Zeffirellis

An all-vegetarian Italian restaurant opened in 1980 in a building that once housed an old cinema. The pizza and pasta with the "dinner and a movie" package is a signature of Ambleside.

Located on Compston Road in Ambleside, this venue was converted from a former town cinema. It combines a restaurant, terrace café, jazz bar, and independent cinema, and opened in 1980. The menu is entirely vegetarian Italian, focused on pizza and pasta, and many dishes can be made vegan. The "dinner and a movie" package is very popular and should be booked in advance. Food is served from 10:00 every day. Sister restaurant Fellinis is also in town. Reviews are generally positive, although some diners feel it is only fair value for money.
