Easter and bank holidays peeking around the corner means right now is the ideal time to enjoy coffee and cake in a quaint cafe or tearoom.
It’s the heady combination of the hiss of a heavy duty coffee machine in the background of a cafe, flanked by counters chock-full of light-as-air pastries, that makes visiting a cafe or tearoom so much fun.
Here are a few spots in Derbyshire and the Peak District that you could enjoy over the coming months.
From a pretty courtyard cafe that also doubles up as a sun-trap, to a newly revamped Mercia Marina tearoom, our round-up is crammed with ace spaces serving fabulous tea and cake.
We would love to hear your recommendations too, please do get in touch by emailing [email protected] and we’ll take a look.
