Upstairs Cafe in Derbyshire Dales

The cafe was almost empty when we visited with only one other table occupied but in fairness it was late-ish on in the day. We were warmly welcomed by the proprietor and were served promptly and efficiently by friendly staff. I was only in the mood for a coffee but the soup (tomato and red pepper) and a scone were also ordered. The soup in particular was delicious by all accounts! A very comprehensive menu to choose from and perhaps somewhere to return to a bit earlier in the day to try some of the lunchtime offerings. The owner was extremely pleasant and enthusiastic and full of chat and banter which added to the experience. Reasonable value for money too. Overall a good choice for a light lunch / coffee in Bakewell.

Visited Bakewell on a rather wet Wednesday morning. Having had a wonder round the town found some cafes closed but came across the Upstairs Cafe, what a find. It was lovely, quiet, cosy and comfortable with wonderful friendly staff. I had a latte and hubby had one of their real chocolate hot chocolates and we shared a large slice of millionaires shortbread. My husband could not stop raving about his dark hot chocolate, coffee and cake were also delicious. It is obviously popular, it was getting very busy just before we left. Very good value for money.

Visited Bakewell, Derbyshire for the day and found this lovely place for lunch. The steak pie and the chicken pie were filled with meat and accompanied by vegetables that were cooked with perfection. The big bonus was it’s dog friendly. Would highly recommend

The atmosphere here is super cosy. The staff are all lovely and attentive. They were so friendly, it was easy to relax and enjoy a nice breakfast. I ordered the full english, which was generous and delicious.

A meat pie to die for. Superb pastry & a filling that just melted in the mouth. I cannot remember eating a pie that tasted as good as this. Worth a visit to Bakewell for this pie alone.

After a stroll around Bakewell we decided to pop in to this cafe just for a coffee with friends. Such a lovely atmosphere and lovely staff. Food looked great too but we had already had a larger meal somewhere else, so just opted for a desert (Bakewell pudding with custard!) and it was great. Would definitely go back.

Hello, while on Hoilday in a nearby village, we went into Bakewell for shopping and looked for a Cafe. And we found upstairs Cafe. And had a lovely Latte Coffee on both occasions. What a friendly Cafe and good atmosphere. And just off the beaten track is an advantage.

Cold and wet, most cafes only had outdoor seating for dog owners. This cafe was warm and welcoming. The staff were all very pleasant. I enjoyed a delicious Bakewell pudding and my partner had the equally delicious carrot and coriander soup. Very extensive menu

Visited here based on the hot chocolate recommendation and it did not disappoint! Really nice hot chocolate, choice of different flavours. Food was good too. Best part though, the owner! He was absolutely lovely, very efficient and made you feel very welcome.

Simply the best cafe in Bakewell, we visit regularly and are always greeted by very friendly staff. There is a choice of seating, always very comfortable.

Discovered this little gem earlier this year and have now visited quite a few times - it's my regular stop after a Peak District walk. Plenty of choice on the menu (from snacks to full meals), the food is always fresh and tasty and the ginger sponge is beyond delicious (even if the portion size is sometimes TOO generous!) Lovely staff too who always make us feel welcome. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a stop in Bakewell. It's not that easy to spot from the street but is very central and well worth seeking out.

What a find. Visited today on beautiful but freezing day. Saw the menu board outside and spotted the penchant to hot chocolate. How could I resist the temptation sit indoors warm with a nice hot chocolate. What a wonderful surprise we had. The cafe has a quite lovely welcoming and calm atmosphere. It was one of those places where a photo doesn’t quite give the “feel”. The staff were lovely too. I Had cream tea with the hot chocolate. Oh my. How wonderful. It was such a great change from the cheap powdered hot chocolate most places serve. It might be a 40 minute drive from home for me but worth the trip. It’s also a independent establishment too. I worry about the hospitality sector especially the independent establishments so would definitely recommend visiting the upstairs cafe. You won’t be disappointed.

Grate food very clean lovely people just the one problem fare to meney dogs in the restaurant it was like a very busy dog show such a shame.

We found this on a day trip to Bakewell. Great find, I would call it a restaurant such was the quality of the food. Lovely clean dining area. Nice choice on the menu and good service. I had the steak pie with vegetables, it was really tasty and good value. We also had a pot of tea for 2. This was a proper pot dispensing several cups.

Clean, friendly and tasty food. We just popped in for a coffee and cake but was impressed. The Rocky Road cake was a mountain! Well worth a visit.

