The Great Barn Restaurant

Had a nice flat white and a Caramelised biscuit blondie which taste even better then it looks!

I visited Hardwick Hall on 01/09/2021 and I'm writing this review as I sit and enjoy myself. I was a little dubious about coming in here after reading the negative reviews, however my experience was fantastic.

The staff were welcoming and friendly as I arrived around 9:45am. I wanted a cup of tea with a scone but there were no scones on display. I asked if they had any available and a member of staff went to ask if they were our of the oven yet. They were and she brought me a lovely.warm scone with clotted cream. I helped myself to a pot of strawberry jam and the lady asked if I wanted any more milk. I said yes and she happily.topped up my milk jug. When I got to the table, I found that the teapot full to the brim with hot water, it made over 3 cups of tea for myself.

Overall, a fantastic experience and I'll definitely be back. ♥

Good place for a sit down and a cuppa after tramping around this glorious estate. Lots of helpful and kind staff. Gets busy and there was a bit of a queue - this was later in the day post the lunchtime rush. Ginger beer and a pot of green tea and twud have been rude not to sample a cake or two, hee hee. Not normally a fan of brownies, but the chocolate brownie was good. The classic sponge was too sugary sweet and synthetically tasting for me. Ate it anyway, lolol, snort snort, grunty pig! Has outdoor seating.

Good selection of snacks and meals for when you are visiting the nearby Hall. I enjoyed my vegan festive bap when I ate there on New Year's Day.

Very nice place to stop for a tea and cake.

Excellent venue, helpful, friendly and very pleasant staff Recommended

Just off junction 11A of the M1, the place does lovely coffee and the best cheese and ham ever. Well worth a visit.

A consistently great place. Friendly staff. Great Food. Breakfast sausage or bacon sandwich excellent value at about 4 quid (served before noon but not that well publicised on the menu board). We go here time and again on a Sunday morning. How a cafe should be and shows up Clumber NT cafe for all it's flaws.

At the moment they are working with a reduced menu following Covid but I was assured that would be remedied,but what they are selling are wonderfully cakes and scones, and yummy coffees, a big thank you to the management who have finally accepted the popular request to provide an indoor area for dog walkers and their pooches, we walk our dogs twice a week in the park in all weather's and a warm place to relax and dry of is wonderfull. Thank you

Great restaurant offering good quality food with excellent & very efficient service

Great cafe for a bite to eat in the grounds of Hardwick Hall

Delicious food delightful setting

Meals were delicious. Very fast service. Coffee and chocolate beetroot cake excellent. Would certainly eat there again.

The best food and drink in all the national trust venues we have visited.they are all reasonably good but this one is exceptional.it was a very busy day when we called and as my wife had trouble walking she had a chair brought to her until she was found a table and was taken to it when it was available.i shall be forever grateful.thank you.

Good quality. As good value as any NT cafe can be. Staff always helpful. Toilets clean. Very good disabled access /toilets.

Excellent staff a really good place to meet up for a coffee or even if you want a meal the food is really good and they cater for vegans

Food is nice. Prices reflect this. Places outside if you want to have your own picnic.

Lovely sandwiches and cake. And all in a good cause - The National Trust generally, and Hardwick Hall specifically 😊!

One of the best jp with tuna and crisp salad enjoyed here today. Staff very pleasant as well.

Eat here most weekends food good first class cappuccino and very pleasant staff even bring out water for the dog
