Edensor Tea Cottage in Derbyshire Dales

We have been a few times and always excellent service, beautiful food and good value. Your staff are a credit to you. The young lady (sorry didn't get her name) was helpful, very pleasant and made us feel very welcome. We will be back again soon.

Prompt service with delicious, fresh, tasty food! We sat outside in the sunshine with swallows flying overhead whilst enjoying a delicious cheese & ham sandwich plus a burger and chips. Very delicious food and salad was lovely and fresh. Thank you! Very nice lunch!

I called in for lunch whilst my mother was visiting us. So pleased I did. We ordered the soup of the day (carrot and coriander) and a cheese scone. Although the tea rooms were very busy - it was a bank holiday - we were seated promptly and our order taken. The food arrived shortly after, steaming hot soup, dressed perfectly with the most generous aroma and accompanied by a cheese scone as requested. It was hot and scrumptious. We both tucked in and expressed our delight at our choices. Bowls consumed my only disappointment was the realisation that I was too full to enjoy one of the amazing cakes on show, Reasonably priced, excellent quality and fabulous service. Well done.

Great place to stop for food when out walking at Chatsworth. Food is delicious, friendly staff, cosy atmosphere. Gets busy though and can't always get seated.

Had a family breakfast here for my husband's 70th birthday. All six of us agreed our meals were excellent. My daughter and myself had the vegetarian option which was absolutely delicious and cooked to perfection by the amazing chef. All the staff were wonderful and made my husband's birthday extra special . Really can't thank you all enough.

Had a fantastic afternoon Christmas tea here in very pleasant intimate surroundings served by friendly and helpful staff. All the food was perfect and at a very reasonable price. Unlimited tea. Highly recommended

Perfect little tea cottage, in the heart of the Chatsworth Estate at Edensor, which is a beautiful and very special little village. The staff could not have been more welcoming, we arrived early and they welcomed us in, out from the cold. Opens at 9.30am. We were shown to our table where we could wait in the warm whilst the team set up. Beautiful quirky building, with lots of character with some old traditional features. Lovely friendly staff, the food and service was fabulous. We couldn't fault a thing. I had one of the vegan options, and it was delicious, the rest of the party were just as thrilled with their choices and the service. I noticed some 1 star reviews and these are all mainly due to waiting at busy times, so really not deserved in my opinion! Faultless 10 out of 10 for a perfect service. Thank you to all the staff at Edensor, it was our first visit and we would highly recommend, and return if we were in the area.

What a little gem this place is, you shouldn’t miss out on this tea room, when either visiting Chatworth house or just in the local area. Such a warm welcome from all the staff and the atmosphere is so warm and cosy, particularly on a winters day. Service is first class and the food is so tasty. We’ve been many times, this time round we both had the Stilton and broccoli soap, wow how tasty with an excellent side of crusty warm multi grain bread. Thank you to all staff first class

Went for breakfast with friends were so pleased we did. Great selection of breakfasts made from local produce. Staff were friendly and professional. Would suggest booking to be sure of table. Good value and have no hesitation in recommending.

This is the first time we have visited and we will be back. We booked a festive afternoon tea and couldn't find a fault with anything. We had a warm welcome and the food was fantastic. We couldn't finish it all but they kindly boxed up what we couldn't finish and will tuck into it later.

We went for breakfast and took our dog with us, extremely friendly welcome and faultless service throughout. Our breakfasts and coffees were very tasty, i also asked for something not on the menu which was no bother at all. Beautiful little cafe worth a visit, we’ll definitely be back!!

We visited this place after a lovely walk through chatsworth park, and what a wonderful place! The management have truly made this a wonderful venue with superb decoration and furnishings. We had booked the autumn afternoon tea and it was absolutely delightful! The little soup cup was delicious to start and the sandwiches were soft and fresh. Following this we had scones and other little seasonal cakes (we had to take some home, which were kindly boxed up), all delicious. Our server Becky was brilliant and we felt really looked after, and the young lady who was the barista Queen (Holly) was also making sure we had plenty of tea. We will definitely be back as we live very local and would highly recommend to all.

We were staying locally and booked into the cottage for breakfast. We all four of us went for 'the works' which turned out to be as good a breakfast as you're likely to get anywhere both in terms of the quality of the produce and the way it had been cooked. Add in lovely surroundings and good service ... perfection!

