The 30 Best Grill pub in Derby

“Staff Brilliant, location easy to find, fantastic service and excellent customer service from a friendly welcoming team. Toilets are what feels like in another building but up a few stairs! Unfortunately they can’t make a cosmopolitan cocktail….. only what’s on the menu…. Enjoy”

“First visit on Sunday with the family, friendly service and nice atmosphere. Food was on par with mixed grill we normally have In Birmingham. Will visit again soon !”

“Great pub in the city center. Got both indoor and outdoor seating. Good variety of beer available and they also do a meal service other than just pub food. Drinks can be walk-in but if you are going for food, a reservation is recommended. Staff is friendly and fast which is always good to see. Ideal if you are looking for a pub without leaving the city center.”

“Absolutely fantastic place service and staff. Can’t fault the food the drinks the politeness and customer service… First class must visit great price as well.. Thank you…”

“The team are a dedicated caring slightly crazy a lot of people, and that just makes the whole visit a bit more special and the food is always typically excellent Gabrielle Great server and the chef Karl made a great meal”

“Has a great time watching the football with the missus in our private booth. No extra charge, staff were friendly and accomadating, the drinks fair price and really enjoyed our food. Which we asked to split as we wete sharing, not a problem our food came in two bowls and was well.presented, well worth going in if ever in derby, we will certainly pop in again.”

“Visited Chennai Dosa on London Road, Derby and had a fantastic experience. The dosa was crispy and full of flavour, the chutneys and sambar were memorable, and the service was friendly and attentive. A great spot for South Indian cuisine — highly recommended!””

“I've been put off from ordering due to negative reviews for some time but tonight thought I'd just give it a go So I'm specifically looking for freshly grilled chicken and lamb on the skewer over a flame grill. Something I used to get at TJs in Leicester many moons ago. The key elements for me is never old meat sitting in a bain Marie and the option for grilled onions and peppers. So here's what you get. The most succulent, delicious and perfectly barbecued chicken and lamb straight off the skewer. Perfectly marinated and cooked fresh. The option of grilled peppers and onions and absolutely incredibly delicious barbecued mushrooms for just only £2 extra. The naan bread was soft and delicious and perfectly crisp on the outside. Generous portion of salad and delicious. Slightly crispy but perfectly pickled peppers. Food arrived. Piping hot and can only wait at 10 out of 10. This is by far my new favourite kebab place in Derby. We will be ordering again!”

“Was seated very quickly on a Friday afternoon, the whole atmosphere was fun and lively. Great selection of food and drinks, some amazing looking cocktails! Staff were very friendly, I especially appreciated our server Stevie for being so kind, fun and helpful! The good was great, really loved it and will be returning!”

“First time I tried these, I had the peri peri mix grill... Not even joking this is the BEST!! takeaway I've ever had I will def be ordering again. My new local A***** Delivery times and driver were bang on to!”

“Took my good lady there for our wedding anniversary. The staff were very welcoming and attentive throughout the meal. The food was really well presented and full of taste. My wife had a cut of steak an commented that it was among the best she'd ever had. The grill is in a nice area of the hotel and was just perfect to celebrate our anniversary. We will definitely go again. Well done!”

“Amazing restaurant with truly delicious Polish food! The Zrazy were done perfectly and tasted just like home. What really stood out was the hospitality, the owner gave us the warmest welcome we’ve ever received in the UK. Can’t wait to come back!”

“Brilliant wings and burger, defo give that a try!”

“Excellent pub, great for family gatherings, weddings, and funeral wakes! The food is delicious, and they even put on some vegan options for me! The front door folds back to allow access for wheelchair users and various accessible toy go to the left of the bar”

“Visited on a Saturday afternoon. A traditional pub serving Indian and British food. Was quite busy but had a good atmosphere about, with sky sports on the TVs and a pool table. Menu has a small but decent selection of food which was on our table in about 10 min. Had a regular mixed grill with salt and pepper chips, dipping sauce and naan bread. Portion size is unbelievable and is plenty to fill empty tums, so make sure you're hungry. The pub is clean with a decent selection of ales and lagers located just outside the city centre. Decent price for what we ordered. We didn't need to book a table in advance but may need to on a Sunday afternoon. Overall highly recommended.”

“Wanted a dirty burger, this was the best option after some research as a tourist. Walked in, ordered on the screens, sat down and food was with me in less than 10 minutes. Friendly staff, clean restaurant with plenty of seating. 5* burger. Everything in the photo cost £21. Keep up the good work!”

