The Roost in Derbyshire Dales

This is a small quaunt cafe in Tideswell close to the village centre. Friendly staff and the food was very well priced, especially compared with similar places in the area.

They accommodated a walk in of 10 people on a Saturday afternoon with no issue which was great. The food was distinctly average however, the burgers were a dry with no sauce on them and the chips were too salty.

Busy little pit stop in the heart of Tideswell, stopped for a snack after a walk , cakes were large and lovely , coffee lacking slightly (Vanilla Latte either forgot to put the Vanilla in or just not enough) wouldn't put us off returning. All the staff friendly and efficient.

A very friendly cafe with consistently good food and great service. There is a good choice of food, including vegetarian, and the upstairs seating area is particularly nice.

Visited Tideswell with the idea of finding a place for lunch. The Roost met our needs and we enjoyed our lunch

Friendly welcome, clean, great fresh tasty food and dog friendly too. We'd go back again to try the great selection on the menu. Took home a cake for later too!

Got takeaway quiche today, 2 pieces. Got home and the pieces were tiny! Literally one piece of quiche worth cut into two, feel a bit ripped off tbh. Would not go again, very poor value. Never seen quiche slices so small.

The food was lovely and plentiful, the staff were very helpful and friendly, all In all a lovely experience would definitely recommend.

We weren't sure from the outside but went in and discovered tasty cake and good service. A tasty blackcurrant and apple slice for me and we ended up with treacle tart to take away. Popped back the next day for takeaway bacon sandwiches which were thoughtfully wrapped in foil, ideal for our walk. The sausage rolls looked interesting too but we haven't got to them, yet

Love this place. Such a friendly atmosphere with great food and staff. The deli is well stocked with both home made and other locally sourced produce. The pork pies are simply to die for, and the locally made chutneys are a super special treat. Lovely.

Lovely friendly staff, great food, delicious cakes and an excellent delicatessen to tempt you on the way out!

Well what can I say about this absolute Gem of a find on entering the staff was very welcoming the friendliest ever, it was very busy and hot but the staff pulled out all the stops to take care of the customers well done!!! when I ordered, well I can only say was the most absolutely delicious breakfast, cooked to perfection and the best local produce, you couldn't get any better, they even asked if my dogs would like fresh cold water on a very hot day, this is the easiest review to write as the whole experience was perfect the staff even gave advise on the walks to go on don't change a thing The Roost l will be back soon and Thank you.

What a place, firstly it was not clean the table top and floor dirty. We asked for a sandwich to eat in which came with crisps and salad, when our sandwich was ready it was just wrapped up In a bag to take away , so they clearly did not listen to what we had asked for, so when asked why is it in a bag , and where was the salad and crisps ? They just looked at us and rolled their eyes like we had asked for something crazy.. staff rude and not very welcoming !!!! When they brought the salad and crisps , it’s was a throw together salad and crisps in a try not even on a plate !!

Nice all-day breakfasts, including a veggie option, and decent coffee. Some awesome homemade cakes, with generous portions. Beware though - no hot food is available after 2:30pm. Even if you arrive before then and they don't get around to taking your order until 2:40. Even if you're a regular customer. Even if the only reason you've arrived just before 2:30 is that they were too busy earlier. Like everywhere at the moment they're clearly rushed off their feet and desperate for more staff. My last 4 attempts to eat here have all failed, so sadly I think it's time to give up.

Dog friendly cafe with very friendly and welcoming staff. The sandwiches were delicious and the coffee was good. Will definitely visit again if visiting Tideswell😀

We visited this quaint cafe recently whilst on a mini break and it was lovely, I bought some farm shop pate for my husband which was great! I recall being served by Adam who made us both a fabulous coffee! He made us feel very...

Fantastic breakfast using top quality ingredients with service that matched the food. We would definitely come here again if we were in the local area.

We were looking for a coffee stop whilst on a course and saw this little place as we passed. On entering the premises the lovely selection of pies and cakes caught our eye however this was just a quick coffee as we were just passing...

This perfect place is nestled in the heart of Tideswell and there is nothing negative about it. Ethan and Adam run this place as any village coffee shop should be run, as a second home for all its visitors. Every time I visit I leave...

Staff completely ignored us. Eventually ordered after 10 to 15 minutes. Coffee arrived just as we were about to leave (another 15 minutes). Finished coffee before our tea cake and bacon cob arrived and so then we left. Took a while to pay. Zero interest...

We were staying in Tideswell for 2 nights to visit Chatsworth for the Christmas displays and markets and decided to have lunch before we set off. My husband had the full breakfast which he said was one of the best he has had, and he...

