Went here a while back and was going to post a review but then decided not too until I heard about what the owner has been doing so sod it here's my review....
Looked nice in a good area was greeted by over worked staff so not friendly. Then I asked about the place and the staff moaned about the job and how tired they was and couldn't wait to finish always a bad sign and tbh I don't care.
Food was really salty and chips covered in fat....said to the staff could I have a replacement but they close soon which was around 3:10pm and don't quote me on this the close time is like 330 but again not my problem....
Was offered a free desert and a refund which we got however after the dirty looks and you can tell the staff was talking about me cause I complained or whatever just made me want to leave so I did. I didn't want to write a review I wanted to just forget what happened but there's is a bunch of story's going round which I won't mention here but it's seedy and dark place and I don't recommend it ....also if the rufe manager or owner wants to write a ridiculous and smarmy comment back I'll happily write more reviews on their behalf ??

Have been here many times over the years. It's one of my favourite places from the food, to the decor.
Food is always fresh and they have good menu pieces. Prices are slightly higher than other cafes, but the food has always been of a very good quality.
It can get quite busy at times, so if your in a larger party of people planning to visit, might be worth seeing if you can book a table.

Loved this place, a little gem for me. Found this by accident, but what a gem.

I meet regularly at the potting shed with friends and family and I would just like to say how good this place is. The 'Gardeners' breakfast is second to none, with excellent produce, which is top quality and cooked to perfection. The staff are great and the atmosphere is always good.The cakes and drinks are also not to be missed.

A Lovely Hidden Gem ? The Potting Shed Café, Derby
I had a wonderful experience at The Potting Shed Café in Derby and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area. The location is charming, with beautiful views and a relaxing atmosphere that makes it perfect for a quiet bite or a catch-up with friends. Parking is conveniently available right outside the café, which made our visit even more hassle-free.
The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, all smiles and happy to help. Their warm service added to the overall comfort and pleasantness of the visit.
We ordered a portion of chips, and I was pleasantly surprised ? they were quite different from the usual style but absolutely delicious and full of flavour. I also had a cheese toastie based on the staff?s recommendation, and I?m glad I did. It came with a fresh side salad and a very tasty coleslaw. The only small downside was that I had asked for the cheese to be melted, but unfortunately, they couldn?t do that ? my only suggestion for improvement.
We also had drinks, and my flat white was exactly what I needed ? smooth, rich, and well-made.
We visited on a Saturday and stayed a bit longer than expected, forgetting they close at 3:30 PM. Despite that, the staff were incredibly kind and didn?t rush us out, allowing us to enjoy our chat peacefully.
All in all, this café is a lovely spot with great food, friendly service, and a beautiful setting. I?ll definitely return if I?m ever in Derby again.

Lovely little cafe for a coffee and ciabatta. Service was quick. Nice to sit out in a relaxing environment and do some garden shopping! Highly recommend.
