Peak Feast in Derbyshire Dales

this place is a little gem! We visited here a couple of time during our stay in Youlgreave. The coffee is good, but the cake .... oh my!!! Incredible cake and the most generous portions!! 1they slice I had lasted me 2 days, perfect! The staff are so nice, gave us cardboard to sit on as the benches were wet. If they did delivery I'd be the size of a house, ha!

Tucked away in the stunning village of Youlgreave. A gorgeous bakery and Café. Amazing local speciality cakes biscuits, and gifts. My toasted sandwich came with delicious homemade coleslaw. So warm and friendly. I definitely recommend this Café.

Peak Feast provided the best chocolate cake for our daughter’s 40th birthday! It was decorated superbly; an added service we hadn’t expected! The staff are simply the best! Cue Tina Turner! 😃

Definitely recommend this to anyone visiting Youlgreave. Delicious Homity pies and Bakewell tarts. So good we went back to buy more to take home. The ladies who run it are all lovely and friendly.

Lovely coffee shop in a quaint village. Nice range of cakes, all vegan or vegetarian ( I'm neither but the cakes were lovely).

Absolutely amazing homity pie and coleslaw. A must visit if in the area. The Bakewell tart was also delicious. Lovely, friendly staff. A gem of a cafe. The rain poured as we sat and enjoyed a treat in this beautiful village.

This was a good find, seating outside with great food, reasonably priced. A nice selection of home made produce for sale too. 😋

What a treat, a vegetarian cafe tucked away behind the Main Street. Outdoor seating only, coffee was OK but the homemade food on offer was super. Veggie, vegan and plenty of gluten free options. Nothing too much trouble. Brought loads home to freeze too! Water provided for dogs.

A fabulous little bakery in the village of Youlgreave set in the Peak District. Offers a wide range of freshly made cakes and snacks - ideal before or after a day's walk in the stunning area. Seating available outside for tea/coffee and cake. Friendly service.

Googled "coffee shops in Youlgrave" at the end of a great 9 mile hike and found this place hidden in a back lane! A working bakery with a cafe attached, lovely choice of cakes, I had an apricot cake, wife had lemon, both were lovely and moist, coffee was great as well. All for £9.00!!

I had heard good things about the brownies from Peak Feast from my family and I had a chance to try them for myself on a recent trip home to the area. It was quite late in the day when we got there so they didn’t have the full range of flavours on offer but it still proved to be a difficult choice 😁 After a lot of prevaricating I eventually chose the Toblerone brownie and I have to say it was delicious - rich, gooey and chewy on the inside and crispy on top. I have it on good authority that the Turkish Delight brownie is heavenly as is the Twix one. I have my eye on the ginger or orange one for next time! They do really good Homity Pies for a picnic too and we’ve enjoyed them in the past whilst walking in the area. Definitely worth seeking out this little place if you’re in the area.

Such great food. We had homity pie and coleslaw, toasted cranberry & brie sandwiches and biscotti cake. All were wonderful and are highly recommended. The tea and a flat white were very good too and the staff very friendly. A thoroughly enjoyable visit in a grand Peak District village.

What a fabulous cafe! The vegetarian homity pie was served with a hearty coleslaw, a truly excellent lunch. The cakes were fresh and absolutely delicious. Staff were very friendly and coped well with an extremely busy lunchtime rush. PS - look out for Malcolm the cute blackbird hopping around - he's a little local star!

We stumbled upon this cafe during our 50 mile ride around the Peaks. A great find for us as its a vegetarian cafe and most of us are Muslims, so not really vegetarians, we just can't eat non-halal meat. The food was great because its proper hearty food which we needed during our tour. Wonderful table service and quick from the two ladies who run the cafe. Lots of space to sit and eat outside and park our 11 bikes too. A real gem of a find for us on this route.

Great coffee stop for all the cyclists wishing to do a peak district tour/sportive or just riding with friends.