We were on a walking holiday based in Monksdale and passed through Tideswell on most days. We found The Roost by accident but made a point of calling in most days to buy a variety of cakes for the family to eat back at base....

We had called in for a coffee a few weeks before and were pleased to see that there were new owners. However, when I called in at a later date, I was not very impressed. The place was empty and I was told that it...

Enjoyed a well cooked & well presented full English at The Roost whilst staying in Tideswell. Good quality ingredients used & all at a reasonable price.

Live locally and always try to visit. Catered for my 50th. Dine in or take away the service is always fantastic. All the staff are great. Always wearing masks when serving food and dealing with customers inside and out. Even delivering within reach. Great place...

Popped in here for coffee and cake. Staff really not that bothered. We found a table and sat down and started looking at the drinks menu. Wandered over to the counter to check out the cakes (with masks on) and still the staff ignored us....

Passing through Tideswell, we stopped for an ice-cream and we couldn’t have been happier with The Roost. The ice-cream was yummy, my son had a delicious lemon-ripple which he said was ‘magical!’ The chap who served us was very helpful. We’ll definitely be making a...

Fantastic breakfast here Clean and comfy seating. Lovely touch to have a Derbyshire oatcake on the menu. Staff were friendly and the cakes and other menus looked delicious too.

Nice find, tea and hot chocolate good value and good. Cakes varied selection and yummy. Nice and wam inside. Several inviting deli items for sale.

Just passing and decided to give it a try as they allow dogs. Efficient service and the food arrived super quick. The quality was excellent and very impressed. Probably won't be stopping at the village again, but if I do I wouldn't hesitate to use...

Lovely little cafe, really good homemade food. Quiche grand, strawberry tart wonderful - and lots to take home including a slice of lemon and blueberry cheesecake that was delicious. Staff brilliant.

Stopped at The Roost on a very hot day whilst on a big bike ride. Staff very welcoming and provided an electric fan to cool us down! Excellent little cafe with an excellent menu and very good coffee. Recommend.

We just called in for a morning coffee, after reading the reviews on TA. We had previously used this cafe for many years and the food was excellent. Then for one small period, it was really dreadful. So pleased that the new owners have brought...

Very good food and excellent service - well positioned, clean environment. Dog friendly. Delicious ice cream to finish as well

Came in here with Dad today for tea and cake. Delicious. Saw other food coming out. All looked delicious and a nice varied menu. Will be back.

I ordered a buffet for Mother's day including sandwiches, quiche, sausage rolls, pork pies and scones. Absolutely delicious, home cooked, fresh food and such good value. Thoroughly enjoyed everything. Thank you for being so accommodating, you helped to make the day perfect 🌷

Ordered the Pulled pork burgers & fries ..Its as ready for collection bang on time Lovely presentation very generous portions ..Tasty fresh ingredients ..Highly recommend ..Great take away service

We’ve been to the Roost for both breakfasts when we could sit in and the takeaway Burger nights during lockdown. We have had excellent service every time and absolutely amazing food & drinks! Definitely worth a visit, would recommend. Thank you! X

We visit the Roost regularly, the burgers are excellent, the beef sandwiches are delicious and the children love the ice cream. The local produce is great quality as well. To top it off the service is excellent. We love it and glad it’s still open...

A fabulous little cafe selling delicious food and drinks. We are regular customers at the Roost whether it's for a quick coffee, a warming Hot chocolate on a cold afternoon, a nutritious lunch, a moreish afternoon cake or an evening treat ( Burger night being...

Before we were locked down AGAIN we’d made a habit if using The Roost for Saturday breakfast. The food is great and the service is top notch. Looking around (the menu & counter) this place is more than your run-of-the-mill cafe. There all sorts of...

Great takeaway Burgers on Thursday and Saturday evenings. Great value and taste. Nicly grilled and not deep fried!

Lovely Sunday brunch, good welcome and excellent coffee. We had the speciality sausage rolls and quiche, which were all tasty! Very covid secure upstairs too.

Lovely little cafe. The we've been twice now for brunch. Friendly, happy staff. Absolutely would recommend for a cheap and cheerful breakfast or lunch 😊

Tideswel villagel is well worth a visit as is its church which unusually due to the pandemic was open to visitors. After a stroll a coffee is what we wanted but everywhere apart from The Roost seemed to be closed or offering takeaway only -...

Popped in for something to eat after a Sunday morning walk. Four large tables upstairs and 4 smaller ones downstairs with counter doubling as a deli with local produce. We all had light homemade snacks which were very good and I bought some local chutney...
