I took part in the half day sourdough course and it was exceptional. Keith knew everything there was to know about the bread making process. He made it informational, relaxed and fun. I ended up with two incredible loaves of sourdough as well as some Chelsea buns. Lots of snacks and drinks throughout the course was an additional bonus. It was a great way to spend a Saturday morning and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to improve their baking. Thanks Keith and the entire Loaf team, you've got something really special here!

OMG What's not to like! Lovely village (very small) with some typical village shops including the Loaf which is a bakery/cafe. The bread is famous across Derbyshire (and can be sourced at Matlock market on Wednesdays just be early!) and is just amazing. The cafe is busy locally and rightly so..... 5*s across the board

This is our local bakery. The bread is great, but I highly recommend their chicken and mushroom slices! As well as shopping we?ve also done one of their baking courses and have two more books. It was great fun and very informative too.

A local gem, no outside seating so can be busy, crowded and hot.

Nice place , could do with a more varied menu for breakfast . My order has been forgotten quiet often and when I asked about it the last time I was told they were busy and it was in the way , not very friendly - I watched as they then proceeded to speak to another team member and quiet clearly it had been forgotten .
Dog friendly and the pizza take a way is great
The quiche to take out is tasty

Ordered 2 pasties which were piping hot and really good. Called in another day for cake to take to a sick relative. Didn't get to try them but judging by the ack of choice when I got there in the afternoon they must be good

Came in and ordered a sausage roll and cake - best sausage roll I?ve ever eaten and was hot (not dried out - perfect) and one of the nicest cakes. Well worth the price

Had a mozzarella, tomato and basil sandwich recently and had to write a review. it was amazing, the chutney with it was delicious and the bread fresh and soft. it's lovely how it's changed and you can sit in now too. Thank you, I'll be back soon!

I just love the food from this place and will go at every chance I can. It brings back so many good memories from my childhood, staff were friendly, and the seating area is very clean and tidy

I have just attended the Sourdough beginners baking workshop on Saturday and what a fantastic time I had. The Baker Keith was so helpful and really funny. The workshop was so informative, but such a good laugh at the same time. I definitely learnt new skills. The workshop upstairs was boiling hot, which is only to be expected with all if the ovens on, so definitely wear lightweight clothing, you can layer up if needed. The pastries provided to keep us going were amazing, the best I've had and plenty of tea & coffee of choice, along with lots of fresh water.
I'm booked onto the Christmas baking workshop and can't wait now. Thank you for a great experience. I'm looking forward to bringing family to the cafe.

The rarebit was absolutely delicious: really exceptional. The bakery itself is a rather hot environment on a hot day, but we took away as a picnic and it was just wonderful. Highly recommended.
