David Mellor Cafe in Derbyshire Dales - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

My brother and I chose the Spanish Tomatoes and the Ladybower Smoked Trout. My dish was the smoked trout and it was truly excellent. I could have eaten a second one.

Very disappointing. I went to the counter to view the cakes and the two staff didn’t bother breaking away from their conversation to acknowledge me. Returned to the table to discuss the menu/options and was approached by a guy who explained about ordering and paying at the counter. We ordered one carrot and parsnip soup, two teas and a sticky ginger cake. Frankly the soup was awful! So little liquid I’m not sure how they can call it a soup. Chunks of under cooked carrot and parsnip with a large dollop of pesto on top just doesn’t cut it! I’m a Yorkshire lass who loves a good cuppa - but the tea was so strong it was bitter. The tea for two gives you two cups and not a drop more! The saving grace was the excellent ginger cake.

We had an excellent lunch with really friendly service. Really lovely salads and toasted sandwiches. The lentil dish of the day was excellent too !

Excellent really imaginative food, extremely tasty. Lovely service. Lovely place. The loo is too much like a public convenience and the flush didn't work. Otherwise Superb!

No wonder they have been awarded a place in The Good Food Guide as the food is superb. I had the salad plate which had every wonderful vegetable you can think of dressed with hummus, salsa verde and roast squash. The dhal is another favourite along with Spanish tomatoes on sourdough. Cakes are different every time - plum crumble muffins and basque cheesecake to name a couple being my favourites. Good, friendly service and a stylish setting.

Wow! Superb lunch in super, stylish surroundings made even better by the most charming waiter-thank you! Excellent shop onsite too.

Best salad I've ever eaten! The soup and Spanish toast were also excellent. Would love to go back for coffee and cakes which also looked delicious. Such a lovely, stylish place with friendly staff, and a gorgeous shop too.

This place served me the most incredible salad I have ever had. You would never have thought of putting these ingredients together and I don’t think I have ever had such a wonderful experience with quality produce, colour and taste, We learnt that every meal is made from scratch with the most exciting ingredients and the puddings and little sides and additions they sell are a wonderful surprise. The tea was served loose leafed and in beautiful pots. The childrens hot chocolates were the perfect temperature for their little hands. We didn’t have any dietary needs but the staff were allergy conscious and I saw the head chef speak to someone about their complex needs which was reassuring if you have a worry. I also noted the environment is safe and accessible for more vulnerable visitors and the area is spacious with ground floor toilets for anyone with mobility needs. The customer service was perfect and attentive and I am not surprised that these guys have just been listed in the Good Food Guide. The museum across the path does a tour and the kids loved learning how to make the knives and forks as well as looking at all the other things on display. We will definitely be recommending and can’t wait to visit again to try the other dishes on the menu. Thankyou so much for a brilliant afternoon.

An outstanding cafe in David Mellor’s remarkable shop and factory. The coffee is impeccable, specially roasted in nearby Buxton, and the pie and salad I had for lunch were a rival for any restaurant in the Peak District. Hugely recommended

After trying lots of cafes in Derbyshire and Sheffield, this one is our favourite as it never fails to deliver. The food is different and delicious and their coffee is the best. We've always been able to get a table and the staff are friendly and efficient. Me and my husband have been here quite a few times and it's now our go to happy place. Love it!

We came here for brunch and the food was exquisite! The pastries were fresh and very tasty. Highly recommend the Spanish Tomato Toast with poached eggs. Beautiful restaurant with very friendly staff. The scenery complements the food and is very relaxing to sit and watch the birds in the trees.

Top marks for cleanliness, friendliness and the superb quality of food. I highly recommend the smoked mackerel - delicious. This place trebles as a Michelin-type cafe, a museum and designer cutlery-ware. It’s definitely worth a visit.

The food is really good, so is the coffee and the soft drinks. Nice staff. I would go more if I lived closer.

