Pumpkinz in Erewash

Went with my friend for coffee and cake. I had the raspberry bakewell tart was delightful. Took home coffee walnut cake for hubby and this was just as nice. Have been several times and always enjoyed lovely mocha coffee and a slice of something yummy from the freshly baked cakes. Would recommend.

Always made to feel welcome staff and food lovely , me and my granddaughter go after her gymnastics class .

Crumbly but very nice scone indeed, and bacon/brie/cranberry panini with salad went down well too. Tea and coffee nice. For us, the down side was having to share a food establishment with a fidgety dog at the next table, just not pleasant. Will we come again, yes, but we'll look for a table away from any dogs. (Sorry if you are a dog lover, it's just how we feel.)

Really lovely cafe, I came on my bike and had a coffee, the staff were lovely it has a nice calm atmosphere.

Just a nice small cafe based in a old factory. Indoor and outdoor seating, nice menu selection. Hot and cold food.

We absolutely love this place. Always a go to when going out for lunch or just a coffee. Always so friendly and welcoming.

I've been coming here for years with cycling groups or generally for either a snack or a meal. Good food, good coffee, good service & a charming location.

Nice place to meet friends for coffee and cake

Lovely people ...great food ...great coffee! It feels like coffee and cake at a friend's house!

visited today Tuesday 5th dec 2023. Last time we were here we had terrible customer service but thought try again as we did today. Place was not very busy. menu ok. coffee was nice. we had large but didnt seem large at all. Toast took ages and was just brown, need to give more butter. Price was ok but prefer larger drinks

Lovely food, great cheese scone, amazing hot chocolate! Busy inside but seats outside

You really do make the best scones ever! Yum yum!

Lovely place and very friendly staff. Nice looking cake selection,I had a cheese scone and it came out warm and it was very tasty. Lovely outdoor seating.

Been here several times and always enjoy the good coffee on offer and great homemade cakes. Also delicious paninis on offer. Always end up taking a piece of cake home. Can book a table in advance too, which is most helpful.

In the main the food, drinks and service are good. BUT avoid the scones. I forgot from last time we visited that they are to be avoided, and ordered one on this visit. They are dry as old boots and crumble to pieces as soon as the knife gets anywhere near then.

Lovely food and cakes, Amazing people too

Best coffee nearby. Good scones and jam too. Will visit regularly. 😀 Service is always good too. 👍

What a lovely place we just found whilst having a walk. Staff really friendly and nothing to much trouble. Everything made fresh and lovely coffee. Definitely be back when in the area.

Chilled out with coffee and cake, well worth finding and revisiting

Love this place loverly stage n food is amazing xx

From out of the area but it was very nice and we'll certainly return if we're in the area again

Lovely coffee shop with good menu choices

Lovely little place, they do amazing homemade cakes and lovely hot chocolates. They have an outdoor seating area too if there isn’t space inside. The staff are always nice and helpful

Bin to this little gem of a cafe a few times now we was introduced to it by a friend as we had no idea it existed because it is tucked away inside some old mill type buildings in the village of draycott of the main road but there is a advertising sign on the roadside Anyway back to the food and drink The food and drinks here are top quality there is a nice variety on the menu not vast but varied enough for a quite small eaterie from order to food being on your table is plenty quick enough and they also do a good variety of hot and cold drinks however I am fairly set in my ways unfortunately so I can only comment on my food which is a baked potato/jacket potato every visit with a nice fancy coffee too wash it down The potatoes are very generous in size as you only get the one but it is enough once you've added your choice of toppings but always cooked perfect for me even the skin is lovely to eat I also tend to have either a latte or a mocha chocca type coffe but again they are of generous size and top quality Therefore I cannot recommend this hidden gem enough

Home prepared delicious savouries and cakes, in a beautiful clean tearoom.

Friendly staff, Scone a bit dry.

Very tasty cakes, good selection. Beverages can be with oat/soy/almond etc. Plant based milks if you prefer. Very nice location, quiet and breezy.

