Marsh Green Farm Shop Cafe in North East Derbyshire

friendly service, wonderful surroundings, top quality products, on-site cafe, delicious products! I recommend 100%

What a choice of home cooked food. Love it!!!

Baroness little finger was there for tea and biscuits yesterday, no sign of duchess big plate.

Great place to enjoy breakfast or meet for coffee/tea. Lovely, friendly serving ladies take care of your orders. Cakes, pastries and delicious treats on sale in the little grocery shop. Well worth a visit.

Our family decided to have breakfast here...and what a great decision it was. The staff was very friendly, we received excellent service alongside some gorgeous breakfast dishes before we headed over to the farm shop to buy some goodies. The breakfast was absolutely amazing, nice golden brown hash browns (I am really picky about my hash browns) crispy bacon, perfectly done fried eggs....in general it was a really nice Full English.

Very good food at affordable prices.

First visit to marsh green we had a full English breakfast and it was absolutely delicious quality ingredients a pleasant atmosphere great staff a pleasant experience 😁

We went to the Valentines event on the evening of Feb 14th and this was a huge success. The menu had fantastic options, the food was delicious and it was great to see every table filled. Price was very reasonable too. We would like to see Marsh Green host more evening events like this in future! The team should be very proud.

Food absolutely fantastic as was the service. Beef burger and breakfast were wonderful in presentation and quality taste.

Had a lovely lunch with my Mum and Sister. The staff were friendly and the food was fabulous. I would highly recommend the flatbreads - I had the lamb one which was delicious. The fish and chips was also excellent. There is a lovely farm shop with a good range of product available. Will definitely be visiting again.

Delicious breakfast, nicely cooked, friendly staff. Will definitely return again when visiting the area. Nice farm shop as well

Stopped here for a nice lunch. Had a Pulled Pork and Cheese panini, which was very filling and fairly substantial for the price. All food was of good quality. Was not a long wait after our food order was taken and the service was friendly. I would recommend and would likely visit again.

We had two families (8 people and a dog) for lunch and the whole experience was great. Warm welcome from the staff, great atmosphere and really nice home cooked food! I had the pie and would recommend. We took the opportunity to build a couple of Christmas hampers from the shop - great selection of goodies for my parents! Well done all - will definitely be back.

Used to be a lovely cafe and well stocked shop but, unfortunately, no longer the case.

Disappointed when breakfasts arrived without a hash brown as listed on menu. When questioned, waitress advised had ran out. Once our order had hit the kitchen and you realised you were out of hash browns I would have expected someone to let us know and offer us an alternative item. This did not happen. Can only assume you were hoping we would not notice the missing item. After I pointed out the missing hash brown and asked if I could have another item in its place, I was only offered mushrooms, which I politely declined as I don't like them. You happily charged us full-price for our incomplete breakfasts even after we mentioned it again to the chap who rang it through the til. Customer service needs improvement if you want repeat business

Lovely selection of drinks and cakes.

Nice food, nice cafe but the sausage were very tough, couldn't bite through the skin! Husband is coeliac, but they sent out his gluten free breakfast then said it had been cooked in the same pan as gluten-containing items so had to send it back. Waiting staff all very good.

Excessive waiting times , had to ask for our cakes , so we could have them with our drinks. Toast arrived with no knifes , so again had to ask. Also had to inform what I had ordered , when paying ! Disorganised and slow service and this is not the first time.

Really lovely farm cafe and shop with great vegetarian options. Especially liked the veggie full english!

Called for lunch on Monday 13th November. We both chose a bacon, Brie and cranberry panini and requested that the bacon was crispy as neither of us liked uncooked fat. When the food arrived most of the fat had been cut off. What remained was virtually raw. Very little Brie and cranberry inside, plus there was one small strip of bacon inside one half of both paninis. We complained to a very pleasant waitress who left to consult with the manager. We were told the kitchen had cut off all the fat, which they hadn’t, and that the bacon was put into the panini raw (pre prepared we were told) and was then cooked on a sandwich toaster. Regardless of the fact we had left the majority of the paninis we were charged full price. The manager didn’t show his face and left it to the embarrassed waitress. Obviously won’t be returning.

Absolutely lovely place to eat with great staff. Their vegetarian options are great, I had the veggie breakfast and couldnt complain!

Smashed avocado, tomato salsa and poached egg for breakfast. Can’t fault, lovely food cooked fresh. Coffees are great too - lovely little spot.

