The Flying Childers in Derbyshire Dales

I have lived in Derbyshire all my life and of course, this is a case of ‘what’s on your doorstep’ you hardly ever consider! My friend arranged for myself and another friend to meet up and discuss all things countryside and veer onto other topics, at a rate of 19 to the dozen - as you do when you have not met up for a while. Walking into this little place was like stepping into a storybook … it has an astonishing atmosphere - I felt I was walking into somewhere I’d been before and it was so wonderful and cozy. We ate … the food was gorgeous and I don’t know who has put four ££££ signs at the top, but I can tell you, it’s not expensive whatsoever. I had a lovely posh toastie, with goat’s cheese, sweet pepper, rocket and tomato chutney and it was delicious … certainly filled a gap (was quite tempered with pudding). What was so nice was the fact that the area we were in was really snug and you had no choice but to say ‘Hello’ to those around you … so if you’re a miserable sod, this isn’t the place for you. I blummin loved it and will definitely go again!

This is a wonderful pub. Lovely food and a nice roaring fire. The perfect stop off on our walk. Great selection of beers. I’m just gutted we couldn’t stay longer! A must visit

We go out as group once a fortnight and have visited several pubs in the area for lunch. Everything we ordered was delicious and reasonably priced. I would definitely recommend the Childers. The best pub food of all the places we’ve visited. Will definitely return.

Amazing service from Hannah and amy couldn’t do enough for us would highly recommend! And will definitely be returning!

This is an absolutely gorgeous pub. Small, unspoilt, award winning for its unspoiled qualities. There was a roaring log fire when we visited, the landlord was friendly and attentive. Great beer and food was simple but definitely creative. We realised on arrival that we’d visited before, a few years ago. I would urge folks to make a special effort to visit.

Il est vrai que nous sommes dans un endroit très touristique mais enfin......J'ai été très déçu de mon plat (Jacket potatoes). ll est vrai que souvent les français sont critiques sur la nourriture anglaise, mais cela fait plus d'un que je suis dans le pays et que peine à manger correctement...... Par contre le décor va bien et le décor du site est superbe.....

Great choice of fab vegetarian food and well priced drinks including cocktails .. laid back proper local pub with no sirs and graces… really real look great for walkers and dogs alike with free homemade treats for your fur baby and toys to borrow… woukd recommend 100%

Excellent service and advice on selection of teas to enjoy. Deliciously fresh made sandwiches and desserts. Would highly recommend the afternoon tea here

Came for a family get together. We had already booked and analysed the menu from the one we were emailed. Some of us have dietary requirements and preferences so when seating we told the waitress. She was very rude and cut us off saying ‘can you let me speak’ as she wanted to give us the menu. However, as we already seen them prior to the visit we just wanted to empathise the importance of our dietary needs as soon as possible and did not need to second check the menu. She was very impatient as we were discussing the dietary needs and made us feel uncomfortable. Considering you pay £45 per person and it suppose to be an experience, it was not enjoyable. The food and bottomless tea choices was lovely and the rest of the team were great. However, the negative at the start ruined the afternoon tea experience for us.

Lovely afternoon tea ...treat for 30th wedding anniversary. Friendly welcome...lovely setting!!! Table set with Wedgwood crockery. Good selection of Teas and coffee or if like me soft drink. Can upgrade with " bubbles"!! Nice mackerel starter....selection of sandwiches and savoury scones...mango " amuse bouche" and on to a lovely selection of sweet Scones and cakes!!! O my......!! Boxed up any we couldn't manage!!! Lovely!!!

Afternoon tea at the Flying Childers was delicious! The setting was beautiful and the staff were friendly and made me feel right at home. They recommended various teas which complimented the food perfectly. The sandwiches were served on soft bread and had delicious fillings and the desserts and scones were Amazing! I highly recommend the Flying Childers when visiting Chatsworth House.

Best afternoon tea we’ve ever had and amazing service from Paul. Miles better than the Ritz thanks for such a great time

There is nothing I love more than an afternoon tea that ticks all the boxes: ambience, beautiful crockery, quality savoury bites and scones, and of course delicious tea. This afternoon tea delivered! Eating off the beautiful Wedgewood crockery is a real treat, and even better is that the food is so delicious. The knowledge and helpfulness of the staff is wonderful, our server Adele promised that this afternoon tea would wow us, and she did not disappoint. She gave us personalized tea recommendations, which were spot on. Her enthusiasm for her job contributed to a truly special afternoon tea experience. We loved everything about Chatsworth House and the gardens, and this delightful afternoon tea was the perfect complement to an outstanding day out. Highly recommended!

