The best restaurants in Derbyshire Dales East Midlands

Light and airey cafe which is a lovely place to enjoy a very good cup of coffee, or two, with excellent service from the friendly staff.

In a world full of Costa and Starbucks etc etc etc ..it was such a treat to find such a gem....the owner is doing her best and the scones cakes and coffee are so 'homemade" it's ALWAYS a treat to escape to here! I'll keep supporting independent traders, the soul of Wirksworth xx

Hot chocolate wasn't very hot and lacked flavour. The latte was ok but wasn't very warm. The only thing I'd say is the cakes/scones are delicious, the food looked well presented. It really was it's saving grace, but for the price I'd expect a little more.

Fantastic home made food. Great value and huge portion sizes. The service was fantastic, couldn’t do enough for you. Will definitely be going back again and recommending friends and family to visit.

Had a truly delicious afternoon tea here. Everything freshly prepared and delicious and there was lots of it. Staff looked after us exceedingly well. If you are in the area worth a visit.

We were delighted that the pub opened early enough for us to pop in before eating at the Italian next door. Lovely warm and traditional place. The Kimbereley bitter was excellent, the pinot grigot undrinkable and the three noisy young children unacceptable. Worth visiting but perhaps much later in the evening and only drinking the beer.

Lovely cute countryside pub. Very warm welcoming. Really nice vibe. Live singer in the evening, everyone was so warm and friendly when we arrived. Lunch was great too. Rick and Sophie owners have created an amazing friendly and inviting pub for 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

Really warm Yorkshire welcome here. Super strong tea ☕️ don’t have to ask for extra tea bags here. We were travelling through. Saw on tripadvisor. Proper English cafe experience….

Best place for a beer in Bakewell. No question and worth the short walk. Stylish and friendly, the Jaipur was a characterful beer and the pizza was very good too.

It has a very good atmosphere, but Yorkshire puddings were burnt.It was very tasty, and filling.The service was quite slow.

Perfect spot for party with friends! The cocktail making was brilliant and unique and the food was brilliant. We had plenty of space and time to enjoy ourselves and the venue is well decorated and inviting. The accommodation was really welcoming and the fun bunkbeds were brilliant! It was clean and had excellent extra touches and the showers were great. Thanks again Andy and Kirsty!

I was really hoping for the wholesome, home cooked food that the price tag promised. The bean casserole tasted like a tin of baked beans with a whole load of dried sage stirred in. The salad could have been bought in a bag at Asda. I won't be going back.

This is a small quaunt cafe in Tideswell close to the village centre. Friendly staff and the food was very well priced, especially compared with similar places in the area.

Lovely little country pub serving a wonderful Sunday Lunch. Thank you to Janice for such a warm welcome. An absolute delight of a place and will definitely be returning. Great value and the lamb was wonderfully tender. Thank you.
