Nestled on the banks of a beautiful lake, Ambience Cafe lives up to its name, exuding a peaceful, easygoing vibe. More than just a cafe, it's an experience for the senses. The wrap-around porch offers front-row seats to ducks and swans gliding across the water, a serene backdrop for sipping coffee and indulging in the cafe's scrumptious homemade treats. Families gather at picnic tables shaded by oak trees, while kids laugh and play on the nearby playground and mini train track.
The friendly staff enhance the chill atmosphere, welcoming customers like old friends. On busy days when every table is taken by chatting locals, dog walkers, and tourists alike, the sprawling indoor and outdoor seating still manages to feel uncrowded.
With the lake views, exciting attractions for kids, and welcoming service, Ambience Cafe is a wonderful place to relax over brunch or lunch. The cozy, scenic spot tops my list for grabbing a bite in an idyllic setting that truly lives up to its name.
Came here for the first time on Friday, and I will definitely be going again. Not only is the food delicious and the staff friendly, but the best part is the wrap around porch that sits right on a big lake with ducks and swans and is so tranquil and peaceful. I can definitely see why they called it ambiance. They are also right next to a children's playground and a miniature railway track. Love it.
Fantastic Cafe. Gr8 quality food, but much cheaper than the market cafe or other cafes in centre of St. Neots. Cappuccino is even included with Breakfast. They have their own chickens as well. Really nice people, and it’s busy too, which is always a good sign, so if you have to wait 20mins, it’s well worth the wait. They are pretty quick tho.. Car park is big right next to really nice park and the River, also public toilets in car park. Lots of seating inside and out too. Tasty food, great coffee, great prices, big menu choices, and licensed too. It’s Also Biker and pet friendly. Great people. What more could u want. Very highly recommended. Also free Disabled parking in car park, Bonus!
First English breakfast in Cambridge - England, the service is good, staff very friendly. The portion is nice for me, only the taste is a little bit salty. The atmosphere is superb
We had a lovely experience here. the staff helped with my grandad who is in a wheelchair. The food was lovely and the staff incredibly helpful and attentive. I would definitely recommend.
This Cafe is set right on the car park by the river.
Great service, great food and especially great ice cream 🍦
Well worth a visit
Ambience: great little cafe by the riverside with hard working friendly young staff. Covid regulations adhered to, with a very high standard of hygiene, which staff took time to carry out. Seating outside, some of which overlooks the river and some indoors Pricing is very good and the food excellent with very generous portions. This is a place l would go to again as it is so friendly and an enjoyable experience. Well done staff for taking so much care in your establishment. Plenty of parking, especially for disabled and charges are modest.
Lovely cafe on a gorgeous pond in the Park. Had coffee and cake sitting outside undercover (it was raining hard). Will definitely come back when I visit St Neots again!
Really nice setting alongside the River Great Ouse. Excellent service. My bacon baguette was perfect for my liking. My wife had a prawn sandwich, which had a good amount of filling. Nice place to chill out.
Love this place, food excellent and reasonably priced. Restaurant always spotlessly clean. Staff are always friendly and eager to oblige. It's in a beautiful park, we live 20miles away but often just go out for a drive to enjoy a walk and visit the Ambience cafe.
The food was really lovely! And there's live music (old fashioned bands) on a Sunday afternoon in the surrounding park. Veggie breakfast was great
A great cafe in a super location. Friendly and helpful staff. Very pleasant outdoor seating overlooking the park. Easy access. Good value. We really like it.
Best all day breakfasts around!
All the staff are amazing with my 10 month old.
Couldn't recommend more highly 👌🏻
This place is so lovely, the manager was so understanding even though we turned up 10 minutes before closing and the food is so good. Great atmosphere and lovely surroundings
We visited on 22nd May and the Park was heaving, many people enjoying the weather and the Miniature Railway.
There were ques at the café and at the ice cream parlour. No surprises there. We had an ice cream as the wait for food was going to be around 45 minutes, too long to wait with hungry kids.
We have used the café before and it is well worth eating there.
This cafe has been my local cafe for many years, the staff are very kind. The newly built decking area outside is a very nice addition especially coming into the summer months. My breakfast was delicious and reasonably priced. Would highly recommend.
Staff are amazing and go over and above to provide great service with a smile. So helpful and would recommend going . Chocolate cake and coffee with a friend was amazing. Not rushed and staff were very attentive. Great place to meet and scenery and walks in the area are very pretty.
