What Caroline Deschamps doesn't like about The Friars Tearooms:
I ordered 2 panini s. After half hour wait still no sign of them so asked at the counter. Cafe wasn’t particularly busy when we were there. Still no sign of them 10 mins later, go up to the counter again , this time they’re handed to me. Sit down, begin to eat. They were cold, fillings hadn’t been heated up properly. Back to the counter for the 3rd time. Decided to stand there whilst they’re heated up- another 5 mins... View all feedback. What Derbyshireflyboy likes about The Friars Tearooms:
Came here on a recent visit to the area, we had very nice jacket potatoes, but the cake was a little dry and the coffee was bitter. Two out of three girls serving were very pleasant but one of them was permanently miserable, such a shame, maybe she had piles ? Nice cosy warm cafe and gift shop. View all feedback.