This was a gem of a cafe stop. Loads of space to park 11 bikes and seat all of us. Amazing snacks from the most delicious toasties, pies, homity pie, cakes, and coffees. The staff were really friendly and accommodating. I would highly recommend this place.

Visited peak fest on 22nd May while cycling with 10 other friends in the peak district. Staff were most friendly and the food was fantastic. Very highly recommended

Half way into our 8 Mike walk we found this amazing cafe. Homity pie, outstanding coleslaw, cake and good coffee. So good we took some home to have in the evening.

The Peak Feast came recommended by my hosts in Youlgreave, and I can see why! It was a very quaint, cute shop with lots of tasty options to choose from for snacks and baked goods. They might have offered other things as well, but I only popped in quickly before they closed. Looking forward to seeing what else they have next time I’m in Youlgreave!

What a brilliant find. Amazing selection of pies, tarts and cakes, the hot homity pies are something to behold, perfect for a picnic on a long walk - I think they’re using butter! lush pastry base, tasty, well cooked potato, leek, cheese, onion filling. Fantastic...

Were on holiday in Bonsall so on our last day we drove to Peak feast to stock up to take food home with us. Staff very friendly polite and helpful. We bought chestnut and mushroom pies and chocolate brownies, having them for tea tonight so...

This is a basically a bakery/shop which also offers takeaway and hot food and drinks to eat on outside tables. We did not eat there but bought lots of goodies to eat at home including bread, oatcakes and tarts. All were delicious.

Coffee and hot chocolate lovely and hot. Bakewell tart was the best I've ever had, you'll certainly be seeing us again. Can't wait to try the Homity pie

It’s probably been said 1000 times before but Peak Feast is an absolute gem. The delicious home-made produce fabulous lunches and the outstanding homity pie made by the great team at peak feast is just a dream come true for holiday makers and locals alike....

Went here for lunch while on holiday in the village, nice food all made on the premises. Sat outside no indoor seating. All eco friendly plates and cutlery. Would recommend a visit.

Wonderful little independent cafe run from a quaint old building in this small village. Fabulous selection of cakes, including a few gluten free, along with mini machine made coffee. Also selling local preserves etc which I bought as gifts. Staff friendly & helpful. Well worth...

Stumbled on this on a walk in the area. Staff friendly and helpful. Snack and cake menu looked good but chose to have one of their different flavoured home made brownies. Chose the ginger one. It was superb. So good that I bought 6 more...

Hidden gem! Lots of homemade pies and pastries, local ice cream and a few other essentials, great little find whilst out walking!

Great food, great service and friendly staff. Ordered dishes to collect on last day, staff were super with their service.

Just stopped in for a drink, unfortunately the hot chocolate was only a little more than half full and the coffee on the small side both in little disposable cups. Facilities outdoors and quite basic, but friendly. Had a flapjack which was tasty but as...

Perfect place to stop for a hot drink and a toastie. Outdoor seating and soups offered. Other places were Covid closed so to be able to have a not drink was a relief! Bakewell tart was yum and a range of delicatessen type offerings available....

The perfect stop off during our walk through Youlgrave. We enjoyed a cheddar and onion marmalade toastie and a Homity pie - both of which were delicious!

I'm sorry but we found this place wanting. The Homity pie was tasteless, a little more apple & leek may well have pepped it up, but we couldn't eat it. The goats cheese & leek tart was the same. Utterly tasteless with a very soggy,...

Stopped by Peak Feasts twice on recent walks, the Homity pie was so tasty, had it again on 2nd visit. The coffee was good too. Also sampled their Bakewell Tarts, which were lush. Outdoor seating is fine, some tables have weather protection. There’s no loos,...

Homity Pie! I have never had such an amazing pie. 6 of us had been for a hike and found the pubs closed on our return (Tuesday). This turned out to be a stroke of luck. Instead of steak and ale we had Homity pie...

We called in twice whilst walking. Excellent service. The best Bakewell Tart. Reasonable coffee. Outdoor seating. It felt covid safe.

