This café has been around a long time and its old-style look and feel may mean it gets overlooked amongst all the established chains and trendy up-and-coming food and drink places in Chesterfield. However, despite its appearance, a visit here is a treat – especially for someone like me who requires a gluten free diet. Having “gluten free breakfast” on the menu is such a lovely thing to see, alongside options for other GF meals. Breakfast is made up of bacon, sausage, beans, tomatoes, hash brown, egg and two slices of toast with two foil-wrapped butter packs. I like to have something sweet afterwards, so I sometimes ask for a pot of marmalade to spread on one of the slices. The good quality food is always served fresh with enough on the plate and, with a squint of the eye, looks not too different to a gluten containing breakfast! The service is friendly, welcoming and the place is deserving of further visits whenever I’m in town. If you are coeliac or need to avoid gluten, it’s good to know that Woodhead’s make the effort to provide gluten free dishes whilst running a full “standard” menu. Their ability to produce meals in their relatively small kitchen whilst observing allergens in their ingredients demonstrates knowledgeable staff, giving me confidence to call in at any time (did I mention their breakfasts are served all day?! ☺)
A great traditional British restaurant.
A lovely meal today.
My sister and I enjoyed a bacon cob and a latte each. It was very nice. We'll definitely be coming back again.