Very nice ladies, nice cake, good coffee, shame they don't do breakfast because im sure it would be wonderful

Great friendly service, and the food is very good

Lovely relaxing place for coffee and cake and lots more. ☕🍵🍪🍩🥧🍰🥖🥐🍟🍔

Very clean, plenty of space for social distancing, extremely friendly and helpful staff, a lovely place to visit

Nice and friendly place and staff excellent coffee

Really nice friendly place good selection of nice cake and reasonably priced,but on a personal note I didn't like the coffee.

First visit, pleasant atmospheric. Nice cake. Coffee a bit too strong for my taste.

Lovely shop, so pleased that this Emporium is open again. Dropped in this afternoon to get a small gift for my friend in Australia.

Warm welcome, amazing cake and coffee, always a winner...try it for yourself!

Fabulous coffee and coffee toffee cake and my dog had biscuits from the lovely ladies

Great lunch and very friendly. Thoroughly recommend

Lovely staff, very clean cafe, relaxed atmosphere & great coffee & cake.

Excellent service and quality in a pleasant setting. Also an interesting shop in the same courtyard. The Emporium has a lot of quirky items for home and garden.

Lovely place and very dog friendly dogs are welcome inside too which is great

Lovely coffee and small gift shop

Lovely place, very Coivid safe with hand sanitiser and staff in masks. Nice outdoor seating also

Lovely cafe and friendly staff with good service.

I came here a few weeks ago and I loved it, I came on a Saturday around about 12:30 and was served by this lovely girl, I cant remember her name but she has blonde hair and brown eyes, I felt so welcome and loved it. I will defiantly be coming back because of this young lady.

Visited here today 31st October for the first time. Have heard a lot of comments locally about this cafe and gave it a try today. Took some finding in the industrial complex it sits in, needs a signpost as you go in. Small cafe with some outside seating also. usual menu of coffees cakes etc. Price was good, coffee and t-cake was nice staff were very friendly. Cannot say it is a little gem or anything like that, it was ok and thats all

I have been visiting here since it opened. Bev and her team are friendly. The food is consistently good. There are some tables in the courtyard too if you are a dog walker. Several lovely independent shops nearby including frox dress agency and browns hairdresser. It is easy to while away an afternoon here. The courtyard also does a summer and Christmas event.

Iconic setting, cakes to die for, simple but satisfying lunch menu and friendly staff. I brought a friend for her birthday, and we both can't wait to come back!

Love this cafe. Food always excellent, staff lovely. Well done all over the sizzling bank holiday. Delicious cakes and welcome shade. Folk who have not yet discovered this gem need to seek it out hidden away in the little court yard off the green.

Tucked away in Draycott, is this lovely Cafe, the staff were very friendly and the Cafe and it's surroundings were very pleasant. The homemade cakes were very tasty and it was hard to choose which one to have, but between me and my 3 daughters we managed to sample quite a few. If you're a chocoholic the salted caramel brownie is to die for. The prices are very reasonable and there's plenty of choices on the menu. If you've never been you really should pay it a visit you won't be disappointed.

Nice cosy cafe! Great home baked cakes! Nice tea selection served in nice cups & saucers! Easy parking outside!

Went to day with my sister in law, lovely place we both had jacket potato and cheese and a pot of tea, beautifully cooked potato and a nice large pot of tea and china cups. We didn’t have any cake but they looked great. Staff were very good and friendly. It’s set in a little courtyard with some very nice shops

My first time to Pumpkinz and very impressed. Draycott has come on in leaps and bounds over the last few years and Pumpkinz is clearly part of the story. Coffee and service were great but the brownie was exceptional. Worth a visit and take the opportunity to also browse the quirky Emporium Store across the courtyard.

I love a good cafe, and this one hots every nail in the head! The Afternoon tea is delicious, with fresh sandwiches, handmade cakes and warm fruit scones. The setting and decor is lovely and instantly relaxing and the team are so welcoming. Can't think of a nicer way to spend an afternoon with friends. We'll definitely be back...soon!

Have now been here about four or five times and each time the food and service have been lovely. Visited last week in the heatwave. Nothing is too much trouble.

