The concentration of food venues and their ratings suggest Ferndale draws people in to eat and drink rather than to stay. If you are visiting, you would need accommodation elsewhere, but the quality of places to eat here makes it worth the trip for a meal or an afternoon out. The range spans tearooms and cafés to fish and chips and ice cream, indicating the sort of independent businesses that tend to cluster in a working town centre rather than a tourist resort.
