Terrazzo

Kendal is well known as the gateway to Windermere and the beautiful Lake District. What is yet to be as well known is that the southern edge of Kendal Town Centre is also a gateway to the flavours of the Mediterranean. The reason for this is Terrazzo, a fabulous restaurant with – unsurprisingly – a fabulous outdoor terrace seating area, started by a group of catering professionals who previously supplied delicious food for some of Northern England’s finest corporate events and highest profile weddings. Those of us without invites to such events couldn’t be happier that Terrazzo now has a permanent home in K Village on Lound Road, meaning their first-rate Mediterranean fare is on offer any time you need, breakfast, lunch or dinner. The emphasis at Terrazzo is on communal, sociable, shared dining, so it’s great for get-togethers and large groups, though even for smaller parties it’s always best to book ahead just in case.
