The Best Cafes in Hartshorne, Derbyshire, United Kingdom (2025)

Fabulous breakfast this morning with a beautiful Italian coffee!! 😍 The lady who served us was lovely (not sure if she was the owner or not but she was great!) I would strongly recommend anyone to this warm and friendly place! Thank you, Nigel & Claire

Cozy and welcoming spot with great coffee and fresh food. The menu has good variety, and everything is well-prepared. Service is friendly, though it can get a bit busy. A nice place to relax or catch up with friends.

Absolutely couldn't fault this place, breakfast was perfect. That's rare coming out for a breakfast. As I chef I cook breakfast and mains for hundreds and I was impressed. Well done to all staff.super presentation and perfectly cooked poached eggs..bacon perfect..sausages perfect..thank you

We were staying in Edale and fancied somewhere nice that did pancakes for breakfast. Wow this place didn't disappoint a great find. 5 miles drive from Mam Tor. Perfectly cooked breakfast, eggs Benedict and cinnamon pancakes. Coffee and orange juice and even did milkshakes. Wish I'd have got a cake to takeaway now, they looked lush. Highly recommend a visit if in the area.

This is the most welcoming church I have ever been to. The people are kind and thoughtful. There is a lovely blend of styles of worship.

Absolutely lovely church with welcoming and friendly people. There is a Sunday school each week.. There's a wide age range of people attending and the church is keen to reach out to the local community. Come and visit us to see for yourself.

Everyone at St. Peter's Church is very warm and welcoming. The Sunday School is picking up slowly now the Covid restrictions are easing. The children love going and so do we.

St Peters Church Hartshorne! Is a beautiful village Church in the lovely village of Hartshorne! It has a varied and lively style of worship with a high-quality of musicians that lead the worship every Sunday morning! It’s definitely a church to go to if you are looking for something that is very family orientated because it’s a loving and very welcoming Church! The leadership of the church are very anointed members of the church and lead with passion and Grace, and truly care for all the flock of the church!!!

Visited on a Saturday morning (9.45ish) at the end of October. Was surprised to see quite a few people already there, as other places are usually a little quieter at this time! Having eaten, I can fully understand why it is popular - we have found our new favourite local place for a cooked breakfast! 2 of us dined, and we opted for the Scottish breakfast and the Irish breakfast, as we've never the chance to try these ever before. We cut bits up to share, so we both got to try the Scottish bits and the Irish bits, and my goodness they were good! The Lorne sausage (Scottish) was quite dense, like a really good quality burger, the Irish sausage were delicious, the white pudding (Scottish) was creamy and peppery, the black pudding (Irish) was divine - crumbly textured, and a great flavour (supermarket black pudding has been ruined forever now!), the tattie scone (Scottish) and homemade potato cake (Irish) were amazing (and whilst in theory the same thing, had different textures and a slight difference in taste) Everything else on the plate was also high quality - lovely eggs, the thickest bacon I have ever seen, great tomatoes and really nice baked beans. Beans and chopped tomatoes served in ramekins (perfect for those who don't like the juices touching). There were mushrooms on the Irish breakfast, but I would have liked more as I love mushrooms. No mushrooms on the Scottish breakfast, which were missed. The Scottish breakfast came with some thick sliced white toast, and the Irish breakfast came with thick sliced soda bread. While the soda bread had a really nice flavour, it was a little bit dense for my tastes (first time having it, so not used to it!) The meals were £13 each, which included a hot drink. We ordered a tea and a coffee. The coffee (americano) was served in a nice sized mug. The tea was served in a pot, which didn't dribble, and I had a cup and saucer to drink it from. Plenty of milk in the jug that accompanied the drinks. The menu explains that breakfasts are cooked to order, so to allow about 20 minutes between ordering and being served. This gave us enough time to drink our drinks, and people watch. Some orders that came out looked very impressive, including the doorstop breakfast sandwiches, which were enormous! While we there, a customer in a wheel chair arrived - there was a little issue in getting the wheelchair through, but another table tucked their chairs in and the customer was able to get through. Plenty of staff serving, taking orders and cleaning up. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would!!

"Perfect in every way" I collected an order placed at Toons furniture store this morning and decided to try out the cafe. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted and seated very politely. From the couple who I presume run the café to the waitress staff, everyone was exceptionally lovely. The breakfast was piping hot and Perfectly served to my table with accompanying hot Latte. The cafe is very clean with nice table decorations which make the experience even more enjoyable. I spoke with the lady afterwards and congratulated her for the way I had been looked after. I will definitely be returning and recommending this little gem of a place. Simply superb 5 stars from me. Best Wishes and congratulations to you all.