The best Reuben I have ever tasted. Toasted Sourdough with tasty side salad, Derbyshire roast beef, mature cheddar, kimchi, russian sauce. It had everything a sandwich should have, sweet, sour, crunchy, soft, the sauce dripping down fingers that had to be licked clean time and again, layer upon layer of flavour, each mouthful, a savouring of taste and texture and moments of time. A truly wonderful experience. For the best Reuben you have to make a visit. For desert cake, mango, lime, and coconut, with cream AND raspberry sorbet. Lovely staff, no delay with the food. As always we will be back.

We’ve eaten here a handful of times before and live locally so know it well. The last visit was just for tea & cake late last year sometime. I brought my parents along this time, they were treating us to lunch (4 adults, one teen). We ordered 5 sandwiches, 2 coffees, 2 teas and 1 OJ. The total … £75! Absolutely horrified at the price and so embarrassed that I had suggested the venue to my parents. I didn’t see the prices when we ordered as I had forgotten my glasses (so my husband read the menu to me!!). If I had I would have insisted we go elsewhere (plenty of other options nearby). The food was good but in no way justified the price, whatever the provenance of the food etc. We are lucky to be able to eat out a lot and have noticed increased prices everywhere but this was way above any rises we have seen elsewhere. We won’t be back. It feels like they are taking the mickey out of customers and I see from other reviews we are not alone in this.

Service was excellent. Helpful and attentive. I had the Persian chicken which was utterly delicious. Delicate, well flavoured and staff happy to serve the picked chilli on the side ( fortunately- v hot) . Not the cheapest lunch but excellent value for money.

Amazing, attentively staff and insanely good food! We had the house salad which was hands down the best salad I’ve ever eaten, Latte was made to perfection too. Highly recommend 👌🏼

completely amused by the fuss, rude customers and even ruder staff. 20 minutes to produce 2 coffee and the driest cake ever, then waning to whip away your cup in order to seat a regular, nice museum and nice shop, awful cafe.

The first rule of customer service is not that the customer is always right but that you MUST LISTEN to the customer. When they tell you they have been a loyal customer for year, you thank them. When they write a polite email to tell...

We've visited this café numerous times over the years and it never disappoints. The espresso was excellent. It was the perfect temperature, full of flavour and topped with a good covering of crema. Sitting outside in the sunshine was a bonus; the quiet amongst the...

What a lovely treat, lovely atmosphere, amazing salad and toasted sandwich. Not rushed or felt in the way, polite and efficient service. Will definitely be back.

Visited here as I had heard such great things. I ordered a coffee. I looked over the menu to see toasties (those light bites you often get at cheap greasy spoons). Or the over priced larger meals. I asked a young woman at the counter...

Not sure about food as we only had ga snack but it’s well done and busy although cakes on counter not covered

Lovely relaxing place for a light meal and friendly staff. However waiting times over 40mins for a bowl of soup and bread - and many tables getting restless with slow service. It was a busy but not packed Sunday lunchtime - service should be slicker...

Great choice of food with friendly service and reasonable prices. Always a pleasure to walk round the shop and now have coffee tea or, even better, lunch.

This cafe is situated in, what is probably, the most exclusive cutlery and kitchen ware retail outlet in Yorkshire. Coffee is very good but the morning snacks are possibly not as good (depending on what you like) than when it was run by David Mellors....

never tire of visiting the design Museum and enjoying a light bight - Visit very regularly - civilised place for meeting friends

We called here for lunch after visiting the David Mellor shop. The Persian Chicken was excellent - one of the best meals I’ve had for a while. Only downside was that the portions were small. Serving staff and surroundings very pleasant.

Stopped here for lunch on our way to our hotel. Wish it was on our doorstop! Fabulous food with passionate chefs. We had the Persian Chicken and the Dhal followed by a cardamom croissant. They checked if we had any dietary needs. It was some...

Generous pieces of cake given I had the GF polenta cake husband had the chocolate cake which too was gluten free so I was able too try that too lovely and gooey .Very interesting place to visit with a excellent shop to purchase lots of lovely items alongside the great coffee shop.