Amazing breakfast!!!! Best in North Derbyshire!!! Gorgeous local produce, cooked to perfection. Friendly staff and beautiful rural setting.

Pulled into this little place today and stopped for food the food was excellent and very friendly service After speaking with the staff was told that the new owner had only recently taken over this cafe well for someone that Been in the catering business for over 30 year and no how challenging these time are currently I wish you every success the food is excellent and will be revisiting again soon to sample breakfast

We travel 20 minutes regularly for an all day breakfast mostly. We work night shifts so an afternoon breakfast was ideal. Breakfast no longer served all day so had the burger. The burger was yummy but sadly other little bits let our visit down, like forgetting our cheese off the burger, no longer comes with coleslaw. Cup of tea is now standard teabags and we used to enjoy the proper tea leaves. Staff were friendly but didn’t seem confident in what they were doing yet. The new menu is disappointing, seems to offer less but for more money, we always said the old menu should of been a pound or two more, but not more for less food and options. We sadly won’t be making the journey to travel anymore. So sad this has changed, from one of our favourite places to a very average experience.

I've visited over half a dozen times in the last 12 months and this is the first time under the new ownership and how disappointed we were. The menu is a third of the size of the old one which has lost all of the fantastic pies and pastries. Prices have increased dramatically for smaller portions and less quality ingredients. The breakfast is no longer served all day. The burger is now only a single burger which is no longer served with bacon or coleslaw. We booked for a Saturday lunch as we know how busy this place can be and it was half empty as it looks like all the regulars have already abandoned ship as its lost all its charm. This was a little gem where many regulars would travel miles as its a little out the way but unfortunately I won't be returning as its now average at best. Such a shame.

Although the food took a while to come out, the staff were incredibly friendly and sympathetic. Love the food too, been a few times in the past month.

Well where do I begin bad service only brought 1 lot of food when 2 of us gave us tepid tap water when asked for 2 still waters from the fridge food not as good as it was before it changed

Visited a week ago booked for 11 30 so we could have late breakfast or early lunch.we arrived at 11 20 and as it was busy opted for eggs royale and scrambled egg and salmon .Drinks arrived after a while however it took until 12 .20 for the food which wasn’t as before eggs royale the ham was thinner unlike before s substantial piece of ham on the side which was lovely .The staff were lovely especially the dark haired girl who tried her best and obviously busy so may be teething troubles .

Shame it's changed owners, went for breakfast on Saturday. Price has gone up and no way as good as before. True to menu description or 1 mushroom, 1 hash brown, 1 sausage. Used to love the diced potatoes. Also only normal tea bags, instead of leaf tea in China cups as before, sadly will not be going again.

I’m not sure why new owners would change such a successful eatery? Slimmed down menu, breakfast menu only before 12 noon, prices up considerably and if I’m not mistaken new staff which weren’t great. The menu didn’t include the lasagne, very little choice unless you wanted a sandwich with crisps for the price of a main meal with previous owners. You’re missing a trick with timing of breakfast, previously you’d see groups of younger people enjoying a good value breakfast after 12 noon and I’m sure you’ll lose custom over this. Prices have shot up and I know you’ve done a lot to the site but don’t make loyal customers take the hit. The fish and chips were very nice but my partner had the goats cheese salad and I’m sorry but what a rip off! Not worth the price, not a lot on the plate. All in all you’ve changed so much that we won’t be returning which is sad because we’ve been very regular customers but with points raised above it’s not worth the drive out anymore. I’m really not sure you’d change things so much, one previous review said “if it’s not broke why fix it? “ and they’re bang on. Hope I’m wrong but time will tell.

Delicious and great quality sausage rolls at £2 each, with a variety of flavours. Milkshakes were also very tasty!

My Mum is Gluten Free and had lots of choice even Fish and Chips which is unheard of in a lot of places. She chose the burger for a changed and loved it. My Dad had the pie which had lots of filling in. He asked for Mushy peas instead of the salad and the staff were very happy to adapt the dish for him. Me and my Son had the Fish and Chips which was very nice and filling. My daughter had the kids Pasta which she loved and was a plentiful portion. We will definately be back again as there are lots of other dishes I would love to try.

