"First visit stopped off for a tea at the end of a 10 mile walk along the Manifold Trail. As you walk in there is basically one long table down the left hand side and two rows of tables down the right. The table on the left appeared to be occupied by some locals and, as we would later find out, staff, whilst of the 6 ? tables down the right one was occupied, 4 had dishes and trays on them which had not been cleared, and one was clear, clean and empty where we sat . I notice an earlier comment about a member of staff playing with her nails, and whilst there was no evidence of that, the place just didn 't seem to have that spark, that cleanliness, that marks out a place where you 'd really want to return to from an average place where you wouldn 't go out of your way to return. A couple of previous reviewers have done 'then and now ' type reviews people who clearly visited under a previous owner but as a first time visitor all I 'd say is: you 've got a fantastic venue at the end of a popular walking and cycle route first impressions count, so you need to make sure that tables are kept clean. There 's really no excuse for tables having trays of old food on them for 15 20 minutes when there are customers coming in and, as we found out, one member of staff had been sitting down and chatting to locals on the long table whilst all this had been going on."

Excellent takeaway sandwiches on delicious local bakery bread. Staff couldn’t have been more helpful and friendly. Came back after a long walk for some freshly baked cakes, another yummy treat. Would highly recommend.

We called here for a coffee and snack after a day out. There is a good selection of food, beautiful cakes and nice local produce on sale. Plenty of outside seating and some seating inside which enables social distancing. A lovely end to our day!

We stopped by for a drink and a snack after cycle ride. We got a warm welcome, even though it was near to closing time.Service good, very helpful. Nice food, cakes fantastic. Really enjoyed it, we went again a week later. Same experience. Great!

Returning after several months for a coffee and a snack we were pleasantly surprised that we could still order some tasty takeaways. Social distancing is good and there were additional tables outside as indoor eating understandably not available. Friendly and helpful staff as usual.

A lovely afternoon out with my daughter. I visited and camped in and around Manifold from a kid to my late teens. I love the area. Visited here on Friday 24/7/20 with my daughter after my dad told me about it. It was lovely we had an ice cream and a cold drink. Bakewell tart ice cream is stunning. We had a lovely time

Good to find The Tea Junction open in early January. As usual we were greeted by friendly staff and after ordering a pot of tea and pork and stuffing bap for my other half I asked if they could do mushrooms on toast for me which wasn’t on the menu. They said no trouble and a generous portion duly arrived. Apart from having to keep our coats on as it wasn’t too warm, we had a pleasant snack break and couldn’t resist taking away two huge fruit scones for later.

Stopped for a coffee and cake only to find a very basic and unimpressive cafe offering hot/cold drinks and cake and little else. Only 3 tables were available to sit at, due to the reorganisation of the building in the COVID 19 situation. One of the tables was taken by the owner and a friend, instead of offering it to customers. A lot more space was available in the building which was also partly a visitors centre for the Manifold trail, a path running along the river of the same name, plus a former industrial railway used for the mining of copper. It just appeared as though this was no longer relevant, and therefore not used to its full potential. The building next door was far more interest...
