The story
The Apple Pie Café in Ambleside runs a bakery out front and a café in the back, creating a continuous flow of fresh food. Mornings bring full-English breakfasts, while midday turns to sandwiches and hot pies. The kitchen prepares a distinctive chicken, leek, and bacon pie, plus sausage rolls for lighter bites.
Tea pairs naturally with cake selections at this Ambleside café, featuring the distinctly regional Lakeland gingerbread. The kitchen proves its namesake skill through the signature apple pie, a centerpiece of the sweet offerings. Regulars appreciate the combination of strong brews and generous slices.
The dining area feels like a warm jumble of spaces designed for comfort rather than formality. Service matches this relaxed atmosphere, keeping guests happy whether they arrive alone or with a family. Those planning an overnight visit can book rooms in the upstairs loft or utilize a partner bed and breakfast located close by.