Took my dad in his wheelchair for something to eat. Plenty of space available to negotiate other tables and once moved a chair out of the way. I was able to push him right up to the table so this made things much easier for him. As the food is all cooked fresh there was an expected delay between ordering and eating, which was no longer than expected and it's well worth the wait. The food was lovely and very filling

Loved our visit to the Farm shop and Cafe. Really nice to see local produce on sale, and really yummy products too. We had an iced caramel coffee, iced chai latte and a sticky toffee fudge cake slice. All were delicious! The cake was so moist and fresh! The drinks were really refreshing too. The decor inside is really nice, looks like a converted farm/barn. Really cute cafe :))

Fabulous range fresh food, including gluten-free options. Breakfasts are enough to keep you going until the evening! Super friendly staff.

Best place in Hartington to get a quick drink, breakfast, lunch, sweet snack or do a little shopping. Previously only getting some products and gifts from farm shop, this time we stopped for breakfast (full English) and coffee. Mocha was really nice and served very quickly. We had t wait for breakfast but it wasn't more than 15 minutes. The breakfast was very tasty and the portion was definitely too big for me. The menu is decent, including the menu for kids, gluten free, vegetarian and vegan options. Great cake display on the counter and very good prices (next time I'll try some of the cake). The staff was friendly and helpful. The place is converted farm, with lots of space. The shop is situated in front, the cafe in the back with plenty of tables. Local artists pictures are on the walls (for sale) which gives more character, the place is clean. What's also worth mentioning is that the farm shop won some awards and they source ingredients from local farms.

Lovely little spot for lunch! Me and my partner went here before a hike up the peaks. We both had jacket potato with tuna which was just what we needed to fuel us for the day! Only thing was they had no chilli topping left which was disappointing but working in hospitality myself I know this cannot be helped at times, so this was not a problem! Lovely views out the window and has a lovely little gift shop! We also tried some freshly baked goods which were delicious so whoever is in charge of baking these you are incredible!😍 highly recommend x

I visited the first time during the storm named Bebet and the valley was flooded. Today I visited and it was quite busy. I would have given the cafe five stars if it hadn't have been difficult to park. Apparently the car park is shared by several businesses. I'm surprised to learn that this business was started in 2021 because it feels as though its been here much longer. The atmosphere is very cheerful and there is a variety of visiting birds just outside the window as they come to feed on the many bird feeders hanging close by. The staff are exceptional and the service is first class. I cannot find any fault with this cafe and its the sort of place that makes you want to linger.

arrived 12:15pm on wednesday, plenty of free tables available. the breakfast menu is finished 11:30am. the lunch menu is not comprehensive, the additional meals are on special menu broad. the beef lasagne was delicious. the cheese leek quiche is good but the whole dish was rather small. the bread and butter pudding was not baked in custard, it came with custard. if you want to watch birds, select table by window unfortunately, only few tables are located by the window.

I had an absolutely wonderful time at the bird cafe over the weekend. We were lucky enough to get a window seat and were able to watch the birds and squirrels feeding which was very entertaining! Delicious coffee and cookie and wonderful food. The new owners are very friendly and welcoming and I can’t wait to see what they do with the place. We will definitely be returning.

Super old pub with good food and a lovely atmosphere, plus the garden is great in good weather. Two real fires are lit in the winter months to give a very cosy touch. Dog friendly inside & out.

I really enjoyed an absolutely scrumptious, delicious Sunday roast lunch that consisted of superbly cooked and tender slices of Beef, Yorkshire Pudding, Roast Potatoes, Parsnip, with was accompanied with additional mashed potato, cauliflower cheese, broccoli, carrots and jugs of gravy to compliment everything 😋 The service from the young staff members was superb, professional, friendly, helpful, and courteous at all times, and a credit to the pub 👏 👍 A lovely pint of pedigree ale before the start of my meal was brought to the table, and a very enjoyable Pudding of Fruit Crumble with hot custard finished the whole meal off wonderfully. A lovely, busy atmosphere with nearly every table taken made the experience worth this 1st visit, and I will look forward to a return visit at some point in the near future. 5 Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Food was very very good. Service was really friendly. We would and will definitely return! Very dog friendly which is always a huge bonus.

We weren't too sure where to have a bite to eat, as it was the first time we'd visited Swadlincote. After looking around the shops, we happened to find Sweet Caroline's, as they had gluten free options available. It didn't take us long to be seated and the menu had quite a few options. The staff were very friendly and took out order swiftly. The wait wasn't too long and we were very impressed! I particularly enjoyed the panini and crisps I had, although I can't quite remember what it was (has brie in it!) Whatever it was, it was superb and hit the spot nicely! Was great alongside my ruby hot chocolate, which I'd never had until then but will definitely be having it again! Stop by this place, if ever you're feeling peckish in Swad!

