The Chakra Lounge- Bakewell in Derbyshire Dales

Called in last Saturday and asked if they were dog friendly as we had our dog with us,they said they were so we got a table just for coffee and Cake.Ginger Mocha, Americano and a Almond crossaint. Everything was lovely, staff were very friendly. We even went back again for lunch.Chicken curry and rice plus a spicy chicken panine with salad and more coffee. Even though they were busy we were served very quickly and everything was again lovely. Well worth a visit if your in Bakewell and we will definitely be going back again.

Lovely people, fabulous menu, super delicious Indian fusion food and drinks, good spot, nice relaxing vibe and grebackground music. Great vegan options. Would definitely recommend and we'll be back!

If I could I would give this place 7 out of 5. We both had Makhani chicken and it was absolutely incredible. Altho just off the square it is far enough from the crowds to not be heaving on a weekday lunch or appeared to be so. Service was good, tge place had a nice atmosphere and tge food outstanding.

Fantastic vegetarian brunch - delicious food, great service. Lovely complimentary cakes, highly recommend and it was dog friendly.

We really enjoyed having lunch here. It was tasty, fresh and authentic. There is a good choice of things to eat and drink. The staff are friendly and helpful.

From the moment we entered and were greeted by a lovely smiling, friendly girl on the till - to the moment we left and again got a big warm friendly goodbye - this place made us feel welcomed and well looked after. The coffee was great and the cakes some of the best I've ever tasted

Amazing food and drinks! Never tasted flavours like these before! Would definitely recommend visiting. The staff are very friendly and helpful too! Would also recommend booking as it does get busy!

Was just visiting Bakewell and thought I'd try The Chakra for lunch, what great place to go. The foods fresh and tasty and the staff couldn't be more friendly and helpful. Can't wait to come again.

The value for money was incredible, I had the chickpea curry with naan, which is listed as a simple recipe but I found it to be far from simple in such an amazing way, never before have I thought that sweet fruits such as blueberries , grapes and raspberries would go together so well with a chickpea curry! I highly recommend this dish and can’t wait to come back to try different things too! Also the oat milk cappucino was perfect, all in all everything about this food experience exceeded my expectations, it’s just a shame I live so far away from this place and that really is the only bad thing I have to say :)

We walked all around Bakewell late afternoon looking somewhere for lunch and everywhere was closing but then we came across Chakra and it once just was we needed! Great atmosphere, food and friendly staff.

Lovely food and atmosphere. Very unique menu and nice sized portions too! There was lots more I wanted to try on the menu and my family all enjoyed their food as well.

Super friendly staff! Food was flavoursome, the spicey beans were on point! The sweet potato and caramel latte was actually divine! Would definitely recommend if you’re ever in Bakewell

Went by chance, will definitely go back regularly on purpose ☝🏻😋 The food, drinks, service and pricing were all wonderful An amazing experience and great venue 👍🏻

A great little find. Delicious and fresh food with delicate favours. Something for everyone. A twist on what you would expect. Service was excellent. Would recommend

So good we ate there twice in one weekend! Relaxed in a bright and cheerful setting right in the centre of Bakewell. The chickpea curry was totally delicious, well flavoured and nice thick sauce. The poke bowl was spicy hot, delicious and the kofta were tasty. Plenty of side salads with both, and a cup of mint tea to wash it down. What a great addition to Bakewell!

My first visit today and I will definitely be back There’s lots of seating , it’s roomy and light and very relaxing. The menu was interesting, we only had coffee today but I really enjoyed my cortado and I will definitely be back to try some food. I love that I could enjoy a coffee with my dog today.

Since me and my four-legged friend are inseparable I am always on the look out for a combination of dog friendly/vegan good food places and Chakra fits the bill. Tasty food with an Indian twist and VEGAN options- dog allowed. Yay! So happy. I carry a little blanket with me and they are happy for her to sit in the window on her blanket -( bear in mind she is a small, non- shedding well behaved dog!)

I've been here a number of times, most recently for a birthday lunch. It's a simple menu that doesn't change much but that's OK because everything is delicious. I've taken a number of friends and everyone leaves very happy. Friendly and helpful staff, delicious food and fabulous hot and cold drinks beautifully presented.

super friendly staff with great food that includes good vegan options our dog was made very welcome.

Excellent lunch - as good a Bundobust for vegetarian/vegan street food. Really friendly staff Absolutely delicious!

Was disappointed with the drinks. Refreshing drink ordered, which was described as a fruit flavour with soda, but it was just a syrup topped up with Sprite rather than soda water. Couldn't stir it due to so much ice (and, therefore, very little drink) and some frozen fruit. The straw got so soggy very quickly that it couldn't be used. Extremely expensive for what I actually received.

This is a great little cafe/restaurant a couple of minutes from the central area of Bakewell. The food was very tasty and staff friendly.

Oh my god! Everyone go here for not only the AMAZING food but the BEAUTIFUL vibes & kind & gorgeous staff. We turned up at closing time, they fed us with food from heaven, amazing flavours, generous portions. Food and people deserving appreciation. Thank you and like Arnie says, we'll be back! X

Tea, coffee, light lunch, dessert, The Chakra Lounge is consistently good! Great food, excellent service, this is a lovely bright, calm, very clean place to relax.

We absolutely loved our visit! The atmosphere is really relaxed and welcoming, and the staff are really friendly. The food is delicious - the nutty ben toast in particular! We would definitely recommend for anyone visiting Bakewell.