This is a lovely coffee house that also sells beautiful cakes and very nice food. A very enjoyable Saturday morning stroll for a decent coffee and maybe a slice of cake, or a toastie......bliss. Staff are good, in the main. Am slightly fascinated by one staff member who looks like she is supposed to work there.....and is often behind the counter taking orders.....but I'm never sure she is actually listening. It doesn't make a jot of difference as the coffee and cake are gorgeous and I'm warming to this rather distracted member of staff. In fact, she's starting to make each visit more interesting. So....looking forward to Saturday! :-)

The tearoom forms part of a converted mill. Beautifully decorated and the cakes looked delicious too! However, only wanted a coffee on this occasion. Service was friendly and very efficient and the coffee spot on.

Primera vez en la cafetería, reservada una mesa, debido al hecho de que no es el más grande lugar para comer y no quieres estar decepcionado.

I found this cafe after it being recommended by a friend. What a super friendly place with traditional seating as well as sofas for relaxed dining. Child friendly too.

La reserva para un té en Pumpkinz Vintage después fue recomendado por un amigo, y no me decepcionó!

Amable y lleno, pero relativamente caro y no una gran variedad foodmenu, una buena gama de tartas caseras. Café es normal, tortas son buenas, encontramos el "paninis" un poco sin sabor. . Podría hacer. con un toque de condimento.

I've been here a couple of times and I think it's lovely and relaxing. There's lovely personal touches and the staff are very friendly. I like it when the cakes are made by the company and coffee is lovely.

He estado conexion boing de calabazas desde que abrió sus puertas. Bev hace panini y su padre el quingombó pasteles. Ella también hace el té de la tarde si libro. Hay una buena selección de tarjetas también y es un lugar encantador para relajarse y leer. FROX es una agencia arriba hermoso vestido con nuevos artículos y disfrutaron anteriormente. Holly y su equipo son muy acogedores. Bien merece una visita.

Great to pop in here, usually for a brew and a piece of warm homemade quiche. On this occasion a hit of homemade coffee and walnut cake was needed. Very moist and full of walnuts. YUMMY!!

Took a friend as part of her birthday present, had a lovely afternoon tea, A very friendly lady served us,...

Tucked away in Draycott Mill, this lovely intimate little cafe was worth searching out! Went for the first time last week and loved it! The ladies are friendly and smiley, the cakes are light and fluffy - my only criticism is the coffee could do with being stronger, but this won't stop me from returning!!

When we eventually found Pumpkinz it was in a lovely courtyard. Hard th difficult decision of which cake and plumped for a victoria sponge and Daughter had a brownie. Both were divine I hate it when you eat the victoria sponge and the cream tastes gritty from the sugar, not here it was beautiful and homemade. The brownie was divine crisp on the top with a wonderful gooey centre. Staff were pleasant and welcoming and there were lovely cups and saucers on display. My only grips are there needs to a be an A board at the mills so you know where to go and the cans of pops, not a fan of when the multi packs of pop are sold singularly. Other than these a lovely place to go.

Visited here on Wednesday afternoon to say goodbye to my daughter who was travelling home to Turkey the next day..and there is nowhere better we could have visited for our Vintage afternoon tea. Freshly made sandwiches with four different fillings..Scone with Clotted cream and jam...the cakes were so light and beautifully decorated..delicious and extremely mouth watering!. The lady who served us really looked after us..It was an absolute pleasure to be there! I am only a visitor to this area..but please if you too are in the area I would strongly recommend you pay it a visit. We couldn't eat another thing for the rest of the day.there was so much food..excellent value for money! Thank you for making us so welcome!

Been here a few times before. The cakes are home baked and fab-u-lous. We were treated to an afternoon tea by a friend. It was delicious. Special attention to detail with the table setting, really worth treating yourself. Great hospitality, friendly and welcoming.

Pumpkinz played great hosts to a large family afternoon tea recently. The table was beautifully laid out with a great selection of sandwiches, scones, mini cakes & bottomless pots of tea & coffee. The fresh flowers were a wonderful touch! Service was fantastic as it always is when we visit. I would highly recommend this lovely coffee shop in a quiet hidden corner of Draycott. I urge everyone to seek it out!

