The best restaurants serving British food in Hope Valley High Peak East Midlands

A classic countryside pub with an excellent range of ales and great food… really friendly and welcoming staff plus got to know some brilliant locals in the pub whilst i was visiting the area. I will return soon!!

Booked a table for a family Christmas lunch on a mid December weekend, specified this as a note on the booking. On the day we were told that you could only have the Christmas menu if you had preordered. At no point when booking online or after had we been asked to preorder and the Christmas menu on the website had not stated preordering was necessary. I had also called pub to confirm booking and hadn't been notified then either. It put a real dampner on a lunch we were all excited for. Made worse by the fact that we were surrounded by other big tables being served from the Christmas menu and with crackers etc and ours was a simple roast. They did offer to add turkey as an alternative to the meat on any of the normal roasts after making a bit of a fuss but the rest of the menu was not avaliable. I love overseas and was looking forward to a traditional Christmas meal and dessert, so a very disappointing visit.

Lovely friendly staff, and welcoming for dogs. Been to this pub a few times of the last 30yrs, also stayed here. Very welcoming. However, on this occassion, with constructed criticism here-The meals on this particular day, at the high cost charged, with poor portions delivered. I ordered fish, chips and peas, and I'm sorry to say this, where was the homemade chips? as I got frozen deep fried, and I left them. There was just a tablespoon of mushy peas on the plate , fish was beautiful. Hubby had the steak pie and he gives it 7/10, as the pastry was hard and minimal gravy and dried out peas. I was going to speak to your member of staff, but, she had several waiting, and some leaving, and she avoided me. Wed, 28th Oct, lunch time. Hope to come here again, and I hope the food will be better next time. Thank you

Came for lunch with the family and massively enjoyed my veggie roast. Nice mushroom and pumpkin seed slice with well cooked veggies, a plate so full I couldn’t finish and tonnes of flavour. Yummy G&T and very attentive staff. Thank you!