What an absolute treasure of a Tea Room! Booked in for a pre birthday treat for my friend, we had the Autumn Afternoon Tea - plenty of pumpkin spice on the menu , the soup, sandwiches, cakes , service were all fabulous, can't fault anything, the staff are so welcoming without being intrusive. I would definitely recommend trying this place out, you won't be disappointed. Amazing.

Called in for coffee and cake whilst exploring the Chatsworth estate and enjoyed ourselves so much we returned for afternoon tea a few days later! The food quality is superb as is the cosy atmosphere. The waiting team are friendly, efficient, helpful and attentive. As a result of these qualities, the restaurant gets very busy especially at peak times so it is well worth booking to avoid disappointment. Thank you Sarah and team for providing such a memorable experience.

Looks a lovely place, travelled a distance to get here. A party of 5 for lunch....sadly the chef wasn't taking orders of hot food as he was too busy. Not really sure what they expect to happen at 1 pm. Was informed we could have cake or a sandwich. Or wait for 30 mins 'or so' until he was taking orders again! Hope they can continue to operate when turning away this amount of custom...

The lovely tea shop is located in a beautiful village Edensor and has its own parking for guests. The breakfast menu is a delight with excellent choice from traditional to modern and the food is excellent all served with lovely care and attention

I went for lunch just a sandwich on a Saturday. I waited and waited and!! you get the idea I left !

Stopped here before doing the Chatsworth circular walk. Friendly staff, quick service. We had coffees, one mushroom omelette and eggs benedict which were both excellent.

OMG why have I never been here before? Super little (actually not so little inside) tearoom with a fantastic selection for breakfast, brunch, lunch, afternoon tea or just a quick cuppa. A few outside tables but you have to go inside even if it’s just to see the thickness of the walls! I only had a tea cake and a cuppa… well a huge teapot full of the best tasting tea I’ve had in a long time. Very friendly service and the prices are good value too. Didn’t really want to post a review as I would like to keep this place a secret. On the way out noticed there was limited parking but if you have to park in the village please be very respectful of the residents. Hope to return very soon. 😀

Good food and great service. Had to wait a little while for a table inside out of the rain. Busy as last week of school summer break

Friendly welcome and service, but very slow. The tea was good but I had to ask for hot water. The spoons were very cheap canteen-type ones. We shared a scone, it had been warmed up but seemed a little stale. The jam was a bit...

Really lovely lunch with my friend. Excellent local sourced food, reasonable price for the quality. Can get very busy so Id recommend booking and parking can be tricky as only a small carpark for patrons. Good prompt service even though it was busy. beautiful setting.

Family afternoon tea for Mum's 95th birthday. Lovely food, friendly helpful staff. Really pleased we chose the Tea Cottage

What a beautiful quaint cosy tea room! I had the gluten free afternoon tea which was amazing! The bread was so soft and the variety of different cakes was a lovely change! It all tasted to lovely I can highly recommend. The staff were lovely...

We had a fabulous Afternoon Tea, in cosy surroundings, served by friendly and helpful staff. The sandwiches were tasty (bread very soft) and the sweet cakes and treats a delight - lovely selection and delicious. It was real value for money and we will definitely...

We've visited the tea room a few times recently and have found the service quick and friendly every time. We don't currently have a dog ourselves but had noticed on one visit a dedicated doggy cabinet. We were kept entertained watching someone else's dog enjoying...

Great little tea room in the beautiful village of Edensor on the Chatsworth estate. After a walk around the estate we had a fabulous breakfast with the best cup of tea we have had in ages. Great friendly staff and prompt efficient service. Highly recommend...

Very nice place with the most friendly staff i’ve ever come across. The food was good and the atmosphere was pleasant, if you’re in Chatsworth give The Tea Cottage a visit.

We attended for afternoon tea last week. As a family we could not fault the booking service, service on arrival to the tea rooms at all. A very prompt tea. Very friendly. Our drinks order was taken then out after tea arrived. We were informed...

I visit Edensor several times a week and visit this little place regularly with my dogs, friends and family. However, today was a bad experience. I turned up with my husband and two dogs, got a seat, looked at the menu. It was just after...

Afternoon cream tea at Endensor tea room was not a good experience, to start with we were ignored, a couple who arrived 10 minutes after us had their drinks and food before we were asked for our drinks order, then the afternoon cream tea arrived,...