I'd just like to say a huge thank you to Bev for the loan of your beautiful collection of vintage China that we used for an afternoon tea at my daughters Hen weekend. The homemade bake well tart was a huge hit....I did try to pass it off as my own work but my friends wouldn't believe me!

I have visited this charming little tea room on several occasions and absolutely love it ☕️❤️I recommended it to my friends mother, she wanted an afternoon tea with friends to celebrate her retirement xxUnfortunately she is not online, so she has asked me to pass on her compliments to the proprietors xxShe had a marvellous time in an authentic vintage tearoom with exquisite food and drink xx She also mentioned that as she lives in Shardlow it will be her 'go to' place when she fancies a delicious scone So once again, thank you for being our No.1 top tea room xxx

First found Pumpkinz when I was due to meet a group here. Have had 3 family visits and another group meeting here.

So cute. Very friendly staff. Great to see walkers welcome and dogs. Cakes are homemade and amazing. Gluten free options incredible too.

Had a Vintage Tea, food was delicious, customer service was excellent. Would definitely recommend - yummy yummy!

Love the atmosphere and the cakes and drinks are great. Been a few times before with family. Nice choice of cards in a different environment.

The location of this cafe is just perfect ! A sunny sheltered courtyard away from traffic noise ! We only had coffee and cake .. But it was delicious .. Cherry almond sponge and a moist carrot cake served along side excellent coffee in China cups ! The sun trap location and excellent service making this a lovely visit ! Will definitely return !

Stumbled across this little gem, tucked away in the courtyard of a lovely old mill.My friend & I both had pate, beautifully presented with salad & toast, spot on.We then sampled cake from the large selection available. My friend chose coffee whilst I went for the chocolate, can honestly say it was the best I've ever had! Light, moist & delicious. Lovely place, clean & well furnished throughout & excellent value for money, they have a "secret garden" too.Smashing!

wow, I visited pumpkins today and I can honestly say how lovely everything was a lovely atmosphere and all the cakes looked amazing, you could tell they were homemade, which is what I'd heard on the grapevine and why I wanted to try pumkinz, after agonising over the choice of which cake to have I opted for a lovely cream tea, and it was fabulous, a lovely pot of tea served in China and my scone was served warm, which really bought out the flavour of scone, delicious, I decided to sit out in the lovely court yard, which is so pretty at the moment with all the summer flowers, all I can say is what a lovely treasure of a tea room/cafe, I left feeling happy and you must try it for yourself

You have to visit this lovely little find at the back of Draycott. Lovely friendly atmosphere, very attentive staff. Lots to choose from, great atmosphere in the Courtyard, especially on a beautiful summers day. Lovely cards and gifts... Will be returning soon. thank you

Visit Pumpkinz for a fab light lunch , delicious panini, and indulgent cakes .Lovely friendly atmosphere , and if the weathers nice you can sun yourself in the courtyard .

I was really looking forward to visit, but what a let down. The food menu was basic and there wasn't much choice. I ordered a scone, jam and cream and I wasn't expecting it to be heated up in the microwave. The toastie didn't have much flavour, and we left half of what we ordered.They didn't even ask if the food was okay. Won't be going again, there are far better places just down the road.

We came to pumpkinz after being told by a friend we must visit. Having lived in draycott for many years we did not know about it and must say it's not signposted at all, and should have more recognition. although a bit pricey at around £14 for two paninis and a orange and apple juice it is a credit to draycott and has a beautiful, quaint interior. The staff were welcoming and there was a community feel to the place which made it a comfortable atmosphere to stay and relax in. The food was lovely, although I do think it could of been slightly cheaper in comparison to the portion size. We will be returning for cake though!

Warming and friendly smile/greeting as soon as you walk through the door, it is a winner straight away. It gets even better, coffee that taste's great and a good selection of home made cakes to choose from. Pumpkinz is well decorated, spotlessly clean and definately worth a visit.