Called here on our way to Hathersage. Had a quick browse in the shop then decided to have drinks in the cafe. We visited a few months ago, had lunch and it was lovely. The cafe is clean with a decent choice of things to eat. We only needed drinks and the staff were helpful. When the young waitress brought the drinks over she accidentally dropped the small jug of milk and it went on my husbands trousers and coat. She immediately apologised and brought him cloths to clean himself up. We laughed about it and it wasnt a problem. A while later another lady came to us offering apologies and handed us an envelope. As we were on our way home I looked in the envelope and saw it was a voucher. There really was no need for it but thank you anyway.

Went for a light healthy lunch. The salads there are lovely and the coffee the best I’ve had for a long time... friendly and efficient service and what a lovely and unusual place for a lunch.

Having read some mixed reviews on this place we decided to take a punt and try it out. I have to say that all of us were extremely happy with the food and drinks that was served to us. The only negative I can say is that we seemed to be overlooked and it took us a while to get the attention of someone to take our food order, which as we were sat next to the till point seemed slightly annoying. However we all had a great time, the internals of the building are great to look at, and makes a good and different setting for a spot of lunch. We will be back.

My wife and I called in today for an early coffee - our visit turned out to be much more. It's diffcult to find the words to describe the complex. The cafe is linked to a shop, a museum and a working factory (which didn't look like a factory and had won an architectural award) - all in memory of David Mellor. We confess our ignorance as we had not heard of him. He is apparently one of the best-known designers in Britain, specialising in metalwork and especially cutlery. We had a lovely coffee and delicious piece of cake in a very comfortable cafe. The staff were very helpful and friendly and everywhere was spotlessly clean. The grounds were relaxing and very well maintained with plenty of car parking space.Either side of our coffee we looked round the shop and the musuem which gave us a fascinating insight into David Mellor's work. There are excellent displays which are well explained without going over the top. It was so interesting to see so many every day things that David Mellor had designed - these ranged from traffic lights, street lamps, letter boxes and benches to a wide range of domestic products including cutlery.I'm sure we will make a return visit. Thanks again for looking after us so well even though our stay was brief - it made an excellent start to our walk along the river valley to Calver and back.

I stopped here for lunch It was a break in my walk along the Derwent. I had a sandwich and enjoyed every munch. It was a pound or so more expensive than one from the supermarket but well worth it. It was fresh and full of taste and texture and it filled me for the next few miles. The cafe occupies about half of the space. The rest contains a display, for purchase, of the wonderful cutlery.Don’t miss either.

We’ve been going here for years somethings wrong change of staff have to pay when ordering and seems to be quite expensive? no cheery staff seem very miserable very disappointing

The food was maybe a little too pretentious ( there were no plain sandwiches !) and a tiny bit too expensive ( one slice of gf cake £4.50 !!) but the cafe itself was clean , airy and the staff were plentiful and all very friendly and efficient . It's a definite destination place but worth it as a treat and looking round the accompanying museum and shop is interesting. What let this place down was the toilets ! There was just one male and one female toilet and at one point there were five women waiting in a snaking queue down the cafe to use the toilet . The car park and seating is geared up for coach parties so I expected better then this . Once in the toilet I could see all the design work had gone into the cafeteria and not in there ! Skirting board was coming off , there was rubbish round the cistern area and the dryer didn't work . My Dad told me that in the men's toilet not even the automatic tap worked . A real shame to an otherwise stylish building.

Went today with my wife. She chose a chicken sandwich on brown bread, this came with salad leaves with a vinegrette. She said the chicken was moist and tender. I chose to have a cheddar cheese sandwich on a white roll with red onion chutney. The cheese was fine but the bread was dry and rather tasteless, the red onion chutney was far to sweet for my pallate. Service, was as usual excellent and coffee's were lovely. Next time I may find something I will enjoy.