Went to the cafe. Ordered two sausage and bacon rolls. £12.40 wow I thought more that’s more than London prices. Being a farm shop I was expecting something edible and special at the price . Absolutely appalling what I received one piece of fatty bacon rind left on and steamed more than grilled or fried. and one cheap sausage cut in half which looked microwaved I’m all for supporting local business but that’s probably the worst cooked breakfast roll I’ve had whilst traveling in the UK. Save your money and your tastebuds and go elsewhere. Will never go back

What a beautiful little place....the staff were absolutely lovely, extremely friendly. The food was honestly the best we have had in a long time. The chocolate milkshake was to die for! And as for the produce in the farm shop...it was nice to see such a variety of different items. We will be visiting again!

Welcome to the lovely smiley new owners of Marsh Green. Excellent selection of delicious and very different pies & pasties We shall be back often😋 & wish you every possible success.

This was at the top of our list of places to eat now it's crossed off altogether. The food was always delicious, plentiful and a good price but not anymore. There are no pies, fish and chips or jacket potatoes on the main menu. Lots of items included bread which I don't eat. We asked for a homity pie and a meat pie which weren't on the menu. They did agree to cook them for us then charged us £3 per meal more than we paid the last time we ate here. Why this staggering increase? It's a farm shop cafe stop ripping off your customers. Such a shame that a once great little homely cafe with fabulous food has been taken over and changed into a run of the mill expensive cafe. The breakfasts here were superb but looking at the prices now I wouldn't pay it. Today it cost us over £30 for two pies salad(mine was gritty) one portion of chips and two coffee's. This would have cost us around £24 only a few months ago. The three stars are for the staff and coffee which was good. Because of the menu and price increases which are around £30% we won't be back.

Me and my husband had a lovely lunch today. We have been before and the menu is definitely smaller but our lunch tasted very fresh and well cooked. We had ham, egg and chips and fishcakes which were gluten free. We were happy to see so many gluten free options. The table next to us had pie and chips which smelt amazing but we didn't see on the menu, so we will be back to try these. The coffee was excellent and much improved and the slice of cake huge and great value. The staff were as lovely as last time and the place looked clean and new. I appreciate people don't like change but we welcomed some new inspiration. Maybe a slightly bigger choice (specials board maybe) would keep everyone happy. The farmshop was interesting and we took home some unusual things to try.

My last review was 5* but unfortunately the whole menu has been slimmed down and changed for the worse. There are now none of the delicious pies or quiches that were our favourite. Fish and chips, the chicken with stilton sauce and the homemade lasagne (all superb!) also disappeared, along with the all day breakfast. Instead of all meals being served all day there are now specific times for breakfast and lunch. The only salad was goat cheese, the cake selection is much smaller and we struggled to find anything we wanted so we drank our warm (not hot this time) latte and left. We won’t be returning :(

Have been here several times for lunch. To have Jacket potato with various delicious fillings usually. Sadly these had gone from the new menu. I'd have liked smashed avocado but sadly that was only on the breakfast menu. I ordered a salmon and cream cheese sandwich, which was okay but the filling was not very cold. The salad on the side had a very gritty bit which put me right off eating the rest. Prices have gone up too. If you are coeliac you would struggle to find something suitable now that no jackets. On the plus side the staff and environment are nice and the food was quickly prepared and drinks were ok.

This was our favourite local breakfast/brunch/lunch/ tea and cake stop. Only 10 minutes from home. First visit on their opening day. Breakfast now 25% dearer. I didn't bother asking if they allow substitutions. They have demarcated the breakfast and lunch menus either side of 12pm. I'd have like a lunch menu item but was too early. This was never a problem before. The drinks came well after the food. I'll come back to try a couple of lunch menu items. The Avocado smash was well prepared but rather mean. A rather poor start. We have a lot of other places we enjoy but Marsh Green is unlikely to go back to number one.

We live not far away from marsh green and it's always one of them places we drive past and think ohh we should call in and never do... so the other day we called in. My god its amazing! The best place for breakfast around...

The staff are always friendly and welcoming and there is a good selection of produce laid out and well presented in the shop. The café is amazing, great food and a good choice. Portion size is equal to my 17 stone, the cake is wonderful and the diet has to miss out just for one day! Per week! Don't have the Ploughman's unless you have an appetite.

A long standing and very good farm shop with a cafe attached. Good quantity of tables inside and outside. Dogs are welcome. The food in the cafe is brilliant. We certainly weren’t disappointed. They are currently expanding so we hope it’ll get even better.

