Popped in during a very busy Christmas market, lots of people in but didn't feel crowded. The menu has a good selection of items, not the usual predictable coffee shop items which was good to see. We went for the quiche which was amazing. Served warm it's obviously been sourced from a local bakery as in not mass produced. Served with fresh salad and homemade coleslaw. Definitely pop in again
Such a lovely cafe. We wanted somewhere to try Bakewell tart when in Bakewell and were delighted to find this place. It shares premises with Thorntons chocolates so this was a bonus for our little girl - alongside our coffee and cake there came a little ramekin with chocolate buttons! Such a nice touch. Staff are very friendly. Highly recommend.
Friendly staff excellent coffee and toasted teacake
Lovely, relaxed atmosphere and friendly staff. Good choice of food plus hot and cold drinks. Will be happy to return if we're in the area.
Nice place to have a coffee and pastry in Bakewell. It’s in a retail chocolate / gift shop but the do a nice cappuccino- served with a biscuit and a chocolate. Nice staff. Order at the counter and they will bring to your table. Not a ton of atmosphere but great for a break.
Asked about gluten free options very knowledgeable and undstood about coeliac. Had a brie bacon and carmolised onion. If near again definitely call in thanks
Lovely cafe and gift shop. We were a group of 6 and had already been turned away from another cafe (no room). Thankfully we were signposted to this little gem by a local! The few that had coffee said it was amazing. The tea was good. Really nice food. The owner was really friendly. Had us all laughing. Would visit again if back in the area.
My partner and I absolutely love this place, it’s a must visit every time we are in Bakewell. Out of all the cafes and restaurants, we feel at home here. Despite my partner being an introvert, this place is packed and yet he still feels catered and cared for. The staff are absolutely lovely, kind and compassionate. Whilst here, we ordered a Bakewell milkshake each and they are absolutely to die for. We will definitely be coming back to try them in the future/ even follow the inspiration and try them at home!
