Absolutely pathetic place. There is NO sign that dogs are not allowed, I went to the shop was ready to pay and they Didn’t even allow me to pay and leave???? Zero common sense and zero customer service. Put a sign and learn how to run a business.

The food here was delicious, I would strongly reccomend the braised beef. The staff were very friendly and prompt in serving us, thank you. We had to sit outside as we had our dog with us, it would have been nice to sit inside as it did get chilly. We took our deserts back with us, really tasty!!!

Called in today on our motorbike ride.. 5 minutes after the half past four finish.. We needed a warm drink inside us, as we were clearly frozen.. They said, they stopped serving food at half past four, that's fine, can we just have a coffee to warm us up.. No.. the secong girl said we've stopped serving.. Amazed, so we just sat there for 10 minutes while they finished up.. I have daughters their age.. I hope their fathers are proud of them, we just needed a warm drink before we set off again, that's why we stopped for a warm and hospitality.. Shame really, looks a lovely place.

Found this cafe on the way back from a visit to the (very) nearby Peak Wildlife Park, and am so happy we did! The food was really good hearty portions that were very reasonably priced. We had beef lasagne, minced beef and onion pie (a special on the day) and red onion rings. Everyone was very friendly and the little shop within was also stocked with great gift items. Will certainly be back!

Came in on a very busy Saturday afternoon 1pm, they found a perfect spot for the four of us (two young children). Took about 10 mins for them to take our order which was ok, then the food came out really quickly. Had the soup of the day with chips- best chips I’ve had in years! Family had chips, fish, quiche, everyone very happy. Paid up and price felt good value for the lovely meal we had. Thanks team!

This really should be 5 star but honestly they are not doing themselves favours hiring young staff that don't care . They attempted to make 2 lattes twice, both sent back and we ended up opting for tea. While the lattes were hot, the coffee tasted like they had reused coffee grounds or not cleaned out the machine properly. The young girl was tapping the used grounds into a bin lightly and not ensuring that it was clean of used grounds. The second attempt was to just add one shot of coffee and add lots of milk, Lol.. The supervisor did sort it out and we did see them cleaning coffee machine out later on. I can't stress enough that hiring trained barristas and serving well made coffee can make and break businesses. They were prompt in sorting out issues and handled the situation well. The food was hot and delicious. My other peeve; Placing a family with 2 toddlers (one mid tantrum, in the table next to us, where every one else there were older couples eating quietly. This was despite having another area to use but they chose to close that part of the cafe off and start cleaning it! It doesn't take much to spoil the atmosphere and they should be more observant about customers space and enjoyment in their cafe.

The Cottage Kitchen Country Café is a delightful spot known for its friendly staff and freshly cooked, homestyle food. All the dishes we had were superb, hit, freshly cooked and definitely not a typical cafe quality- these are definitely restaurant level dishes in terms of taste. The relaxed atmosphere makes it an ideal place to unwind, whether you're enjoying a meal or just stopping by for their impressive selection of high-quality cakes. It's a must-visit for anyone seeking a cozy and satisfying café experience.

Don't get me wrong, the food is usually great... I just didn't get any. If busy it can be very slow. Arrived at 09.30 and left at 10.15, as even if breakfast had arrived there would have been no time to eat it. They were still happy to charge £18 for an orange juice, coffee and no breakfast.

We received a voucher as a Christmas present and decided to use it on a High Tea. We booked a time for the tea as the website recommends booking in advance. The whole experience from being greeted by a lovely young lady and being made to feel so welcome right through to paying the bill at the end was lovely. The high tea itself was absolutely delicious, the sandwiches so fresh, the savouries warm with the most delightful pastry and the cakes were lovely. I would definitely recommend this place , it suits all palates and we will most certainly be returning .

A really enjoyable place to visit any time of the day. We stayed nearby just for a couple of days and had breakfast here twice and lunch and it was just faultless. We came from London and the prices were comparable to the south, food is high quality and of the perfect portion sizes. Coffee very good. I didn't buy anything from the shop but they had a vast range of excellent jams, chutneys and sauces available. The presentation and cleanliness is exceptional, including the toilets, and the staff really bring everything together. Very friendly and attentive, we even returned from a walk in the Peak District at 4:10pm and they still happily welcomed us in and served us food despite closing at 4:30pm! This would be unheard of in many kitchens so close to closing, so big appreciation to you guys. We would definitely visit again if staying nearby or driving through on another occasion :) Thank you!
