The best restaurants serving Default food in Bakewell Derbyshire Dales East Midlands

Reserved a dog-friendly table for a family group... which was a three hour slot (4.45-7:45). Left my email & mobile number at time of booking and confirmed by text the day before... phoned around 5.30 to say we would arrive by 6pm only to be told the table had been given away because we hadn't arrived within 15 mins of start time as per their T&Cs... Very poor. They didn't bother to phone me before releasing the table. Their attitude was complacent, as if they were doing me a favour by reserving a table. The upshot is that we had a lovely meal at the Red Lion instead instead. I can't review their food, but my experience was zero, but 1 star is the minimum.

We pre-booked a table at The Lavender tea rooms for a traditional afternoon tea. The food was delicious and huge portions - we each had our own cake stand. We were unable to eat it all but we're provided with boxes to take the cakes home in. My daughter has a nut allergy and was catered for with a wonderful selection of different cakes. The tea room is in a courtyard with an outdoor seating area which would be wonderful in the warmer weather. The tea room was extremely popular while we were there with a steady stream of guests, they also sell cakes to take away. Thank you to Tony and his staff who were very attentive, we will definitely return.

Went in about 2pm on a Thursday so it was quiet. Only a small place but had a wonderful, welcoming staff, quick service and the pizza was served fast, got and was delicious.

Staff members very friendly and the food was absolutely delicious! We would definitely come again. Reasonable prices , you really need to try the Bakewell Latte

We stayed here for 2 nights, lovely quiet site, facilities absolutely spotless, we had the most amazing views from our pitch. We had a meal in the pub one evening and the food was lovely, all the staff super friendly and helpful!

Absolutely delicious breakfast. Cooked to perfection. Served quickly and presented well. Staff were friendly and the place itself very quaint. Seating area outside with chickens roaming freely.

Been coming here 20+ years with my dad and we have never had a bad meal yet. It's our favourite place to have a catch up. The owner John is lovely and always has time to chat, you can tell he puts his heart and soul into the business and he is a credit to the cafe. Fisherman/greek salads were fab as were the iconic Bakewell puddings with ice cream. Will always choose here over anywhere else in Bakewell.

went in and had a coffee a tea and bakewell tart.beautiful.staff so friendly and helpful.went back a few hours later and had a bacon roll,the best ive eaten for a long long time.id recommend this beauty to anyone.thank you.

Absolutely gutted . Been today from Sheffield and although it states on website open its actually shut and looks like its been renovated..please update the website so people know..had to go elsewhere which was nowhere near as good and cost more aswell ..Still ticked 5 as it always is so good..

Fish and chips were so delicious we had them twice in the week we were there. Very friendly staff too. Would definitely go back again. Cod was succulent and very generous portion of chips. Peas and curry sauce also recommended 😋

We visited The Rafters at Riverside while on holiday and the first face we saw was Sue! She is the most lovely, friendly, smiley and helpful person anyone could hope to meet when visiting somewhere new. Sue is a credit to this restaurant. The food...

2nd visit to Bakewell and 2nd visit to Catch32, absolutely delicious quality fish n chips. Nice guy who owns it and nice staff. Beats the chippy near the river hands down. Travel from Shaw/Oldham to Bakewell and this chippy is very much part of the trip.

Brilliant experience...strongly recommended...friendly staff, nothing too much trouble..prices reasonable

We had the brewery experience today with Liam who was brilliant with a wonderful enthusiasm. It’s not easy delivering a presentation and bringing your own personality and he did just that. The beer selection was fab, all of the staff were welcoming and the pizza was excellent. We are already planning another trip this week before we leave Bakewell. Thank you Thornbridge, hugely recommend!

I visited these tearooms with my daughters on Friday 24th May. I have been to other tea shops in Bakewell, but Toscas is by far the best. We had afternoon tea for three of us, we sat outside in the court yard. The afternoon tea arrived and there was lots of lovely cake and sandwiches, beautifully presented, and our host friendly and gave us a warm welcome. We really enjoyed our afternoon tea, very civilised, we will defiantly be visiting again. In fact we will have a day out to bakewell just to visit Toscas .
