Chatsworth Kitchen in Derbyshire Dales - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

The coffee was fine but a bit small. The broadbean and pea smash was rather ordinary and dry. It seemed like finely chopped broad beans and peas with no dressing mixed in, topped with some cherry tomatoes, a bit of red onion, and a bit of ordinary salad dressing. It was mounted on a dry chunk of sourdough. Very unexciting. The portion of fries was small and oversalted. We only went there because the other cafe is shut for a refurb. Won't bother again.

We popped in just after lunch for some coffee and cake. We received a lovely welcome from a member of the team, and we got our table of choice. Service was quick and efficient - within a few minutes we had our drinks and cake. The setting is truly unique and amazing!! The entire experience was perfect: - perfect service - perfect drinks and cakes (scones and cream) - perfect setting

Lunch out with my mum & nana. Excellent food, very friendly & professional staff, well worth a visit. Will definitely be back soon. Thank you x

Been here a couple of times now. Great to have a lovely restaurant like this in a shopping outlet. Staff are friendly and efficient and food arrives swiftly. However the menu never changes and doesn’t reflect the season in any way. It’s very expensive for quite ordinary food, chips are not included. Very limited choice of beers. Salad was just a few over dressed leaves. Could be so much better- disappointing

First time visit to Chatsworth Kitchen today. I ordered the Vegetarian Breakfast and an Americano. The coffee was excellent and I enjoyed everything on the plate, apart from the vegetarian sausages which were absolutely disgusting. When dining out, I avoid giving negative feedback unless absolutely necessary. This was necessary! This was not the cheapest vegetarian breakfast I have ever had. It was very disappointing that one of the key ingredients was inedible. I expected better.

This restaurant has a stately atmosphere.We especially appreciated the choice between solid hardwood or rare English marble tabletops and quality comfortable seating.There is plenty of room if you have mobility problems including a wheelchair.The staff were very attentive from start to finish.The food was delicious and of excellent quality which is what you would expect with the Chatsworth name above the door.Spotlessly clean.We shall be returning!

This was our fourth visit as it had become one of our favourite places to go. The food is good and reasonably priced and we like the ambience. However on this occasion the service was poor. We arrived before our booking so had a drink whilst waiting. When we were able to order I couldn't have what I wanted as the Chef had been called away. We were told he would be 20 minutes so decided to wait. After 35 minutes I couldn't wait any longer so had something else instead. I don't know why we weren't told about the absence of the flatbread chef when we ordered our drinks. We had to ask for our empty glasses and bottles to be removed and we had to ask for the dessert menu. The gentleman on front of house was very unwelcoming and looked totally bored. He had to seat people as well as take payment which may have aggrevated him, if so he certainly wasn't hiding it. We were celebrating our wedding anniversary and the poor service spoilt it. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone unless the service was improved. I wonder if they have become complacent because of the name.

My wife and I visited today for lunch, we didnt book but was given a table and I have to say that that its a lovely place. Staff were friendly, professional and attentive, I had the pie of the day and wow it was absolutely gorgeous, the best pie I've had in a very long time. My wife had the burger and it was cooked to perfection, great prices we will definitely be coming back very soon. Thank you to all the staff.

Delicious food with Vegetarian and Vegan choices on the menu. Dog friendly restaurant that accepts walk-ins, which was convenient as we hadn’t booked. The food was good quality, service was prompt and friendly. Just what we needed early on Saturday evening on a cold February day.

I am so shocked this place hasn't got higher reviews! Atmosphere- lovely, friendly, comfy, really well decorated Food- Absolutely delicious, excellent portions, fresh but still fast. We came again the next day but it was packed so sadly we went elsewhere (not their fault of course) definitely the best place we ate over 3 days in the area!

I'm a regular visitor to the Chatsworth area, I've eaten at most of the Chatsworth food outlets but I hadn't tried the Kitchen until today as I'd been slightly put off but reviews on here. The food offering at Chatsworth I find is mostly good to very good but never cheap. We went today after a walk at Chatsworth and I must say the food was top quality, we had the steak and ale pie which worth the £16 compared with other eateries in the area. Very nice decore and despite being busy service was friendly and efficient, will be coming back.

