The best restaurants in High Peak East Midlands

The two staff were lovely and tried their best. However, our room was not very clean, breakfast was advertised but not available. A week before our visit no phone calls or emails or phone messages were ever answered. The place needs a manager and more staff

Went to Buxton for day trip fish and chips twice two cups of tea £24-00 chips were cold dripping in fat and scabby fish was also dripping in fat avoid this dirty place at all costs I used to work in a chip shop don't understand how they can serve this crap and get away with it

We loved our lunch here, and the service was excellent! It was a big contrast with another place we tried earlier, where they halted service for 10 minutes in order to "catch up" - how ridiculous! We were made to feel welcome at Stars, despite it being busy, and couldn't fault our delicious food, at a good price too 😋. They're missing a trick by not having Buxton pudding on the menu though - surely we're not the only people who like to sample local specialities when visiting a place for the first time?

It was ok. But for the price I was expecting more. Small portions, and just expensive for what we got. Fish was fairly fresh, and the chips wasn’t bad

Called in for a drink on Saturday lunchtime. Really good atmosphere & very friendly bar staff. We asked how long it would take to walk to the station for our train back to Sheffield & Kath insisted on giving us a lift . We now have a new local in the Hope Valley. Will be returning soon.

I and my husband went for dinner .Restaurant section was empty . When I order my drink sprite waitress asked me pint or half and I realised that is not in the bottle so I wanted to change bottle of diet coke. After that strangely she was questioning that why I wanted bottle not the other option . Anyway then we ordered 2 starters , 2 mains and 1 puding. As a starter we both ordered the soup and it was ok. And the main course I had the fish which is disappointing. It was too tough , just boiled fish not even seasoned . It comes with raw onion ,some black olives, 1 bigh dried tomato and 1 egg. And again chef didn’t even put a pinch of salt in it. I finished the fish because I was so hungry and I didn’t want to waste it. Never come back again .

A lovely place to have lunch before starting our walk along the Monsal trail. The food was so lovely and fresh, and Molly, our waitress was very attentive.

Website said Dogs allowed, Nope drive 20 mins thinking WiFi signal, coffee and somewhere the dog could go. Complete waste of a journey

I love The Star. The cask ales are an ever- changing selection and are well-kept by someone who obviously knows how to run a cellar. Tom the barman knows my preference for ale now and if there are brews on that I'm unfamiliar with will recommend the one he thinks will best fit my tastes. He's rarely been wrong. You won't get football screens or loud music, except in a Monday night which is home to an acoustic trad/ folk music session. This used to be in the back room but has acquired so many attendees over the last year that it's now in one end of the main bar. The music is a great mix of both songs and tunes, with a real buzz most Mondays and is well worth a visit just to listen, or to join in if you play or sing. Otherwise it's just a great traditional pub serving excellent beer and somewhere to have good conversations with family or friends.

We ordered a banquet for three and got enough food for 2 days. The service was quick enough and we found the food super tasty.

Phoned explaining wrong kebab sent was told they don’t do kebab ordered .Who would know you can only have what they send and not what is on the online menu,fries atrocious,never again

It seems this is a popular cafe with locals but I probably wouldn't go back. There were a lot of (young?) staff behind the till who seemed knowledgeable, but no-one at all in the customer area. As a result tables went uncleared for a long time, tables weren't wiped down at all and the floor was unchecked. I saw a customers dog come in and eat all the droppings from the previous child before the owner could stop him. Considering the high number of staff, service was also very slow as others have mentioned, even for simple or straightforward items; we saw several customers ask who were still waiting. Our lunch was fine when we got it and the food seemed okay, and to be fair it had no shortage of people coming in. What put me off most was that the whole customer area needed a really proper clean, not just tables but wall decor, seating, floors, front window areas. I realise not everyone sees this but for me this is an important first impression as well as necessary hygiene in a food establishment.

We are visiting the area, and are really pleased with the take away food this evening. Great portions, excellent food. Enjoyed it.

Please explain this to whoever was serving on the counter in Glossop yesterday lunch time. He asked me to pay extra for a bottle of water. when the egg sandwich I bought was on a shelf clearly labled as part of a sandwich deal "What is included in Greggs sandwich deal? Sandwich deal includes any selected cold sandwich and any cold drink or any regular hot drink. Speciality hot drink upgrade is from 50p extra and upgrade to a large hot drink is from 50p extra. Excludes soup"

We just came across this place when we were exploring Torrs Riverside park and Millennium walkway. Lovely ambience, Friendly vibe and Generous portion of Fabulous tasting food. Loved it and we will visit again soon when in the area.
