We go every week if not twice to village kitchen, we just love it. The place is a hidden gem, well not so hidden now as it’s not very often it’s quiet now! The food is amazing, honestly the best cafe around. The staff are...so lovely and friendly. We always sit outside in all weathers, the staff will pop the heater on for us. My little girl loves visiting because of the toys outside.More
Lovely hidden place to visit for a relaxing drink or something to eat throughout the day. Situated in a converted stables building, behind the Church in Edwinstowe where legends have it that Robin Hood and Maid Marian wed. Eady reach of Sherwood Forest, the cafe...offers seating both inside and outside away from the busy thoroughfare. Wide choice of lunches, snacks and cakes available; plus many hot and cold drinks, all served on vintage style plates to suit the heritage of the location. Friendly staff. Worth a visit.More
Had a lovely breakfast under a canopy in the courtyard. It was a real pleasure to enjoy good food in a very peaceful setting. Excellent.
Visited today for the first time. Nice setting with friendly staff. Menu is good. Some different offerings to the norm, small plates/tapas type dishes also. Inside seating is a bit limited from what a could see?
A Lovely Cafe with excellent service from friendly staff. Delicious food and lovely drinks Perfect.
Tucked in the heart of Edwinstowe, charming place with gluten free options, accommodating staff and absolutely brilliant food! Even the side salad is far from boring Nice coffee and great selection of loose leaf teas to go with amazing looking cakes 6 of us sat...inside, warming our bones from the winter cold, theres kid and dog friendly seating outsideMore
We have visited here a few times after discovering it this Summer. Excellent menu choice with specials as well. Lovely quiet courtyard setting. Staff are friendly and all the food is the best quality and home made. Dog friendly (our dog loved it too). One...of those places where it's obvious that a lot of thought and hard work has gone in to everything. A popular little gem, and it deserves to be.More
Took a trip here today, we were looking for a tearoom close to Sherwood Forest. Definitely the right choice. Family members had lasagne and a tuna melt, both huge and lovely. Kids choices we found limited, ours have typical kids plain tastes so they just...had the kids picnic box. The star of the show was the separate vegan menu. I had a delicious salad with grains, potato salad and coleslaw. They had several other options I would have happily eaten them all, spoilt for choice. Would definitely return.More
Lovely little family friendly cafe. Menu isn’t huge, but there were appealing sounding vegetarian options nonetheless. We had some really nicely spiced onion bhajis and a cheese and mushroom quesadilla. Would happily eat here again.
We stumbled upon this little gem whilst on a visit to Edwinstowe. We were staying in a lodge in Clumber Park and had decided to explore nearby towns and villages, take a light lunch and then self cater in the evening. The sun was shining...and we managed to grab a table in the very sheltered courtyard area. I had loaded nachos while my husband opted for pate with toasted focaccia. Both dishes arrived promptly and were delicious - a perfect light lunch. We then shared the best Tarte au Citron we have had in years, complete with clotted cream and Raspberry Coulis. The meal was completed with an excellent double espresso, an americano and change from £20. There was no kitchen area to speak of and the owner and her staff managed to produce good food quickly and efficiently, and were all very friendly. Well done team Village KitchenMore
I have been here on 4 occasions. Each time has been perfect. I love introducing friends to this venue, Wonderful light but filling breakfasts and lovely tasting and well presented lunches. I can't fault the place. Everything is 'spot on' fresh and the staff a...wonderfully friendly. I pleasure to give it the highest rating possibleMore
This is a thoroughly delightful spot for a breakfast, lunch or morning or afternoon tea, if you happen to visiting Sherwood Forest or the village of Edwinstowe. The cafe / coffee shop is located just off Mansfield Road, in a collection of shops / businesses...in the Church Farm Centre. It’s well-signed on Mansfield Road, and it is just by the entrance to the Church of St Mary (where legend has Robin Hood marrying Maid Marion). The Village Kitchen serves up a delectable selection of soups, sandwiches, toasties and paninis, and more substantial lunch offerings such as homemade lasagna, quiche, and a cheese and potato bake. There's also a lunch-time 'specials' board, with a decent selection of hot dishes and lighter snacks. Add to that a mouth-wateringly sumptuous selection of cakes, scones and slices, and outstanding barista-style coffee, and you have the perfect spot for a perfect bite to eat. We loved our lunch-time visiting here, after a wander through Sherwood Forest and a visit to the Major Oak. There’s inside seating in a fairly small cafe space, but plenty of outside seating, some under canopies with heating. The cafe was very busy inside, so we sat outside. The day was cool but sunny, so we didn’t mind the fresh air at all; blankets are provided for cold knees! I love the vintage chic approach to the cafe: a mismatched but fabulously eclectic mix of crockery and china, the non-matching chairs and tables, and various curiosities in the yard. That kind of look really works for me. It creates a very homely and welcoming feel, unpretentious and not stuffy, but with considerable care and attention given to detail. We had a great lunch. The carrot and coriander soup was a very ample serve, and hot and tasty. The 'Lucy's Club Sandwich (from the 'specials' board) was outstanding; the breaded chicken breast was plump and perfectly cooked, and the sandwich laden with bacon and salad, with crisps and home-made coleslaw on the side. We enjoyed our food very much. A sign of a good cafe for me is its coffee. We had a perfectly brewed double espresso, and a latte. Coffee at its best, that’s for sure. Service was prompt, welcoming and friendly, without being overbearing or obtrusive. It was certainly ‘service with a smile’. We had parked in the visitor centre4 car park (£4.00 for the day), and the cafe is just a short walk from there. We loved our visit there; we recommend it highly, and will certainly be back when next we are passing through the village.More
Visited this lovely cafe whilst on holiday nearby after looking online for a dog friendly place to eat. We sat outside in the courtyard and were greeted warmly by staff. We had paninis and toasties which were all delicious and served with a generous, tasty...and colourful side salad. A jar of dog biscuits made sure our pup enjoyed her visit too. Very good service, great food - we hope to return during our holiday.More
Having known Lucy the owner from when she had a cafe in Mansfield town centre some years ago, we had recently moved close to Edwinstowe and had a 5 minute drive to her new venture. There were a lot of tables and chairs outside in...a court yard with plenty of space. I ordered the pork pie special and the wife had the chicken special and we both had some cake afterwards. The staff were friendly and Lucy was happy to see us again after such a long time. We will def be backMore