Yet again a fantastic meal, I come here with my dad from Sheffield to catch up with him, and the food / service is always fantastic. I had an iced coffee which honestly tasted better than one from a leading chain coffee shop, food is excellent quality, I had the brie bacon & cranberry melt (pictured) and my dad had the greek salad which both came with warm ciabatta and butter. Finished off with a caramel shortbread and the chocolate orange cake, both delicious.Thanks again John, will be back again!

1st time for over a year we both had pie +veg lamb +steak beautiful pastry meat devine service A1 ⭐⭐⭐

Simple cafe fare that is well done. Friendly staff, nice food that is served reasonably quickly and that is fair value. We've been here a couple of times and it always seems busy which we take as a good sign.

This is one of my daughter 's& my favourite places to eat.we usually go at weekends when we have the time.I had the jacket potato with mayo and salad and it doesn't disappoint.to follow I usually go for the ginger sponge and this time opted for the crumble but it was sold out so had the chocolate orange cake and it was very nice as everything always is here.one happy daughter and me.polite friendly service.i believe in patronising local independent business especially in Bakewell where the tax dodging yank chains are in the mix

I've been coming here with my dad since it opened 20 years ago, and the food is always consistently good. Friendly staff, great service and beautiful food. The coffee is also very nice 😂 the best cafe by a mile in bakewell

We visited here for lunch when on holiday in Derbyshire. We all had sandwiches which were good. My Mum and husband had some Bakewell Pudding which they enjoyed. It was convenient and had quick service.

Visited here for lunch recently and despite it being market day didn’t have to wait too long for a table for 4. The paninis were lovely. I had the curry which was really nice. Dog friendly too.

We arrived as a family of 8 and they managed to accommodate us over two tables, without much delay. On a busy day in Bakewell this was unexpected and greatly appreciated.We had a selection of toasties, giabattas and Sandwhiches and all of them were delicious. Not a single complaint which is unusual from our group.Couldn't fault the helpful and attentive staff.

When we arrived we were told that service may be a bit slower than usual as they were very busy. The staff were very welcoming and we found the service to actually be very fast. We had sandwiches and drinks and everything tasted fresh and delicous. A very relaxing place to stop for a snack or lunch. The chairs are also very comfortable which was great as we had just finished a very long walk and were feeling very tired. They also had a selection of cards and gifts that were really nice we will definately visit again next time we are in Bakewell.

Called in here for lunch one day - good selection of jacket potatoes and salads which my gluten-free husband could eat, and toasties, ciabattas and other sandwiches for me.Tables were a reasonable distance apart and we felt COVID safety had been taken into account.Speaking to the owner (?) when paying, it appears that they are unable to find sufficient staff and are seriously concerned about their ability to open fully in future, which is a pity. I hope they manage to find a solution, as we felt they offered good service.

After walking along the Monsal Trail from Hassop Station, we dropped into the Upstairs Cafe for a late breakfast/early lunch.The cafe was clean, the staff friendly, the service quick, the food tasty and the price reasonable.So, why only a 3 out of 5 rating and the title "Great Food - Some Issues However" ?The owner greeted us as we entered. Technically, he was wearing a mask, but it doesn't really do anything if it leaves your nose and mouth exposed and merely keeps your chin warm! Throughout the entire period we were in there, he continued to walk around the cafe, talking to customers and delivering food to tables but at no time did he wear his mask properly.The picture shows him chatting to some customers (they appeared to be regulars) and you can see that his mask is not on correctly.This was in stark contrast to all of the other staff we saw that were wearing their masks correctly the whole time.This, in the current Covid-19 era, is bad enough.What, in my opinion, is worse is what we observed the owner do at one point when delivering food to a table.As he was walking from the kitchen area to the customer's table, a paper napkin blew off and fell to the floor. He hesitated, looked at the napkin, picked it up and delivered the napkin, cutlery and food to the table.Really? Your profit margins are that slim that you couldn't bin that napkin and get another one??Granted that most of the time people use a napkin on their laps to catch wayward food. However, some people also wipe their mouths after the meal (or their children's faces / mouths) and some use the napkin as a disposable paper hankie.Would you use it to wipe your mouth or childrens' mouths after it had been picked up off the floor??Such a shame as the food was generous, well cooked and good value. The wait staff were very pleasant and speedy. Needless to say, given the above, we won't be going back!I'd love to see if the owner responds and how he explains himself for the above actions.

