The Friars house Cafe gallery

Lovely quaint cafe/tea rooms. This place is very popular for those who know it's there. When you have visited for the first time you will go back again and a again I assure you. Nice place to catch up with a friend over a coffee and a piece of cake. There is room for a few cars but you can park on the road outside. Toilets are a little tricky to find on the first visit

This place is such a little gem, absolutely gorgeous food and cakes. All homemade, and the best place in dale abbey by far. I love the quiche and salad the best, and if you haven’t tried it you must! I also really enjoy the crispy cakes and rocky roads. It’s a real treat, and the staff are always so helpful and always ensure your looked after and they also accommodate any dietary requirements. I’ve gone up many times while being at weight watchers, and they’ve made me a lovely ham salad. It doesn’t feel like your in a diet, as the food is always fresh with lots of variety.

Delicious home cooked savouries, cakes and tray bakes and very good coffee served by friendly owners and staff. The location is gorgeous too. Have been in the past to functions here (lunch once and afternoon teas) and it's perfect for small to medium groups to get together for a birthday or treat.

Lovely cherry scone and butter. The Americano coffee was OK but nothing special. I thought it may have been filter whereas I was expecting something like a large espresso. My wife was happy with her Mocha which was definitely made from freshly ground beans. Lovely environment and lovely staff. 😀

I was invited back by the owner for a free coffee. This was excellent. Thank you, for taking the trouble to respond to my review. I would highly recommend this venue to everyone.

A great find in the pretty village of Dale Abbey. This art cafe is in the grounds of a family chocolate box cottage/farmhouse. It’s so English with the scones, jackets and quiche bubbling away in the Aga. The owner is very warm and friendly and nothing is to much trouble. We had the scones and they came with an abundance of butter - delicious 😋 They only open at certain times so keep an eye on their socials.

Cosy cafe with freshly cooked and hearty lunches (goat's cheese tart pictured) and tasty cakes. Friendly and accommodating staff. Nice walked route nearby (i.e. Hermitage). Lots of good reasons to return.

What a find! Very popular narrow road so parking can be tricky but this cafe was the best! Outdoor seating, china crockery with character and the BIGGEST cake slices ever at £3.50 with homemade whipped cream and a selection of scones. Owner is looking to reduce opening hours so check they're open before you go. Then gi first a huge walk!

Absolutely delightful victorian cafe/ tea stop with cakes, pastries, and the nicest scones ever. Lovely staff and top notch cappuccinos. Seating both inside and outside in the leafy forecourt. Well worth a visit if you are in the area.