Just popped in by chance to a lovely pleasant warm welcome. Lemon drizzle cake was so scrummy , I will definitely be back

Pumpkinz is a warm and friendly venue in a qwirky setting. Part of the old mill buildings in the Courtyard at Draycott, it is warm and welcoming.Good for coffee and cakes, light lunches, and their famed afternoon teas (you need to book these in advance)I enjoyed a private booking here for my 50th birthday, with great food in a great environment, and friendly staff. I assume they still cater for small functions by arrangement.Good fresh, home cooked food and cakes

the afternoon tea is such wonderful value for £9.95 , it's as good as ( if not better ) than some I've had costing £25. Lovely atmosphere , very relaxing and super friendly staff. I'd recommend everyone to treat themselves to the afternoon tea - you don't need any supper after that !

This was an amazing venue for a private function. The food was outstanding;; afternoon tea with a whole range of sandwiches, scones, cakes, tea or coffeeThe atmosphere was excellent; relaxed with great service.Thanks to all the staff

Came here during the scarecrow trail. We enjoyed having a coffee as a family. The workers seems slightly overwhelmed by the amount of people coming in (and even said as much to another customer) due to the activity surrounding the scarecrow trail, but were mostly friendly and efficient. We were served very quickly! The interior is lovely and very welcoming and homey which as a family we appreciated. The only thing that let it down slightly for us was the fact that some of the produce is not home made and so the workers were unable to say what each item contained, as a family with some serious allergies this wasn't great, which is why we only had coffee. Would definitely come and visit here again for a drink though!

I had been visiting a nearby wooden furniture shop with a friend when we stumbled across Pumpkinz hidden away behind Draycott Mill.It took a while to be served (only one person working and quite busy) and even though we had been waiting at the counter when the waitress arrived and the phone rang, she chose to answer the phone rather than serve us but when we were eventually served it was all very friendly.As it was quite busy inside, we chose to sit outside in the courtyard which was lovely and tranquill. The food was very tasty and well presented and we could just watch the world go by.

My friend am i had lunch at pumpkinz today. Even though the soup was not home made it was very nice. Chicken and veg/ tomatoe and peppers/ and leek and potato ours tasted home made . We where served with in ten mins of arriving, which is good when you are on a lunch break. They have a good balance of food and service here and it makes a refreshing change.

Really lovely food and coffee, also sells non food items like really nice birthday cards and candles. It's all nice quality :-) The good is really nicely presented and tastes fab. A must visit if looking for a family friendly coffee shop with a nice atmosphere.

Had a fantastic afternoon tea here today - great value for money and delicious cakes, tea and elderflower presse ... Lovely atmosphere as well as traditional china crockery ... Well worth a visit !

Lovely coffee shop/tea room, not 'cafe' is hidden to the rear of Draycott Mills. Homemade cake, fresh sandwiches, light bites, fresh coffee and a selection of teas. Clean and comfy, where you can relax and enjoy the food, after visiting the other small shops in the Mill. We have been several times and always enjoy the food, service and surroundings. There are also small unusual gifts to buy.

Lovely coffeeshop with gentle relaxing atmosphere and a nice selection of slightly different gifts. Owner is a lovely lady - Sandra

Pumpkinz is situated in Draycott Mills, just off the Market Square. It's tucked out of the way in a courtyard but well worth a walk aound the corner.Bev, the owner is hospitality itself and the food is amazing. Very rarely, when you see a sign for homemade cakes are they actually made in the home - but these are. The coffee and walnut is to die for as is the carrot cake, the lemon drizzle, the orange and poppy seed........................I could go on.A great range of paninis and salads are also on offer for those with a savoury palate. I can recommend the goats cheese and onion marmalade.Pumpkinz has easy chairs for a relaxing bite and pine tables if you wish to eat more formally and afterwards you can browse the gifts of homemade jams and chocolate pizzas, as well as the hilarious cards on offer for sale.I was really surprised that I had to get trip advisor to tick the box as this is the first review as it has been open for a while.Try it, you really won't be disappointed.
