The best restaurants in Belper Central Amber Valley East Midlands

After being let down last minute for a birthday we called them to ask if it was possible to come and grab quite a few brownies from them, Dean went above and beyond to make some just for us, the brownies were better than we’ve ever tasted before, a variety of chocolate with different toppings that went down a treat. Would highly recommend and we will definitely be using regularly.

I visited the cafe today and was thoroughly impressed. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. There’s a really relaxed atmosphere and a strong community feel, with many of the patrons seeming to know the staff well. It is also dog friendly which is a bonus. I opted for The Mega “Patten Platter” Breakfast, which is excellent value for money, offering generous portions, a hot drink, and free refills - a rare find these days. Overall, a great experience, and I would highly recommend stopping by if you’re in the area. I’ll definitely be back!

The Farmhouse Kitchen is not the sort of place that will attract much casual passing trade; it is beautifully situated in a remote spot, a few miles west of Middleton in Teesdale, on a dead end road so, other than a few walkers looking for refreshments, the only clientele will be people who know it is there, and who are prepared to travel to it. Don’t let any of this put you off though, the meals are excellent and the portions generous. Sunday Lunch is strictly pre booking only, and choice limited to roast of the day, plus a vegetarian option. All food is home cooked, freshly prepared and absolutely delicious. Our roast beef came with Yorkshire pudding, roast potatoes, boiled potatoes, carrots, cabbage and swede, followed by home made apple crumble and filter coffee or tea. For those who have not booked, or who do not want a traditional roast dinner, there is the choice of All Day Breakfast, or various options of pies, chips, gammon, sausages, chips and sandwiches, cakes etc. The service is friendly and efficient, and the location, in a converted farm building, is very comfortable and welcoming, situated in a very pretty valley with open views of fields and hills all around. We will be back soon! 2 things to bear in mind though: the opening times are limited to Saturday and Sunday only, Easter to October, and they do not accept card payment, which could be a problem when the nearest cash machine is 1/2 an hours drive away!

The glorious smells from this cafe promised a treat after a tour of the shops in the mill. We were not disappointed. The owner is lovely and makes her own soups, savouries, mains and cakes. Hearty portions of excellent food and lots of tea! I'm looking forward to making a booking for the monthly Sunday lunch.

The food was delicious, we will be back for more.

I visited here to do a craft class which they hold on a Wednesday and Friday, they also a Grief and Dementure class. I didnt eat but they serve a good cafe. They have a garden at the back of the place and a small area inside for children.

Great food, excellent vibe and the team were so welcoming. Small place so its busy so reserve space if you want food. My friend had the Japanese bowl which I tried and it was amazing. Thanks for a wonderful evening

Without question utterly excellent. Great range of beers and a lovely atmosphere. On a day trip from Gloucestershire to also visit other places but this is the highlight!

Well at the grapes today got to sample a cheese board selection that Mark the landlord is sampling. Absolutely amazing selection of cheese & crackers. Definitely would like to see this on the menu. Cheese lovers would love this and pâté for the others would go down well. Thank you so much. The staff are lovely and the pub is dog friendly.

It's a lovely place to go and eat. The food is amazing, I've never had a bad meal here.

Cracking micro with a good selection of cask ales

A very enjoyable evening...lovely food

Didn't find . Different name !?

Great Indian food and good service

After having several ‘tasting menu’ experiences at various local restaurants this was by far the worst! Bright lights, no atmosphere, filthy carpet, no table linen, paper napkins, chipped crockery, dirty glasses, bland food, no-one bothered to explain courses or ask if they were enjoyed, limited wine choice and, to top it all, we were charged for something we didn’t have! Would not recommend at all, try The lighthouse at Boylestone for a proper tasting menu experience!
