"Visited on a Sunday at 11am, it wasn't particularly busy. Sign on the door told us to wait to be seated. Wait staff at the back of the cafe told us to sit anywhere. They brought menus quickly, but had to be waived over (after we'd waited 10 mins) to take our order. The staff didn't seem particularly busy, just slow and inattentive. The food came 10 mins later, this was before our drinks, which I had to prompt them for. The coffee and fresh orange juice was nice. We each had a sausage butty, I chose veggie, which turned out to be mashed potato with carrots and sweetcorn in bread casing, sort of like a fish finger. I was beyond disappointed, I'd expected a quorn style sausage or something made of some sort of protein. We waited again and no wait staff ever came back to the table to clear plates or offer the bill, so eventually I went up to the counter to pay. Overall terrible service and disappointing food. I wish we'd gone somewhere else."

Just had a really lovely American breakfast x2 in Stiles. The atmosphere and service was very plesent. The staff member serving us was excellent and very attentive to our two dogs. Even bringing them treats.

Called in for a snack lunch and were completely taken back with the quality of the food and the service that we received. The young girl that served us couldn't have been more helpful if she tried. Well done to all concerned.

We hadn't realised Stiles was dog friendly until we popped in and checked. It always gave of more of a kids' cafe vibe too but we had some lovely soup and bread here recently interesting choice of soups and lovely bread with it.

Food and drinks are good but the staff hygiene leaves little to be desired. One member in particular who didn’t really seem like she wanted to be working there, had a scruffy sweatshirt with frayed cuffs that were dangling in our drinks. She didn’t seem to want to serve either.

Terrible, worst tearoom ever, waited 15 minutes for or order to be taken, when the girl brought it she couldn’t tell us what was what, her answer was they are both the same,which they were not, never smiled once, also when she our glasses were brought to the table her fingers were inside them

This little GEM of a place is AMBLESIDE is a must, the staff are welcoming and friendly and the place has a nice warm homely feel. Party of 6 stopped for coffee and cake and we were not disappointed, the coffees especially the Latte's are lovely and well the cakes are a definite must if you visit. The Carrot Cake and Lemon Drizzle Cake are a must, never tasted such amazingly tasty and moreish cakes, 4 days of visiting the lakes this place for me was the best by far for coffee and cake, thank you for making us all feel welcome and especially fuelling us with coffee and cake for our walks.