We had a great breakfast here. Freshly cooked local produce great tasting breakfast. This cafe is great value for money. We will definitely be returning!!

Ex cellent choice of good quality meats,pies and home baking.great friendly staff. Super farm shop

Great food and lovely helpful staff. The cakes and pies are amazing and not over priced. It's a 15 mile deviation on my Friday 100 mile journey and can truly state that I look forward to the journey just because of Marsh Green, well done everyone involved.

Really lovely place! A lot of seating inside and out, lots of choice of food and all is super yummy. We had to wait a long time for a drink then the food on a Saturday morning but assumed this was the reason, didn’t look...

Excellent food, service and setting. However the same cannot be said for the cleanliness of the skirting, ledges and woodwork of the cafe. I would not like to hazard a guess as to when any of it was last cleaned. Given that they get so much right about the business to fail so hopelessly on such a major part of a food and retail establishment beggars belief. It didn't detract from my meal but come on, surely you can afford to employ a cleaner.

Marsh Green farmshop and cafe is an excellent place to stop off for your weekly groceries. It also has a great café where you can enjoy a nice cup of coffee, a pot of tea, snacks and full meals. They do an all-day breakfast, full English and vegetarian options and you can buy fish and chips there too.

Fab food, hearty portions, lovely relaxed atmosphere. Great tea, their Welsh rarebit is phenomenal.

What a great find! Amazing Welsh Rarebit. Great service.

Came here after visiting Matlock farm park which is just down the road. What a fantastic little find. The food was so good and there was plenty of choice. Not too expensive either. My sister had pate on toast and I had a bacon sandwich....

Lovely place to visit, delicious food and the staff were absolutely brilliant. Even when it was absolutely full to bursting, the staff were very attentive and looked after everyone so well. Will definitely be back

Cafe was fine (although we felt the welcome was rather unfriendly). The main issue was the quality of the cheese behind the counter: it was incredibly dried out!

Best English breakfast I've tried. All home made and quality ingredients. Highly recommend

Excellent breakfast and good staff

Called in for lunch and greeted with a nice welcome. We had excellent service from the young ladies and I ordered pie with new potatoes and veg. The meal was good except for the carrots served with it. They were tasteless and rubbery - I...

This is local to us but this covers out first visit for lunch. POSITIVES Quality of the food (Welsh rarebit & cheese and chutney sandwich) Portions - more than adequate, representing good value for money. Prices - very reasonable. Coffee still less than the dreaded...

This is a great place to eat with quality food served and friendly staff the shop is also very interesting

Lovely little farm shop and cafe. We were lucky today as there were three calfs in the cow shed 😍 so beautiful! I chose the Lasagne and omg, it was so good. Best homemade Lasagne I have probably ever had. Great selection of pies and cakes to take home with you. Staff are friendly and efficient.

This small cafe is fast becoming our go to place to eat. The full english breakfasts are enormous and absolutely delicious. We have had the steak and ale pie, the hommity pie, mushrooms on toast nd their scones which are warm on arrival. Everything is...

Marsh Green is an interesting place, to say the least. The cafe has some great things going for it, but it has a few issues as well. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, but the place can get a bit noisy, especially on weekends when...

Had a drive out to visit Marsh Green following recommendation, did not know you needed to book so was disappointed to be told fully booked in the cafe and no further assistance offered.

What a gem of a cafe. Generous, fair-priced, well-cooked meals from an extensive menu served by friendly waiting staff who couldn't do enough for us. So glad we finally called in!

I called for breakfast on Saturday morning . Food lovely but the service was very poor . Not enough staff . Poor girls serving were run off their feet . Had to wait for cutlery when breakfast arrived and had finished eating before drinks arrived . . Real shame as this has put us off going again

Nice tea and cake. Very friendly staff.

Lovely food large portions small prices good quality. Staff very nice.

We used to come here almost weekly for either breakfast or lunch after a run or walk with the dogs. We also supported Marsh Green throughout lockdown with takeaways. However over the last 18months we feel that standards have slipped in terms of food quality...

Fourteen members of Darley Dale WI had a very enjoyable lunch. The staff were friendly and efficient. Everyone's meal was served at the same time and was of a very high quality. Would gladly recommend the cafe

Super leckeres Essen. Sehr große Portionen, sei es beim Kuchen oder beim Mittagessen. Alles "Homemade". Absolut empfehlenswert.