We called in to DM`s to have a look around after a walk around the dales and decided to have a coffee and a sandwich whilst sitting outside in the sun with the dog. The Sandwich`s were very good , if a bit pricey , and I had cheese and ham and the missus halloumi and peppers. This is a nice place and has good service and a pleasant seating area. I wouldn`t return purely for the dining experience however.

The food isn't cheap but finding nice salad options in the UK has proved difficult for us so far. Here we managed to find a good selection and a nice coffee. It seemed a popular place for walkers and cyclists to stop for a break.

The cafe is a great way to finish your tour of the site and all of the very tempting kitchen and dining ware on sale. At first glance, the full-size traffic light momentarily stops you in your tracks while you wait for the light to turn green :O)

What a brilliant place for coffee. A one off, surrounded by items made by David Mellor's company. The place doesn't age, still as fresh as it was years ago when I first visited. Also good to look round the kitchen shop for the things you can't live without

I've been here a few times with different friends and relatives who have suggested it because they like it. Each time I go along thinking the food might have improved, but its got steadily worse. This last time I think has been the worst, with fibrous Celeriac and Apple soup which quite frankly just got stuck in my teeth and tasted of nothing. Then a scone (the scones used to be OK) not any more! They were dry, heavy and tasted of cheap vanilla flavouring.... Vanilla just doesn't taste right in a scone!! I left my mine after a mouthful and brought it to the attention of the very pleasant waiter. However, to my surprise, he just said he was sorry to hear that, but still charged me for the uneaten scone!!

Went here for coffee and lunch however was put off getting lunch my completely ignorant staff and girl serving at the till.

Let me explain. We popped in too have a look around and then have a spot of lunch. The cafe was very clean and the staff attentive. There is a limited menu, not a problem because it is what it is , a small cafe. My wife had quiche that came with a very nice looking mixed salad. I chose the mushroom soup and focaccia bread. The soup did not resemble mushrooms with the exception of the odd whole button mushroom put into the soup at some time, the overwhelming taste was that of celery. I make my own version of mushroom soup and there is no celery in it, only onion, sliced mushrooms, stock and a little cream. When it is served it actually looks and tastes like mushroom soup.

A joy to visit, so many great well designed products in one place. The David Mellor factory is also in a fabulous location. Well worth the visit.

We stopped for lunch at this popular little cafe. It is small inside but there is also outdoor seating available. Staff very helpful and friendly. Food was of a high standard, cafe menu offers good choice. Good sized portions.

Loved the center and the food in the cafe. Everything is done at a very high standard. The staff are well trained and the food presented well.

Visited at lunchtime.The special today was a beef stew with ciabatta, or other bread. Ordered two, only to be told it was not yet ready. This was 1.10, perhaps a little early for Sunday lunch. Asked waiter when it would be ready. He said "At least an hour and a half". By my reckoning that is 14.40, heading for afternoon tea time. When I pointed this out waiter said "Well, it is Sunday and they've only just delivered the beef". No apology given

When you read mixed reviews on somewhere, it only makes you want try for yourself & make your own option.

The staff were lovely; helpful and friendly but not overly so. The food was overpriced and disappointing. My husband had a sandwich on ciabatta; the bread was dry and the filling lacklustre. I ordered the quiche, expecting a nice big chunk, but it was a very small individual thing. I'd be very surprised if it measured 10 cm across! And it was tasteless. The meal was bulked out with salad and far too many potatoes. These were nice but obviously the cheapest ingredient. For £9.50 I expected a better balanced plate. My husband's cappuccino was also tiny and disproportionate to the cost of £2.75. Surroundings were very nice and the place was clean, however we wouldn't eat there again.

If you read the other reviews you will see some variable comments - maybe because the identity of the place is a bit obscure - is it a cafe with a kitchen shop and a 'museum' - is it a kitchen shop with a cafe and museum or is it a museum with a cafe and kitchen shop?

