Spirits and wine selection in Derby

“We hadn't visited for a few year's, but I used to bring my grandmother regularly for lunch before she went in a nursing home. Booking there today after her funeral was the perfect farewell. We booked a table for 7 people, we had a mixture of the main menu and the festive menu. The food was delicious, cooked perfectly and excellent value for money. It was a lovely atmosphere and we had the loveliest of servers. Thank you so much, we will make sure we return more often”

“Lovley cost pub and friendly staff. Food was beautiful and didn’t take too long to come out. Would definitely come again. Would love to try the Sunday lunch next time Thankyou”

“We absolutely adored this little gem the room was lovely and the staff were so helpful and lovely The food was delicious and a fantastic menu and lovely breakfast too The only thing I could recommend they do is put a mirror in the bedroom area of the family room”

“The Boot is half walk to meet my mom, and we’ll 100% be back. Fabulous location just off the A38, and plenty of parking. The food was sublime and a wine list to generously accompany the dishes. A running theme with all my reviews is that I like a nice wine list and the Boot offers exactly that. The food was so fresh and full of flavour, beautifully presented. A real Gastro Pub that welcomes dogs which is important for us as a family of dog owners, who enjoy the finer things. Thank you to the wonderful Heidi who look after us, you made mom’s birthday experience thorough enjoyable. We’ll be back!”

“Our booking was for 20 people. The service was efficient and helpful, and everyone was served in good time. Two people ordered the Aubergine dish, but it wasn't to their taste, an exchange was offered, and no charge was made. It was handled very well. Much appreciated how they sorted out the bill for us to pay individually. Excellent!”

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

“Went for lunch after visiting the Helios display at Kedleston Hall. Staff were friendly, helpful and attentive. The food was varied, hot and well presented. The dishes we had were nice and spicy too. Beer was good and the overall atmosphere was welcoming.”

“Beautiful meal. Lovely starter and curry for the main course. Staff were pleasant and restaurant was nice inside.”

“Great bar and restaurant, really enjoyed our meal in beautiful olde world surroundings. Friendly staff too!”

“An absolutely faultless, Christmas's Day meal / experience! Often, I've been for Christmas Day meals, only to be left disappointed by the food, service, or friendliness of the staff. This far surpasses anything I've previously experienced! I know it's hard for staff to work on Christmas Day, but these couldn't have done more for us. The team were all extremely friendly, and welcoming. Our server (Ollie) couldn't have done more for us. He was always there for drinks orders, and even made time to chat, despite being very busy. The food was exceptional and very presented. The price, considering it was Christmas Day, was extremely reasonable too. Even the little touches, such as a Christmas card, added to a very pleasant meal. Thank you so much to The Otter, and their excellent team and service.”

“Excellent reopening of a local Kegworth pub. Hopefully the locals will get behind the new owners and support them through their bar and restaurant. Well done. Good to see positivity.”

“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!””

“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!”

“Great pub in the embers inns chain. Used to be my local a few years ago, dropped in today and still good. Real ale great and food lovely, good size beer garden to the side, with wooden shelters to sit inside if it rains, nice outside sitting area at front”

“Came across place this place whilst looking for a decent menu for gluten free. And honestly I was not disappointed. From the get go the staff couldn't have been more helpful. First the gluten free menu is one of the best I have seen in a long time, everything from burgers, steaks to chicken, there was starters and even desserts. Once I explained I was both gluten free and dairy free and ordered my food, my starter had some dairy on it the server came to speak to me and altered it to suit my dietary needs. Honestly this is the best place and I will definitely be back.”

“Ordered delivery via Uber, arrived in the earliest timeslot so great. One of the best Chinese meals I can remember having in a long time, Everything was well cooked, food was hot, perfectly seasoned and well marinated. Delicious! Would recommend and will be ordering again.”

“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!”