What a lovely afternoon tea, the food was excellent, I really liked the other little touches like the mackerel pate to start and sobet cleanser between sandwiches and cake/scones. The wedgewood tea set was beautiful and staff were warm, friendly and engaging. They couldn’t do enough for you and made great tea recommendations. The restaurant decor was a little tired and it was tucked away from the main house in the stable building overlooking a courtyard.

Thank you to Adele and Paul for hosting us today for a delayed birthday treat for my mother in law. Superb service so thoughtful and personable lovely food in a great setting. Is probably a little overpriced - but it is a special treat in a lovely location .

We visited the Flying Childers for afternoon tea to celebrate my Mum’s 60th birthday.

We had afternoon tea there today, a delayed experience, due to covid. The eating area is delightful with a high vaulted ceiling and a glass wall so you can see into the courtyard. The staff are exceptional, attentive, efficient and cheerful. The starter of salmon gravalax was all style but minimal substance. The selection of finger sandwiches was excellent with lots of different tastes to tickle the taste buds, but where's the savoury options? A slice of quiche, a duck scotch egg? The tiny sweet offerings were interesting and the scones with strawberry jam and lashings of cream were delicious. Top ups of coffee and tea, as much as you want.Overall a lovely experience, but please consider offering the savoury alternative .

My wife and I visited here on 6th July and had champagne afternoon tea to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary. Our waiter for the day was Will and his service was exceptional, the food was lovely and they made done changes as my wife doesn’t eat fish. All of the food was so fresh and the deserts awesome. They even made a little extra chocolate brownie with a written celebration message on for us. We have been to many afternoon teas but one of the things that made this so special was the beautiful Wedgwood fine China plates, cups etc.

We visited for afternoon tea as a special treat having got married a few days before. We had a wonderful experience. The service was excellent and the afternoon tea itself was lovely. Really unique cake and sandwich options which tasted delicious. They were very accommodating for me as a vegetarian and made special options as opposed to just giving extra egg sandwiches as a lot of places do! The only downside was that we put that it was our honeymoon on the special occasions bit of the booking form. We noticed two other couples being given plates with chocolate work saying congratulations, happy birthday etc (with some extra goodies!) but our special occasion must have been missed. Otherwise it was a perfect experience.

All very pleasant and we were lucky to have an afternoon tea gifted to us as a present. Nice ambiance although service ok but maybe not as friendly or engaging as other places I’ve been. Sandwiches and cakes were delicious, scones maybe not as light and fluffy as I would have expect. Overall very nice but didn’t have the wow factor I’ve experienced elsewhere.

LOVE this pub. My favourite in Derbyshire. We had to sit outside because of obvious BUT service and friendly welcome was warm as usual. Thank you.

The service was impeccable, the young man waiting on tables is a credit to the Chatsworth household team. Thank you for a lovely afternoon tea. The flying Childers is well worth a visit, good value for money in perfect a surrounding.

Gorgeous afternoon tea in beautiful surroundings. The cakes were to die for! I really enjoyed the smoked salmon starter too. The lady who served us was just lovely. Definitely worth the money. Would love to come again at Christmas :)

Very expensive for the experience. Was invited by 2 friends for afternoon tea. We arrived at 11:30 nice staff , but that was it. The sandwiches (4 fingers) think it was the day before bread very dry, the scones were a joke and the coffee was from a machine.The salmon to start was nice but a very small portion would have been better if it had been served with a side of crust less brown bread & butter. the finale was the cake that seemed to be days old. £50 p.p. With a class of champagne.I sent an email to Chatsworth customer service, they say they will reply in 5 days....3 weeks later no response.

This was birthday treat from my family. I was not disappointed. The staff were very attentive and could explain what afternoon tea was all about. We started with a starter which was most which was delicious. We then went on some very tasty sandwiches, chicken Cornation, ham and wholegrain mustard. The scones fruit and plain and served with homemade strawberry Jam and clotted cream. The mini desserts tray was so yummy and well thought out. Chocolate and cherry tart, mango and white chocolate all went well together. Finally was served beautiful shared dessert that I took home. The teas were refreshing. Thanks for really lovely experience.