Spent 4 nights in Bakewell at half-term. What a lovely town. Read the review so came here on final morning. WYSISWYG. Plentiful honest food.The service was as good as the review say so we tipped, in cash. The owner, likeable, while forthright (much prefer that to ingratiating) remarked how few people do, in these Covid-times. Therefore (of TripAdvisor lets me say this), may I appeal to you to carry some cash o tip the youngsters who served you, if they did a good job. They are the ones who will suffer most from the economic impact of the virus.

Tucked away above the cheese shop is this lovely little eatery. Ran by a gent who treats each customer like they’re royalty, with passion and pizzazz. Their meal deal for breakfast is a real steal at £4.50 for a large coffee and a sausage roll (amongst other options). Or for those that way inclined, £4.95 for a bakewell pudding/tart and any hot drink. Good selection of 80s tunes in the background as you dine. To paraphrase Yazz - the only way is upstairs cafe!

Lovely food - huge portions and well presented. Staff were friendly and welcoming - even our two dogs were welcomed with a bowl of water each (and nobody minded when one got spilt). Thank you.

Beautiful food would come here again and again The staff very friendly and helpful very attentive all time

We visited the Upstairs Cafe last week during a stay in Bakewell. We had coffee and cake...cake being the local Bakewell Tart. It didn't disappoint, it was lovely and the portion was huge! Coffee was also good. In the current climate the cafe is doing very well at social distancing & cleanliness.

Me and my fiancé visited here today for a quick lunch. We expected just normal cafe food !! Boy we was wrong , amazing quality large portions and it was all so tasty !! 2 main meals .. one beef roast and a steak pie and 2 drinks £23.00 I wouldn’t believe it will 100% be returning on our next visit

My family and I visited the Upstairs Cafe today and had lunch. The food was absolutely fabulous and brilliant value for money. My mum said it was the best steak pie she’s had, my dad loved the curry, my toddler loved his pizza and my jacket potato was perfectly cooked. The Chef brought our food tonight table very professionally, politely and was very friendly and we couldn’t fault anything at all. A fantastic place to visit and we can’t wait to return.

Excellent food, really delicious and I’m fussy 😂 great service & tables well cleaned in between use would highly recommend.

On a day out in Bskewell we discovered They Upstairs Cafe’ there were mats on each table to tell us if they had been sanitised between customers, so we felt very safe. The staff were very obliging and efficient. We had 2 excellent meals - very reasonably priced. We will certainly be using the cafe when we next go to Bakewell. We live in Doncaster and wish we could say the same about some establishments there. Mick & Gill, Doncaster

Found this place as every pub in bakewell told us there was no room, but very thankful to have found this cafe home made steak pie excellent service topped off with bakewell pudding and cream the food was fresh hot beautifully served a real find restored my faith in bakewell hospitality one of the best cafes we have been to

As we were strolling through Bakewell we stumbled on this venue, we were a little surprised that there was no queue at all especially as it was lunchtime. We were treated brilliantly and allthe staff were pleasant and very helpful. The food and drinks were very well priced and delicious. We would definitely recommend finding this hidden gem.

I don’t think this place likes having children visit unfortunately. Constantly being watched makes for an uncomfortable experience. Perhaps this is why they struggle for custom, as opposed to the member of staff who told the same story about not having outside seating being the issue.

We had a range of excellent food served by friendly and knowlegable staff for such good value. I would reccomend it and will certainly visit again. I can't wait.

It must have been a couple of years since my wife & I visited this cafe, but we're very glad we returned - we both had jacket potatoes, my wife's with cheese & mine with some delicious coronation chicken - all in a pleasant environment & served promptly, efficiently & in a friendly fashion - what's not to like?

We now regularly frequent this cafe when visiting Bakewell. All the food is freshly cooked to order, they are well organised and friendly.

We went to the Upstairs Cafe in Bakewell this lunchtime and had a ham and Brie toastie plus a Coronation Chicken sandwich. Both were excellent as was the coffee.The staff were very friendly, proficient and professional.Everything was faultlessly clean.We will certainly visit again next time we are in a Bakewell.

Came here for a lunch with the family. Would recommend. Come reguarly. Warm welcome every time. Lovely food. Good service. We came with children and they were equally welcomed. We had the soup as well as sandwiches. Each one of us thoroughly enjoy coming as we dine here every time we are in Bakewell.