Wonderful breakfast and great coffee

As we arrived about 6 workmen were just leaving having stopped for breakfast. The friendly, obliging staff quickly cleared the tables (we stayed downstairs) and wiped them clean very thoroughly. We decided to try the full English ourselves, two generous slices of bacon, a sausage,...

All good, excellent food and service. We had the breakfast which was perfectly cooked and really generous and the staff all seemed happy.

Fantastic breakfast, cooked well, pleasant staff. Bit crowded and noisy at times in upstairs dining area.

Nice coffee lovely food though a little pricey will go again

We came for breakfast, it was busy with a nice atmosphere. The staff are very busy serving in the shop/deli counter and the cafe but are very friendly. Upstairs in the cafe is fairly cosy, the condiment bowls were filthy with dried beans and goodness...

We have eaten here a few times now, the food is delicious, lovely homemade pies,quiches, soup sandwiches, all day breakfast, all good quality, good prices .and served by very friendly helpful staff. They are licensed too.

Top class farm shop, excellent range of quality foods and beverages, especially impressed by the butchery

excellent food and service and very reasonable prices .the shop is also worth a visit. will return soon

Great lunch today with our grandson (3). They do an all day breakfast which was great and our little one demolished his sausage, chips and beans Then of course there are the delicious cakes which we took home for tea (11 different on offer). Lovely staff to make it a perfect lunch out.

Excellent food,lovely helpful staff & a wonderful farm shop.

We visit quite regularly as the home cooked food here is excellent. The pies and quiches are great with really good homemade pastry and the soups are tasty. The light tempura style batter on the fish is heavenly and the chips are lovely and dry.

Really nice food and good service I wish I lived closer

Came here for a visit today with my mum & sister. Proper leaf tea and to die for ginger & orange cake, yum yum. Staff lovely and spent some money in the farm shop too!

Been here many times, always enjoyed the food, service etc.. Until our most recent visit, we just fancied a cheese scone with a bit of chutney, which we got.. the scones aren't homemade and the chutney was sandwich pickle, we asked if it was the same price as the cream tea option - which includes jam and cream, but no we were charged an extra £1.20 for a shop bought scone and sandwich pickle!! I queried this and was told that the cheese scones cost more than the ones included on the cream tea!! We were going to purchase items in the deli and the shop but decided to spend our money elsewhere and won't be visiting again, very disappointed as we have supported this business over the last 5 years.

Went foe the first time today lovely food and lovely staff

Went for lunch with my husband. The good was very nice but would have preferred my ham salad on a plate rather than a wooden chopping board. The table we sat at was for 2 people and we only had room for the cutting boards and a drink each. This was after moving the condiments etc. The service was slow and it wasn't very busy. Not sure we would go back

Had a gorgeous toastie with fresh crisp salad and coleslaw and a lovely cold glass of wine, staff are lovely and attentive even though they were very busy. Got some produce from the shop (salads and pasties) looking forward to trying these. Can't wait to visit again. Thank-you.

This cafe serves excellent food. The shop has plenty of choice of fresh fruit and vegetables as well as cakes and pies. Having visited before I was disappointed to find the toilets were dirty, a toilet seat loose and no hand drier working. The cafe...

Excellent full English with veggie options. Live close so pop in every so often, definitely recommend

The farm shop has a small but high quality selection of produce as well as an excellent cafe area with excellent home made pies, flans and cakes. There is a great Family atmosphere and all staff work hard to make sure your visit is enjoyable.

Heard some good things about the cafe so thought we d visit today . From the lovely welcomes from the staff we encountered to the amazing food , it was all perfect .It’s a very busy cafe so we were lucky to get a table...

Thankyou for an excellent breakfast, I think it's a pity in this increasingly cashless society we can't add a tip when using card payment. Otherwise lovely.

Excellent produce, nice cafe and staff. Good place to visit.

Lovely coffee and home baked cake. Clean accessible toilets. Outside courtyard seating for sunny weather.

Called in for the first time this morning for breakfast on the way out to Matlock. There was plenty of parking space, plus an overspill parking area for busy periods. It was quite busy being peak breakfast time during school holidays, but staff were friendly...

Lovely food, very friendly staff

Great breakfast menu. Excellent service.

Fab breakfast! GreT service and very friendly people. Will definitely go back on way home from wedding Sunday and take few things back. Thank you!