Absolute gem Lovely staff, nice vibes around the place and the small plates were incredibly tasty. I like trying different things so a sandalwood milkshake was right up my street. Will definitely be back

Visiting the area and we noticed The Chakra Lounge just off the busy shopping area, it seemed pretty busy so we gave it a go and were so glad we did! The interior is colourful and fun, just like the food. Friendly service with an...

Popped in here on a day trip to Bakewell. Great tasting freshly prepared Indian themed food. It is not a curry house so don’t expect a chicken madras. We had the smashed avocado sangam, Indian currywurst and samosa chat. All of it very tasty and...

Absolutely fabulous food, the best vege and vegan that we have had for ages. Good portions and reasonably priced. Lots of options and excellent meat substitutes, so you wouldn’t have to be vegetarian to enjoy a really good meal here. And great cakes too. Great...

Wonderful food. Exceptional flavours Friendly staff. Lovely ambiance Would visit again. A taste of India in the Peak District

We had a lovely masala chai on Saturday here, so went back for breakfast on the Sunday. It was amazing, and my wife thought the Samosa Chaat was the second best breakfast she'd had. It was so good we wished we had time to come...

Whilst visiting Bakewell we spotted this lovely cafe and had a look at the menu whilst getting a drink. It all sounded so delicious we came back the next morning for breakfast. We were not disappointed. We opted for some Indian dishes. The samosa chaat...

Excellent as always, my favourite vegetarian eatery. Has an updated menu for more delicious choices. The ambiance is always wonderful too.

Fantastic range of vegan/gluten free cakes. We didn’t have lunch but the Indian- inspired dishes looked amazing. Great coffee. Dog and muddy boot friendly. Lovely sunny location.

Yum yum in our tums. Please go here as it is amazing. Delicious vegan food. Wish we lived closer! Thank you

We sat upstairs as it was extremely busy, we had no problem with that initially, but it was freezing! We had to keep our coats on. Our drinks arrived, a pot of tea and an americano. We asked for cold milk with the coffee, of...

Really nice food spicy but fresh. Loved the samosa and the porridge Sunny spacious restaurant with lovely staff

We always feel really well looked after here. The staff customer service skills and food quality are exemplary. Our favourite vegetarian eatery.

5 ⭐️ veggie lunch. Thank you. Feel like the tide is slowly changing after years of being short changed for dining out. Blown away by choice, service and food. Will be back!

Four non-vegan foodies enjoyed a fabulous lunch today. The food was very tasty and there was something to suit everyone. The service was excellent and the ambience was relaxed, welcoming and cosy. We will be back.

A wet and grey afternoon in Bakewell, brightened up by a visit to the Chakra lounge in Bakewell. Our first visit, cheerful and friendly staff , dog friendly and welcoming vibe 😊 The food was delicious , beautifully presented , very tasty and good sized...

Met with a few friends from work for a late lunchtime nibble. Really enjoyed our visit. Friendly staff. Good service and good food. Excellent ambiance and was warm and cosy. Will definitely return.

Food delicious - why have a sandwich when you can eat here?! So many different delicious flavours in a bowl. Staff were wonderful and the service was great.

Our very first visit had a fantastic vegetarian meal can definitely recommend the pakoda bagel burger and the punjabi chilli toasti melt. The latte 's were lovely too. The staff are really lovely and welcoming so friendly. We will definitely be regular customers .We have...

Although not exclusively vegan, there are plenty of vegan option on the menu. My wife and I enjoyed a spicy Samosa Chaat and Nachodums. Vegan cake is also available and the Turmeric and Cardamon Latte goes down a treat. I found the staff friendly and...

This place is a little gem if you like Indian food, the menu isn't huge but after 2 visits, I recommend everything! I've been with 2 different groups of friends, the staff are friendly and helpful, the food is all really tasty and nicely presented....

What a find! As a gluten-free vegan who is disappointed eating out 90% of the time in the UK this was one of my holiday highlights. Superb flavours and pistachio almond chocolate cake to die for. Green tea and coffee also up there with the...

We popped in for a coffee but stayed for lunch. A lovely cafe, staff very friendly. Food is delicious as well as the coffee. Comfy surroundings.

It is so amazing the menu is delicious and everything and all the workers are amazing. It is the best cafe ever!

Absolutely loved my visit here! Thanks so much for your delicious vegan options - I had the spinach and chickpea curry, a vegan chocolate flapjack and an oat milk mocha, which was really tasty. Such lovely and friendly staff too, thank you :)

It was so nice to have lots of vegan options, we had the avocado toast but looking around at all the other colourful meals all choices are yummy! Staff were super friendly and the venue is exceptional clean and very pretty.

I arrived in Bakewell before the shop that I needed to visit had opened and quite by chance I had parked very close to The Chakra Lounge. I hadn't been before, so I thought I'd have a coffee and pastry, as I hadn't had breakfast....

Newly opened. There are other Chakra restaurants in both Sheffield and up the road in Buxton. Something of note, not identical menus. Depending on which one you go to, there are the usual favourites but something different to try too. So here I tried the...

We ordered a hot choc and iced mocha. Lovely, well made drinks, nice atmosphere and friendly staff. Few niknaks for sale there too, I bought a lovely bracelet.

Great selection of drinks and food. Dirty chai was so good, tasted like homemade Indian tea. Samosa chaat was soo delicious, full of flavour and so tasty. Definitely worth trying out

Looking for somewhere quick to eat about 2.30, I found a free parking spot and The Chakra Lounge was across the road. Lucky me. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The food was well presented and tasty. A great addition to Bakewell. I will...
