Amazing takeout breakfast cobs, fantastic value and recyclable packaging. Lovely little salad with it. Sausages delicious and hash, cheese and egg sublime. Definitely coming back. Lovely staff.

Lovely little place. We had really nice coffees and very generous bacon and sausage sandwiches. My bacon sarnie had lovely crispy bacon - lots of it on a nice buttered bap. So many places give you flaccid bacon on an unbuttered role.

Friend booked a group via messenger for afternoon tea. There are different types of afternoon tea but wasn’t asked what type was wanted or dietary requirements so didn’t think they needed to know before hand. Thankfully they did sort out 1 of 3 requirements when we were there but tried to charge extra for it rather than substitute which at £21 for some sandwiches and cake was a lot. Two people had a hot latte spilt all over them which was not properly cleaned up or really apologised for. Young servers seemed out of their depth. I brought leftover cakes home only to find they were mouldy at the bottom! I attempted to contact the eatery but although they have seen the message unfortunately they have not replied. Poor service at an expensive price.

Amazing afternoon tea with friends. I like the fact they do a sweet and a savoury. The selection on both was great and there was so much we had to take some home.

This was my second visit as knowing I was booked in for an afternoon tea with friends my husband and I had done a sneaky ‘coffee and cake’ visit on our motorbike a few weeks prior . Both visits were a success . The second time was an afternoon tea and you could pre Book either sweet or savoury . I had a gluten free sweet selection and wow !!!!! Lots of choice and all delicious. I doubt anyone could tell that the cakes or scone were gluten free ( at some places the scones taste dry and fall to bits ) . Unlimited tea and coffee too . Parkys is a little on the small side which was a-bit of a worry knowing I was bringing my disabled mum but the owner was very accommodating and let us park immediately outside which meant she didn’t need to use her Walker and once inside she managed well too . I’m not sure how wheelchairs would go on but I’m sure the staff would be creative with furniture and make it work , All the staff were very good even down to the waiter on his very first day ( you really couldn’t tell ) . Tip : if going for afternoon tea one of you order sweet and the other savoury and just swap . There’s plenty of everything so you won’t fall out ! Doggy boxes provided for the leftovers- I still have a fridge full ! Thanks Parkys

We popped in here just for coffee but everything about this cafe was so lovely we stayed for brunch. My friend said her scone was delicious. My gluten free cheesecake was the best gluten free dessert I've ever had in a restaurant in UK. The cafe is clean and attractive, the service was friendly and attentive to our needs and the prices are good value. We look forward to having lunch on our next visit.

Perfect place to stop for refreshments or something more substantial. What we liked was the comprehensive menu, with an excellent selection of meals and delicious cakes and sweet treats. We also liked the swift friendly attentive service (thank you Ross). The pricing was without doubt the best in the area. Sadly we couldn't partake in the afternoon tea experience it looked so good by the way. Finally and importantly a pot of tea which delivered 3 cups person who doesn't love a cuppa or 3.

We've seen posts of this place and decided to give it a visit, why didn't we do this sooner? Prebooking is recommended, On arrival we had a warm welcome and shown to our table, we had pre-ordered our afternoon tea for two, and our boys had a sausage cob and the other the waffles, the cob had 3 sausages in, and the cob was also large to accommodate this, excellent value for money,and the waffles wasn't a shy portion either, plenty of fruit, ice cream, cream and sauce,never got chance for a photo, as they got stuck in , now to business the afternoon tea, this is the best we've had, lovely light and fresh sandwiches, the pastries were of perfect size and just plainly delicious, not heavy one bit!!! They also do a savoury version which we are yet to try, but I'm most certainly going to do so. The place itself is great got a great feel to it, the staff are warm and welcoming, and for a change they engaged with the children, and spoke to them like a guest, so they got to order their food, well done, more places should do this, so made a really comfortable dining experience and family friendly, 5* no brainer, can't wait to go again.

From walking into parkys it had a really nice atmosphere we were taken to our table and asked what drinks we wanted straight away. My nana was with us on her first outing since March due to covid and she felt really comfortable as all the staff wore masks and there was a hand sanitising station. Those who had tea had a nice glass pot with about 3 rounds of tea. I had a coffee which was filled up fresh whenever you wanted it to be. Then the food came and wow! The bread was really soft and the fillings were very good quality. There was at least 8 different choices of cakes and a MASSIVE scone which was homemade. Everyone that was there agreed it’s the best afternoon tea they’ve ever had, will be recommending and returning, it’s around 40 minutes away from us but worth visiting again for sure! It was £18.50 pp which I know is on the pricey side for an afternoon tea but with what they offered it was definitely worth it. I think the average being around £15, I’m happy to pay the extra for good quality food and drinks.

I’ve never been to Parky’s before, and the food was absolutely amazing. However I was meeting a few friends with my 2 year old daughter, then upon arrival my friend asked if they had a high chair for my daughter and they said no, and proceeded to tell me that this was because they don’t really like having children there. I was really confused that this comment was made as the man who served us, was really lovely. I genuinely don’t think he meant any harm by saying it, but it made me feel really uncomfortable being there with my daughter, if she made any noise or acted like a normal two year old would, I was worried about what they would think. I would 110% recommend this place for food, it was absolutely gorgeous. But I just felt rather uncomfortable whilst I was there due to the comment made.

