Please do not go here if you are a decaf drinker. All we wanted to buy was coffee and cake takeaway. They said that they did not do decaf! So, instead of going to another cafe, we said that we could supply our own and went back to the campervan to get my coffee. The young people at the counter seemed very inexperienced and the young guy kept saying "I've never done decaf before" as if it was something totally different. I said that you fill it and tamper it the same as caffeinated and asked for a long black. When I received the coffee, it was really weak and they complained and said that the coffee got stuck in the machine. I use my decaf coffee with my expresso machine all the time at home and, if it is tampered properly, the coffee does not get trapped.

Read moreThe only reason they get two stars is because the coffe was good. We both ordered smashed avo and feta on toast, poached egg on top, my partner had bacon as well. The shepherd avo was not ripe, so the bread was covered in chunks of mostly inedible hard pieces of avo, a couple of small lumps of feta. My poached egg yolk was broken and my partner’s serve of bacon was small and rock hard like the bread. The waitress slapped the plates on the table, grunted and stormed away. It was like a scene from Faulty Towers.
Derby itself is beautiful just don’t eat...
