Home of the famous David Mellor cutlery. We design, manufacture and retail high-quality tableware and kitchenware. The Design Museum exhibits the full collection of David Mellor's work from examples of handmade silver to the street furniture and traffic lights that we stop at every day. The Country Shop is the perfect place to choose your special presents. It stocks the full range of cutlery and a collection of the finest British crafts.
Would have loved to have done the factory tour but it wasn't on when we went. But there's still an interesting display and explanations of street furniture outside, and cutlery exhibits in the cafe. Food was incredible - the broccoli and stilton soup was to die for. Quite pricey and the shop was SO expensive - but everything is wrapped so intricately in paper by the staff it was a pleasure to watch. I will say it's hard to get a seat in the cafe and we ended up sitting with strangers. Would definitely like to go back for the tour and more food!
Very cool space. Really great food in the cafe!
Have always wanted to visit David Mellor Hathersage. Got there yesterday and did not disappoint - great site, great buildings, wonderful shop and cafe and of course the exhibition and story of this remarkable British designer and his work. Very engaged, informed and welcoming staff and looked after so well by Thomas and by Claire who had pre-organised our nephew's wedding present and made it all so easy. The way this former town gasworks has been transformed into a design factory and visitor attraction within what is now a mature landscape setting has a zen-like atmosphere of design, making, and 'being'. I am a committed discipline of Mellor's belief that good design should be part of the everyday. Just a great day and one to remember.
really good visit to David or design museum and splendid lunch at the cafe with an excellent small menu and friendly helpful staff.
If you've got an interest in modernist homeware and industrial design, superb products for your kitchen or a cracking lunch, this is the place for you. Well worth the trip. Love the shop, cafe and indoor and outdoor museum space. Free museum area access and parking
