Ambulo Café is part of the Weston Park Museum building. It's a light and airy space inside, with some outdoor seating outside, too. There's a selection of hot and cold drinks, and light bites (sandwiches, and hot food). Quite pricy.

Great café, attached to Weston Park Museum. Fantastic selection of cakes, sandwiches, pastries and hot/cold drinks. Service friendly and we were advised that our food and drinks would be brought to the table, as we'd ordered a bacon and brie Ciabatta which needed to be warmed. Food arrived quickly and was delicious and good value. Will definitely return again soon.

So in terms of convenience, it's quite good. Mostly come in for hot drinks which are market price and decent. It gets additional points for not being Starbucks which is across the road. Point knocked off for the glaring spelling error which I have pointed out both in person and by email and nothing has been done. It's small but it consistently has my wee at a low boil whenever I see the menu.

Very pleasant cafe inside Weston Park Museum. Loving the interior, beautiful and lots of natural light. The staff are nice and lovely, meals are delicious and sort of cheaper than other cafes, I reckon

First time around the area and museum, just called in for some snacks. Had a really nice sausage roll and drink. Nice light cafe with lots of space. Service was great and everything was nice and clean.