I'm not sure what that silly person is talking about below me, but this place is pretty amazing.Really nice service and the guy really made us feel at home.I've eaten over 2000 sandwiches in my life and THIS ONE was the best ever.Roast beef and stilton, order it and thank me later.Have a great day Bakewell visitors If you give this place anything other than 5 stars then you're not from this planet.Bye everyone

we went there 2 sundays ago ...the worst meal and service we have ever had ...waited 1hr 20 mins for the food ...sunday roast we had 3 pieces of meat 3 roast potatoes and several peas floating in a bath of gravy ...if you think i am joking please give it a try ......H,Bramhall

Really made to feel unwelcome and one of the members of staff was particularly rude to my children. Bakewell tart was obviously brought in and not home made. Disappointing. Spent a lot of money to feel pretty bad about being there and an inconvenience.

Stopped by here for lunch. A lovely light airy cafe with a good vibe. Nothing fancy just wonderful good home cooked food. The hommity pie was delicious as was the bakewell pudding. The staff were good especially the manager who was so friendly and welcoming. A must visit.

Though this is not high dining we have never been disappointed here.Tasty menu, tasty food, well presented, spacious layout, and relaxed atmosphere.This is well worth a visit for morning coffee, lunchtime snacks and meals, and afternoon tea. Steep steps for access is only negative point for some.

We had toasted sandwiches, shakes and hot chocolate 3 times during our stay in Bakewell.We also visited in May several times and the quality of food and drinks have always been excellent,along with speedy and efficient service.We will be back in Bakewell in May and look forward to dining there again.

Out of the bustle of the town, and very near the river, this cafe is an oasis of calm! It has quite a wide range of cafe food, from low cost ‘bites’ to full meals, all freshly cooked. The baking is excellent and the staff friendly and welcoming.

Excellent service with good.menu and all dishes well presented and cooked. Good coffee and chocolate. Quick service and staff very attentive looking after all your needs. Colin EC.

Decent menu, sensible prices, good food and mostly good service too. Thought they might have realised that serving a 4 year old an ice cream in a sundae glass with a foot long knickerbocker glory spoon isn't a great idea. Had a bit of a wait to pay.

Absolutely recommended, we called here for lunch recently on a very hot day, it made a welcome respite from the heat.

Needed a quick bite before heading off on a caving trip so through we’d pop in.

First visited here a few years so knew we had to come back again. Great range of choices on the menu. Staff are always polite and helpful. First time I've had Bakewell pudding, and wasn't disappointed.

Visited today, a very busy lunch time, staff worked hard clearing tables quickly and getting people seated. Friendly staff. Tasty fresh food nicely served, arrived within 10 minutes of ordering. Second visit today. Would recommend.

Visited here for breakfast. The coffee wasn't too bad. The breakfast for the price was pretty disappointing. The menu states 3 pieces of bacon but we both only got 2 slices. The tinned tomatoes were luke warm as was the rest of the breakfast. Nice setting and nice staff but wouldn't go back for a breakfast.

Our holidays to Bakewell each year wouldn't be the same without a trip or two ! to the Upstairs Cafe , as always this year the standard of food & efficient staff didn't disappoint , my parents and I can't praise the management enough whom are always so friendly & welcoming and nothing is too much trouble , not only good quality tasty food but a lovely atmosphere in which to dine . Ps don't forget to browse the lovely selection of greeting cards both upstairs & down . This truly is a business the manger & his wife can be very proud of & Bakewell just wouldn't be the same without it .

Being upstairs, the Cafe is out of the bustle of the busy town. It is ideal for a quick bite, or a more leisurely meal, as there is a good range of freshly cooked food. Lovely staff too!

I had a Prawn mayonnaise jacket potato with salad and coleslaw, the portion was just right hot and tasty. My friend had a Homity pie with salad, she said it was the best pie she had ever tasted.

This is our favourite cafe in Bakewell been visiting for over 15 years. Food always good, great selection even catered for our fussy eaters. Lovely coffee. Staff have always been very nice. Cafe can get very busy but it’s worth waiting for a table. Good selection of trinkets and cards.

Well worth going upstairs for! We ordered what we thought would be a light lunch with drinks but it was an ample serving that kept us going well into the evening!

