The best restaurants in Ashbourne South Derbyshire Dales East Midlands

I used to like this place and used over other local establishments in the area. I ordered a bacon baguette on this occasion to drive home 8 miles and eat my sandwich to find half way through eating there was chicken inside it... bonus if you like chicken... but myself can’t stand it and makes me ill eating it. So we rang up stating of what happened and no real offer for money back or anything. So for people who have allergies with white meat... beware as the woman stated “we cook all meat in one pan” won’t be back again... shocking.

I found the whole experience at this cafe very disappointing...very bad and rude service. It took almost an hour to get our mushrooms on toast! The place was not over busy either. We had to wait to be seated and then not even informed that we had to go up and order our own food...to then be told rudely that we were told to go up ourselves. We were told that full English breakfast was over at 11.30 but then another customer came in later than us and was served a full English! I asked them why this was and I was told it was one of the staff members husband...outrageous!

Popped in for a quick coffee with our dog we ended up with a baked potato and tuna and a panini and the whole experience was a good one clean tidy friendly, thank you everyone.

Perfect place for families. Staff very friendly. My kids really enjoyed painting their creations. It was good value too and kept my children busy on a rainy day. Would definitely recommend. The gift shop is beautiful too. 5 stars

Never had a bad takeaway, always a warm welcome from Benny's.

Very nice food. Tasty, well cooked and presented. Good service. Well priced. We'd go back if we found ourselves in Ashbourne again. Only negative was that we found the piped music a little loud.

Waited 2hours for our food. When it came it was cold and delivery driver handed it too me and ran off. Rang multiple times and the dont answer phone

No one answers the phone, they don't send the delivery orders and if you do go in they're rude. Reading replies from subway on other reviews they always ask for you to call the store, no one picks up

The cakes looked so good from the window. Went in and asked for cornflake slice and a frangipani. The young man didn’t listen to me because when I got home there was no cornflakes slice. So disappointed.

We called for coffee and scones. A group of 4 ladies. The coffee was great but the demeanour and attitude of one of the ladies was dreadful. I don’t understand why folk who really don’t like people would choose to work in hospitality.

Decent fish and chips. Popped in last night on my way past and had mini fish and chips £7.50. Nice and hot and quick service too.

Typical english breakfast, decent quality and reasonably priced- clean cafe but busy at the time We went so speed of service was not the fastest

We usually get the chicken tikka masala and pilau rice which is usually great but there’s been a few times the chicken tikka has came and tasted very off. Enough to put you of eating it.

Gorgeous food and a great choice on the kids' menu! Everything tasted really fresh and great quality ingredients. The staff were really friendly and very helpful. We even left my sons water bottle behind, and they are keeping it to one side for when we return! 😆🙈