Popped in after walking the dogs. Dogs were very welcome. Pub was very covid safe. Tried 2 different real ales and they were delicious. Ordered a Vegan and veggie burger - both were lovely.The customers and Richard behind the bar were friendly and made the lazy afternoon very enjoyable.

The Flying Childers at Chatsworth is in a lovely setting and the cafe itself is bright, airy and has a high ceiling. The cafe is nothing special though. The tables were appropriately distanced to take account of current circumstances. The service by the waiting staff is very good indeed. The afternoon tea seems to be very popular. There was certainly a wide choice of different teas - many of which we have never heard of. The 'tea' begins with a nicely presented bit of salmon with pickled fennel. See picture of menu. Then follows a small portion of hand cut sandwiches. I was looking forward to the next bit - scones with cream and jam. However, the most disappointing thing of all was the size of the scones - they were mini scones (see picture and we had two each. Next up are the cakes. Once again, these were delicious and the portion was probably just about adequate for two people - and given how many calories they contain. Finally, there is a small piece of Buxton opera cake to finish off with.Whilst it is true to say that what was served was nice and of good quality - but at £37.50 per person - this is really not worth it. Adding a glass of Laurent-Perrier Cuvee Rose comes in at £50.00 per person. The other disappointment is that the savouries and cakes were served at the table on plates - I think the use of a table stand would have enhanced the presentation. Overall, the cost of £75.00 for afternoon tea for two was just not worth the price tag. I think that we were primarily paying for the location.

Hubby had booked this as an Anniversary treat and we were not disappointed. As a person who drinks infusions every day and has visited many 5 star establishments for afternoon tea I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the teas and also the entree, sandwiches and cake. Thoroughly enjoyable and excellent customer service too.

We visited Flying Childers for a special celebration, Laura and Tash were brilliant hosts for our afternoon tea here. Trying the various teas whilst enjoying lovely sandwiches and cakes was a real pleasure!

Thoroughly enjoyable afternoon tea. Arrived a little early, however the staff were able to accommodate us which was good. Great choice of teas and you can try as many as you want. Food excellent. Only minor issue was that we heard the staff telling a couple that came in after us that if there was anything they didn’t like in the menu (the afternoon tea menu is fixed) they would try and change it. We weren’t given this option and my wife would have changed the salmon given the choice. Everything else was great.

It’s a shame really, that my review is similar to so many reviews that date back quite some time. Don’t get me wrong the food was beautifully presented and of course the Chatsworth estate is the perfect surroundings. However the afternoon tea itself was not worth the £37.50. The sandwiches weren’t the best, the odd one being dry and underfilled (no option to replenish the ones we did like, like most other afternoon teas would offer, which is a shame for the price). The options for teas and coffees was very good and as mentioned before it was beautifully presented. The staff also gave a lovely touch by giving one of my group a birthday message in chocolate with a macaron on the side which made the birthday girls day. I had a lovely afternoon with friends but wouldn’t recommend or return.

Lovely choice of teas but the food served very disapointing. Who would like to pay £36 for egg sandwich, cucumber sandwich and one other beetroot. Had to ask for salmon sandwich as was on menu. One of our party was not a vegetarian , again had to request a ham sandwich, one finger size. Not at any time where we asked if we would brown instead of white bread.

Booked 2 months ago after checking that they do provide gluten free afternoon tea. Reminded again 4 days before.The staff were very friendly and helpful and said that my food would be fine along with the teas for husband and 2 friends.Starter for 3 was soup plus smoked salmon and brie canapes. Soup had gluten but I couldn't understand why I got cucumber topped with hummus and 2 mini bread squares with some dry Turkey!The GF cakes were lovely and the kind waitress found more for me after I complained about 2 small concrete GF scones! Awful!Ok overall but certainly not worth more than £15 at most.Let's down a beautiful house that was lovely for Christmas.

So disappointed....sandwiches had next to no filling and were tasteless. Beautiful china crockery but given one small teapot between two people, barely one cup each. Water ordered but not served. Scones and cakes much nicer. Over priced and very poor service, would not recommend.

