The best restaurants in West Hallam and Dale Abbey Erewash East Midlands

Lovely relaxed place to have lunch. Food and service was excellent with very friendly staff who are very accommodating.

Dropped in when visiting Ilkeston- had a lovely pork and stuffing cob- good value and filling. Friendly staff who were very patient and understanding with a vulnerable customer.

Excellent, friendly staff, good food

Lovely meal ,staff lovely,will be back

This is the second time in the last month we have been here and it doesn't disappoint. The cafe is large, with plenty of seating both inside and out (for dogs). Just each time we've been for lunch it is packed and due to the high ceiling it amplifies the sound so it can be quite noisy. The food selection is excellent, portions of a decent size, quality is on point. We had the soup and cheese toastie then first time followed by the soup and toastie combo again but my daughter had the chicken and chilli jam panini this time. The selection of cake, scones and tray bakes are the best in the area for us. A little on the pricey side but you get what you pay for a suppose. All round this is a lovely venue with stables to the back. The car park can be tricky due to the dubious parking of people in their Chelsea leaf Dodgers! Will we be back, most definitely, it's one of those places that you want to keep to yourself but know you have to sing their praises, staff are lovely.

It was a very good cup of latte coffee,and good food,in a good atmosphere and totally enjoyed the occasion with my family

Thought give it a go read some excellent reviews.How wrong was I placed order at 6-10 was told going to be an hour and 20 mins,waited no show even gave extra half an hour the phoned up to ask where it was and it hadn’t even been started so cancelled and went somewhere else

I voted for cod’s scallops to be best in Britain Jamie’s Chipy has come in my view a close second very good amounts of food for the money. If you have never been well worth the trip out.

Stayed over in the MoHome last weekend. Super friendly staff, lovely food - Felt really safe to stay. Thank you for your hospitality

Gets very crowded and service takes ages. However, if you have time to wait, the food is good

Fatty ribs- hardly any meat. Hardly any peanut flavour in the satay. All the other dishes ok. Avoid the ribs!! Oh and, duck cooked yes, but only just so very chewy fat. Not my thing, but maybe suits most ok. But urm, no, not the ribs!!!!

By far the best Indian around. Always outstanding.

The Bottlekiln is a rare find - homemade quality food, good staff, a nice environment and you can buy lovely things in the two shops there. I love the afternoon tea, I think it’s great value. The lemon meringue pie is really deep and lovely, a ‘must have’ there. We always have the quiche and salad and I must say this time there was no coleslaw with it which we were disappointed about.

Great Service, Meals served up piping hot, Sizzling Piri Piri Fajitas, 1 Chicken and 1 Vegetarian Halloumi no complaints, simple consistently good on all our visits, thank you.

Loved it tonight. Sat with a friend, amazing staff and amazing beer! Had a great night with no issues at all. Plenty more nights to come!
