Wonderful food, great for families with children, this place has a real buzz. We liked it so much we went back for lunch the next day! It also has an independent cinema so it's great for a rainy day with children. Definitely recommended.

Have been coming here since the 80s what's happened? The maitre d' front desk was so unfriendly, honestly, we should have left, but still thought the food would be worth it. Not so, the chiili had absolutely no spices whatsoever, totally bland. Wanted to complain at the time, but the waiter was so quick I didn't get a chance. Also on our way out the front desk maitre'd was having a rather loud argument with diners about a voucher. Has this place changed hands?

I'll visit whenever I'm in the area - often taking in a movie on the meal deal - and have never been disappointed. This time went with a family group and had a great evening. Food, as ever, was super, and atmosphere great. And looked after wonderfully by Emilia and her team.

Staying in Ambleside and wanted a cosy restaurant with a table for one and a book. Zeffirellis is lovely, quiet, calm and as a vegetarian restaurant has some great options. Service was excellent, a good range of local ales and gins, and a lovely menu. Felt welcome and safe as a solo traveller.

Visited as a vegan couple. For a fully vegetarian restaurant I feel they could do better with the range of options, including faux meats and a larger variety of non-dairy cheeses. The service was also a little slow. Wasn’t amazing but did the job of a nice veggie dinner.

We had heard good things about this restaurant, only to arrive and be served potentially the worst pizza that I have ever had. For an Italian restaurant to serve pizza that has a thick doughy base, and is so greasy is innate, and was quite frankly shocked. We would have brought this up with the waiters/ staff, however I can’t remember us being checked on once - only when we finally flagged someone down to ask for more drinks. The only thing that stops this being one stars, is the initial service when being seated, which was really really good - and helpful, however it didn’t continue till the end, as we asked for directions to one of the movie screens (we had the deal), and was met with “I am not a box office”, which I don’t think was needed. Other members of the group enjoyed their food, and this may have been a one off experience, but I would personally not go back.

Nice room, efficient and friendly staff, good wine, excellent pasta - but the pizza! The topping was good but the base was weird. Not bread, but some sort of biscuit. Worst pizza I've had this century, and that includes from supermarkets. I was hungry so I ate it, but if you're expecting good pizza because it's an Italian restaurant you'll be very disappointed!

Beautifully decorated restaurant with superb vegetarian food, the spaghetti bolognaise was excellent and one of the best I’ve ever had (veggie for 30+ yrs, the spinach and ricotta ravioli (had by the other half) was lush. Creamy mushroom starter just yum, could not fault , usually hate when a restaurant automatically adds on a service charge but in this case was more than happy. Just go, you’ll love it.

I am vegan and my partner is vegetarian and this is hands down the best restaurant I have ever! been too. We did not plan to go here and just looked for vegan options and it came up. It is such a romantic and beautiful restaurant. We were so surprised. There was no meat on the menu at all and there was sooooo many options! The staff were incredible and very friendly and accommodating. The food was so good that I had to take some home just so I could try more things! I was blown away with how good the ginger and pear sticky toffee pudding vegan style was. I could have eaten those until I was sick. We were so impressed that even though we are only here for a few days we want to eat there every night! 11/10 ⭐️

We have eaten at this restaurant many many times, the food is always excellent it has a lovely atmosphere and the staff are always friendly and helpful. Usually apart from extensive menu there are a couple of specials, Saturday night one of the specials was crushed carrots with harissa and pistachio phyllo wrap with boulangere potatoes, it was absolutely delicious one of the best meals I have ever had. The chefs here are so imaginative.

We arrived at Zeffirelli's having only arrived in Ambleside a couple of hours earlier in what felt like a monsoon. So we were a tad grumpy when we entered the restaurant. Within 5 minutes the grumpiness had gone and we felt relaxed and cossetted. The staff are all really friendly and give great service. What a delight to find such fabulous choice of vegetarian food. The starters and mains were absolutely fantastic and it has restored our faith in dining out. This restaurant is meant to be the more casual of the two sister restaurants but it felt very lush. We will definitely be back when we are next in Ambleside, thanks for such a wonderful evening!

Very much enjoyed our meal here! The mezze starter was huge and we were pretty full after that but we persevered and thoroughly enjoyed our pizzas. Be aware that they are a flat base but the toppings were delicious - especially the Mexican one I had. Mine beat me, but they willingly gave me my leftover slices in a box which were the perfect mid-walking lunch the next day. We didn't sample any wine but each had a negroni to accompany our meal which were spot on. Good service and a nice atmosphere too.

A wonderful place boasting Cinemas, jazz club, bars, restaurants and outside dining area. Relaxing in the upstairs bar was a treat.

Beautiful meal in a very nice, atmospheric restaurant, followed by a night at the cinema- excellent. A real treat to find a restaurant committed to such excellent vegetarian food.

Cracking restaurant with friendly attentive staff. The macaroni cheese and garlic mushroom starters were superb, although more like mini meals than starters. The mushroom ravioli main was up there with the best pasta we’ve eaten. Unfortunately the pizza was at the opposite end of the...

Loved it, the food and wine was amazing. I had the Muscles Marinara to start and it was really good. Hopefully I will be returning many times. Thank you for a lovely evening.

We chose the Pub from our Holiday Home visitors book in nearby Crook. An excellent choice we made, a warm welcome from the staff, in particular the lovely young waitress with a slight Liverpudlian accent and a Reds fan, she showed great skill in dealing with her customers. Very tasty food in a warm and pleasant atmosphere.
