My son and daughter-in-law treated me to a visit to Chatsworth House, followed by Afternoon Tea at The Cavendish for my birthday - both were fabulous, and I thoroughly enjoyed both experiences. The Cavendish Restaurant is gorgeously decorated, the food was delicious, and service was excellent. I had the vegetarian option, and was really impressed with the quality and flavours. My son and daughter-in-law also enjoyed their non vegetarian afternoon tea. There was plenty of food, in fact there was so much we ended up taking some home with us. Wonderful dining experience and I would highly recommend booking here.
I stopped to eat lunch here after touring the house, before going through the gardens, and I'm so glad I did. I opted for the 3-course lunch, and though I felt like having a nap afterwards, I definitely knew it would serve me well on the long walks I had ahead of me. The atmosphere was elevated but accessible, just as it should be at a tourist site that attracts a wide range of visitors. They knew the assignment when it came to the music as well, all your favorite romantic movie soundtrack scores. The food and service was the real highlight. My server, Petra, was so kind. The delivery of my food was well-paced. I can highly recommend the trifle and prawn cocktail. Though "prawn" in the UK are just shrimp in the U.S., so don't order thinking you're getting the big guys. But, the highlight was the Sea Bass on chickpeas. The flavors were so well-balanced against a mild fish and the textures were balanced as well. What a pleasant surprise and not what inwould expect at a tourist attraction.
Our restaurant experience ruined what was going to be a lovely day celebrating our wedding anniversary. The lady serving us was being very judgmental & patronising of us ordering one afternoon tea to share between the two of us. Tried to put us off ordering 1 afternoon tea , like desperately tried probs so the company can gain more money I feel like when you order an item from the menu, you are paying for that item, not for how many of you are eating it. She spoke down to me & my husband - one of us/both of us could have had an eating disorder/body dysmorphia/recovering from obesity/on medication/mental health struggles. I feel like if this was said to the wrong person it could have adverse effects. Also the quantity of food for just under £50 was appalling... I feel like there was more quantity of food in the £3.50 ice cream cone we got after. The ice cream definitely left us feeling more full. Again, I understand it was made for 1 person, but honestly it wasn’t even enough for one person. We wouldn’t have been that bothered if the service wasn’t so terrible. I mentioned this to the manger who said he would mention it to the waitress… never got an apology or even how was your experience not even a goodbye. Not that we were expecting this but the level of respect and service was at an all time low. I’m not one to complain but this personally really ruined my day. 10/10 would NEVER recommend the afternoon tea And one last thing - they bring the afternoon tea dishes out 1 at a time with about what felt like 5-10mins waiting in between
Reserved an outdoor table as I was in a wheelchair and had two small dogs, was informed by phone on the way to Chatsworth that afternoon tea cannot be served outdoors as it is served on wedgewood crockery which they wont use outdoors. We decided to keep the reservation and have the regular lunch, which they WILL serve outdoors. As we approached the counter to be seated, the person behind the desk was on the phone, looked at us and turned her back on us - eventually a server came to seat us - not the best customer service. We asked if they would serve us the afternoon tea on normal plates which they wouldn’t - but informed us it was because there would be “wasps and flies” attracted by the jam?! A different server came out and told us it was due to the first reason given wedgewood. The three course lunch was nice apart from the vegan dessert - a rock hard pineapple finger and a scoop of sorbet. It was very difficult to even cut through and contained some of the tough outer part of the pineapple. This was generously taken off the bill, although when I sent it back I wasn’t offered an alternative, replacement or informed about what was going on, it was just removed from the table and the bill was brought soon after. I think a wise thing to do would be to have the vegan desserts at least one that are advertised with the afternoon tea - as options for the general menu - which sound really good - because no vegan / or anybody wants a single “poached” pineapple finger at that price point or at all. I bet the crumble could be so easily veganised too with minimum prep. Service overall felt a bit clumsy / food was ok. Gnocchi was 10/10 Not sure if the outdoor ban on afternoon tea is stated on the website, if so that’s my fault - if not, add it! I’m just moaning because nowhere does vegan afternoon tea and I was excited.
We spent the day in the Chatsworth House gardens to celebrate our daughter's birthday. We had lunch at the Cavendish Restaurant. It was an extremely pleasant experience. The food was absolutely brilliant. Service was first class. We were assisted by Adam. He was extremely polite, well spoken and efficient. The restaurant was clean. The atmosphere was very calming. We all had a great time. Our daughter said she had a memorable time. I have no hesitation in recommending the restaurant.
Combined a visit to Chatsworth House with afternoon tea, as it was my Mum's birthday. Really great selection of food and we loved the extra courses that we haven't come across in other afternoon teas. So much food, brought the leftovers home! Vegetarian options: I was asked my dietary requirements and provided me with the no meat but fish ok version but the total veggie version looked great
I ordered the chicken, was absolutely beautiful and the black forest was also delicious. Our servers were very sweet and bathrooms were clean. Relatively pricy but that’s expected.Food: 5/5
Came to the long queu for super delicious ice cream. I got the Bakewell tart flavour which is died for. However, service was very slow, short of staffs for a bank holiday weekend.Food: 5/5
Went for afternoon tea. Food and waiting staff excellent. All in all, it's a perfect afternoon. Not cheap at £49 per person, but as a special treat, it was wonderful. I will certainly visit again.Food: 5/5
Tourist trap. £49pp for afternoon tea and the scones tasted worse than what you may serve yourself using heated Waitrose ones. The sweet pastry plate was also over-sweet and tasted plastic, unfortunately. And I have to say their booth is also too tight to extend my legs.
