Route 66 Coffee Lounge Limited in Derbyshire Dales

Stayed overnight at Matlock bath and this chippy is unbelievable great value for money. The chips were freshly cooked and the mini fish filled the plate and served with a nice warm pot of mushy peas all for £7, excellent food and service

Amazing food, we've been coming to Matlock regularly for years and only tried this one for the first time today and would easily say it is one of the best I've had until now. We'll wait until the next visit to see if is consistently the same.

Ate the food too fast to take a picture! Us and our small children, battered fish among the best batter I've had, nuggets, pie and chips. Great service, very spacious and clean inside.

Went during Matlock illuminations. The kids loved it, and I would say the food they had was some of the best they can remember from a chippy. Loads of staff, very attentive, great service, very clean. Recommended.

Omg I've never had such a perfect fish and chips rhe food is freshly cooked so red hot the fish cooked to perfection the service unbeatable and the price is spot on this I'd definitely 12 out of 10

Lovely friendly staff, great food and even some free lollies for the kids at the end of the meal. The best chippy we’ve been to in Matlock Bath - and there’s plenty of choice!

Rude staff, constant eye rolls. Not worth it

Michelin starred fish and chips and mushy peas, curry sauce and a childs sausage and chips with curry sauce(or other) and you also get a drink of choice. The fish was fresh, the batter lovely and crispy, chips very tasty and mushy peas, curry sauce perfect. Excellent service from the staff they couldn't do enough for you very Welcoming Very clean and tidy. We very much enjoyed it. A very big Thank you 👏 Deserves more than 5stars

Best fish and chips in Matlock, very reasonable price, very friendly staff, i do really recommend them, u wont be disappointed.

This chip shop is a must! Wonder fresh cooked chips and fish, if we lived in matlock area this would be one of our best chip shops we would eat at. Even my daughter who doesn't like fish unless it tastes really fresh and she loved it. Staff very helpful and understanding and polite. They couldn't do enough to help us, Very clean too. I had a small (mini fish) and it was big enough to feed two of me, my mum had the same and she couldn't eat all her fish. We will definitely eat here again and I have told my sisters to eat here when and if they ever visit matlock bath or matlock. Thank you for the lovely food and help.

Great fish and chips. Arrived at lunchtime and it wasn’t too busy. Best fish and chips I’ve had in a while.

Welcoming , super clean , well priced , great service , excellently cooked , well presented , 6 empty plates sorry I left a few chips lol , Thank you

Excellent food, friendl staff an absolute gem for food in Matlock. Our visit we had freshly cooked fish chips and peas. Well happy with our visit

Mean portion , frozen fish not fresh , poor quality chips ....very disappointed

Lovely service! My son really enjoyed the food from here! It was lovely & fresh with generous portion sizes! Was really nice & clean! Thank you! 😁

Very polite and the food was perfect

Nice fish and chips. Small portion of fish, chips and peas for £6.75 which I think is a bargain compared to our fish and chips locally.

Great place to stop of when in the area.

Eating fish and chips, sitting in the sunshine, loved it.

Brilliant , delicious food , mini fish special £6 , was brilliant value 😋

Friendly staff and great service overall. I would definitely come back.

The food was lovely and the service was incredible.

Found this quite mediocre. I had take away pie and chips. The pie wasn't ready and needed to be microwaved so fair enough, the chips were soft and portion size miserly. Not sure why it is so hard to get decent chips in Matlock Bath. Will stick to the Market Place chippy in Ashbourne in future.

Michelin starred fish, chips and mushy peas with award winning staff - Lela was fabulous. The fish was fresh, batter crispy, chips tasty and mushy peas perfect. Thank you

Really bad food chicken burger was fried like wood we back to home all night vomiting Shame this food quality for this place

Great fish and chips. Friendly staff, quick service even in the peak time

Put a sign up saying haddock comes with skin on. And a arge fish was the size of a minnow. Won't be coming again.

