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.

Our trip to the filling station was an action packed visit to say the least! Think Sarah got a little carried away when writing her review 🤣 but nonetheless the food was a solid 7! I had eggs royale which i would recommend, my colleague however started eating his breakfast outside and nearly ended up in the Methodist church across the road! All in all I will be recommending the Filling station to peers and friends a far for an enthralling visit and very lovely and accommodating staff! Kudos to the chef!

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!

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 food was delicious, we will be back for more.

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.

Thanks for fitting David and myself in when busy

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

This is our "local" and has been transformed under new management since our move to Belper 2 years ago. Now in 21stC taking card payments not just cash, very nice atmosphere, dog-friendly, welcoming staff. We had pizzas on a Tues night with special offer on cask beer and they were great! Feels like a real genuine local and they are also expanding the evening menu shortly. Also the advantage of a much shorter uphill walk home than going into town! Keep up the good work Mark and Viv.

Excellent restaurant menu choices brilliant .can get busy need to book

Excellent place, superb range of cask ales

This place is amazing. Brilliant Moroccan food, very good prices. Recently moved location, Just gets better and better.

Didn't find . Different name !?

The outside doesn't look inviting, with rotting window frames. Downstairs isn't that inviting either, but it's a waiting area fir take away collection. The restaurant is upstairs and is nicely decorated. The toilets are very clean and modern. The food was excellent. Reasonable prices. The service was very good and the staff friendly and helpful. Recommended.

Booked a table for 7 45. On arrival told it would be 45 mins to an hour before our food would be served. I'm afraid that is unacceptable,to make matters worse a table of 4 who ordered 30 mins after us was served before us. The staff were very apologetic but I wouldn't wait that long in a Michelin starred restaurant let alone a Belper pub! The food when it eventually arrived after 1 hour and 10 mins was delicious and they did knock off some of the drinks on the bill. I would much rather have paid for everything and had a good experience. We will not be going again and will make sure to tell all our friends not to go unless they are prepared to wait at least an hour for their food.
