I had the pleasure of ordering breakfast with my daughter at The Filling Station quite early on Bank Holiday Monday. I looked for somewhere on the way to Matlock from Derby that had a highly rated breakfast. It did not disappoint! Great, friendly welcome. Lovely coffee whilst we waited for our food which was cooked to order. We both ordered on the basis that our eyes were bigger than our bellies and couldn't finish. What we did manage was quality ingredients, cooked really well and served with a smile. We have already organised the next time that mum is dropping daughter off at work with a cheeky stop at The Filling Station. thanks for a lovely welcome...

The Belper 'Grumpy Grandads Breakfast Club' really enjoyed our first visit here. We all had the big full English breakfast which was cooked to perfection. Inclusive tea and coffee with unlimited refills make this meal a perfect choice. Lovely friendly staff and nice decor. We will be back!

Wow... what a find in Belper and I’ve lived in the town for 4 years! The owner is a lovely bloke and I ask for a veggie breakfast on the fact that I don’t like bacon and sausage but I like black pudding. He convinced me to try the sausage and bacon so went for the standard meat version. Firstly, it’s massive and was so tasty. It wasn’t greasy and every mouthful was really good. My wife had a crispy bacon cob which she really enjoyed. It does get really busy so make sure you get early to guarantee a seat. Credit to the staff here, passion and great customer service goes a long way.

The social media profile attracted my attention to this place to drop by before I headed to a wedding. The place is nicely decorated with no pretences and it was spotlessly clean. The waitress was warm and welcoming, which always sets a good tone. I ordered a large breakfast and swapped mushrooms for an additional sausage. My tea was served promptly and while I expected to only get a mug, I received a pot and mug so I got a good three mugs' worth out of it. The breakfast was very nicely cooked and tasted lovely - the bacon was especially juicy and the sausages & hash browns were light and very flavoursome. The chef was friendly and checked that I enjoyed my breakfast, which I certainly did. If you're in the area, I couldn't recommend this place enough. Ahead of two friends' big day, the food was definitely worthy of being called filling. Next time I'm in this part of Derbyshire, I'll definitely come back for breakfast or lunch.

Visited this morning, Food was perfectly cooked, the caramel iced latte was up there with one of the best I've had, the atmosphere was welcoming and the staff were friendly. The service in general was impeccable and all at a very reasonable price. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in the area.

Revisit after first trip 6 months ago. Lovely staff. Pleasant service. Quality food and good prices. Toast, smoked salmon, and scrambled egg and a pot of tea. The lunch menu looked good too. Highly recommended