Pleasant cafe in beautiful Edensor. First time here and the coffee was good, interior of cafe lovely and outside tables welcome. Did not eat on this occasion but the menu and food we saw looked appetising, and the almost-resident jackdaw provided a bit of outside...

On a beautifully sunny day, a stop at the tea room was an absolute delight. Everyone had something different, and everything was beautifully presented and was of excellent quality. The staff were very friendly, and the service service was impeccable. We would definitely recommend this...

My husband and I visited the tea rooms with my cousin’s wife. We hadn’t booked but we’re able to have a table for just over an hour as it was booked at 1pm. The staff were all very pleasant and we all had the tomato...

After a walk from Baslow to Edensor, the staff are helpful and kind, speedy with the orders of good local produce. We regularly book a table, for opening, and haven’t been dissatisfied. The in house compote is an great alternative to jam, Edensor village is...

We live local and have been to most of the local cafes for breakfast. This definitely rates up there with the best! I had a simple omelette (with mushroom, spinach, tomatoes and cheese) and a slice of granary toast. The spinach and mushrooms were visible...

We had a lovely afternoon tea, there was a variety of lovely sandwiches, and amazing cakes, the staff were so friendly and helpful, they also have a great menu, definitely worth a visit.

I had the Edensor platter and loved every bit of this healthy meal. And I don't think it was due to being hungry after a 3 hour walk round Chatsworth. We also had a cake and tea, and the teapot served at least three cups...

My first afternoon tea in this lovely cottage. Everything was spot on, my veggie option was delicious and must say them own fruit compote was the best part of it! I would prefer more savoury than sweet plates, but it was fantastic anyway. We are...

EXCELLENT…favourite place, outstanding customer service, delicious food, amazing place.. would highly recommend

When you run out of superlatives for a café....this place is EVERYTHING! Friendly staff, welcoming atmosphere, tasty original menu from a range of local suppliers in the most beautiful location. Nothing is too much trouble for this team. All the staff really know how to...

As a family of nine adults with three small children, we booked Easter Sunday breakfast at the Ednesor Tea Cottage. Beautiful location, venue and service by the team who made us so welcome. Food was delicious, sourced locally and excellent value for money.Great menue offering...

Fabulous. Great menu, food was good. Staff very friendly. Gorgeous location. We drove 1.5 hours for a wee family reunion, the tearoom was perfect.

Lovely scones and tea on a quick afternoon pitstop. Waitress was friendly and the venue was cozy. The cakes looked amazing!!

Beautiful tearoom, very attentive and friendly Staff. The afternoon tea was one of the best I've ever had. It was perfect; extremely filling and very delicious, the ingredients were very fresh, a lot of it homemade even down to the jam that I am sure...

Outstanding cafe. The only defect is that they allow dogs into the eating areas indoors which causes noise and disturbance in addition to being a recognised public health hazard.

We booked in for lunch prior to visiting Chatsworth House at Christmas. We were very impressed with the interior and food was excellent. We all had sandwiches which were served on large fresh rolls with a small tasty side salad & slaw. Very generously filled...

Visited with family for an afternoon tea Excellent choice of savoury and sweet treats … and lovely scones too Friendly and helpful staff One of the best afternoon teas we’ve all had and would highly recommend

I booked afternoon tea for a friends birthday. There were 3 of us in our group, I phoned up to book a table and pay the deposit. During the call I asked about vegan options, it was explained they don’t do vegan afternoon tea yet...

Had the afternoon tea today after a browse around Chatsworth Xmas market. A beautiful tea rooms with friendly staff and marvellous food. Couldn’t fault the selection of freshly made sandwiches and pastries and the sultana and cinnamon scones were top notch. Will definitely be visiting...

Came across this cafe on a walk from Bakewell. Busy but thankfully a table available. I ordered the mushroom soup and my wife cheese and chive scone with smoked salmon. Meals, coffees and whole experience excellent. Would go back again.

Found this by chance whilst walking back from Bakewell to Baslow. We only had coffee and cake/scone but it was a lovely place, we sat outside on a beautiful clear autumn day and enjoyed it. Very friendly staff who were very busy but still had...

We visited the Edensor tea cottage with our dog to try the recently changed menu. The street food style chip butty and quiche were both delicious. Previously we'd had burgers, eggs florentine, afternoon teas and scones which were all great too- the scones are probably...

