Holmebrook Valley Park Cafe in Chesterfield

Fabulous cafe with lovely staff and amazing food

Every time we come it’s either closed or there is nothing left. 3 full car parks on a Saturday and nothing was there to eat. I’d say it was nice to see it open for once but it really wasn’t.

Not seen the café or the Pavilion open for Months, each time I've been in the park it's been closed with the shutters down, Since Lockdown the park has been neglected with no park rangers on site, Last weekend we had a Radio Operators Gathering *Eyeball* and some folks was disappointed that the café was closed,

We got there just before 1pm, only muffins and flapjacks available on website said food served until 1:30 pm.

Love going here after a dog walk sittong outside at the benches. There is a nice little selection of cakes snd the bacon butties are great on a cool day. Do support this lovely welcoming cafe it is unpretentious. It is run by Annette pretty much on her own most of the time and she is a lovely welcoming person who works hard.

Lovely cafe. With a huge playing field. Park for the kids and a car park. You can walk here and take your dogs. Or enjoy a nice cuppa.

Lovely little cafe, gorgeous chocolate cake. be nice if they did more of a range of coffee, but anything is nice and warming on a chilly day.

Lovely, very friendly cafe to stop after a walk or just for lunch drinks or snacks. Definitely worth a visit

We have been a few times for drinks here sitting both inside and now, since the second lockdown, outside. I can recommend the home made scones to accompany a drink. All served with a friendly smile and word. I think there are ‘regulars’ at the cafe as well as new customers. The car park is just outside the cafe so you can sit at an outside table or in your car to drink/eat whilst there is no inside seating allowed. It is a very popular cafe and a children’s outside play area is only a few yards away.

Absolutely no complaints, was served by a very nice young bald gentleman who gave 5* service, credit to the owner for such a nice staff member

The cafe is a little bit dead, sometimes machines don't work but pastries and cakes can be nice also hardly open before covid let alone what it will be like after

Great place to eat and drink. Serve homemade scones, together with sausage rolls, pasties, sandwiches and during the summer bacon rolls. Run by friendly staff. Open now as a takeaway due to current rules etc. Always worth a visit. May not be open on rainy days.

Very friendly owner makes all feel welcome the coffee is very tasty

Great café in the park, friendly staff, good scones 👍

This is a really friendly little cafe and really good value. We had freshly cooked bacon sandwiches and they do decaf coffee. Excellent after a nice walk round the park. There is always plenty of parking unless there is a football competition occuring.

Lovely, friendly, family run cafe situated in a lovely country park. The perfect spot to enjoy a drink and homemade cake after your walk. There's also a wide variety of cooked foods available.

Just enjoyed visit to Holmebrook cafe .friendly helpful staff lovely coffee and freshly,baked scones as presented to HRH Prince Andrew on his visit to Holmebrook .If they good enough for Andy they will do for us !

Boy, i'll tell you since our last visit, how this place has changed. I went in with the Mrs for a breakfast and was told "we stop serving breakfast after one" and ANY other food after 1.30. Another workman came in and was told similar, and he like us went elsewhere.I wouldnt mind but they were stood around, arms folded, chopsing to one another and one woman in there came out to start gossiping with a younger woman with a baby who we assumed was her daughter.I mean it really wouldnt have been much imposition to them to do a quick fry up, but they just couldnt be arsed. Go elsewhere, as these women cant be bothered.

nice little cafe to have a snack and drink after a walk in the park dog walkers welcome very clean and tidy

A lovely cafe, with lovely friendly staff, I always call for a coffee and cake after I've taken our dog Dudley for a walk around the park....magic!

Excellent as always, love this place. Annette is amazing

Had a lovely mug of tea and a home made sausage roll. Highly recommended.

Visit often but never been able to go in always closed.... The park it's self is fantastic great for family day out

Great staff, atmosphere and cakes!

Another very satisfying meal for me and award winning scones for the rest of the family, We call here for the quality of the food, the value for money, and excellent service that could not be better. Full english with a drink £5.50 excellent! 2 scones and 2 teas £5 beautiful!Couple this together with a sunny day and a busy park with lots of activities going on, it's perfect.There are older folk playing boules one end of the park and a football match at the other, very busy with dog walkers, then you can stroll round the lake.This cafe tops off your visit with the scones to die for! A definte gem for Chesterfield. AAAAA++++++

Friendly cafe, very clean. Always warm and welcoming. Good food, responsible price. Very child friendly. Helpful staff. Big car park and outdoor play area opposite.

