Café Impromptu
14 Church St, Ashbourne DE6 1AE, UK
Phone: 01335 682262
“I’m an independent carer and care for a lady with dementia. On this day my lady wouldn’t come out of the car, I popped in and asked if they offered take away - without hesitation the lady was very accommodating and told me what she would be able to do for me. They were very quick! Very friendly! I’ll definitely be back here to try some warmer meals. Special menu had lots of offer and the food I was seeing be served looked delicious! I look forward to returning. Inside, the cafe had a very cosy feeling. What a lovely place to stumble across! They even gave us some wooden trays to take with us to eat on and offered to help me to the car! The baguettes and salad we had tasted so fresh and was very lovely! Thank you very much. I can’t recommend this place enough!”

Chloe’s Bakehouse & Coffee Shop
Field Head House, Main Rd, Brailsford, Ashbourne DE6 3AX, UK
Phone: 07738 766166
“Chloe’s Bakehouse is an absolute gem! The coffee is consistently excellent—rich, smooth, and perfectly brewed every time. The homemade cakes are a real highlight: fresh, delicious, and clearly made with care and love (the lemon drizzle and brownies are next-level!). What really makes this place special, though, is the staff. Friendly, welcoming, and always happy to chat or help you pick something tasty—it’s the kind of place where you instantly feel at home. Highly recommended whether you're popping in mid bike ride for a quick coffee and cake or settling in for a sweet treat and a catch-up with friends.”

The Little Shed coffee shop and cafe Ashbourne
1 King Edward St, Ashbourne DE6 1BW, UK
Phone: 01335 418010
“We booked an afternoon tea here and really enjoyed it. The staff were very attentive, thoughtful and friendly. We were asked about dietary requirements on booking in advance on the phone and the staff were already up to speed having read the booking notes on our arrival, immediately running though the menu highlighting what was suitable for a member of our party (ordering off the main menu) who had a nut allergy. Dog's are not allowed inside but are welcome outside. The afternoon tea was delicious with a good selection of sandwiches and cakes. We ended up taking a few of the cakes home!”

“we had a spontaneous trip to Ashbourne and this cafe caught our attention straight away. And so good we came there! I loved the decor, and menu offers so much more than a typical cafe. We had butternut squash on toast (looked and tasted great) , my partner had pancakes with bacon, breaded chicken with maple syrup.. sooo delicious! and coffee - that's another big STAR for amazing ones. I had a beetroot latte (rarely on the menu at most cafes) - it was perfect. We already planning to come back to Ashbourne in the summer”

The Cheddar Gorge
9 Dig St, Ashbourne DE6 1GF, UK
Phone: 01335 344528
“Went into Ashbourne to find somewhere for lunch. We walked past Cheddar Gorge and were instantly drawn in! Everything you could want in a deli! Huge selection of different cheeses, sauces, relish, homemade pastries and a plethora of cakes! My husband went for the New York Deli sandwich and was blown away. Pastrami, sauerkraut, gherkins, rocket and soft bread. Photo doesn’t do it justice as he wanted to delve in straight away. We will definitely return the next time we’re in Ashbourne!”

Courtney Gallery & Cafe
50 St John St, Market Place, Ashbourne DE6 1GH, UK
Phone: 01335 347425
“Visually striking place, full of art, light airy feel with great views. We approached the counter each time we needed something rather than staff coming to our table. Although a gentleman (owner?) Talked to us. Not busy on our visit. It's a nice atmosphere, staff seem happy and relaxed, however I felt a little like I was intruding into a family home! Staff personal effects on a table where customers have to pass is wide open to theft (A handbag and a laptop)! I had a lady stand next to me whilst I was eating, making me feel uncomfortable. (Staff family member) Our meal was really nice, bottomless tea is fabulous. Sadly, the cake was quite dry. On street parking for blue badge holders. Not sure if there is a lift for wheelchair users? Thank you.”
