The best restaurants in Amber Valley East Midlands

We called in during a walk. Sophie made us welcome & we were spoiled for food choice. Opted for the white Tuscan bean soup with a scone and a chicken focaccia sandwich, both delicious. Will try the scotch eggs next time. Such a pleasant place to visit on a walk. Highly recommend.

Wow, what a fabulous place this is. I visited on a Saturday lunchtime and the place was buzzing. They offer a large selection of breakfast, brunch, lunch dishes as well as afternoon tea, takeaway service and delicious looking cakes. The service was spot on, Ellie our server was so polite and helpful and the food was all so good. Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area, it’s close by to Denby Pottery too.

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.

Bubbling atmosphere and such a historic place! Almost looks untouched. Pizza was strangely good and building was so aesthetically pleasing

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

Brilliant place. The food is absolutely delicious. The owner is lovely and always has time for you. The atmosphere is really lovely. 💯 recommend Rokaa to anyone who wants to try Mediterranean food. You will not be disappointed.

This place is an absolute gem - delicious, eclectic menu, friendly team and relaxed atmosphere

The best Chinese food in Derbyshire.

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 night, great service, great food…… such a shame I waited 20 minutes for my change! Was more than happy to leave a tip … just disappointed you just kept my change! That’s why you get a 1* for service.

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

The food was beautiful, my only point to flag is, don't forget to take your own alcohol

What can I say, five star doesn't seem enough for the service and food we received today, my self and partner had the Sunday dinner which was absolutely delicious, the meat was so tender and roasted vegetables were amazing and tasted so good, the creamy mash and fluffy roast potatoes were just perfect, the creamy leeks were to die for , we also had cauliflower cheese and mangetout and green beans, they were so yummy, the Yorkshire Pudding was perfect and filled with beef and stuffing 😋 and to finish it all off with homemade gravy, our dinner was just perfect and we will be back and recommending to all of our family.