We t here after walking the dogs round Holmebrook. Good selection of food and sandwiches and snacks for the kids. They even leave water bowls out for the dogs which is a nice touch. My only gripe is they never have enough sausage rolls by the time i get there so the pups miss out.

Love this little cafe good food friendly and helpful staff a good place to stop and get a scone and a coffee when visiting this pleasant park on a nice day out. Especially welcoming to people with learning disabilities good parking Give it a try when you visit the park

Called in for a cream tea. Lovely clean and friendly cafe with very friendly and helpful staff.

Reasonable prices and good bacon butty! Decent enough cups as well. Small cafe with a decent amount of seating inside and outside.Dogs aren't allowed in...not sure why really sad as it isn't a law re food prep and dogs (many people do think this), but they are allowed outside in the seating area here.

Lovely little park lots of parking spaces and conveniences.

Really worth a visit. Spotlessly clean and the young lady serving was friendly and helpful. The food was nice and it was very calm and relaxing.

Good value, friendly service, informal atmosphere plus homemade scones.

Had a lovely coffee and delicious piece of home made lemon drizzle. Such a reasonable price. Cafe has nice clean tables inside and bench seats outside. Can’t take dogs in but they put a nice big bowl of water outside for the thirsty dogs.

Friendly staff serving warm cuppas and food....Toilets available. Families welcome. Cheap, reasonable prices..

Excellent cafe lovely staff good prices quick and home made

Great place to eat out with a group - good choice on menu and good Concession deals. Plenty of quiet corners or pull tables together for everyone to be in one group - lovely atmosphere.

Called in whilst their to watch nephew playing football its cheep cheerful and friendly the bacon was well cooked and very tasty ideal place for a quick snack

Whether you just uttie or a full english these ladies will suit you! Piping hot, and straight from the galley. All the local council lads feed here so that should tell you how good it is!

it is a bleak loooking place, not very clean, not at all inviting, the staff werenot interested in helping us or feeding us so we had a drink and left

Fabulous bacon and sausage butties and just what you need when stood watching kids football.... tea and coffee also fab!!

Very friendly staff, the food is really good , home made cakes are super, always nice freshly made cakes , well done ,

He visitado 4 veces pero sólo nos las arreglamos para conseguir algo de comer una vez. El café ha sido cerrado las otras tres veces que hemos visitado. Las tres veces que ha estado en la mitad del día durante la semana y el fin de semana. Parece que al azar cerca y abierto.

I often take my dog for her daily walk in the park, and also to pick fruit and sloes in September I call for a coffe n cake on the way back, always happy with the service. and nice place to sit and watch the children and their parents on the park. Some lovely walks round the park, its so nice to have a wildlife park on my doorstep so ineteresting to see the Owls, Hare and rabbits plus numerous birds, Just lovely.

Buena relación calidad-precio para los amantes del senderismo, deportes partícipes de los perros, folletos de avión de modelo, de hecho todo el mundo que quiera una taza rápida a un módico precio.

This is a favourite place of mine.The food is great, just like you would make at home, and just as cheap as making it at home! Cost me less than £13 for 4 of us, that was jacket potatoes, toasties and drinks!There is a good play area just across the car park too.I recommend this place to everyone!

Had a great breakfast here recently. Great food and a good portion size. Reasonably priced with friendly staff. Would definitely revisit.

Went with grandchildren,lovely scones and very pleasant people,lovely with children, very handy for play area for quick snack or sitting inside cafe.

Been here a few times now and would highly recommend the cafe to you. On a wet and windy Derbyshire day the warm welcome begins with the staff and is followed through with lovely home made food. The breakfast is good, or quiche and salad, jacket potatoes, toasties and home made soup. Just what you need to warm you up after a brisk walk around Holmebrook Valley Park. Saturday mornings are busy with lots of young footballers and their Dad's queueing for bacon cobs! There is always a great selection of scones and home made cakes which go down very nicely with a cup of milky coffee.Recommend you give it a try - play area for children on far side of the car park too.

Delicious home made scones, very reasonably priced. Slightly utilitarian decor, but bright, clean and friendly. Local Northern Tea Merchants coffee. Jacket potatoes, salad, soup and cooked breakfast (I didn't try these). Local artwork on display and views across the valley.

Holmebrook Valley Park CafeThis cafe can be found within the pavilion, overlooking the stunning views of parkland and futher afield into Chesterfield and the wider countryside. The tasty 'homemade menu' includes a plethora of homemade buns, cakes and scones, along with the usual snacks / meals etc I had a chunky steak pie / Jacket potato with Mushy peas and a separate mint sauce, Really nice. Chunky steak for only £4.75. Worth every penny.