I had never visited Parkys before so my friend tells me one needs to book in advance for the afternoon tea as everything is baked especially! Oh my word what a feast of delights! I have been for many afternoon teas all around the uk but wow, this one has surpassed them all! The variety of cakes and pastries is amazing.A blackberry mousse in a glass was delightful and all beautifully presented and decorated with edible flowers! We also had a glass of Prosecco with ours.The scone was full size too! We were unable to finish out afternoon tea so David the owner carefully packaged our leftovers up for us to take home with us! Thank you David for a lovely experience, it was lovely to chat with you,and thank you for helping my friend to find the piece of land that was up for sale in the area! Who knows, she may end up living nearer to the shop so Il definable be joining her again to take up your hospitality again. One question I should have asked is,Do you provide Gluten free afternoon tea to order, as my husband is Gluten free and hasn’t been able to have an afternoon tea out for years. Wishing Parkys a continuing successful business.

We booked parkys out for a private party for my dads 60th birthday meal, there was 19 of us. We went in a week before to talk to Steve and Rob and made a menu up with them and tasted some wines to pick for the tables. On the night we couldn’t of asked for such a perfect night the food was delicious and plenty of it. The service was fantastic and Rob and Steve were great with our 2 young boys aged 8 and 5 years. The atmosphere was lovely, really special to have the place to our selfs made it really special. I would highly recommend parkys for a special occasion. We’ve been a few times now and we can not fault the food or service for breakfast, Lunch or a Evening meal. Thanks again to all at parkys and see you all again very soon.! X

We had heard good things about the afternoon tea here and I must say I wasn't disappointed. There was a variety of sandwiches (ham, cheese, egg, smoked salmon) and a lovely selection of cakes, plus unlimited tea or coffee.You definately won't leave hungry and we had a doggy bag to take home what we couldn't finish - the photo shows what a selection you get with the sweet tea for two.I would recommend booking as it was busy even on a Tuesday afternoon, but there were tables available if you walked in - might not be the case on a weekend.

We visited Sunday the 9th February with a party of 9 adults and 3 children for afternoon tea. Upon arriving we were greeted with unlimited teas and coffees, the staff couldn’t do enough for us and was attentive throughout. When the afternoon teas arrived we couldn’t believe how much food was included, presentation was beautiful and the quality of food didn’t disappoint us when we began to eat, it was just amazing and definitely will be returning in the near future.

Great lunch! Went as a family and there was a good selection. We enjoyed our food. Some other diners had an afternoon tea which looked absolutely wonderful! We will be returning to try that!

The wind and rain of storm Ciara drove us indoors this morning and we found ourselves in Parky's Eatery in Cromford. We might have ordinarily have walked past this little gem but fortunately we bolted through the first door we found for shelter and made a great discovery!We were lucky to get the last table as this is clearly a well sought after eatery. Our breakfast and coffees were lovely, the service was prompt and friendly despite the staff being obviously rushed off their feet. We’ll most certainly be returning and recommending to our friends; thank you

I prebooked afternoon tea for four, I explained one of us had dietary requirements and that was not a problem at all. We arrived and was greeted by smiles offering a glass of water whilst waiting for our food followed by our choice of either tea or coffee. When they brought in the platters there were candles in the cakes for me, I declined them singing though!! The food looked fabulous and tasted the same. We had too much left that we ended up taking some home. Was very impressed with the service and will be returning again soon.

We went here, 'on spec' for breakfast after hearing about it. What a fantastic place this is!! The food was excellent, can recommend the smashed avocado for breakfast best I've tasted. The full breakfast had by my partner looked and he said tasted delicious. Clear plates all round. We also purchased some of their desserts to take home and weren't disappointed. Going back to try lunch and also evening meals. Highly recommended.

Another fabulous visit to Parkys. Afternoon tea is out of this world and extremely good value. Our party of 6 had 1 of us that hadnt been before and he couldn't believe the amount and quality of food we had. Always a cheery welcome nothing is too much trouble.

On our 3 day “escape from the city” we managed to visit Parky’s Eatery twice. It was the first place we found when we arrived in Cromford, and it didn’t disappoint. Firstly, we could not believe the variety of foods and drinks they had - we opted for a scone and coffee/tea. Everything you’d expect from a high quality eatery, fresh, tasty and very well presented. Our second visit we had lunch, of which we had something from their Ciabatta selection which were also absolutely stunning. One thing to note is that they produce the most fantastic “Afternoon Tea” stands with a range of cakes and sandwiches - the showstopper! Definitely a place to go whether you travel there or are already in the area.

No hay un montón de lugares para una parada para tomar café en el sendero de Monsal pero tienes que parar aquí para ver un francés Citroen van que solía ser una furgoneta carnicerías, que sirve bocadillos recién hechos y triturar los granos de café para el café. El día que estuvimos allí, el servidor tenía un sentido del humor y seco que merecía una parada para el entretenimiento.

Food is really nice, love watching the birds on the feeder. Very limited space so can't always see the birds clearly but worth the visit. Is outdoor seating around front where small garden centre bit easy. Small shop inside with lovely products. My friend recommended the cafe and I recommend it to everyone now too
