I use this cafe most Thursdays for a coffee to await an appointment elsewhere. The coffee is excellent and the staff very friendly. It is clean and tidy. I notice many regular customers returning frequently which tells me they too are happy with the standard of coffee and other offerings.

There was only one poor girl serving everyone but she did a good job. The roll we had was tasteless with hardly any filling, no butter or sauce/mayonnaise but the bread was good. No salt and pepper available. Black coffee and cappuccino was weak.

We went up to counter, in Derbion, 2 men ignored us then went into back room, I said if they don't want our custom let's leave. Glad we left for Costa coffee opposite- they had great service, comfy seats, good coffee & food! Never visiting BBS again. Should be BAS for Bl..dy Awful Service!

Waited for 5-10 mins while the girl behind the counter finished cleaning. Never once acknowledged me. Then proceeded to serve me without washing her hands after using spray detergents on the surfaces. 2 more customers came in and she started serving them while my drinks were on the side going cold. When I eventually got my order and sat down my cappuccino was more like warm milk than coffee of which I left. Really not the best place I've been to and doubt will bother going back either.

Lovely tea, coffee and toasties, BUT, can anyone explain why none of the staff clearing tables were wearing masks? Customers are told to keep your mask on until you've sat down, yet the three members of staff were in and out of the kitchen and wiping tables with no masks at all. A little strange in these crazy times.

We were desperate for a good cup of tea, tried BB's for the first time (5pm, Friday 22nd August). Service was excellent, the lady who served us was very polite and cheerful. We ordered fruit scones and tea, both were excellent. It was a very relaxing break.

We visit here frequently for coffee, warm food and of course the muffins. Staff are friendly, polite and very helpful. My son is in a wheelchair and the staff cant do enough to help and support. The food is fresh and tasty, as is the coffee. Highly recommended.

An oasis amid the bustle of Christmas shoppers. We were ready for a drink and a sit down, we'd passed a few places and then this looked OK. The drinks were good and the Christmas muffin was really enjoyable. Service was good and friendly too.

As i have a toddler i like to go somewhere which is child friendly, not too noisy & busy and with plenty of room for a pushchair. This place has it all. Meets my requirements, the drinks are nice, the muffins are AMAZING and all for a good price. Me and my husband have decided this is our family cafe now and our challenge is to try something different each time. Cant wait to come again

Called here when doing a bit of shopping and just wanted a quick sandwich. My friend was going to have the soup but we were told we'd have to wait while they 'warmed it up!' so obviously she changed her mind. We both had a cheese and ham toastie on sourdough bread which was delicious and served quickly. There is a wonderful selection of cakes that sadly I didn't try. Liked the idea of selecting 6 cakes to be boxed as a present - great idea for locals. Will happily eat here again

My wife and regularly visit here when we are in the intu, centre. Very friendly atmosphere, quick and efficient. Very good coffee and sandwiches at reasonable prices. It welcomes children too, we often take our grandchildren. And has a nice selection of snacks and cakes. The cafe is nicely furnished and clean and table cleared quickly. Overall a good experience compared to some of the more familiar, coffee establishments.

Called into this lovely coffee shop while shopping in the shopping centre. It was really busy so that is always a good indication. We spotted an empty table and my wife sat down at it while I went to the counter and ordered our latte and the choice of muffins is absolutely incredible. I chose a strawberry and cream one. The coffee was superb and the muffin was the best we have ever tasted, it was so fresh that it just broke up into small pieces, it's was so yummy though. Great place to sit and take out some time.

This cafe visit was a success from start to finish. Everything was right. Bright and colourful, the openness of the room itself is quite a feature. Woollen cones decorate one wall, with yarn wound across a loom image on another. Colourful and well situated furnishings make this cafe welcoming and no table appears to offer a hotly contested seat/table or otherwise. All seating is good. A wide selection of foods are available over a reasonable price range, with both savoury and sweet items. The service is tremendous, rapid and with a cheery smile. Assistance is given by staff with carrying plates to your table but trays are provided for the drinks. Decaffeinated tea is available. The scones were very fresh indeed. Loyalty cards are deployed too. We will most certainly visit this gem again while in Derby and are delighted to find a welcome alternative to a Main & Stream cafe nearby. Fully recommended. Popular and well visited, so get in early for lunch. Toilets are there but we haven't visited those yet. Easy access for mobility arrangements, young and otherwise.

Went to this cafe on opening day - brilliant no complaints. Two visits since - coffee cold on both occasions, returned on first visit and given new ones, reluctantly! Second visit we were with a friend who wanted to go in here. Cold coffee again(Cappuccino).We ordered a sausage roll and had to go and ask for it, barely warm. The problem is because they are busy they dont spend the time making coffee properly. Shame.

Well what can I say, We had never heard of BB's before, but came across this place in the intu centre in Derby. Service was very friendly, and so informative as to how they made their muffins etc, nice clean place, great atmosphere. Only opened in August this year, so we were told, and we would highly recommend a visit to this place.

Visited last night on a whim and had a bit of a wait because the place was full. Once seated the staff were very attentive ensuring our drinks came quickly and clearing our plates. Each time with a smile and checking we were happy. There was a huge choice of dishes and they were kept well stocked. There's nothing worse than wanting a particular dish for it to have run out and not restocked and that didn't happen. There is no shortage of what I would call the premium dishes, such as lamb and king prawns and everything was high quality. We have visited several times and despite eating many dishes, I still haven't managed to try half of them. Place seems very well run with plenty of staff all working hard.

Good music and good value drinks. Have not been for a very long time and it has changed since I last went (no longer serves food and more open plan than it was). Won't leave it as long until I next go,

It was in 1979 as a 18yr old I and the youth of the day use to call into this wonderful propper café. The days of Anti pasti the punk band of derby who use to hang out on old derby Market place along with all the other people who use to call and eat or just drink the really good coffee and tea that use to be served here . I became homeless at around 20 yrs of age and every Thursday for reasons I'm still not sure of I use to always call into the Acropolis for either breakfast or a really hearty afternoon meal . It is such a shame to hear that the place has closed down. Another sad blow to derby I am sad to say . I can honestly say that the my memories of the place and the staff who worked there is one of gratefulness. The place literally kept me alive at a very dark period of my life . The food was brilliant and plentiful. Not sure if anyone who owned the place back then or who worked there back in the late 70s will read this but the Acropolis cafe saved my life . Sounds a bit odd I know but trust me to be able to have a lovely hot meal at affordable prices and a hot drink saved my life . Thank you all at Acropolis. That café has always always and will always hold a special place in my Heart 💙 . Such a loss . Thank you Barry . Xx

Surprised there aren't more reviews for this 'proper' cafe. Lots of simple, but filling choices - the usuals on toast, chip cobs, sandwiches, full meals etc - for excellent value prices. Fed 2 hungry kids and myself with drinks with change from £10 - try and do that elsewhere! Service was efficient, food arrived quickly. It tasted great and with good portion sizes. Just what was required!
