The Parlour Tea Rooms - Derby

Superb little place to grab a cuppa and bite,dog friendly with treats. Clean and very reasonable prices. If the Eggy bread is on, get that, really enjoyable. Staff very pleasant. Worth a little bit of an extra walk out of Markeaton.

Ive been coming here for years as its very quaint and in a convenient location right next to Markeaton Park. The Orangery cafe is often too busy for my liking so I come here to have a pot of tea, cake and sometimes breakfast whilst I chill out or read a book or draw. Theres an aviary out back and its lovely to sit and listen to the birds singing. It backs onto a farm yard and theres often geese and ducks running about. Its a nice place to take kids so they can see the birds and animals. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Please think twice about going to the Orangery or the garden centre cafe next door as the parlour to me is more of a relaxing environment. Very nice homemade cakes too! Give it a go!

Pleasant surroundings both indoors out. Good food very pleasant staff. Varied seasonal menu. Very convenient for passing cyclists who can dine outdoors. Child friendly easy for anyone with mobility challenges. Will go again.

I have been to a few afternoon teas in Derby and this was by far the best. I rung in the morning to ask if my Gran and myself could come. Usually you need to call a day in advance but they accommodated us anyway! We arrived to a beautifully set up table. Gorgeous table cloth, wonderful China plates, fairy lights it was wonderful. The afternoon tea was all prepared on our arrival. The staff were so kind, helpful and welcoming. The food was amazing. They make all their own sandwiches, quiches and cakes. The quiche and the scones were particularly amazing. My Gran said it was the best scone she has ever had. We had a wonderful time and were made to feel so special. I never usually leave reviews but I am happy to support this lovely cafe. We will be coming again, thanks for having us! Jess

Celebrated my mums birthday having afternoon tea, there was more than enough sandwiches, tea and cakes to keep us going and the staff were very friendly and nothing was too much. I would definitely visit here again and if you were to visit, your sure to not be disappointed. Thankyou again for a lovely afternoon x