The owner, she is very rude, disgusting attitude. Avoid this place!!!

On visiting Matlock bath, this restaurant route 66 is our very first stop on reaching Matlock bath as we know theres not another fish shop to compare with this one. The food is always hot, serves with a smile. The staff are always so polite and welcoming. I would like to say a big thank you to Lela, jade and Gazi. On our many visits we feel we have made wonderful friends. Now that spring has sprung this will be out twice weekly restaurant we will be visiting. Wishing you all the best from Bruce and Stewart travelled all the way from Nottingham.

Absolutely fabulous fish and chips, one of the best chip shops in matlock bath. We always enjoy coming here fabulous staff jade , Lela and Gazi. Food always hot and tasty. Definitely recommend.

Chips and veggie burger was tasty. Delicious! Excellent customer service. Great vibes! 10/10

Writing this whilst eating in the restaurant and can assure you it is the best fish and chips in Matlock Bath(yes, I’ve tried it all) plus, they also serve freshly cooked fish and hot chips on proper porcelain plates and cutlery instead of toothpicks!!

The food was just what we wanted - freshly cooked cod with great chips & sides.

Parking for cars and bikes lots of chippys lots of little nick nack shops. icecreams, rock,candyfloss,amusements,cable cars.lots of walks. canoe slalem in the river and boats in the river. So much to do for one little place.motorbike clothing shop Aswell.i would like to complain to the council though they have shut the public toilets it's rediculous you should be ashamed. Some cafes and shops toilets so you won't be caught short.

It was definitely a very good quality lunch. Absolutely fantastic fish and chips with mushy pea at a reasonable price. Congrats!

Great place to have some relaxation and eat a great meal.

Great place to sit and have a beer, coffee or just a nice cup of Englisch brew ! Enjoy the sight of all the bikers and relax.

DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS PLACE! They kept us waiting 1hour and 30mins for a simple order without apology. When the food arrive sit was cold, had the wrong toppings, was over cooked and poor tasting. When we discussed the order with the restaurant and just eat they refused us a refund or any apology for this poor effort. I wouldn't order from here Ever again!

I came down for a ride out with friends, we decided to give Route 66 a try and we was very pleased with the service and the food. I had a burger, the presentation was lovely & the burger was delicious. my friends tried the breakfasts which was also very good. Will definitely be back again & I look forward to trying the fancy cakes they have!

The Town, the Road and the restaurant are fantastic. never been to a place quite like matlock. It's a seaside town no where near a seaside... with bikes everywhere. I'm not a rider but we stopped in for a Burger and the atmosphere was fantastic. if anyone in the Uk is looking for a nice destination for a cruise the Route 66 Coffee Lounge is the place to go!! Just look at my photos,

The place was clean and the food served hot and fresh the frontage could do with sprucing up to make it look more appealing

Directed in as an "overspill" from Kostas next door. (same owner). Great service - well presented and good menu. I look forward to trying their Full English Breakfast soon. Staff were very positive and friendly.

A hot mid-summer’s day … and, after walking over High Tor from Matlock, much in need of a drink. Didn’t want to sit outside in the sun, and some of the likely places didn’t have air-conditioning. And then we came across Route 66, midway along the parade of shops and eateries that comprise the long crescent of Matlock Bath. Newly opened – so new, in fact, that not all of its signage is yet in place – we decided to call in. It was clean and welcoming. “Take a seat near the door, there …” suggested the proprietor, as he saw how hot we were, “… there’s a nice breeze”. And so there was. The coffee soon came, and we relaxed, cooled down and rested. “Fresh coffee beans,” we were reassured and – yes – the coffee was good. Although it’s nominally a coffee lounge, it’s perhaps fair to say that it’s more like an American diner inside, and the menu reflects that too. The all-day breakfast looked good, and I guess we’ll give that a go on a future visit. Perhaps bring our grandchildren along too. The toilets were modern and clean. And the server gladly refilled our water bottle before we set off for the return hike. We’ll definitely be back …
