I was looking for somewhere different to take my hubby for breakfast and stumbled across the canal boat cafe. It was easy to book a table online. We went for a nice walk along the canal and built up an appetite first. The boat itself was quite chilly and you could see your breath in the air. We were wrapped up from our walk anyway, so this was not an issue. The interior is clean and comfortable and I liked the little touch of Rosie and Jim sat at the back. They have a large breakfast menu, including veggie and vegan options. We ordered 2 regular breakfasts at £10.95 each. They also do mini breakfasts and jumbo breakfasts. The food came in good time and there was plenty of it. My hubby enjoyed his, with his only gripe being he would've preferred his toast slightly more toasted rather than just "warm bread". Personally I thought 2 slices of toast was the standard for this sized breakfast, but we only got one, which I would normally say would be fair with a small breakfast. The most disappointing thing, though, was the hair I found in my breakfast, This didn't put me off finishing the breakfast, which was a nice breakfast, but my hubby did point this out to a member of staff, who to be fair, was very apologetic and offered us a free breakfast, which we didn't want. We just wanted them to be aware. This wouldn't put us off returning in the future, but I know it would be a major no-no for others. They also do a lunch menu and the prices here are very reasonable. They are dog-friendly too and there is plenty of outdoor seating, so I can imagine this gets busy very quickly in the summer. Boat trips are also offered and, again, at very reasonable prices. Overall it was a nice way to spend a morning out together.

Great little cafe style restaurant with all your usual Chinese meals but in simple bowls enough for a lunchtime meal. Sat inside which was comfortable and not your normal setting for a Chinese. Liked the chilled out comfy settee areas which made it more relaxed and informal. Wish there was something like this near us. Not expensive either £6.50 for a decent bowl of food with either rice or noodles or chips. Food was tasty and made to order had a decent cup of tea with the meal in a large cup. Would highly recommend and would go again. Note. It’s cash only or bank transfer.

Have been going to Kathy's for afair number of years now. Originally the Tearooms at Brook Farm, Repton. Now situated at Betty's Farm, Willington, and everything is as was. Food is still the best in the area. My wife and I go at least twice each week and every time we come out 'full to pussy's bow', and very satisfied. Food is good, well cooked and neatly served. Kathy, being a vegetarian, is also noted for her vegetable sides. We had 1 different veg. one Sunday lunch time, inc. Roast and Mashes potatoes. The only downside is that she is closed Monday and Tuesday. Can be very busy on a Sunday, so definitely book ahead if you are going. If you want a Breakfast, normally served to 1130, and you arrive a bit late, if she isn't too busy she will still cook you a breakfast. If you want Black Pudding as an extra, it will be fetched fresh from Betty's Farmshop, the other side of the forecourt.

An unexpected discovery whilst we were walking in the area. A truly quaint little place with a lovely atmosphere and the best toilet / baby changing that I've ever seen in a cafe! There are so many nice touches and some humourous signage. It's just a shame that we live in East Devon, otherwise we'd be visiting you regularly. Well done, a credit to the area.

Great location and ambiance. Service was ok, but had to ask few times for water to be replenished. Lamb beliram was excellent, sweet chilli chicken too sweet, cauliflower ie Gobi Machurian was excellent. Naans not as fluffy as expected. Bhindi and Chole were mediocre. Will have to try again next time i come to Derby

This is really now called Bumblebees! I brought a couple of friends here for coffee this morning and had a wonderful time. We were struck by the warm and friendly welcome and the freshly decorated surroundings. Nice menu, everything freshly prepared and reasonably priced. My pumpkin spiced latte was delicious. We will be back for more!

This used to be the place to go to, I've been going here for many years but it's slowly on the decline. The ribs have been poor for some time and the chips taste like prawn. I now go to The Greenhouse (opposite Cherry Tree, behind the shell garage) also in Willington. Find the food there to be a much higher standard.
