4 popped in for pizza and pastaWith a garlic bread be warned very strong garlic if you donât like it to strongPizzas were tasty and a big portion on pasta carbonaraWonât beat a proper Italians but good enough Be warned cash only salesSorry if the garlic bread was too strong for you, but we've used the same recipe for 15 years, and 99% of customers love it, using words in their reviews like; 'best ever' 'awesome' etc.We had a giggle at 'proper Italian', as this cafe was all based on original Italian recipes , which we purchased from the previous owners and adhered to when we bought it over 12 years ago.No, we don't take cards (yet), but are in the complicated process of getting the right deal, but meanwhile you neglected to include the fact that there are FOUR cash machines within a few minutes walk, two are less than twenty seconds away.

Relax and enjoy morning coffee with a slice of homemade cake, a freshly prepared lunch or an afternoon tea in the tranquil ambiance of Gallery Café, located inside the wonderful Rutland Arms Antiques Centre. We use the finest ingredients in all of our pro

The small and cozy 'Gallery Cafe' is tucked away in a corner of the Rutland Antiques Centre. In the cafe you will find a selection of sandwiches, toasted hot and cold, coffee and cakes. The walls have paintings on display (hence 'Gallery' Cafe) and comfortable seats and tasteful decor. Prices in my opinion are a little bit high, we paid £17.50 for two toasted sandwiches and one regular coffee, but the presentation and quality was very good.

Part of a series of reviews for a weekend in Matlock. Opening morning we stopped in here for breakfast. I do like a good full english when away. My wife is a little more refined in tastes but was happy to acquiesce! There is nothing wrong with this place. Its not a greasy sppon, but its not a coffee shop. It is a cafe.Food was alright. portions were good, speed of service fine and friendly. Alternative options available. Price in the region you'd expect. I feel a bit bad giving only 3 circles. This was above average, but not very good. It was perfectly functional and I would return. But if I was local I'd not be nailed on to be a regular.

I suppose this is a review of the cafe as you could wander around the mill but only downstairs was open and we found it difficult to see what was going on and how it would have all worked as a mill. There is plenty of parking. It's a lovely setting and there is a shop selling flour, a gift shop and a couple of craft workers on site. We enjoyed watching the blacksmith making lantern holders. The cafe was incredibly busy and the queue was long. We ate at 11.45 am on a Saturday morning so we only had a short queue. The food is excellent but you do have quite a long wait for it. Staff manage to be pleasant even when very busy.

Stayed here for one night during a long-distance cycle ride in early June 2019 and couldn't be happier: the twin room was clean, welcoming and perfectly equipped with a bath and a shower. Had to check in later than expected and owner Anne couldn't have been more helpful. Full English breakfast next day was one of the best I've ever had. If you're staying in Bonsall, be mindful that dining options on an evening are very limited: the King's Head wasn't open on Saturday night (looks like it's closed down?) and the Barley Mow stops serving food at 7.50... they did take pity on us after 90 wet miles on the bike with a couple of simple sandwiches. Can't praise The Fountain more highly.

Booked a table due to size of the party.Owner and staff are always friendly and attentive with the customers. Food is always excellent, only downside is if you drop in to purchase a sandwich be prepared to wait as they can and do get busy.Thanks for reviewing us. It was a pleasure to serve you and we're pleased that you had a great time enjoying your experience with us, which you mentioned during your visit, thank you.Yes, the takeaway side of the business has always been challenging to fit in with a sit in business, which is why we encourage our regular take away customers (and new) to phone ahead, even if it's just five minutes, then we can manage their expectations.Thanks again and see you soon.

Called in to this lovely cafe on a wet miserable Monday lunch. The friendly owner greeted and and we made our selection from the specials board, there is also a menu with something for everyone.The food arrived shortly afterwards and using good quality fresh produce, oh and the rye bread used with the Welsh rarebit was so delicious......!There were a selection of home made cakes on display which looked delicious. We will certainly be returning to sample more dishes and thoroughly recommend.