Great cakes after a long walk. Millionaire Short Cake, Brownie and a lovely raspberry and lemon cake 👍

You could walk past this place and miss it, luckily the tempting smells of freshly baked delights hit you before you pass......The Homity pies are amazing as are the choice of Brownies.....Delicious!!! Lovely customer service too!

Really enjoyed our lunch here - just wish we’d found it earlier in our holiday! My first experience of a homity pie - was excellent! All enjoyed everything we ordered and was nice to be able to sit outside in plenty of space. Owners very...

After a lovely walk in the beautiful countryside around Youlgrave this is a brilliant place to take refreshments. Whether you want morning coffee, a light lunch or afternoon tea/coffee and cake this is the place to enjoy delicious food. Dawn makes a range of delicious...

We've been here a few times whilst walking in the Peaks. Delicious brownies and other treats, perfect snacks along the various hiking trails around the village and along Lathkill dale. The cherry bakewell brownie is highly recommended.

We turned up absolutely dripping wet after a downpour, but managed to have a delicious coffee and probably the best flapjack I've tasted in years. Well worth a visit!

Lucky the weather was warm as outside seating only, which we knew. Warm welcome, good choice of lunches as well as tasty treats to take home, shame we thought they wouldn't survive in our rucksack! Homity Pie was a favourite, and the toasties were tasty....

The title of this review doesn't even come close to describing how good the offering is in this hidden gem in Youlgrave. From the obligatory Bakewell Tart through to Lavender Shortbread to the stupendous Christmas cake which is fast becoming a traditional purchase (I can't...

I enjoyed a lunchtime homemade soup here. It was delicious and pleasantly served with a roll. Fortunately, it was not raining so I could sit outside.

After a lovely sunny walk from Winster up the a limestone trail me, number 2 son and Tyler the cocker spaniel stopped for some well earned refreshment. Spoilt for choice, so many delicious options. Really lovely spot.

We enjoyed slices of stag cake we bought here, plenty of choice; you do have to order in whole cakes, but many cakes available to sell as separate slices.

Dawn doesn’t bake bread. She’s too busy creating amazing sweet and savoury baked goods, from her legendary Homity pies to wonderful treats like her Bakewell tart and treacle tart. She also has a freezer full of home made dinners, perfect for self-catering visitors like us....

Tucked away down a side street in the little village of Youlgreave we discovered this little bakery and cafe. Following a long and tiring hike We sat outside and drank hot chocolate and ate cake. The chocolate brownies are delish! They have different flavours such...

Favourite place in the Peak District, food is something else and the photo speaks for itself! Can’t wait to come back! Homity Pie is a must!

Peak Feast is hidden away and if you find it, you won't be disappointed. The homity pies are their speciality and are absolutely delicious. We have tried their cakes, Bakewell slices and many other tasty treats. Youlgreave wouldn't be the same without Peak Feast!

This busy bakery sells wonderful vegetarian savoury and sweet food to take away; if you prefer to order food with a hot or cold drink and sit in the sunshine (hopefully) in this lovely village then outdoor seating is available. A real bonus to the area and a tragedy for the waistband.

Called in on a lovely sunny day before beginning our walk. The Black Stag cake was amazing as was the Homity Pie we purchased for our picnic along the way. Returning in the evening to buy some Chickpea Samba and Vegetable Dhal for our supper, we found the owners closing up and about to drive home. They were more than happy to defer their departure and serve us. The curries were delicious. We will be returning today for some Homity Pies for our freezer and some homemade chutney.

After reading the reviews I was keen to try. I desperately want to stay positive, but believe in being honest. We just had cold drinks and brownies,which were acceptable, but maybe not a true representation of all that is on offer. Seating is all outside, the inside is 90% bakery and 10% tea room,which does have a slightly confusing feel. There are no toilets. My rating is based on this visit only,and I'm prepared to try it again.