We both ordered a BLT sandwich for our lunch. The bacon was mainly fat with a few slivers of bacon. As I can’t eat fat due to a medical condition,I asked the waitress if this is normal for the bacon to be as fatty. She whipped the plate away while I was eating half of the sandwich which from I had removed the bacon from and said she would see if she could get any with less fat. When she returned with the rest of my sandwich and bacon which had been cooked until the fat was browned she said it says streaky bacon on the menu. When we went to pay we checked the menu and it says cured bacon not streaky. Apparently they use streaky for the breakfasts as well. We said we weren’t happy & they gave us a 20% discount. The supervisor said they would alter the menu. Very disappointed Chatsworth. We would expect better. Should have gone to Massarella’s.

Everybody deserves a second chance: we have just done that! - First time: we stood at the Please wait to be seated pulpit: after 10 minutes of standing there looking like fools, we got seated. After another 10 minutes wait our Capuccinos arrived: kind of, because no froth on the top... - Second chance: we sat down in this, shall we call it, "atmosphere-less" place and got another set of Capuccinos: they were that hot we could not touch the cups and had to order a small jug of cold milk, defeating the object by diluting th drink,which was brought by a waiter who didn't think a modest apology would have been nice... The place lacks in soft furnishings, but foremost the general atmosphere is a stiff one, a mix of arrogance from the staff combined with unorganized service. In the same spirit most items for sale commend arrogant prices. The winelist for instance contains a fair amount of wines from the cheaper part of France vineyards but having a pathetic price mark up. You might say you can't judge a venue on a couple of Capuccinos? Yes you can.

Disappointed in breakfast. Very dry black pudding. Speciality smoked beans were tasteless. Pricy for what you got. Best part was coffee

Super spot ! Brunch with friends and dogs. Delicious food and excellent service ! We will definitely be back

We had wait for a while to get seated and again to get served. The staff seemed to be fed up and certainly their service pointed to the same. Most cakes had run out and overall a poor service and poor choices

Food was cold, waittress took the food back and it was placed in the microwave to warm it up, not a great experience.

Came out for a drive & decided to try Chatsworth Kitchen , our first time , Billie came out to tell us it was Dog Friendly which I really liked , the decor is beautiful, so tastefully done. The service by Kip was superb , so relaxed , we had pancakes & eggs royale , both delicious & great quality , even Gino , our Golden Retriever had a Sausage which looked great It is a really special place , hope to visit over Christmas & have a Mimosa with our breakfast .. Thankyou for being so Dog Friendly .

Called for a coffee and scone and we were not to be disappointed. Lovely setting and very popular. Thank you to the staff who managed to find us a table as the cafe was busy and there were many reserved tables. The cafetiere coffee for two was more than ample, very fresh and tasty. The scone very nice too and service good. Excellent decor and also plenty of magazines available to read when having your drinks. Seems to be a place that it would be worth booking if you are coming for food or with a group.

Family lunch gathering booked in advance and most disappointed. Delivery of food service was slow and sandwiches were underwhelming. The steak sandwiches were supposed to be served on ciabatta but the bread was more like a soft bloomer sub roll. When asked if the sandwiches had been served on Ciabatta we were abruptly advised, yes, that's our Ciabatta. It was served on an overly large plate with a small slice of steak and a bit of bland frilly lettuce, with no tomato etc. Chips could be ordered at an additional cost. It was just about warm and delivered last to the table. Overall service was inconsistent, some staff were good but sadly a couple of others were not. Certainly not worth the ~£175 for 10 people having sandwiches and a coffee. Sadly we will not return. No where near the standard of the Chatsworth brand and the fantastic Farm shop cafe.

