This small, fiercely independent Ambleside restaurant builds ingredient-led tasting menus in a cold-climate, foraging-minded style, warm in the room and never theatrical. A meal caps a day in the central fells nicely, whether you have walked up to the cascade of Stock Ghyll Force behind the town or out to Rydal Falls.
