We had an absolute wonderful stay at The Family Tree! My now husband booked the entire place for my bridal party to stay in the night before as a surprise and even the private function room the following morning for us to use for getting ready. If that wasn’t enough, the breakfast spread that they put on was just out of this world! We all felt so looked after and really added something special to our wedding. Christine and the whole team really went above and beyond to make the start to our wedding celebrations truly memorable. Thank you!

Nice looking cafe. Unfortunately on this occasion we waited over an hour for a couple of sandwiches. When I went up the the till to ask how long it would be I did see a sign apologising for delays, this was partially hidden under other leaflets. It would have been good to have been told by the service staff seating us. We wouldn't have ordered food if this was known. When the food arrived the chips I had were cold and my vegan baguette was dry. Not worth the wait. Hopefully this was due to the cafe being busy. I live close by and this was my first visit so I will give it another chance. The young service staff were trying their best and were polite and pleasant.

Wonderful tea rooms and cafe! The staff are friendly and happy to adapt orders to suit! Menu is extremely varied and delicious! The tea isn't the best although I am used to strong Yorkshire tea! Fab place to take her family and dog friendly!

We've been here a few times now and the service and food is always fantastic. They've got a lovely enclosed courtyard area with around ten tables which is great for eating outdoors. They do a lovely all day breakfast, but also the salads and Quiche is great too. Highly recommend stopping here if you're walking down the Cromford canal as it's just a minute off the route near Whatstandwell station. You won't be disappointed

Always a warm welcome here , great coffee and lovely cakes especially the scones . Service can be a bit slow sometimes. Prices are competitive. Closes at 4pm so don't leave it too late ! Parking can be a problem at busy times .

I have been here quite a lot with work colleagues and it has become the go to place for catch ups with local friends. The atmosphere is great. The cakes are amazing and the food is delicious!!

What a brilliant find. The rooms are very clean and nicely decorated and the food is delicious....but even better is simply the wonderful and welcoming service. Above and beyond. Great place.

Doesn’t seem to be very organised, staff seemed overwhelmed and almost paranoid (as overheard by another customer).Left waiting for 15 minutes and other customers who had been seated after us where having their order taken immediately. We left after waiting 20 minutes total.I do want to stress the young members of staff seemed to be more “on it” the slightly older waitress sort of just pottered about and didn’t show a lot of urgency.There was no structure to their service and we were just left really disappointed. Such a shame as well because the food before has been really nice.We then went to a pub in Belper, who were extremely busy. They made room for us and we were sat down within 2 minutes and drinks order taken *immediately*. Within another 30 minutes the food we ordered had arrived. Staff were extremely lovely and attentive. Such a massive difference from the Family Tree.