David Mellor cafe is an understated cafe serving divine coffee. Having ordered the almond torte my mother and I were disappointed to find that this was an almond and coconut torte as my mother is allergic to coconut. Clearer guidance on ingredients is very pertinent at the moment and perhaps this should be a consideration in the future.

We go off quite often with my in laws, and all the food we've had here is consistently great. The menu often has something a bit quirky and different on it too. Last time we went I had a lovely blueberry and lemon cake. My 8 year also likes it because there is an old tractor in the grounds and a set of traffic lights in the cafe!

Lovely, spacious, light, architecturally pleasing cafe attached to the David Mellor design museum. Good menu and well-presented and well-prepared food. I’d suggest it’s a cafe worth going to even if you weren’t actually interested in the museum. Stunning kitchen-and-dining-focused outlet shop attached in which it would be easy to spend a small fortune on exquisitely designed and crafted products.

After visiting the shop, which was lovely, we decided on coffee. Waiter service was disappointing, we waited a good 15 minutes and almost walked away. Several tables were dirty (including ours) and had dirty pots on them, which remained for most of our visit. The coffee was good, although quite a small portion for the amount of money. The place wasn't over busy.

Hidden off the main road between Grindleford AND Hathersage, look for the round building. Tasty coffee and cake can be had in this tranquil spot, seating also available outside. Staff friendly and quality crockery as one would expect from this superb cook shop.

We have never come away from the shop without buying top notch items. Cafe great, super coffee, service always good especially if you sit outside with your dog.

My husband and I visited today and decided to have lunch, the young man who served us was very pleasant but I observed him being bullied by the girl on the coffee and till, she was completely stressed and continued to bark some orders to the lad and another waitress who had apologised to us because we had almost done finished lunch and had to ask for our drinks she explained we have a new manager who wants service this way. Our food was average, no butter on the dry sandwich and the cake poor, but really my main concern was how uncomfortable I felt watching the staff. I really hope someone at David Mellors takes note of my comments because it’s such a shame a wonderful place has so much potential for people to eat and drink in a lovely site.

For many years this cafe has set high standards for food and customer service - not any more!

We went to the cafe almost every time we went for hiking in Hathersage. We love their Vitoria sponge cake especially. Last Saturday, we stopped by and asked for 2 different cakes and biscuit and jam. While they all were delicious, my husband found a long hair stuck in the icing of one of the cakes. He called the waitress. She apologized and mentioned that they bring the cakes in (like they're not responsible) She didn't offer to change the cake. At the time of paying, no one mentioned anything and we paid the full price. Had this happened anywhere with the least amount of standard, they would have cross that item off the bill. Instead, they crossed us off from their list of customers, as that was the last time we went there.

Very limited menu until the new chef arrives at the end of July 2018, remaining staff trying very hard but only a choice of three sandwiches at present.

There seems to have been a changeover and things have fallen off a cliff. No food no snacks no lardie cake and no service. No customers either. I hope things pick up

A very pleasant atmosphere. The person making coffee seemed to know what he was doing, so we ordered coffee. Unfortunately what was supposed to be a cafe latte turned out to be a mug of very hot milk with one shot of coffee in it. It quickly developed a skin. "Was everything ok?" Well, I explained, it was a cup of hot milky coffee. "That’s what a latte is" was the response. I suggested the milk should be foamed. "I didn’t make that one, it was the other lady" was the response. "Sometimes when you go to costa, it isn’t very good" she went on. Hardly the point. "That’s £8 please". I paid. And having planned to go into the store to buy a few kitchen items, I left. Training in making coffee would have been good. You just can’t use an espresso machine without it. Training in customer service even more important. At this price point, both really need to be better.

Friendly staff serve you at the table with tempting refreshments in a clean airy cafe.

You must stop and shop then have either tea and a cake or a good lunch. It’s different but good food

A most interesting place and a very friendly team and great service. The building is fascinating as are all the design items in show. The coffee was excellent and will definitely return.

Lovely coffee and location. Very limited menu to soup and cold sandwiches. None of which were inspiring. Expensive also. Food was tasty and well presented. Place was not busy at all however car park was full. Service was a bit hit and miss.