Hidden little gem in Youlgreave. We call in whenever anywhere nearby & stock up. All baked on site, Homity pies are the best we've tasted, twice the size you'll see anywhere else & reasonably priced. Can be eaten outside but we usually head down to the nearby Lathkill Dale for a picnic with the ducks, plus a few extras to bring home & freeze for another day. Cake is again amongst the best we've had anywhere, moist, tasty & beautifully decorated. Dawn & the staff are always friendly & helpful. Definitely recommend a visit if you're in the area.

After reading reviews we were very disappointed in this place, no indoor seating, no counter to pay for goods and generally made to feel like an inconvenience. No greetings or smiles from the staff, they were to busy cooking on what looked like an industrial scale. This is only a glorified garage don’t build your hopes up. The bread and cakes we purchased were only average don’t know what all the fuss is about. We found the other little shop in the village far better with friendly staff.

Superb food, friendly staff, a little gem of a place. It's like an Aladdin's cave of interesting products to take away, with a nice seating area if you want to stay.

From a simple breakfast to a homity pie lunch and a chilli non carni dinner it was five star. The cake deserves a special mention. Generous portion size and they don't stint on the iceing. Really good value for money. You'd pay twice the price three miles north in Bakewell. Very friendly ladies making all the food in clear view.

Fantastic food, friendly staff. I had a delicious homemade homity pie with the greatest coleslaw I've ever tasted in my life!

The cakes are absolutely delicious here (we had carrot and coffee with walnut). It is first and foremost a bakery so inside space for customers is minimal - you can see what's on offer and take it outside to eat (with a drink; they sell those too!). Take your food away or use their really nice outdoor seating area (big umbrellas keep you dry in the event of a Peak shower; as we experienced). Staff were really friendly and welcoming. Will definitely seek this little gem out next time.

Stopped here for lunch as we passed through Youlgreave on a walk. Managed to time it well when someone was leaving, otherwise no tables left (Saturday). Really enjoyed the homity pie, less so the leek and goats cheese quiche which was a little bland. Good portions of salad and coleslaw. Great cakes, we tried the banana and pistachio and the chocolate and peanut butter brownie. Liked the fact they had lots of pre-packed snacks to take with us (and meals if you have a car/ are nearer). Staff very friendly - very glad we stopped here.

Always pop in to buy a lovely pie or Bakewell tart. The staff are so friendly. Brought home a Bakewell Tart to share with visitors this time...very good. Have not had drinks or snacks here.

We love walking in the area and always pick a day when it's warm enough to sit outside. Depending on our route we have a mug of lovely coffee before or during our walk, then come back for the fantastic, and very good value, hot homity pie with very tasty and interesting red coleslaw and very generous fresh mixed salad for lunch.....afterwards we walk it off on the way back to Middleton or Over Haddon. A must-visit place with lovely friendly staff!

Had a strong cup of tea under a sun brolly outside the bakery. Inside the food on offer looks tempting & smells deicious. We came away with homity pies yet again. Our walk into Yougrave started from Alport & we followed the river into the village via Bradford Dale.

I went with a friend after reading a good review. We turned up and found it had no indoor seating. As the day was on off rain we had to risk it. Food was nice and cakes looked good. It was very cheap but not great for rainy days.

If you are out walking in the hills between Monyash and Youlgreave you should head for this little gem. Great cakes, pies and meals and all (?) veggie. Staff are friendly too. The only drawback is that seating is outside, but you will have probably walked here anyway

Not your run of the mill deli mind as they only offer vegetarian / gluten free versions of classics. Chilli non Carne was an option but Sweet Potato Curry and Vegetable Dal were our choices of take away. These were frozen in Chinese style plastic containers very tasty and easy to deal with in the microwave. Ideal if you are self catering and don't really want to spend too much time cooking - simply add rice (that we bought form the Post Office / Store down the road). Good sized, tasty portions and very reasonably priced. They also have a great choice of freshly made cake and sweet things to tempt the unwary traveller.