What a lovely family experience! We went to Chatsworth in the summer as a family, not only was the food amazing but the staff were very accomdating and attentive and especially made the childrens experience extra special.

First impressions fabulous Was exactly what we were looking for to celebrate a special occasion Beautiful china crockery and lush surroundings-you feel as if you are sitting outside with the floor to ceiling glass The tea was delicious and plenty of it and made even more special with a “birthday plate”The staff were very friendly and efficient Would definitely recommend

Wonderful afternoon tea! Me and my husband visited and it’s a lovely little place. I loved the tea pots and cups just beautiful and the food was delicious. Highly recommend

This was a very special place to have a delightful afternoon tea. The service was excellent and the food very tasty and varied. Most excellent choice of Teas also

Can’t believe how much was fantastic, very very warm welcome from new visitors and kindness staffs. Excellent experience of having afternoon tea in the flying children restaurant at chatworth .

What a fantastic restaurant for afternoon tea to mark a special family birthday. The 3 of us had the afternoon tea and a glass of champagne. The restaurant is very smart, traditional cutlery, wedgewood plates and teapots and very unique good knives and forks.The waiters are very friendly and there is music playing in the background for an added ambience.The restaurant itself has lovely tables very light and airy with tall windows and very traditional stone. A lovely way to spend a couple of hours I hope to go back again soon. Very close to the chatsworth gift shop and we very much enjoyed a walk to the very top afterwards to take in the beautiful views. How I loved chatsworth for the day An experience I will remember for a long time.

A lovely Afternoon Tea experience. Wonderful atmosphere, attentive service, delicious food. We will certainly return.

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our experience at The Flying Childers. It was lovely from the moment we walked through the door. We were warmly welcomed, the ambience is elegant, and the staff was exceptional. Every bite was fantastic and the menu is generous. I highly recommend this experience.

A belated xmas pressie with my best friend. We had the house, garden, parking and tea for two combination gift card and it proved to be an excellent day, even though the sun sadly didn’t shine but it stayed dry. The starter of salmon and caviar was a refreshing opener. The sandwiches were tasty and fresh and more were offered which we took advantage of. The choice of teas were tasty and a good variety. The cakes were delicious and scones fresh. We asked for more fruit scones rather than cheese and were duly obliged. The staff were lovely and the manager very helpful when we asked to delay our tea so we could spend more time in the house. Overall this was a fabulous five star experience. We are lucky to enjoy tea for two often and this was by far the best for a long time. Great surroundings, staff and food. Thank you for our day.

We elected to have an escape lunch of red snapper and smoked duck excellently cooked with a light salad, just before the hoardes having ordered afternoon tea arrived. Expensive but worth it. Would recommend larger menu choice.Ambience lovely and had I not been driving would have elected to have a few glasses of wine

We took advantage of a Christmas gift of Afternoon tea at this boutique restaurant cleverly set in the stable court of Chatsworth House. Interestingly this is the third such gift we have had and this is the best by far. No tasteless sandwiches or dried out scones here! The food was imaginative, well presented and freshly made. Book in advance to be sure of a table!

After a long walk which ended at Chatsworth we were looking for somewhere to eat and noticed the Flying Childers. We sat outside and whilst we missed out on the calm sophisticated inside decor it was still wonderful sitting out in the sunshine. We still had the golden cutlery and thick cotton napkins.

Came for the Wedgwood afternoon tea. Everything was delicious & well presented. A nice selection of teas to choose from too. My only gripe is it was a touch expensive. £45 for champagne afternoon tea is a lot! However it was lovely & id go back & recommend

Visiting Chatsworth and had Cream Tea at the Flying Childers, a lovely space in the original stables. The Tea was absolutely superb. From the great choice of teas, sandwiches, scones, and cakes everything looked good and tasted even better. Staff were very helpful and pleasant. A special tea for a special place.

They freaked my daughter out. Why do you think we want to have a dump in a hall of mirrors? Gold mirror walls? Were they designed by a man called Lawrence?

Beautiful food, beautiful surroundings, excellent service. So glad we booked this, absolutely superb and an experience to remember. Oatcake with bacon and mushroom, italian sparkling rose wine and espresso coffee - lovely!

Made a reservation at the last minute really, very accommodating, easy to book. Was greeted immediately upon arrival, very quick service and lovely staff.

