Really good value for money. Chicken was cooked really well in the burgers which came with lots of fries. Good selection of local ales and IPAs on tap. Cool interior, small shame the tv inside is showing reals of the Caribbean rather than images of the surrounding fells or footage of the local beer being brewed.

I'm sure the food was good, but I couldn't taste it for the incredible amount of salt put on it, the fries turned out to be the saltiest I've EVER had and actually made my mouth burn, thank god I ordered a pint of larger.

Really dissapointing. My husbands pizza was badly burnt on the bottom. My lamb burger was incredibly dry and tasted like it had been cooked and reheated. I will say the sweet potato fries were excellent and my husband enjoyed the beer. Service wasnt great, waitress abrupt. I wouldn't return.

Just ok. Little things matter, I had just popped in after a hike and ordered a beer to sit outside. Finish serving one customer before you move to the next as I had to ask the next customer to move so I could grab my beer as you pay on the side. Also I’m all for tipping, but I’m not eating a meal or getting service to my table so not sure why it’s there as an option with the bar staff checking you have tipped. Just ok, I didn’t eat here so can’t comment

The place was ok. We sat outside. Ordered a staropromen and they didn't have any. Opted instead for a homebrew Helles which was very nice. We went to the bar to order and got sent away stating that it was table service only. A bit of a faff to be honest. I can understand people who want to order food having table service but why send us away from the bar when we were already there? It would have been easier just to serve us. I think this was probably adopted during COVID and kept in place. Makes more sense in Italy, not in England. The pizza looked amazing though.

Service and atmosphere was great, however we both had burgers and found that they were bland despite the sauces on them. The streaky bacon wasn’t cooked enough so was chewy and stringy making it difficult to eat. Presentation was great but the flavours just weren’t there sadly.

We were greeted warmly on arrival and seated immediately. The couple of wait staff we encountered were friendly, helpful and attentive. The menu is great too it was so hard to choose what to have! In the end it was burgers all around - I highly recommend the 'Juicy Lucifer'. The orders were all correct including customisations, food came out hot and looking great. For what you get, the value is really good too. Definitely worth a stop here if you're visiting Ambleside, highly recommend - but make sure you go hungry.

Had a good meal here yesterday. Didn’t book as was a last minute find and got a table straight away. Service was very good. The food was also good but the burger was a bit too chargrilled for my liking though and I had to leave a small bit of my burger as was basically burnt through. I also didn’t eat the bun as that was also chargrilled way too much. But I would definitely recommend overall and would happily go back again.

I wondered why they took payment before they served the food. Then I found out. Burnt and mostly inedible burger. Chips ok. Beer was called IPA but, in that modern way, definitely wasn't. I think this is more my problem than theirs. Much better places to eat in Ambleside.

We had pizza and a beer, and let me tell you, as an Italian living in the UK for 25 years this was the best pizza I have ever had in the UK. The dough was exactly as I was expecting, generous toppings and delicious flavours. They only add a 5% service charge, which at least coming from London is very little. Please add a tip as they are fast, polite and kind, and they deserve it.

The place was very busy and must have been short staffed so why keep taking walk-ins when you know you’ve got customers pre-booked?? So we didn’t stay , went to The Temperance Inn instead and were eating really great food 15 minutes later. Disappointed.

Food was good, they have some vegan & vegetarian options which is nice. They took a while to bring the food out, but it was also pretty busy when we were there so it’s understandable. What we absolutely didn’t like was how they treated our dog. We loved that they let us bring her in, thank you for that. But the waiters giving all the dogs treats without asking the owners first is just not cool. You don’t know if they have allergies for example, behavioral issues, or medical conditions where their diet has to be closely monitored. And if petting them & giving treats without permission wasn’t bad enough, the waiters would also make our dog do tricks but then still withhold the treat after she did what she was asked, resulting in her getting frustrated. It might be a fun game for your waiters, but it’s just annoying and disrespectful to the dogs as well as any owners who put a lot of effort in training their pups. Won’t be coming here again.

Amazing pizzas!! We asked in a shop where would best to get some food and the shop keeper said most pubs in Ambleside were a bit poor and that the Tap Yard was hands down the best by far. We are so glad we took his advice, the pizzas were AMAZING. Proper wood fired, proper dough with gorgeous bubbles. We travel to Italy a lot and these are as good a pizza as you can get! We were served by a lovely gentleman but also by two other women during our meal and all three of them were super friendly, super efficient and made us feel very welcome. The pizzas came quickly and are 12" so pretty big. Wonderful dough, choose any toppings you like and you'll love it for sure.

Amazing food at this place, but be prepared for slow staff service, we tried going up to the bar for drinks, and was told it was table service, we then waited 10 minutes for someone to come over, I could if ordered my drink at the bar and drank it in that time. They missed off one drink off our order, that was then another few minutes for the missing drink to arrive. Also one missing dessert from our table, took 10 minutes for the missing dessert to arrive.

