So, we decided yesterday to try to push ourselves a little bit more with our cycling. I say we, but really I am the main limitation in terms of speed and distance, but a 44 mile round trip to Matlock Bath certainly seemed do-able.
Two hours, and more hills than expected later, we arrived at Flavours eager for some caffeine and food.
Their menu was very accommodating, with options for coeliacs, although as hubby noted his baguette didn't come with butter (chicken and bacon) so was a little dry. Suspect that due to their accommodating nature, one has to ask for what one actually wants rather than take options off that are generally assumed. I think this is actually a good approach as it is clear they are sensitive to allergies and with everything made fresh they can be sure to cater for everyone. I had a cheese and pickle sandwich which was very tasty if unadventurous,but surpassed by a chocolate mint tiffin.
The coffee was pretty standard, as it was produced using a one button push machine, but it wasn't bitter and served it's purpose.
This friendly place deserves extra marks for being comfy and cosy, and even allowing us to bring the bicycles inside as they weren't packed full and the entranceway near the high table was clear. Very kind and will definitely see me returning, but hopefully we can find a more scenic route next time!