There is no indoor seating. This is a proper bakery supplying cafes and restaurants throughout the Peak District that has decided to let you eat here in the sheltered outdoor area and if you do, you won’t be sorry. A pie devised and crafted by a true master of the pie making art, to my mind, a sacred art. This means a perfect combination of thin, excellent pastry, tasty and well-seasoned filling of the right consistency and of a generous size, which I soon would be if I lived within daily driving distance of this fragrant pie heaven.

Read about this place while researching GF in the area so we went over for coffee this morning, it was amazing. Great lady who was extremely helpful and the Gluten free mocha cake was well received by my coeliac husband. The coffee was brilliant and we bought a GF hommity pie for lunch.

Second visit - had homity pie and the toastie with great coffee. Bought the apple, date walnut chutney again great with cheese and made on site.

Great spot for a snack or lunch as we did. The Homity pies were lovely, strong tea and charming people

Bought a selection of sponge cakes from Peak Feast to celebrate my birthday. Coffee and walnut, Victoria sponge, date and walnut and malteser cakes. All delicious, my personal favourites being the malteser and the coffee cakes. Served by very friendly staff who wished me happy birthday. A supurb village facility that l frequent very regularly!

Well this place is a little gem for sure, walkers and ramblers must think they have gone to heaven when they come across this. We popped in whilst on holiday and bought homity pies and some chutneys and some cakes.....scrummy to say the least, all the food is made on the premises by happy smiley ladies, few tables outside for a cuppa and a piece of cake as well.Look forward to our next visit.

We love Peak Feast, there's always a warm welcome and the take away coffee and hot chocolate are delicious. They also have a great selection of local pies, cakes and pastries. I'd highly recommend a visit.

We spent a very happy week walking in the Bakewell area of Derbyshire, visiting pubs and tea shops along the way. This is the best by far, best service with a smile, best cakes, best pies and best coffee! And most reasonably priced too. Everything in the shop looked and in fact was absolutely delicious.... our party of 6 enjoyed 6 different cakes/ tarts/ pies and we all argued over who’s was the best! Needless to say we will most certainly be planning walks in this area again so that we can call again.

We had a lovely breakfast here on 2nd February. Great porridge, and we bought a couple of Bakewell Tart slices for our walk, amazing!!

We always enjoy breaking a walk at this wonderful bakery. Super cakes come with pleasant coffee drunk in the often sunny courtyard. All good.

We visited here in the summer and had the homity pie and Turkish delight chocolate brownie both absolutely delicious, thought I'd died and gone to heaven. Prices reasonable and service quick and friendly, loved it so much asked my sister to pick us some up when they visited the area last week.

An out of the way must visit place when you visit Youlgreave. It is run by pleasant lovely ladies who do the baking & serve the public. Always a smile & a warm welcome. Try the homity pie it is unusual & an addictive product. My friend & I walk The Peak almost every week & many times we call here for a strong brew & a stock of pies. Thank you for the great service & genuine welcome. See you again soon!

Can't get enough of this place! Vegetarian and vegan bakery for savoury and sweet food, I am a very regular customer. I especially like their homity pie and their red bean pie and I eat far more of their flap jacks, brownies, shortbread and Bakewell tart than I should!! Delicious. Friendly helpful staff. Also does ready meals to take away and has an outside cafe area for lunch and snacks.

I live in Derbyshire but only discovered this little gem recently. I am now making up for lost time! Their vegan options are delicious. I buy fresh made or frozen. Try their date & walnut cake, their Bakewell tart and all of their vegan frozen ready meals. You won't be disappointed, I promise. A true gem of a place.

We stayed at Peak Pods at Alport and made this a regular walk having found it on our first day. The homity pie is amazing bit we have also had quiche and cheddar and red onion marmalade toasties as well as most of the cakes. If we couldn't manage one we took them back for later. Lovely food and excellent service too.