I could rave on for pages about how brilliant this restaurant/cafe is. Wonderful decor and ambience, Great staff. We ate there twice and the food was "best ever", especially the burger. They make amazing G&Ts (doubles for £7-50!). Ignore the bad reviews and grab a...

After a warm welcome we were left waiting for 20 minutes before any service and that was only when I approached staff. our waitess was very off and had a face like thunder. the food was average and again we waited forty five minutes for...

Fantastic menu especially for vegetarians. Food was delicious. Service was friendly and accommodating to our needs as one of our party was gluten intolerant. I can’t wait to go back!

Spectacular full breakfast. The bacon was the best I’ve had in years, the sausage was good too. The black pudding hash was something I had never tasted before and it was fantastic, the smoky baked beans had just the right amount smokiness for interest but...

We arrived promptly for our 1.00.p.m booking and were disappointed to find that, already, there were no flatbreads and no toasted brioche with chestnut mushrooms. My friend chose the broad bean, mint and garden pea smash on rye bread with a tomato salsa which she...

Arrived for lunch at 12:00 On a bank holiday Monday. After a wait for any staff to appear we were taken to a table. Overheard another table being told that orders weren’t being taken for lunch. We enquired to be told a wait to order...

Based in the Peak Village retail park, Rowsley - built around a former railway station - the café/restaurant is an ideal place to visit and have lunch or simply relax over a delicious tea/coffee and cake, even if you have no interest in exploring the...

The service was poor we had to wait ages for our drinks which we saw were sitting on a counter,a few feet away.The food was poor the mushrooms soggy and the egg over cooked and small,all sitting on a soggy piece of tasteless bread.Very disappointing...

Absolutely disgusting service. Ignorant, arrogant staff. Hopefully this place will fail because it's relying on the Chatsworth name, but it will lose any local repeat business.

Average food, a bit over priced. They were quiet but everything seemed like a massive effort for the staff. There are better places to get a bite to eat in the local area. We ordered 3 sandwiches and were given choices in types of bread,...

Very disappointed. Place was very quiet but it took 10 minutes for our order to be taken then another 15 minutes for pot of tea to arrive. The food took 45 minutes to appear by which time we were ready to walk out, having been...

Over priced for 1 sausage, 1 bacon, awful 'curry' beans, under-cooked egg - {white was still translucent}, Asked for 2 take away sandwiches as per menu - "Chatsworth BLT with Chatsworth cured bacon, lettuce, heritage tomato on lightly toasted bread" and told to order these...

Every time we have made the effort to visit this place be it morning early or mid lunch time or afternoon there is always an excuse for no food except for coffee and cake called this morning for breakfast and was told for the umpteenth...

Thoroughly enjoyed our lunch here, by far one of the best meals in a lovely place. Staff were lovely and the food was delightful. I had the steak sandwich, the steak was tender and there was plenty of it in the bun, lovely caramelised onions,...

I don’t usually post reviews but having seen so many negative comments, I thought I ought to share my experience. I live within walking distance of Peak Village so have been visiting Chatsworth Kitchen since it opened. I meet family and friends there very regularly...

First of all, it’s nothing to do with Chatsworth, mikes away, and in a rather soulless shopping precinct, popular with an older clientele but there is ample parking The menu is quite short and nothing out of the ordinary- although the tomato and plum salad...

Having enjoyed a number of good breakfasts and lunches here, we were very disappointed today. The quality of the food was nowhere near as good, and the portion sizes appeared to be much smaller. The accompanying salads were tiny, the flat breads smaller and sparsely...

no scones, bacon sandwich was just plain bread and lookwarm bacon and coffee was weak and lacklustre. Dont know why you have to book as place was only third full.

Was really nice to be able to take our dog in a restaurant. The service was first class. We had the breakfast which was very tasty. Would definitely recommend.

Whats Happened? went last year and it was fab. they made our flat bread un the oven in the cafe,there was a great choice of tasty salads. I told family and friends they must visit. Then I returned. The menu has been slashed, I had...