Early morning stop today for breakfast. Lovely tasty food and good portions. Really friendly staff who looked after us, also asking if we had any dietary requirements. Nice decor inside and very clean.

I’ve enjoyed Edensor Tea Cottage for breakfast, lunch or just a cake stop whilst walking. This week I went for lunch with family and we were not disappointed. Whilst working hard the staff were very friendly. We were spoilt for choice on the new menu,...

Great coffee, great cake and great place. Can be difficult to park so always satisfying to walk from elsewhere. Tables inside or outside and we found it nice and cool inside on our last visit. Cakes are different and tasty. Staff are friendly but keep...

We had a nice coffee and a huge piece of a delicious cake in this wonderful small village close to Chatsworth. Lovely place!

We have not had such a fantastic afternoon tea in a long time. What a beautiful afternoon tea it was! All of the sandwiches, cakes, savoury and sweet scones were fresh and super tasty! The selection of teas was wonderful. A real treat! Thank you...

Have been to this place many times and always the same lovely service and food. We called in to have breakfast after a walk to Chatsworth and the staff were so lovely. Will definitely be coming back!

My partner is a chef himself and it is important to him that when we go out for food it is as good as or better than he can do himself, this was most certainly the case. We had breakfast here and we could really...

Whilst walking around Chatsworth was told about this place and decided to visit. Edensor is very picturesque and the tea room fits in perfectly. Food was superb, staff very friendly and welcoming in a beautiful setting.

Lovely little cafe in a great pretty location! Visited while on a walk and stumbled across it, ordered hot drinks and a cake each. Would recommend if in the area :)

Excellent breakfast and beautiful cakes. Staff are lovely and work very hard. My little boy loves coming here, it's his favourite place to go!

Just superb and will go back soon - cannot wait. fantastic menu to suit everyone. Cannot beat it and very special experience

Had avocado and poached egg on toast. Very disappointing as one small egg and not much avocado, nothing like the picture. Should be done better for the price

Had several lunches and teas here and never been disappointed. The staff are charming. The specials of the day have always been good

I have visited this tea room before when it was less busy. We had booked a table for a weekday visit. After our main course, we looked in the cabinet and decided on a cake selection. However after another 15 minutes or so the waitress...

A good menu for all dietary requirements. Lots of desserts too! We had the soup, vegan smash and a side order of chips...fantastic chips! The staff were lovely, attentive and efficient. Will definitely go again.

Mainly stopped here for coffee and cake. Parking places are few in the village but worth walking over from Chatsworth. The website says “Here at The Edensor Tea Cottage, our daily goal is to deliver great food, with a very warm and friendly service.” and...

We have visited a few times over the last year. If you want to get a table inside then it is best to book, especially at the weekend when it always seem to be very busy. Limited menu but nice food nicely served. Sometimes there...

We have lunched here a number of times on a 10 mile circuit around Bakewell - it never fails- great service, speed and choice- we are always looked after… today was outside lunch in the sunshine- soup, sandwiches and chips all basic’s but done well-...

We treated ourselves to an afternoon tea to celebrate my wife's birthday. She chose it after hours of research, and it was a lovely location, with friendly and helpful staff - and, overall, it was good value for money. We were both full after it,...

We dropped for coffee which grew to a bacon & sausage cob & a peanut butter blonde. The cob was well filled and the blonde excellent. Great menu & wonderful choice of cakes, vegan & gluten free. Staff were very helpful & friendly. Cosy tearooms...

Lovely tea rooms, friendly staff. We sat outside and had a coffee and cake each as a break on our walk, the cakes were delicious and the coffee was lovely, would definitely recommend!

Absolutely fab service thank you ladies….nothing was too much trouble to accommodate our dog making our experience and that of others so much more relaxing and enjoyable. The food was good home cooked fare which was well presented and very tasty. A first visit of...

Walked out. The waitress never came to serve us. Very disappointed and spoke to quite rudely on arrival.

A beautiful little restaurant great service polite staff but on receiving my order of beans on toast very disappointed to see just a small ramekin of beans that barely filled one slice of ordinary bread …. and not the bloomer advertised such a shame

Lovely visit today. Food was great, really tasty sandwich with a lovely fresh salad and yummy coleslaw. We really enjoyed it. Good value too, we thought! And such friendly staff. A nice treat. We will be back!!

