Small local pub with excellent food. Warm welcome and drinks at the table. The food was delicious and the portion size was huge. Well presented and generally amazing. Do not miss this pub. Great food
Good pint (their own) & friendly service. The room upon entry is more of a tap room for locals with a community feel & on the left is primarily used for eating. Plenty of seats outside at the front. They definitely know what they're doing here & we'll come back for food.
Very nice pub and the restaurant served excellent food and a good price. A nice place to eat, drink and relax after a good day hiking. The staff were friendly, efficient and very helpful.
Absolutely gorgeous time spent in your pub while we stayed up the road. I didn’t fancy anything on the menu just wanted a chip sandwich so the kind lady behind the bar sorted one with warm ciabatta bread and butter on side. The chips tasted homemade lovely and crispy really satisfied my craving. Overall great service friendly staff but when we went there wasn’t many people in so I can’t really comment about the atmosphere but saying that probably gets lively later (we went Saturday lunch
Everything about this pub was lovely!! The pizza was incredible and fresh, and the local beer was super tasty. We had a IPA and dark ale from the pub‘s own brewery!! The service was excellent, we had a chat with the owner about the history of the pub, and you can tell they put so much care into everything they do. I would recommend if you‘re in the area, and craving a cosy pint or a proper pub tea!
Credit where credit is due. Among the best meals we have had in a Derbyshire pub, indisputably the most imaginative menu and at a v reasonable price. With great beer and very friendly and helpful staff. Faultless stuff guys. Thank you.
Visit last night was very quiet with two other couples eating. Not a large menu but a good selection of pub favourites at a reasonable price. We went for a very tasty lambs liver, mustard mash and seasonal veg with gravy. Followed by sticky toffee pudding and homemade Bakewell tart with custard. They also brew their own beer on site and they allowed you to have a taster, settled on two pints of Bircher best. Best to book as during the summer both local pubs are well supported by locals and many tourists. Well recommended.
Good value, great portion sizes and nice food. Lovely pub
Was staying locally at the Barn Farm campsite, and luckily managed to book a table for Sunday, just a few days before we arrived. A lovely family run pub who made us feel welcome and served some incredible food. Even accommodating an over tired 6 year old who just wanted some mash potato. Tried a few pints of their own beer which is brewed on site along with their own blue cheese which we had in a dipping starter! Delicious! . Even got sent away with a fresh baked loaf of bread! A great pub with everything you want and more! Will definitely be returning!
What an amazing little gem in the heart of Derbyshire. The service was good and offers locally brewed beers and as a non beer lover I would say it is worth the try to see of you like it (ask var staff for a sample). I have attached some pictures of this beautiful setting. Book a table or get walk in service and has card pavement facilities. Family friendly, walker friendly and dog friendly. Perfect for a local walk and retreat to here on return. Add me on Instagram: diggerdazzler