Need a quality home baked snack with a cuppa or cold drink, this is the place. Also have gluten free options which are awesome. Friendly team, great find a little off the Main Street.

We bought some goodies from Peak Feast having had a walk over from Peak Pods. The nicest ginger flapjack I’ve ever tasted, there wasn’t any left to take home by the time we’d all finished !

This little cafe, with outside seating only at the time, was our favorite stop for lunch. If you get there at just about noon there are warm homity pies coming from the oven and they quickly became our favorite local food and we took several home to heat up at homes as well. Made from a potato, onion, and leek mixture with spices and cheese, backed in a shall, this mouthwatering treat was a large lunch, and with a side of salad, one was enough for two modest appetites. The women working there were pleasant and hardworking as they make untold members of these pies everyday as well as other interesting vegetarian items.

Best place to eat, its a veggie place but the food is fantastic and they have smiles can be a bit expensive for branded stuff the home made is good

The service is friendly the food is good, even if it is veggie, we eat here twice and had snacks as well, worth finding and eating the Homiety pie

Thought I knew Youlgreave well until I noticed Peak Feast. Homity Pie with colourful salad and a mug of strong tea were perfect for a stop on a long walk. Portion of coleslaw made with shredded red cabbage, diced beetroot and subtle spice flavour was a lovely surprise. Very good, some unusual, sponge cakes baked there and lots of other good things available (see website) including porridge (even in summer). Definitely a place to go to again, in lovely countryside and a short walk from the village's interesting old church with its Victorian east window in pre-Raphaelite style designed by Burne-Jones. Friendly and helpful staff.

Always make a point of visiting here when we are in the Peak District (and will soon be living here so will be able to visit more often)! We had the amazing homity pies and salad. Delicious and all served with a smile. Huge choice of delicious cakes, slices and brownies. We had the mint matchmakers and peanut butter brownies - yum! Generous portions and very reasonable prices - you will not be disappointed.

They bake excellent homity pie and Bakewell tarts. We've been back a few times as they are so scrumptious

Amazing variety of delicious chocolate brownies, flapjacks and cakes, good selection of coffees and teas, small choice of savouries. Good value.

Stopped for lunch prior to a 7 mile walk. The hot Hommity Pie set us up wonderfully. Purchased Bakewell Tarts for later and these were lovely too. The bakery is vegetarian/vegan but that does not mean lack of taste.

Peak Feast is a bit hidden in Youlgrave, but worth the effort to find (it's signposted and a short walk up a slight incline).

A lovely place to park your weary legs after a walk up into youlgreave. Homitty pie was delightful. A lovely deli with outside seating. Glad the pub had stopped starving ;-).

This is not a restaurant. It’s a bakery where you can get a coffee and buy some of the lovely cakes, pies etc. that are being made for local shops and other eateries,

Oh so yummy..... We had to go back here to buy some more brownies and treacle tart before we left the Peak District. The biggest choice in Brownies I have seen. My husband loved the Turkish Delight one, I loved the Cherry Bakewell, we both loved the toblerone and peanut butter ones. I wish they did delivery across to the other side of the country!

Nice cheese, nice pickle, nice bread, nice cakes, nice people. What more can be said. Oh nice village.

Unfortunately, from the reviews on TA, we had assumed this was a cafe and we arrived for a lunch on a very wet Monday. It is actually a bakery with a wooden bench outside and because of the weather, we obviously couldn't sit on this. However, we bought a homity pie to take home and a piece of cake, which were both very nice.

Homity pie, bakewell tart, infact everything is excellent. We go here regularly for cakes , bread, pies & quiche. The coffee and a slice at £3 is FANTASTIC value. The lovely ladies can't do enough to help you. They also do homemade vegetarian dishes to take away TOP NOTCH! See you soon!!

The smell of baking draws you in. We ate homity pie which was tasty & very welcome after our walk. We then couldn't resist the delicious Bakewell tart!! The coffee was also really good. The staff were very friendly & the sun shone! A lovely end to a gorgeous walk.