Really disappointed in the atmosphere and quality of food. We were sat in a far, cold, dark corner, next to the toilets due to the fact we had dogs (I had stated they would get under any table) I appreciate they were trying to give...

This cafe style eatery and shop is in the Peek Village shopping complex. With the famous Chatsworth House brand and prices you would expect this to be top end. You will be disappointed. It is quite trendy and spotlessly clean. It has a very limited...

Great atmosphere, staff were fantastic and were super accommodating. A lot of effort made into the interiors and curation in their homeware shop. The food was good and you could tell all the ingredients were good quality and made local. Only criticism is that the...

We’ve been here a lot,it’s lovely despite its surroundings and each time the food has been lovely…today that wasn’t the case,sadly. The flatbread with ricotta and wild mushrooms was sooo tasteless I had to salt it a few times.The salads we ordered,again tasted of nothing….we...

Been here once or twice with my family, food always a good standard, service always quick and good range of delicious cakes. Attractive little shop inside too.

We Chose Chatsworth Kitchen as a place to meet up with family for lunch, 4 adults. The service & food was exceptional, the restaurant is warm, friendly & very spacious. We had 4 Mains, 4 deserts, 6 coffees & 4 glasses of wine, we all...

My mum and I call her for lunch quite regularly - always great food, nice drinks, lovely staff. The prices are a little on the higher side but it's good food in tasteful surroundings. Also got a fab selection of bits for sale too

We had a terrible visit… we were seated at the rear of the restaurant just across from the toilets! The door to toilets was propped open and there was a terrible smell coming from the toilets! The assistant confirmed the bad odour and asked the...

We had really good tasty food and were served very well. The pies were particularly good. The menu isn’t long, but there’s plenty of variety on it and the drinks menu is interesting. We would only like to see some improvement in the cakes which...

Beautiful place, proper service and good food. Not an extensive menu but something for everyone. Added benefit of a lovely shop within the cafe.

We've been here a couple of times now and found it to be really good. It was very busy, as both times we visited on a Saturday, but they are very accommodating and it didn't take long for the staff to sort us out with...

Overpriced and very pretentious food ...didn't even know it was an eatery from the outside given all the plants for sale outside. Was hoping it was going to be a foodhall/ deli...alas it was not...we decided to go in and stay given we had not...

Pathetic unprofessional, they close the kitchen at 11.30-12 but on this occasion decided to close at 11.15 , won’t be driving out from Sheffield again, shops uninspiring and expensive don’t be fooled the prices in the shops are more than high street and a lot...

Disappointing visit for my daughter’s birthday. I booked early online (their site takes you to the Open Table App). I booked because with three vegans in the party I saw there were 2 items on the breakfast menu (available til 11.30) but a few more...

What a lovely place. Large and spacious. Great shop for the kitchen, items you didn’t know you needed. Very unique stuff. The breakfast was great. I had porridge and it was very nice. Couldn’t resist a mince pie with brandy butter after too. It was...

We’ve been a couple of times and each time the food was lovely. The staff ,predominantly ladies of a certain age , make it a friendly and unpretentious place to eat… if you can forget ,for a while ,the place outside…it is a little depressing,and...

I don't usually go to the 'peak village', but by chance heard of The Chatsworth Kitchen today! We called in by chance and did have to mooch about for half an hour before a table was available which was fair enough, but the service, food...

Simple efficient booking system. Confirmation and reminder. ( Always a good idea for me !) A lovely venue, polite and unpretentious staff, very tasty food and great service. I really enjoyed my lunch and look forward to returning asap. Great to have a book swap...

Loved the venue and the food was excellent however the service whilst polite left a lot to be desired at times . The pie of the day had ‘run out’ , side dishes were forgotten and when we asked for ketchup 2 almost empty bottles...

Not a good experience - the WORST !!! @chatsworthkitchen we booked coffee at 11am for lunch at 12. Seated and served coffee then waited and waited. No server re-visited our table. They went to the table next to us and were obviously taking orders from...
