The best restaurants in South Derbyshire East Midlands

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.

Called into banger bros in Burton Derby services and tried a ranch hot dog. Have to say it's the nicest hotdog I've had. Cooked fresh and very tasty. Staff very friendly and would defo reccomend

Been here before and popped in today whilst visiting the shops in Melbourne. I had the breakfast and my wife had the pancakes. First thing that I liked was that we weren’t brought our drinks 10 minutes before the food as I like them together. Food arrived and was excellent and good value. Friendly and attentive staff as well. Thank you.

Brought kids here as they love this nursery anyway, what a lovely addition, and the cake and coffee is delicious Well recommended

Great place to catch up with your mates,cheap beers with sky sports with friendly locals,will be back....

Great lunch at The Black Horse in Appleby Magna. The food was excellent as were the staff. Traditional home cooked lunch and it was delicious. Great portions & plenty of veg. Lovely desserts too. We will be returning.

Great food, great service. We had a gluten free fish and chips for my wife and a kebab for myself. Very friendly and very helpful. Well priced and will happily return regularly

Lovely staff, great service and yummy yummy food. Your menu is superb. Thanks for accommodating us without a booking, we can’t wait to come back soon, we found a gem.

From outside, you can see that Leddy's will provide an intimate dining experience. We both had the beef fillet with English squash, Hen of the woods (a mushroom), pulled cheek and Bordelaise sauce, with sides of harissa cabbage and Kombu fries. I was concerned about the harissa, but none of the flavours were overpowering, and the beef (both fillet and cheek) were superb. For dessert, I had the chocolate and banana torte, and my friend had the Pannacotta. She was delighted with this, and enjoyed the yuzu and lime flavours. The banana dessert was exceptional - I had expected it to be very sweet - both the torte and banana ice cream, but again the flavours were subtle. I would definitely recommend a visit.

Freshly cooked food, minimal waiting time

Thoroughly deserves 5* this place 👍

Just celebrated my 40th birthday with 20 friends, started on the terrace in the sunshine which was great for mingling and the team brought our bubbly out :) then super flexible as to when we started inside with the food, amazing choice of sandwhiches on the afternoon tea and catered for dietary requirements amazingly. Warm scones were delightful and the mini cakes meant we could all try them :) The best time ever, such good easy communication in terms of organisation, completely stress free party, also sent in a playlist which was no hassle.

Pros: Excellent products. Varied produce - from Sausage Rolls to Cookies. Supplies to excellent establishments. Reasonable prices. Great turnaround time. Cons: Majority is supply to business only.

I didn't eat this trip but as expected the beer is excellent
