National Trust - Restaurant in Amber Valley

Two different menus rather confusing - picked up the wrong one and missed having lunch!!

Such a fabulous room, plenty of space for pushchair. Ordering system fabulous, friendly service, quick delivery of food and well presented. Reasonable prices for venue and honestly one of the best vegan scones ever eaten.

Shocked at the prices for national trust food. Very reasonable and well worth it for the quality alone. Good size portion and well presented. Faultless service and all this in the house's old kitchen complete with copper pans on the wall and a large open fireplace.

1st visit great. 2nd visit food was obviously re heated microwaved too long and a weird texture.

Coffee and cake... I think that's all we eat at these places... And the other meals looked lovely as they passed by us lol

Busy but table service once ordered

Very friendly staff, lovely food

The special was a meat and cheese platter (£20) meant to serve 2 people but it was a very mean portion and not worth the money and we had to ask for 2 plates. Would not recommend.

Great lunch, the soup of the day (pea & mint) was nice. However, it’s hard to get a table during main meal times.

I had cream of celeriac soup with a cheese scone and it was excellent. A rare soup flavour but delicious and a good flavour. As with all NT cheese scones, it was lovely, especially dipped in the soup. It's a better NT café than most. Recommended.

Good clean restaurant with, friendly staff 👌 and prices are moderate.

Lovely home made food,reasonably priced also ...

Very friendly staff staff and exceptional value for

Lovely cafe/restaurant and the cheese scone was by far the best I've ever had and I've had a lot.

It was OK , a little bit slow with the orders.

For service National Trust is second to none.

Amazing food, friendly staff, great place for familes to visit

Very friendly and helpful staff. Excellent toasted tea cake, scones and flapjacks

Lovely clean restaurant, very nice staff,food really nicely presented,and very tasty.Good value for money.

Nice restaurant. Good selection of light lunches drinks and snacks

Slightly disappointed with selection on offer today seem to be going very vegan/veggie, could do with more meaty offerings.

Very cold . They gotten my order wrong every time we go and the prices are way to high for what you get . I would advise to bring your own food and drinks

Restaurant was well organised and reasonably priced. Staff pleasant and helpful. Will return. Thank you

Yes it was very good. Proper cups instead of paper ones. The food was good and reasonable price.

The menu is de_void of the classics..quiche. shepherds pie.toasted teacakes.fish and chips...for example...but the food quality is always very good..

Lovely cafe latte. We were able to sit outside and admire the view

Only had tea and smacks, it was fine, lovely views

Best bacon, sausage and tomato sandwich I have had for ages, this alone made the trip worthwhile

Food was great, we had pasties and cream tea. It is expensive but well worth it for the upkeep of the hall

Glorious sunny day so sitting outside for a coffee, overlooking the lake and bridge was very pleasant. After a short walk we returned, this time to a table in the shade, for lunch. Easy to order and a short wait until the food was delivered. Another lovely experience; wonderful views, relatively cool and good food - and the company of our friends. Excellent morning / early afternoon.

Not the biggest restaurant in the world but the food was good and didn't take too long to arrive so all good. I assume it was the old kitchens and the place retains that historic charm.

Lovely coffee, lovely view of the lake and sheep, very tranquil,👌,

Excellent. Very good coffee and cake.

Had jacket potatoes for our lunch on a visit here. Expensive, but excellent service and portion and the coleslaw was delicious!

No sandwiches made of bread just baguettes. Find it good having the calories on things now though

main only 2 choices both vegaterian. only meat in snacks (sausage roll or bacon bun) extortionate. no meat sandwiches. very little tuna in the tuna & cucumber. Good crisps. Best eat somewhere else. staff ok, relatively clean.

A nice place to have a coffee or something to eat. A limited menu but very nice food.

Didn't have any of the meals we wanted and so her indoors had to make do with a scone plus a coffee and I just had a cup of tea which had a total cost of £8.35 which I did think was a bit on the expensive side

Nice atmosphere and good food and drink at a reasonable price.

Only wanted ice cream so was thinking not sitting in etc was going to be quite quick, unfortunately other customers had other ideas. Lots of pushing in queues, standing too close etc. It was like a bun fight with very little organisation!! If ice cream parlour could have served from different area/location might of helped, but customers were not mindful of anything or anyone.

A nice experience, fresh produce, and tasty options as always.

Standard but decent, if a little pricey.

Lovely, friendly, sat outside with the dogs.

Nice place to sit down and relax little bit 😊. The Cream Tea is lovely ( fruit scones were nice and still warm ). But remember this is NationalTrust Cafe so might be overpriced for some. Otherwise great and fast service. 👍

Can't beat a National Trust cuppa! Unlike many NT cafés Kedleston operates table service. Attractive peacock fan menus and prettily framed table numbers are set out in an airy, high ceilinged former kitchen, with original features apparent. Some tables are on the lawn outside for good weather dining. A limited but interesting hot meal selection with specials board. Lovely service.

Nice open plan resteraunt in what looks like the old kitchens at Kedlaston hall ... also cozy side room which feels warmer. Old style decor with copper kitchen ware on display. Find a table Order at the till and wait for your food and drink. Coffe tea and soft drinks, cakes snacks and meals. Worth a visit ... especially the savory cream scones. Toilets close by and outside tables for the summer

Lovely place to enjoy a coffee and cake, or a full blown meal if you're hungrier. You enter into a large, high ceiling hall, with most of the tables in neat rows with seating that matches the surroundings. To the left is a very large fire place, and we were lucky enough to sit here in a couple of comfortable armchairs. Ordering takes place at a small till situated right at the rear of the hall, next to the kitchen entrance. British weather permitting, there is plenty of seating outside.
