  “Great lunch, the soup of the day (pea & mint) was nice. However, it’s hard to get a table during main meal times.”

  “Such a fabulous room, plenty of space for pushchair. Ordering system fabulous, friendly service, quick delivery of food and well presented. Reasonable prices for venue and honestly one of the best vegan scones ever eaten.”

  “I had cream of celeriac soup with a cheese scone and it was excellent. A rare soup flavour but delicious and a good flavour. As with all NT cheese scones, it was lovely, especially dipped in the soup. It's a better NT café than most. Recommended.”

  “Shocked at the prices for national trust food. Very reasonable and well worth it for the quality alone. Good size portion and well presented. Faultless service and all this in the house's old kitchen complete with copper pans on the wall and a large open fireplace.”

  “main only 2 choices both vegaterian. only meat in snacks (sausage roll or bacon bun) extortionate. no meat sandwiches. very little tuna in the tuna & cucumber. Good crisps. Best eat somewhere else. staff ok, relatively clean.”

  “Glorious sunny day so sitting outside for a coffee, overlooking the lake and bridge was very pleasant. After a short walk we returned, this time to a table in the shade, for lunch. Easy to order and a short wait until the food was delivered. Another lovely experience; wonderful views, relatively cool and good food - and the company of our friends. Excellent morning / early afternoon.”

  “Nice place to sit down and relax little bit 😊. The Cream Tea is lovely ( fruit scones were nice and still warm ). But remember this is NationalTrust Cafe so might be overpriced for some. Otherwise great and fast service. 👍”

  “Can't beat a National Trust cuppa! Unlike many NT cafés Kedleston operates table service. Attractive peacock fan menus and prettily framed table numbers are set out in an airy, high ceilinged former kitchen, with original features apparent. Some tables are on the lawn outside for good weather dining. A limited but interesting hot meal selection with specials board. Lovely service.”

  “Lovely place to enjoy a coffee and cake, or a full blown meal if you're hungrier. You enter into a large, high ceiling hall, with most of the tables in neat rows with seating that matches the surroundings. To the left is a very large fire place, and we were lucky enough to sit here in a couple of comfortable armchairs. Ordering takes place at a small till situated right at the rear of the hall, next to the kitchen entrance. British weather permitting, there is plenty of seating outside.”