I took two of my daughters here (separately) for breakfast during the snow last winter. It's a wonderful treat. Beautifully laid tables with white linen cloths. Real china, seasonal treats like mulled wine, excellent choice of different teas, and wonderful breakfast dishes such as Eggs Benedict. Highly recommended. Wonderful service from friendly staff. Can't wait to try their afternoon tea!

As an afternoon tea this was good enough. Nothing spectacular or especially interesting but perfectly OK. 'Starter' of Early Grey cured salmon was perhaps the most interesting part of the meal, to be followed by the usual arrangement of sandwiches, scones and sweet dainties accompanied by endless tea from a good selection of black/green/tisanes.

Booked a table to celebrate my wife’s birthday.

Just had a fab Wedgewood Afternoon Tea! Chatsworth House is as you would expect, stunning. This weekend is the start of their Christmas season and everywhere very pretty and festive. Afternoon tea was beautiful.The food and tea sublime. The staff very friendly, professional and made it an event with great service. Cannot recommend this enough for a special treat !

It was good that I have booked for the afternoon tea. It was lovely and delisous. A good relaxing place which I fully recomment.

There are lots of great things about this place. The location (in the stable block at Chatsworth), and its stylish background music. The Wedgwood China was beautiful - three of us ordered tea and we each had a beautiful teapot and a different cup and saucer. We liked the look of the menu - a choice of teas and a brunch or afternoon tea, and for us arriving at lunchtime then brunch was perfect. It was a limited menu, but included oatcakes and eggs Benedict with rosti - enough range to keep our omnivorous teenage son and our vegetarian wheat-intolerant daughter happy.

Given the luxury of the Chatsworth house it was skmewhat disappointing to enter the Flying Childers " restaurant" which resembled more of a cafe and lacked the thoughtfulness in presentation and ambience. The music sounded like it was from a radio station and was not in keeping .disappointed as thought it would be an ideal place for a lovely high tea especially as travelling from australia . Furnishings were plain. Service was excellent. Food average. Shame that there was no choice of a plain scone.

yes it is pricey as all afternoon teas are but it is excellent and a very good treat. Served on Wedgwood which is gorgeous and a fine selection of teas plus bubbly if you really want to splash out. The restaurant is in the Old Stable block and offers nice views of the courtyard. An amuse bouche starter and then a good selection of sandwiches, scones and cakes. Very good service.

I was not expecting such a highbrow Nicoise salad at a restaurant in a manor house, but wow! Salmon, quail eggs, a delicious dressing, and tea served in Wedgewood tea cups. A wonderful treat on the gorgeous property of the Chatsworth estate.

Food is very reasonably priced and value for money. Staff very pleasant, premises very clean excellent service.

It’s a nice treat and the food is tasty but for what you get, it’s vastly overpriced. As with many things related to Chatsworth there’s a huge mark up based on it’s name and then added to that there’s the ‘served on Wedgwood pottery’ justification for the price. It’s not really even ‘Afternoon Tea at Chatsworth - let’s face it, once you’re in the restaurant you could be anywhere, with views of a busy courtyard.

This is a first class restaurant. The service is excellent, the ambiance is lovely and the food is to die for.

My friend and I tried here for a change from The Cavendish Restaurant. We hadn’t booked and was able to walk straight in. We arrived about 12:30. Within half an our though the restaurant was full so we probably hit lucky and would book in future to guarantee a table.

Chatsworth have elevated the Afternoon Tea into an unforgettable experience. The Earl Grey Smoked Salmon with Pickled Beetroot, Horseradish and Rye Bread Croutons is a delight, and this is followed by a selection of sandwiches and tartlets, cakes, scones and fancies. There is a excellent selection of teas, and all served on Wedgwood Bone China.

If you want great food then look no further clean, tidy, friendly staff and food to make you want to visit again and again if you're in Doncaster it's well worth it, please don't be put off by the fact it's in a housing estate looks can be deceiving the food however does not

Visited this restaurant for the first time for a birthday lunch with a friend. Lovely location with views of Chatsworth courtyard and very professional service. We chose the brunch option rather than the cream tea and the mushrooms on toast with champagne and the Eaton mess we choose for after we’re delicious and well presented on beautiful china. The selection of teas were equally impressive and again served in traditional china. A perfect place for a special lunch!

