About Woodheads Cafe

Family friendly cafe / restaurant in the centre of Chesterfield. Serving meals and breakfasts all day every day. Waitress service upstairs. Licensed.

Woodheads Cafe Description

Woodheads was formed in Liverpool in 1844, and has had a presence in Chesterfield since the 1860s, when Woodheads was a shop selling tea and coffee.

Ian Cooper and Stephanie Mallinder have been the owners since 2013, and in that time have worked hard to make Woodheads a favourite eating destination for hundreds of people every week.

We are situated in the centre of Chesterfield, just behind Low Pavement in an independent shopping area called The Yards.

We offer good quality home cooked food at sensible prices all day. A great place for an early breakfast, a quick cuppa with friends or a hot meal after a busy shopping session. We are even licensed for alcohol upstairs too and have a range of bottled beer, wine, cider and spirits.

Woodheads has two sections, a downstairs cafe serving drinks and snacks and an upstairs 66 seater restaurant where you can enjoy friendly waitress service. If you prefer to have your meal downstairs in the cafe area or outside on our tables and chairs then that is fine too.

All meals, breakfasts and drinks can be served as a take-away.

Both upstairs and down we have coffee machines and we can produce anything the big coffee shops can, but at a fraction of the cost. Mochaccino, cappuccino, we do the lot, but if you prefer a normal instant coffee we can do that too.

We go out of our way to make sure you have exactly what you fancy, so please do not hesitate to ask. We often do off menu requests, and our regular customers feel comfortable enough to ask us to cook their favourite meals. These we put on our daily changing specials board. We have recently made Tiramisu, Hommity Pie, and Cauliflower Cheese, to name just a few.

We pride ourselves in being friendly and attentive and getting to know how our customers like their meals so they can be just right. Nothing is too much trouble for our friendly team of staff.

We have a range of vegetarian meals, and are just developing some gluten free options also. Other intolerances are not a problem, we try to cater for all. If you are diabetic we have reduced sugar jam and marmalade.

visited Thursday with my sister. First time had meal there. Both had jacket potatoes. The food was excellent but could have been a touch hotter. The service was excellent and the café was exceptionally clean with a friendly atmosphere. Will certainly visit again next time in Chesterfield.

Wasn't too bad didn't like the smell of grease thou up stairs

Often pop in here when I'm in Chesterfield. There is usually a woman with shortish hair serving and she's fine. Yesterday it was a different member of staff & I wasn't happy. Her daughters were in as customers and there was a lot of loud family talk. The member of staff also mentioned a few times how she was ill with a cold & cough that wouldn't go. Not what you want to hear when you've ordered food!

User

ordered 2 kids meals the chips and chicken nuggets was so greasy, the only thing the kids ate was the peas I had a bacon sandwich which was mostly fat :( very disappointing! It does need a good scrub up as the place is quite gross, old and fusky :/ won't return unfortunately!

User

Went in this afternoon was very disappointed with the food and general cleansing of their glassware. I ordered meat and potato pie with mash.... Pastry wasn't very good and the mash was powered....not good... To add insult to injury the glass they served my drink in was extremely dirty....I previously would have recommended this establishment but not after your efforts today. Also I might add I mentioned the fact that the glass was dirty and I was still charged for the drink that I didn't/couldn't drink.

Today a friend and I called at the Woodheads Cafe in Chesterfield. We decided to sit downstairs as we both suffer with back pain. I ordered 2 items off the lunch menu and 2 Latte's. The employee short changed me and I corrected her on the £1 short change. She got a £1 coin out of the till and LOBBED it towards my open hand, The money missed my hand and went straight into one of the mugs of Latte. To my shock and bewilderment, she picked up a spoon and dragged the £1 coin out of the bottom of the mug and tossed it on the side. She then had the nerve to pass me the mug of Latte. I went back to my friend and told her what had happened and she said not to bother. The drink was not touched by either of us. I only wish I had gone to management and reported her for her unhygienic behavior.

I think a word with health and hygiene is the only option to take in this case.
