In the heart of historic Ashbourne The
Gallery Café is situated within a restored 19th
century building which was once the towns
Magistrates Court. It is undoubtedly one of the finest cafés
of its kind in Derbyshire. It sits above the St
John Street Gallery, which showcases contemporary art and crafts in many
forms. The Café and Gallery have been owned and run for the last
six years by Glen Bentley and Rob Watkin, and has recently been reopened after a
complete refurbishment. They want not only to return the café to its former
popularity, but surpass it in terms of quality and ambience.
The spacious café seats 40 and is open from Monday
to Saturday from 9am to 5.30pm. Glen does all of the
cooking, and the majority of the produce is sourced locally,
ensuring freshness and flavour in the range of home-cooked
meals and snacks. The Gallery Café is a member of the Peak District Cuisine Group, and in 2006 won
three "Great Taste Awards" from the Guild of Fine Food; a gold
award for salad dressing and two bronze awards for gluten-free
brownies and marmalade.
So if you're in Ashbourne, why not visit the St John
Street Gallery and then head upstairs for a snack, a coffee or a
meal. Children are more than welcome.