“Nice greeting on arrival. Meals ordered in nice time but served quickly. Both found them very hot and full of flavour. Worth a visit”

“Lovely service, very friendly, accommodated food preference and walk-in. Great atmosphere - highly recommend.”

“Been a few times, great service, good hookahs. Probably the best in Derby. Nice prices and interior of the place. Great choice of tobacco flavours, would add a choice of tobacco itself and it was super.”

“Went in for a couple of drinks. Had a really nice time. Very friendly staff and lucky enough to sample the new menu which I will definitely be back to try more.”

“Always an excellent night at the new Inn. Fantastic owners who always make us feel welcome. Treats everyone fairly and firmly. I witnessed the abuse she received from a young guy last night and in all honestly, I wouldn’t have been as calm as her. If that was my son, I would have been so embarrassed. To talk to a female they way they did and to threaten violence. Disgusting behaviour, they wouldn’t have spoken to a male like that. Bully behaviour. On the good side, it’s an all round great pub! And the quizzes are always a good crack too”

“Went for a meal. Had lovely fish and chips, big special kebab and a steak meal. All cook to perfection. Will return. Staff all very polite. Good clean pub. A little bit tired.”

“Great place for a laugh, game of darts, pool and the quiz night on a Tuesday is a good time. Also great to go back the next day when you need to be fed and they will look after you and your sore head. Kids are welcome and the atmosphere is child friendly and the outside seating is denominator on a hot day it’s great vibes.”

“Good atmosphere, great tasting food”

“Went for a family meal for 5 adults. The service was excellent, quick and very friendly. The food was cooked to to perfection by the chef Camren, very good portions, cooked to all our likings in a wonderful atmosphere, all I would ask for is a bigger plate for the mixed grill.”

“I love this pub and the history behind it. This pub, Derby oldest pub, has remained remarkably original, with 16th century beams, heavy stone flooring, wood panelling and etched leaded windows. This was an old coaching inn, it is said to have been a stopping-off point for highwaymen including Dick Turpin. Several ghosts reputedly haunt the pub, which is a regular calling place for ‘Ghost Walks’ organised by local celebrity Richard Felix, who stars in the TV series ‘Most Haunted’. The stories of the history of the pub are made real by the ghosts that haunt the pub. From the boy that sits on the stairs, the Grey Lady that haunts the steak bar that the landlord himself, Jim Harris has witnessed; or it’s the flying Scotsman that runs up and down the corridor that breaks up the two buildings of the pub. Finally there’s the scariest of them all, the girl that lives in the cellar. A doctor who lived on site would dissect humans who have passed away in order to gain insight into the human body. One cold evening in the middle of the night a presumed dead girl opened her eyes and came back to life as the doctor was practicing his dissection skills. Every now and then the horrified screams of the girl can be heard in the dead of night.”

“Good for a quick pint after work, friendly staff and not too many locals crowding the bar so you can't order. I haven't eaten here we always seem to miss the kitchen hours. Bonus points for it being lovely and warm inside the pub on a cold wet day”

“Not been to this pub since lockdown, forgotten how good the food was. Good quality food but at a reasonable price. I had the roast turkey Sunday dinner and it was amazing, love the red cabbage. Had sticky toffee pudding for afters. Large modern clean pub with outdoor area. Electric car charging point in car park. Welcoming staff would highly recommend it”

“Myself, my other half and our youngest visited The Stenson Fields for a family meal and were extremely happy with the food, the service and the atmosphere. Everywhere was clean and tidy, including the Toilets. We arrived just before a football match and started in the Bar where we enjoyed a round of drinks, a game of darts and a game of pool. We found it to be a very friendly atmosphere and were pleasantly surprised how engaging the other patrons were, even offering tips on our lacklustre pool skills! We moved through to the Lounge to sit and eat, and every aspect of the meal was fantastic! The Bar staff were helpful and attentive to our needs, taking our food order with no fuss. They were even kind enough to allow modifications to our meals with no drama. The food arrived promptly, was perfectly cooked and was delicious. I had the double Beef Old Faithful with fries & onion rings, my other half had the Gyros Flatbread with Tandoori Chicken and our youngest had a 5oz Rump Steak with waffle fries & onion rings, polished off with a Lemon Meringue Sundae. The meal was topped off with a visit from the Chef who came out to ensure all was expected with the food, and we were happy to thank him for our fantastic meals, which were cooked to perfection and were also very reasonably priced. All in all we can thoroughly recommend The Stenson Fields for a fantastic Family meal!”
