Top 15 Gluten-Free Dinner Spots to Delight in Ambleside

Great night at lucy's on a plate. The menus are printed daily with a lovely daily notice on the front which i thought was a lovely touch. The food was delicious, great portion sizes and there were lots of gluten free options for my boyfriend. The steak was cooked great and was served with a heaping of garlic butter and peppercorn sauce (the garlic butter is insane) My only downside of the food was the chicken was slightly overcooked but the flavours of the dish and other components were great so balanced it out Staff were on the whole good, welcoming. Knocked a star off because the relaxed environment meant that staff often were talking a lot to the guests and it took a while to get our orders in.

It’s always tricky eating out as a coeliac (gluten allergy), however I really appreciated the effort that the staff went to this evening to rectify a mistake with my order of gluten free food. A whole new meal was cooked and they provided a drink on the house. The food and atmosphere were both great. Thanks team!

Fantastic food and service. Brilliant gluten-free alternatives of every pasta dish and pizza. Our pizza and pasta dishes were excellent, and the service was efficient and friendly! Recommended!

The food was absolutely stunning! The presentation was top-notch. 👌 Delicious gluten-free options, as they usually tend to be tasteless. I will definitely come back and bring friends and family because even the meat-eater loved it too! The flavor and meal options were superb!

We came here on our first nights stay in Ambleside, and it turned out to be our favourite restaurant of the week! The food was excellent, and the cocktails are also very good, particularly the margaritas. They were very helpful with accommodating my gluten intolerance with a lot of gluten free options to chose from, and also dog friendly! Highly recommend.

Brilliant cafe to visit if you're ever in Grasmere! Stumbled across Harley's and wasn't sure what to expect but really pleased we did! Staff were extremely helpful, and there was a great selection of tea/coffee, beers/wines/spirits, hot food and cake. They had the best selection of Gluten free cakes and puddings! The warmed up GF apple pie and ice-cream is excellent! Milkshakes looked great too! They're dog friendly, so make sure to pop in if you're passing!

The food here is incredible, extremely welcoming atmosphere. Come in for a chat with the owner and find out where your food comes from :) (p.s if you’re GF or coeliac you’re gonna want to come visit, their entire menu is GF)

What a lovely find! Stumbled across this place looking for a place to eat on saturday night and the waiter did his best to get us in. The staff were wonderful with our allergens. The menu is helpfully listed but the staff took extra care to make sure the food we ate was safe for gluten, nuts and prawns! The food was absolutely incredible too! I had a wonderful meal with lots of delicious thai flavours. My favourite dish has to be the chicken phad seyu - that was absolutely delicious.

Amazing food...catered for two gluten free customers... best GF pasta! Will definitely return!

Staff and food very good. My wife is Coeliac and the staff were on the ball in understanding and knowledgeable about gluten free.

We recently had a really lovely anniversary meal here. The food and service were outstanding and the team were able to make a gluten free vegetarian meal for my wife and that didn't seem to a problem at all. It was such a great evening. Thanks.

Absolutely brilliant in here. We visit Ambleside regularly and have always wandered past saying we need to go in, so a couple of weeks ago on our most recent visit we went in for a couple of drinks earlier in the day then for food later on. It’s Dog Friendly which is great for us, had plenty of Gluten Free options which we also require and a high chair available for our little boy. There’s a great selection on draft including plenty of good ales along with some from the Salt Brewery which is fantastic. The food was top notch, we had some fantastic loaded burgers and chips but the pizzas which were being brought out looked delightful and think next time we return I’ll be trying one of these. Lovely atmosphere, plenty of room, great ale and class food, 10/10 for this place. It’s located right next to Rydal Road Car Park so nice and convenient for all.

Pleasantly surprised when we found this place when passing, the food was great and they also catered for my gluten free diet. A bonus to us was the fact that they were dog friendly (limited tables) which enabled us to enjoy the experience without having to get it in a takeaway. Highly recommend

The Old Stamp House certainly deserves being voted number One. The whole experience did not dissapoint from start to finish.The service ,wine choice, experienced staff, the food was just incredible. I am gluten free with a pork allergy which i informed at the time of booking and the menu was tweeked for me for which I was very grateful . We had the lunchtime tasting menu .