I left a review in April and had a counter review about it being a difficult time in Spring for hospitality. We’re now November and it’s still slow to get a tea, coffee and 2 takeaways breakfast ‘cobs’. To put into context, 9:30 on a...

I met my friend at Edensor for a walk . We had a coffee in the tea rooms. Service was very friendly and efficient plus the coffee was great too. We were some of the first people in the cafe but by the time we...

This is a great little English tearoom in the tiny and beautiful village of Edensor. We visited twice on a recent holiday and the service was very friendly and efficient. There are some lovely tables outside and in the courtyard and the menu is wide...

Gorgeous food and lovely staff!!!!!! Nothing to fault….had eggs benedict and a cappuccino and I could have eaten it twice!

Dog friendly cafe with a delicious vegan friendly breakfast. Will come again. We arrived at 9am and managed to get away without a booking. I think it would be difficult otherwise. Veggie sausages were homemade and the tastiest I've ever eaten. 😋

Used to visit here a lot under previous owners and was apprehensive about returning. Met as a group of friends! Lovely food, excellent service and even though the tea cottage was busy we didn’t have to wait long for drinks or meals which were great...

Excellent lunch. We were made to feel very welcome. The food was nicely presented and an excellent menu to choose from. Will definitely recommend to friends travelling in the area.

We walked over from the Caravan and Motorhome park for a breakfast treat. We were not disappointed. We were greeted by a friendly team. Service was with a smile and was extremely thorough and efficient. We both ordered the large breakfast. It was huge! We...

We visited Edensor Tea Rooms last week for a post-Chatsworth Afternoon Tea. It was a perfect end to the day. The staff were super friendly, the cafe was super pretty and the food was super tasty. Our table was ready for us on arrival, there...

We had not been here for over 20 years. It does not seem as grand as we remembered it with high prices. It was a challenge getting here as we came through Manchester total nightmare.

Had a lovely visit yesterday, received such a warm welcome. Enjoyed a break from travel soaking up the friendly atmosphere. Didn’t have time for lunch but so wish we had - the food looked delicious. Highly recommend and will make a point to visit again...

Beautiful location near Chatsworth, old building with character and delicious food, village worth exploring and you can walk into the grounds of the palace from here

Very nice scones Stoped by after visiting Chatsworth House and this is the closest one It being a bit drizzly it wasn’t busy but we had to sit outside which was fine under their big parasols Very nice warm scones and very reasonably priced A...

Given a lockdown makeover and better than ever. Fantastic service and great food. If you are very lucky you might find a parking place nearby but we usually walk over from Chatsworth or Baslow. Seating inside and out.

We went here for our lunch and didnt book beforehand. However, they managed to find a table for us and the staff were so helpful and friendly. The food was amazing, will definitely be returning for the afternoon tea with my mum.

We have visited the tea room many times over the years and have always been more than happy with the service and food quality, we don’t mind paying for good quality but unfortunately our visit today has been a real disappointment, we ordered a ploughman’s...

On a walk from Bakewell to Chatsworth, we came across this delightful cafe in a very picturesque setting. Service was excellent- friendly and quick, and the food was fantastic. Highly recommended. Thank you!

We ordered 2 hot drinks and 2 breakfast sandwiches, extremely slow service, wrong drinks were lukewarm, arrived way before food that took 35 minutes to arrive by which time drinks were cold. The breakfast sandwiches were only 2 sausages and 2 eggs so the wait was extreme, they had only been open 15 minutes so numbers of customers wasn’t the issue. When the corrected the drinks they offered complimentary cakes, but they never arrived. Very dissapointed. There’s no competition in the village, only 1 place to eat so seems potentially complacent.

We called at the cafe this afternoon. We ordered cheese and chutney on granary but were told granary was sold out, so accepted white. When it arrived we were very disappointed to see a small, extremely low quality, white roll. The salad was OK but overall this was very poor value for £6.95. You would expect a good bakery type roll not the cheapest of supermarket type for this price.The service was good and the staff were friendly.

We had a marvelous lunch quich for my hubby I had seabass. It was wonderful for us both. Far better than a 2 AA restaurant we eat at on Saturday night. Well organied lovely service and a chef that can cook and present fish really well price and quality was all really good Thank you

This is a great little place for breakfast and located a few minutes walk from Chatsworth House. Food was excellent, staff were friendly and we enjoyed sitting in the courtyard with our 2 dogs. Highly recommended!