Lovely as always, had the Ploughman‘s lunch platter for two today, more than enough for the two of us, and presented lovely on the wooden board. Thankyou

Hired as part of my friend’s 18th and the atmosphere was fab. Seems the perfect place for lunch, homemade cakes are lovely too, will be coming back soon!!

Been here twice now and it’s so lovely, a little gem. Gorgeous little set up, decor is rustic and tasteful, lots of quirky bits and bobs around. Food is absolutely delicious, the best sausage roll we’ve ever had, quality is superb. Cakes are moist and lovely range of teas and drinks. Relaxed atmosphere, friendly staff. Very busy when we went, service took longer than you’d expect normally but happy to sit and relax whilst we waited. Would recommend!

We booked for afternoon tea for four of us a while ago. We arrived today to be told that our booking hadn't been recorded (a deposit had been paid so it definitely was). The ladies handled the situation so well that we were not upset in the slightest. They were able to seat us and bring drinks whilst they prepared the food and we actually enjoyed the time to catch up and have a chat (a group of neighbours from Newbold until 3 of us left the village at a similar time a year ago). The food that arrived was so worth waiting for. I have had so many afternoon teas in the past that have been disappointing but this ticked every box. At such short notice, we had exquisite sandwiches, individual prawn cocktails, quiche, sausage rolls, delicious cheeses and beautiful home made cakes. As we were late starting to eat they never rushed us and let us stay long past closing time. We've agreed that this will be a quarterly get together for the four of us and I am already really looking forward to next time!

1st visit for our wedding Anniversary.Came here to celebrate.Was recommended by a friend.Lovely quirky place.Afternoon Tea was superb.Soup in little cup,Hot Sausage roll,lovely fresh sandwiches and cakes made onside. I purchased gift voucher for a gift for a friend.will be back for breakfast next. Highly recommend.

Stumbler across this gorgeous coffee shop after a visit to the aeropark. Staff were so kind and friendly. We had blueberry scones and hot drinks and the price was really good for the quality. Attached to the cafe there is a lovely gift shop too and the lady in there is so friendly - sourcing items from all over the world, well worth a visit.

1st visit today and was lovely. Walked from Kirk Hallam to Shipley park area . Saw cafe and was a great find. Lovely walks in area. Check opening hours before visiting as only open Fri/sat/ Sunday and BH . Gets busy but was lovely . Shame they use disposable cups in these days of being more eco conscious but maybe they can't wash pots in small space . Not the friendliest of staff but location made up for that on this occasion.

Lovely little cafe. I like that you have to wonder through the park to find this place. The cafe building itself is quite small but there is plenty of outdoor seating, most of which is undercover either under a gazebo or an umbrella. We only had coffee's and a scone but both were great and the service was fast. The staff are very welcoming and dogs are welcome too. A hidden gem.

Lovely coffee shop with lots of outdoor seating. Good service with a smile. Delicious roulade and coffee. It's a cafe really walkers and cyclists as you can't really drive to here.

What a gem of a coffee shop! This little family owned spot is an absolute delight. The coffee beans are top-notch, rich and full of flavor, and thier latte syrups add the perfect touch of sweetness without being overpowering. The panini was perfectly toasted and the cake OH MY SO DELICIOUS. The service was warm and friendly, making us feel right at home. The shop itself was spotless and had such a welcoming atmosphere. It's clear that a lot of love and care goes into every detail. If you're looking for a cozy place with amazing coffee and food, this is it! Highly recommend 🍰☕️🌟🌟

It's a very bright café. It has comfy sofas and pink everywhere . The staff are friendly and I just had the caramel latte for now. As you can see, I was on lucky table 13 . Clientele at the moment is mainly older people, and mainly women. Does that have to do with the pink? It is centrally located and very easy to get to.

Stopped for a quick bite, very impressed. Limited menu but good choice so something for everyone. Food came out quickly and was very tasty. Can't fault it. Thank you.

Beautiful afternoon tea with homemade cakes sandwiches and treats,served in a lovely cafe with great atmosphere,would definitely recommend. Also been in for Lunch with my teenage girls food again was lovely,with lots of choice, didn't have to wait long once we had ordered,will be returning.

First time visiting here, food was really nice I was surprised with how many options there were! The cakes looked gorgeous! We had a panini and toastie which were lovely. Staff were friendly. A great place for a catch-up! I have dropped a star as my cup was dirty and the highchair was also dirty and the table part of it was broken also the toilet absolutely stunk (not sure if it was drains or previous person - I know nothing can be done if it was a person) but would be good to get an automatic air Freshener in there. I am glad I went after eating and not before.