We came here for a treat to celebrate my daughter's birthday. The staff were very welcoming and the restaurant had a lovely atmosphere. The food was delicious and the service very good. I would recommend a visit here unreservedly.

Had mediocre Panini there before but came back as was back looking at the house . Was told that we are abooked at 2 , all booked at 3 and all booked at 4 . Owners, look at this mess as these lazy dumbsters are losing you money. The place was empty at all above times . Staff did not want to work - it’s crazy . I took these pictures just to prove the point.

A peaceful place to have an early brunch, The service and food were excellent. The surroundings were beautiful and the young lady who looked after us was amazing.

What lovely place. So peaceful and refined. Brunch was lovely, with the coffee served in Wedgewood cups. Wonderful.

Have just got back after enjoying a lovely afternoon tea experience, in the great surroundings of Chatsworth House. The staff were very attentive. There was a wide selection of teas. The food was perfect and thank you for accommodating the menu to our dietary needs. We would definitely recommend this as a lovely gift experience.

Delightful surroundings looking onto the courtyard of the stables adjacent to Chatsworth house and with the highest quality Wedgewood cutlery and crockery pleasantly and skilfully served. The menus are presented in a slightly confusing manner on two separate cards of similar appearances that paradoxically do not list everything that is available.

I took my husband here for brunch on his 50th birthday. We both had the Eggs Benedict which was divine. The service was very respectful and efficient. Would highly recommend.

This is a great place to re-charge your batteries whilst visiting the fabulous property that is Chatsworth. A small range of tasty menu items served with some delightful teas. Welcoming and professional staff helped to make this a very enjoyable visit.

Afternoon tea with bubbles, excellent. The location is stunning with great courtyard views. The food was very tasty, lots of tea choices and the crockery is superb. A great experience.

Superb afternoon tea, excellent service and fantastic food quality as always. The staff are brilliant and make you feel really special. A great choice for a special treat.

We booked afternoon tea for my mum's birthday and it was definitely a birthday treat! Due to snowy weather we were the only people in, and our waitress Rebecca was lovely, really friendly and attentive. The china is beautiful, and there are lots of different teas and coffees to choose from. The food was lovely, there is a starter as well as a variety of sandwiches, and the cakes were delicious. My mum also got some extra chocolates as it was her birthday which was a lovely surprise! It was a really nice day out, definitely worth it.

Absolutely loved our visit to the Flying Childers, staff were attentive from the start, food was delicious and a beautiful setting. I won a voucher for the afternoon tea but will definitely go back and pay. Great for a special occasion.

The food was excellent and the Espresso Martinis we had were exceptional. The service was also excellent and when we go back to Chatsworth we will certainly eat there again.

Enjoyed the food and the whole experience . Well presented in comfortable surroundings when outside the weather was dreadful

Had a fabulous afternoon tea at Flying Childers. As the photos show, the salmon, sandwiches, scones and cakes were outstanding, all served on beautiful Wedgwood crockery. A good selection of teas were available. Service was very polite and efficient and they made it very special for us when they presented a Happy Anniversary sign in chocolate!

Lovely setting with crisp tablecloths overlooking the courtyard on a very busy Christmas Market day. Wedgwood china is a beautiful touch. Gin and tonic smoked salmon was tasty but didn't get any G&T; taste. Quiche and tart were tasty and traditional sandwiches. Cakes and scones were good and a varied selection of tastes and textures. Didn't get Earl Grey flavour in panna cotta. Service was just right. Bit pricey.

Booked a table to celebrate a special birthday having seen the excellent reviews on trip advisor. The setting was lovely, overlooking the court yard & it was nice to go inside on a chilly day.

Great location for a special afternoon tea (my mum's 88th birthday) in the converted stables area. Very friendly service and top quality teas, food and wedgewood china. The traditional tea made up of gin&tonic; salmon, a selection of sandwiches and a traditional tiered plate of macaroons, panna cotta, cherry and raison scones, etc. The place felt relaxed, airy and friendly. What more could you ask?

Afternoon tea at Chatsworth was a lovely experience. The menu was varied and delicious with lots of choice of teas which could be replenished as much as required. The staff were polite and friendly and made our visit. Well worth a visit.
