The best restaurants serving British food in East Midlands

I visit this place regularly, the food is great, the staff are great! If you are local to Derby or Nottingham or are going to the airport, you have to swing by and grab a cake or a breakfast!

always an amazing experience. always a lovely welcome. food is fresh and perfect, and we love all the little touches. I would recommend booking as it gets busy and rightly so. The decor, food, atmosphere and service are fantastic. I challenge you to find it anything less than excellent

Sunny day outside seating. Latte and a very tasty sausage roll, nice location to enjoy a rest awhile. The filled rolls on offer looked superb.

best jacket potato I've ever had. fresh and lovely prawn filling. went down a treat quick friendly service

Excellent fish and chips. Best we've ever had and reasonable prices too.

I happened upon this wonderful coffee shop by chance, I was cycling in the area and needed calories, I am so glad I found it. The service was excellent the varied choices superb I went for the overnight oats which were delicious. I will always use local independent cafes whenever I am visiting anywhere, I am not a chain regular. The cakes all looked home made as did the all the fare on offer, I spoke to a lovely gentleman who served my food and told him I loved his place. I managed to complete my ride before they closed so popped in for some cake before returning home, suffice to say it was outstanding the carrot cake did not disappoint, it will be my go to now should I return to Ashbourne, I just wish I had it on my doorstep, it is that good. I loved the decor and the ambiance it is a place you feel at home in, which is a difficult quality to acquire in establishments nowadays. The staff and all concerned facilitate this, I so hope this is still here when I next visit.

What a brilliant place so nice to see queues out of the door every time we go back and restaurants at the back always full fantastic food and service can't fault the food staff and price

Perfect lunch and reasonable price. They sometime busy and full. Recommend to make a book and then enjoy the meals. They have various foods

Absolutamente horrible desayuno de calidad. La mayor parte estaba frío y el desayuno en sí era claramente los artículos más baratos disponibles para comprar. Gasta un par de libras adicionales y ve a algún lugar que ponga un poco de cuidado y atención en los artículos que te dan.

The food is nice, but these prices are akin to London or Oxford. Not a small cafe in the country. Pretty outrageous. Quiche, bit of spinach, blob of balsamic, bit of coleslaw. Over £15. Oh and some cheap crisps. Ridiculous pricing. Would have cost them under £3 to produce that. Greedy.

We’ve visited hundreds of coffee shops around the country over the years and tried numerous cakes and desserts. I can say without reservation that the Apple and almond cake and Bakewell tart were the two nicest we’ve ever tasted. What a little gem of a coffee shop. Cheerful and welcoming staff and to top it all they’re dog friendly.

We had our Wedding reception here Fantastic evening staff were lovely all the quest couldn't get over the lovely views from the balcony.

My now wife and I had our wedding reception at DRFC. From start to finish Chris and his team at DRFC made things easy and we had the most fantastic reception at the club. We can't thank them enough. We highly recommend going for a pint or planning an event there.

We had coffee and scones on vintage china, and the owner, a young lady, was most friendly and helpful. A hidden gem - may she prosper and succeed in her business.

The best bacon cob (bread roll) you have ever tasted (three rashers of crispy bacon) together with a lovely friendly atmosphere and value for money.