Despite being extremely busy (as it was Mother’s Day) the staff were phenomenal and our drinks, a black Americano and a salted caramel fudge latte, came out very quickly. As the service and vibe of the cafe was nice my girlfriend decided to grab a bite to eat as well, choosing from the ample menu (even for vegetarians) she settled on a child’s cheese and bean jacket potato. I’d hate to have come across the child that could finish the jacket potato on the playground as it was huge. She struggled to finish but as it was beautifully cooked she fought on and smashed it. Again it came out quickly and the bill at the end was surprisingly cheap. We were also incredibly shocked that it was dog friendly as normally places as nice as this don’t allow them, but she was even offered a drink and biscuits by the staff.

Popped in for a hot chocolate and mocha, staff very pleasant and service very quick considering how busy they were, would defiantly return again when in the area

We found this coffee shop when we were visiting the town. We like to support independent, local places so we gave it a try. The chocolate cake and the coffee were pretty much average quality. Their billing system is a bit outdated and confusing, a more straightforward one would be helpful. However, I loved the handmade charity cards that they sell. I bought a couple of them and I think this is the best kind of souvenir I will take from Bakewell. I would encourage the owners to amke a stand for these cards as they are a real gem.

Had a lovely walk round Bakewell on a very rainy last day of February. We called into this lovely cafe for lunch and was greeted by a very friendly face which is always a good start. We had light lunch which consisted of tuna sandwich on brown bread with salad and colslaw for me.........and my partner had chicken and bacon ciabatta with salad and colslaw........we had a pot of tea for two.......all of which was very fresh, delicious and presented beautifully..........very reasonably priced........and served by lovely, kind and polite staff. What a lovely clean and beautiful cafe it is too. Thank you to all.........we shall definitely return

Service very good, and staff attitude excellent.

I was slightly disappointed in my luncheon visit . The menu was limited and what I chose was probably why I was not very impressed as the food seemed tired on delivery . The surroundings of the eating area was pleasant and comfortable but I didn't have an excited feeling of the restruant really being the home of Bakewell pudding /tart

The Upstairs café is OK but when we visited for a coffee we were disappointed to find the coffee was tepid so it didn't "warm us" on a cold day

Living in Bakewell, my wife and I visit the Upstairs Café regularly for coffee but, last Friday morning, we had the full English breakfast, which was excellent. It was cooked very nicely, was well presented, looked appetising and was very tasty. The café itself is pleasant, comfortable and clean and the staff are helpful and friendly. This is our favourite café in Bakewell.

Had lunch here on Saturday I had broccoli bake which was piping hot and very cheesy. Also had homity pie which interestingly was not very cheesy. Nice homely feeling in this cafe.

This is our cafe of choice in Bakewell. Meals are reasonably priced, freshly prepared and arrive quickly. Very child friendly, too, and nice quirky bits to buy in the shop area.

We made a few visits this weekend, for breakfasts and tea. Consistently good. On one visit we had the full breakfast. There wasn't a spot of grease or oil on the plate, which is quite a feat for fried food. The cakes are good too - enormous. Recommended.

Having just arrived in Bakewell, we popped in for breakfast.

Popped in for lunch after being recommended. Had beef cheese/onion ciabatta. Very nice. Homemade coleslaw was excellent. I've worked locally for years and this was my first visit. It won't be my last. All the food looked great.

We were a family group of 4 plus a dog and were made to feel very welcome. Food was delicious, we didn’t wait long. All staff were cheerful and I would not hesitate to recommend others to visit.

We came here for lunch it was absolutely gorgeous.. the menu had that much choice I couldn’t make my mind up... the food was delicious, the staff were very helpful & friendly.. I would highly recommend and will return on my next visit to Bakewell.

Have excellent Tea and Cake from fixed menu for £4.50 each. Would recommend to friends. Good Service.

Popped in here just for a tea and latte and also had a tea cake,plenty of tables and staff very pleasant,price very reasonable and would defiantly return when next in the area.

Came in here as I found online it had vegan options. There is a option, it's beans on toast, otherwise nothing available at all. Disappointing.

Popped in for mid day meal ,just waited a short time for a table, we both had Steak pie, boiled potatoes, vegetables (beans, peas and broccoli) which was very hot. Also a coffee each .It`s surely great value for money. All staff are kind and cheery. Definitely call again

This was my second visit, and I’m delighted to say it was as good as my first. The food was fantastic, the value for money is excellent, and the staff (especially the owner) are extremely welcoming. Next time I’m in the area, a trip to upstairs is first on the list.

