The Parlour Tea Rooms

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.

Having stayed at home since mid March we were nervous about going out. We reserved a table outside. There are screens and distance marks, staff were attentive, so we felt safe. We had a delicious quiche and healthy mixed salad in a relaxed atmosphere. We shall return.

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

My husband,daughter and myself had a lovely breakfast two weeks in a row.the food was very nice well cooked,social distance made us feel safe. All the staff were very polite and helpful. The tea rooms was very clean.all in all one of derbys EXCELLENT teas rooms.this will become a regular place for us to visit.EXCELLENT value for money .

We pre-booked afternoon tea for 6 as a post-lockdown treat and took advantage of the Eat Out to Help Out scheme which gave us a 50% reduction on price. We arrived on time and were ushered to our reserved table which was beautifully laid out with fine china. The sandwiches, cakes and scones were delicious. There was plenty of choice and plenty of food. Tea and soft drinks were regularly topped up as required. The staff were helpful and attentive and a great time was had by all. Many thanks to you all at The Parlour for a lovely time. Definitely recommend!

I love this tearooms and after a disastrous start to the year with a flood and Covid-19 I wanted to support this lovely place . Safety is well considered for the owners and visitors . The owners politely asked to explain. Tea and cakes as fabulous as always . Nice space outside and plenty of space to social distance and hand sanitiser available and use encouraged . Toilets clean and again safety considered . Looking forwards to supporting this great little place and it’s right at the back entrance to Markeaton Park so great stop during or after a nice walk .

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...

I visited with a friend for an afternoon cup of tea and cake. The first impression was not good as we were told off for entering through the wrong door which wasn't clearly signed. The tearoom itself it is quaint and very well designed and exactly the sort of place that I usually enjoy visiting. The outside seating was lovely and social distancing was well organised. Sadly the poor attitude of the lady serving continued; having had no welcome we then didn't feel that our custom was appreciated. When bringing our tea the lady put her finger in the milk jug and only took it back to change it when we said that we weren't happy about it: she was quite grumpy about this. This is a lovely place bu...

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...