Wanted to grab a quick local drink on our way home after dinner, so popped in here. Were told by a waitress that it was table service only (which we thought was odd because there was no drink menu that we saw and numbers on the tables, which generally indidicates self-service). We then went outside and sat down but were told to move as the tables out there didn't belong to the Tap, but to the pub next door. When asked where we should sit if we just wanted a couple of quick drinks, the Waitress told us "Honestly, you should just go home" - so we left, to her dismay, and went somewhere nicer. Incredibly rude staff and have never been treated so dismissively by a waitress. The place is a tap, so doesn't need table service! Generally got the impression that if you didn't order food/were a source of tips, they didn't want to know about you. No wonder the place was mostly empty. Would not recommend.

Ambleside Tap Yard is such a great place. We loved having this restaurant 5 minutes walk from our holiday cottage and visited twice while there for four nights. The first time I had booked a table which was inside. It was busy and with all the outside seating too, we were happy to wait for a while. The drinks were great and my husband loved the choice of craft beers on offer. The food was delicious, we enjoyed pizzas and a burger then gorgeous warm waffles with fruit, brownie and icrecream as well as icecream sundaes. A really nice evening all round. I tried to book again for a couple of night's later but there wasn't availability, so we walked down anyway, prepared to either wait or go elsewhere. The inside was fully booked but we could find a table outside. It was a warm evening so we were happy to sit outside. Service was excellent even though it was very busy and the food arrived quite quickly. Delicious again . The staff work really hard and are friendly and polite. We'd definitely go back.

Visited a couple of times during our stay in Ambleside. Had been previously & the pizza’s were excellent. This time they were good, but no where near as good as last year’s visit. However, that wasn’t my main problem. As I like to see what beer is available. I only ordered food at the table. Drinks were bought at the bar. It wasn’t until I was home I noticed that identical rounds showed as different amounts on my statement. So I did a bit of tallying up. On one occasion I just bought a single pint of tank beer at £5.80, shown as £6.30! I also declined the 5% tip that on the machine. I have contacted Tap Yard, & I received a call to say they were looking it to this for me. 30 days on & not heard anything. I have now asked Trading Standards to see what is going on. Might only be small amount, but across the board it adds up.. Nice place, good food & drink. But definitely check your bill.

We have visited this place quite a few times while in the lake district. Great local selection of ales, the pizzas are always tasty and some decent funky chips however you like em! Always a nice atmosphere in the place inside or out, dog friendly which is why we have gone back a number of times. Great spot to unwind for a bit after your lakes activities, or simply for a nice drink. We've been in both Easter time and xmas/new yr, and just as good to sit inside or outside on the benches wrapped up warm! I think some benches had heaters too. Definitely give it a try, welcoming for families, couples, etc a nice mix, but Ambleside is a pretty nice place to be regardless.....! Like plenty of popular places, you may have to wait in the entrance etc to grab a seat, but they have enough seating for people to rotate etc. It would have to be a mighty busy one to not get seated in decent time, and fed n watered.

Came here a few years ago and it was fine, this time brought us wrong pizza so we had to send it back, then an extremely rude staff came to us and said we didn’t order any pizza, we explained that another staff just brought us a wrong pizza so we must have ordered something, the staff just insisted that we didn’t order it and didn’t even consider the possibility that she forgot to take the order and didn’t even say sorry, I decided here’s no point arguing so just asked if we could order it now , she was very reluctant and said there’s going to be a long wait. No apologies whatsoever. We remained polite and said thank you once she added the pizza to the order but no response. Other staff members were nice but this particular one just made our experience terrible. Will never come again

Well what a turn around the place has had Could not book, so turned up as a walk in, We were seated immediately even though the place was very busy. Didn't have to wait long to be served. Drinks and food arrived correctly and promptly with a friendly smile. We received not one but two check backs. The Tap Yard has turned around greatly, after tonight's service we shall be back. Well done to all the staff on a very busy Saturday Night you are doing a marvelous job. P S The Desserts are also vastly improved with quantity & quality.

The casual appearance of the Tap Yard premises belies the polite and very efficient service missing in some higher end Ambleside restaurants. It does what it does very well.

Our drinks and food did not take long to arrive. However, our food was terrible. We all ordered the Korean burger and all of them were rather well done (burnt) the chicken was chewy, and we did not have the BBQ sauce and the Kimchi slaw as advertised. We were all so disappointed and we paid for the 5% service charge at ordering. The food we got served was not deserving of a tip. I am sad to have to write a negative review.

Nice place for a relaxed bite to eat.👍 The food is essentially just Pizza and Burgers, but don't let that put you off, it is nice food. They have a selection of 'local' draught beers 😎 (they only had 3 of the possible 6 when we visited 🫤). Service is quick for the food, but can be a bit hit-n-miss for Drinks👎 Sometimes you have to remind staff of drinks Orders, or they would miss drinks from Orders 🫤 Still worth a visit, (and the Pizzas are very nice 🙂)

Great beers but let down by having 1 server on the bar on a very busy Saturday evening. Even more strange is that once you do get served, you have to then queue a second time at the side of the bar to pay.

Excellent pub in the heart of Ambleside. Staff are always really friendly. They have an excellent choice of local beers/lagers and good drink choice over all. They do great food, the pizzas are delicious 😋 Has outside seating as well.

Excellent service, room was quirky, however, clean and well presented. The food was delicious, particularly the Hake and scallop tagliatelle with a creamy lobster glace sauce. Great value for money. We will be back.