We popped into The Upstairs Cafe for the second time, this time just for a cuppa and a fruit scone. My wife, who is quite particular about her tea remarked that it was much to her liking and plentiful. And the scone was fresh and warm and quite large, with none of the soda taste often encountered elsewhere. We also noted that the portions of food served to other customers was very generous and piping hot where appropriate, which sums up the cafe in general. Service was brisk, attentive and friendly even though the cafe was almost full of customers (as usual). We can heartily recommend this cafe and is worth seeking out, the cafe is situated above a fruit and deli shop and adjacent to the Co-op on Market Street and not far from the river.

This little cafe has a small entrance in a row of shops with stairs up to it. It is extremely popular and you may have to wait to be seated, but it is worth it. The meal arrived incredibly fast and it was really hot. We had a steak pie and how they managed to get so many huge chunks of steak into it was a talking point and the crust was just amazing, our knives just went straight through it, definitely no hard crust and no soggy bottoms here either lol. The vegetables were fresh and plentiful. The whole meal was just delicious and the price was good also. The staff were so attentive and tables were cleared in minutes. This is a little gem of a place with a small gift shop attached.

This cafe is a little out of the mainstream having a small entrance on the ground floor next to a row of shops. We saw it featured on TA and thought we would give it a try. Right choice! The food was excellent, the service spot on and the value for money really good in a touristy area. They serve everything from sandwiches, jacket potatoes and so on to full meals so there should be something suitable whatever food you are seeking.

My wife and I had a very enjoyable lunch here, whilst visiting Bakewell as part of a coach trip. Very pleasant staff, and very tasty food, presented well......

Fabulous cafe / coffee shop in the wonderful town of Bakewell. Great service. Allow dogs. The Bakewell pudding was great.

A delightful spot for a morning treat with good value morning specials until11.45, we had coffee and bagel in pleasant and relaxed surroundings. They also offered main meals and sandwiches which looked good but we didn't try. Central location above some shops.

Friendly staff, good simple and tasty food with a good choice of dishes. Service pretty quick despite being very busy when we were there. Great for lunch before or after visiting Bakewell and surrounding area.

I have been coming to this cafe with friends for almost 15 years! We love the food, great service, good value for money.

Very nice service and nice atmosphere. Great hot chocolate. Will definitely come back when visiting Peak District.

I just had to share this - I am sometimes reluctant to share as I always fear that it will lead to my being without a table one day! However, I just made my 7th visit to this place and I need to blow their trumpet. The food is top quality especially the home made soups. But it's the fact that I now know that I will be served the same quality and portions every time that make it special. Consistency fosters trust, and I am hooked. Too, the staff are wonderfully friendly and efficient - this is not always a blending that works, but here it does. On my last visit it was very busy but my wait time was minimal thanks to watchful table service, and the little time I did wait was happily spent checking over the gift shop offerings, and picking through the various magazines and newspapers always available. This place has it all. Now, dear readers, do not block my table!

This was our second visit to The Upstairs Cafe and one again it didn't disappoint. We go for breakfast and the food is lovely but the real reason we go is becuase it passes my own high standards of cleanliness.

We enjoyed our visit here we ordered two ciabbata sandwiches both were tasty and good value for money . Nice table side service as well.

The place was well run and was a combined shop and cafe. Food was simple but good quality and value. All staff were helpful and interchanges tasks easily. Shop sold better quality tourist goods. Food customers included many who were local to Bakewell.

We popped in for lunch and greeted by a friendly person. Ordered a jacket potato and 'homity' pie. Food arrived within a few minutes and was delicious. Jacket potato was fluffy with nice topping along with lovely salad and coleslaw. Pie was very 'comfort' food and wholesome.

Visiting Bakewell in search of a decent Bakewell pudding, we turned to Trip Advisor for a breakfast recommendation. The service was crisp and snappy but warm and friendly. They were onto a winner when my pot of tea turned up with a jug of milk large enough to actually make all the cups of tea in the pot.

Go in here on a regular basis , my 2 children love the bacon sandwich and smaller breakfast the gentleman always offers.... we always make a mess...(sorry) but it’s never a problem, although we do tidy as we go along, our regular place for breakfast when kids off school... 100% recommend this little gem.... amazing food, amazing staff, very roomy and comfortable... oh and amazing coffee.... deffinatley the best in bakewell for us.

Just home from our annual visit to Bakewell , have visited many times over the years and you never fail to impress , the quality of food and your effecient staff are a credit to you , cannot recommend you highly enough .

We visited this busy little spot for a bite of breakfast on a sunny Sunday and were not disappointed.
