Denby Dale Tea Rooms

Came in the tea rooms for lunch and ordered food for our small group. The offer was mostly sandwiches, paninis and the like, and a soup of the day. Everything was minimal in size, with pretty much a large teacup of not especially appetising soup....Most striking was the sandwiches. These were really literally supermarket sliced bread sandwiches, and not good sliced bread at that. Cheese was cheap mild cheddar, the Yorkshire ham didn't stand out as anything that you wouldn't find in Sainsburys. Salads were a few mouthfuls and the side of crisps with one order was, I would say, about half a small packet of OK crinkle-cut crisps. The prices were mid-range for a cafe, and in that context really, really not good value. The tea room itself is pleasant and the staff friendly and attentive, and it looks a promising prospect, but not recommended if you want to eat and feel like you've got your money's worth. Genuinely, a meal deal from the nearby Co-op would have been better. For what it's worth, I'd encourage the owners to really rethink their food offer. Decent, chunky fresh bread, tasty cheeses and cooked meats, along with much heartier portion sizes would feel like a good offer and bring in diners they could even charge slightly more if the ingredients and portions were good enough. As it stands, the food felt cheap, but wasn't.

We made a happy return to this wonderful cafe and we weren't disappointed. We only stopped for a snack but were impressed by the quality of the food we received and of the service. We had bacon and egg sandwiches. The bacon was superb ..fine quality and good thick rashers. The eggs were perfectly cooked. This was washed down with a lot of Yorkshire tea that really hit the spot. Simple but perfect. Service was efficient and friendly without being overbearing. We will return.

We went to the tea rooms for a light lunch and had a toasted sandwich and a panini plus tea for two. The food was delicious and nicely presented. We talked to the owner about the history of the Denby Dale pie and he gave...us a book about its history. Such a lovely thing to do. Very charming.