My husband and I visited this cafe recently and were looking forward to some nice food and hospitality. The hospitality was there but the food and the PRICES were terrible. The menu was limited, the soup was awful and £7.95 for two slices of bread with a piece of ham in the middle was extortionate . There was salad but this was just carrot with poppy seeds, lettue and some halved cherry tomatoes. I will say that the staff were great and very cheerful. I won't be visiting again !! What a rip off

Interesting cafe in this design museum and factory with adjacent excellent kitchen shop. Accompanied by traffic lights and a Porche waitress service provides a ranges of relativley expensive light bites, sandwiches and cakes. I had an excellent cheddar and pickle sandwich, pale ale and Americano. Slight negatives include no free wifi, a long stretch of tables and a mix up with our order including the wrong food and no knives and forks (possibly new staff so forgiven). Generally very good, liked the shop, slightly expensive.

Friends invited us to join them for lunch as they had eaten in the cafe in the summer and enjoyed the meal. We had only ever had coffee there previously.

An unexpected treat to find such a lovely cafe incorporated inside ‘the museum’. The food is made on site Delicious home made soup & shortbread

Well I love this place. Our lovely Belgian customers wanted to walk in the Peak District, starting at Hathersage station we walked over Eyam Moor and ended back at the cafe. Authentic Bakewell Pudding and good coffee pleased our guests. Getting served took a while and the prices are high, but it was much appreciated.

We had afternoon tea there and the food was first class and apart from the food, the shop and the...

I do like "Hidden Gem" and this one is certainly one. I have been to David Mellor visitor centre for...

This was only a coffee stop after visiting the David Mellor Shop but the coffee was great, the service quick and polite and of course being surrounded by such iconic design it must be one of the most interesting coffee stops anywhere.

Han sido las reuniones de amigos y familia aquí por muchos años encantador ambiente excelente comida, pero el personal no siempre es amable, no estoy seguro de por qué? Me di cuenta en nuestra última visita, los precios han aumentado considerablemente no volveremos lástima!

Mi tercera visita a este café de este año, y la última. Cada visita tiene peor. Hoy mi hija y yo llamé a mitad de la tarde esperando para tomar una taza de té y un trozo de tarta. Nos sentamos en el interior por 15 minutos y nos pueden haber sido invisible! Nadie llegó a decir incluso que sería con nosotros en breve 'a pesar del hecho de que ellos no estaban aún ocupados. No hace falta decir que nos levantamos y salimos. Mis otras dos visitas fueron en vano similar. Qué pena cuando este café muy atractiva y tienda puede conseguir su acto juntos y dar algo de buen servicio al cliente. Formación de Personal es sin duda el llamado.

Top quality cafe, great tour of the workshop, plenty spent in the shop.Friendly staff, lovely setting and super quality knives.Can sit outside cafe with dog.Make sure you visit and do the free tour.

A very interesting group of buildings, a very good shop and the cafe manages to be high quality but certainly the morning we went there delightfully run. Staff all seem confident and enthusiastic about where they work. The menu is open to a degree of flexibility, ask nicely and they keep the customer very happy!

We were a very large group (20) who had been walking and turned up to see if we could grab a sandwich lunch. There was enough seating outside so we began to sit down, only to be confronted by one of the waitresses who told us we should have booked and that the kitchen would struggle with our order. We tried to explain that we would have done if we'd had planned our lunch stop, we even asked if she would rather we left, but she said no, we could stay but then unfortunately kept coming back to us to tell us we should have booked and even put a slip in each bill to say you need to book with parties of 6 or more. If there hadn't been enough tables, we'd have moved on. Anyway, her worries about the kitchen coping were unfounded. Food was prompt and the sandwiches were filling which was just what we needed after our walk. The other staff were helpful. Maybe just got her on a bad day.

Only a small cafe but lovely selection of fresh stuff to choose from. Design theme continues in an airy space and staff great too!
