Just been for a meal with the family. The food was excellent and the room has a wonderful view over Bakewell. I would definitely recommend visiting. Also very reasonably priced.

Popped in for Cappuccino with friend, decided to have a chicken wrap too which was delicious, lovely warm and friendly cafe

Lovely welcoming place . Lovely home cooked food cooked to your liking . Polite staff x no pressure to purchase . Great to meet friends in warm environment

I came here for lunch with my daughter one sunny Saturday in August. It was a lovely day so all the front was open with views of the river. A great menu of small open sandwiches and a few other options. We went for the open sandwiches and they were great. There was a good choice and the bread was soft and the toppings plentiful. Very nice laidback vibe. Service was good and efficient

Really good coffee and breakfast bagel at reasonable price with great service. A little gem tucked away on the way into the city.

I go here most months when I get the chance to! I used to work in the town centre so I’d go so much more. It’s the only thing I miss about not working in the town centre anymore. Great coffee, food is delicious!! I recommend to everyone I can, I take my nan here a lot, she loves it. More family members I go there with. Such lovely people and great service. Couldn’t recommend enough.

I love these places when you find them. This is a very basic good old Cob Shop that does some hot food. Very nice bread. I was so impressed when my daughter asked to delete item from here breakfast wrap and they offered an extra instead. I had the classic Red Leicester, with onion in a crusty Cob and one with cheese and tomato. Very pleasant experience. Delighted. Great food, good price and very nice service from the staff big thumbs up
