Great staff. Great banter.
Came in for a browse at Ambleside. Served by a blonde woman and a brunette man both with glasses. We had a great banter at the tills over gift cards and your wealth of choices ;) ended up going for the birthday one after some encouragement. They were great and loved how relaxed it felt.

Emma was so so amazing. She helped us with getting clothes, giving advice on colours and clearly had knowledge of the product. She is the reason I would certainly shop with fat face Ambleside again over other locations.

I have just had a great experience in your store in Ambleside. I believe it was the manager who helped me find the correct sizes and provided shoes and sandals to try on with the outfits. She was very supportive and complimentary. I bought 4 items for the spring, lovely range of colours! Thank you!

Couldn’t be more helpful
I recently purchased a pair of cargo pants from Fat Face Ambleside, and I couldn't be happier with my experience. The pants are not only comfortable but also stylish, blending functionality with a great look. The assistants Emma and Ann were incredibly friendly, always wearing smiles and going out of their way to assist me. I highly recommend visiting Fat Face Ambleside for both their quality products and exceptional customer service.
