A real gem of a find. Next to the Tissington Trail it is easily accessed on foot, by car or on bicycle and the carpark is large. There are tables and chairs outside and also some picnic benches a little way further along the trail where you can sit and enjoy your refreshments. The choice of drinks and snacks/light meals is good and reasonably priced.
We had sandwiches and coffees - tasty, fresh bread with plenty of filling the sandwiches were great and the coffees (espresso, long black and lattes) were also good. If you fancy something sweet, there is a choice of baked tarts and cakes and also ice creams, dog ice-cream too!
The kiosk building is also home to public toilets which are well-used, but super clean and in good working order with plenty of toilet paper (in the ladies.)
The business owner was friendly and chatted as he prepared our sandwiches. He obviously cares about his business and customers.
Just a really nice place to stop on our return cycle ride from Ashbourne. Would recommend it to anyone looking for a drink and a sit-down when in the area. Fabulous!
Only bought 2 coffees but what a genuinely nice gent who served us. Pleasantly engaging, took time to converse and with a nice dry sense of humour.
I agree with others, the plum tart with ice cream was special. Add to this the apple and rhubarb tart. We also got helpful route guidance which saved a few miles on the A52.
