Quackers Café
Free to park, you can sit and enjoy a breakfast sandwich, coffee, and cake or a spot of light lunch in Quackers Cafe, which is open every day between 10am and 4pm. No need to book and dogs are always welcome!
Serving delicious sweet and savoury treats, our cakes are from our on-site bakery The Bakehouse, and our incredible sausage rolls are made here on the Estate using meat from The Thornbridge Smallholding. We stock a range of produce from The Thornbridge Smallholding which is available for you to buy and take home.
Hiking on the Monsal Trail? Drop in for a cheeky vino or a pint - we always have a few Thornbridge Brewery beers on draught as well as a good range of cans and bottles in the fridge.
We serve one of the best traditional Afternoon Teas in the Peak District, you can even add a glass of fizz! Find out more here.
Access to the Quackers cafe is free and we only take bookings for Afternoon Tea or pre-order an afternoon tea picnic box to enjoy anywhere in the garden.
We ensure that we have the best selection of choices for those with dietary requirements, catering for gluten-free, vegan, and vegetarian diets. Please ask our cafe staff about options!
Picnics
We kindly ask that guests do not bring their own picnics, however, all cafe items can be served as a takeaway for you to enjoy in The Gardens.
Car Clubs
We love hosting car clubs at Quackers Cafe! We even open a bit earlier to cater for Car Club breakfasts before coming out to admire all the vehicles. Our car park can fit up to 140 cars and is a 2 minute walk away from the cafe, gardens, Emporium and the Monsal Trail.
