would. We could not fault the service, extremely fast and very accommodating to dietary requirements (off menu requests). Would highly recommend and would definitely return.
It’s a bliss that the restaurant is walk-in only — a fair game for wanderers in the busy summer season. We were able to register our phone number and waited in the parking lot nearby :P Food is mostly good, rounded to almost 5 because of the friendly service. Lamb Ragu gnocchi combines two of my fa
One the the best Italian restaurants in Ambleside, honestly the others are overrated, over priced and have ridiculous waiting times. This restaurant is a much visit if you're looking for the most tasty Italian food. The service was impeccable, extremely fast and the staff were cheerful and able to m
Delicious food (Our waiter recommended the seafood spaghetti and it did not disappoint!), lovely staff and very quick service
I had the pork belly confit, it was delicious. The service was excellent, too. We had to wait 15 minutes, but we had a drink at the bar and it was worth the wait.
Family visited on 23rd May 2023 for dinner. We were sat quickly and attended to by very friendly staff. All good freshly prepared, authentic and very tasty. Highly recommended.
Really great food, so easy to find. Staff are friendly and happy to change things with your food order.
You can't book a table here, but although it was busy we got a table. The food arrived very quickly after ordering. It was really tasty. I had the mushroom pizza with truffle oil which was delicious. My husband had a toastie that came with freshly made pesto that he absolutely raved about. Well wort
Absolutely fantastic food, couldn't recommend highly enough. Slightly spoiled by stroppy waitress who 'greeted' at door but food more than made up for her attitude. High chairs all had faulty restraints so couldn't use for baby
Stand out were the pizza ingredients, you could taste they were supreme quality. No stinging out on the portion sizes either, I asked for chicken to be added as a topping and it was covered in thick juice chicken breast. Superb. Also if I'm being critical not enough tomato base. The lobster ravioli
That’s a gem in Lake District. Great food, friendly service, amazing seafood pasta.
Popped by this walk-in-only restaurant and was delighted with my decision. My wife loved her lasagne and I went for something I'd not usually try, lobster ravioli (with mussels and pulled pork stuffed black pudding). Quick service, superb food and fairly priced (the pizzas all looked great too)
Visited on a very busy Bank Holiday. No tables do they took our number and called when was available which was great as everywhere else was just turning people away. Food and drinks served very quickly, food was delicious and reasonably priced. Bill.brpught to us quickly once we asked for it and fri
Mushroom Carbonara to die for! Daughter had fried chicken and pink coleslaw sandwich, with salad and crisps - she cleaned the plate! Side order of parmesan onion rings also excellent. Lovely!!
Found ourselves buffeted in here after a particularly long wet walk. Atmosphere was very inviting and cosy and the staff were super friendly. The food was absolutely delicious and the portion sizes generous. Very happy to have found this place and if it wasn't our last day in the lake District we wo
We didn’t eat in the restaurant but we had takeaway pizza three times. Twice we popped in and ordered and the food was ready before we could finish our drinks. Another time we used their app. All worked fine. Really friendly staff.
