Bank House Hathersage in Derbyshire Dales

Awful service, bartender made a cutting remark after we politely asked if they were still serving. The wine was quite nice though. If you are a tourist, maybe give this one a miss and go to a local pub instead.

We hired a room at Bank House for a pre-wedding meet and greet party the night before the big day. The manager and staff were so attentive and helpful throughout. The food was absolutely fabulous and the venue was beautiful. It was the perfect pre-wedding event which was enjoyed by everybody. Thank you so much to Bank House for making this a special evening.

Impressive bar in the heart of Hathersage. Fantastic wine selection. Wife and I stuck to Peroni. Table service would have been nice. Seems the locals could get staff to bring drinks to them but not tourists. 😉

Great food well worth the visit but couldn't get to the bar as drinkers were sat there and drinks were a bit pricey

My boyfriend and I booked the Bank House on a Friday night. We sat upstairs where it was quite cosy and chilled. Probably, it's the only positive thing I can say about the place. We ordered a small plate each and a main to follow. To pair with the food we asked about a bottle of red. A few minutes later we were told that they didn't have that particular bottle which was fair enough so we ordered another bottle. The waitress was looking for it for 15 minutes, eventually, she grabbed the bottle that was literally behind her on the wine shelf and tried to open it. When we asked to see the label, the wine had absolutely nothing to do with what we ordered. Probably they didn't have the second one as well so the waitress just came around with a random bottle. Obviously, we skipped on that as we were waiting for a while and eventually didn't get what we were asking for. But the highlight of the evening was the main course. I ordered monkfish, my boyfriend - steak. I can't complain about my main as I ate it all, the only one thing I can say afterwards - peculiar and weird. Doesn't taste fish at all, and the mash doesn't combine with other ingredients. My boyfriend’s request on the steak’s stage of cooking was med-rare. Never happened. It was close to well done so he sent it back. 10 minutes later when I was sat with an empty plate he had his RARE steak so he didn't have that one either. When we asked about the bill, the manager brought it over and talked to us about our experience. Obviously, we didn't pay for a steak because my boyfriend had none of them. We also were given a £10 voucher each for the next visit that we are never going to use as it was too much of a disappointment. If you looking forward to a meal out, book somewhere else as going to Bank House can ruin expectations.

Nice food and service definitely will be back soon

Unfortunately I was really looking forward to this dinner I had booked over Easter but was really disappointed. Arrived on time for our booking but the table wasn’t ready yet, once seated waited 40minutes for drinks, wine I ordered wasn’t in stock, the wine the waitress recommended to us also turned out to not be in stock which was a shame. Third attempt at a wine and it tasted as if it had turned. Finally got drinks an hour after arriving. Food was very average unfortunately - got the Japanese share plate. What I can say is that the staff were all really lovely and friendly! Just a shame about the wait times and food quality. Would maybe stop by for a beer at the bar but wouldn’t book in to eat here again.

The place looks great and is celery well maintained and cleaned. However, there is no background music and feels a bit soulless.. food was very average for the price and time for meals to be served was very slow.. I was with my 19 year old son who was asked for ID which he did not have. I assured the manager I was his dad (I’m 50) .. He replied ‘ how do I know for sure your his dad’ and refused to serve him a drink.. Bizarre … some time someone sense helps

We ate here last night as a family to celebrate my birthday and we’re so happy we chose Bank House. It was outstanding. They happily swapped my son’s burger pattie for a vegetarian one (moving mountains and cooked to perfection), the chicken burger was loved by my daughter, and husband and I shared the ‘Shifudu board’ seafood platter. The amount of food was just right and everything cooked perfectly. Best meal we’ve all had in some time. We will definitely go back. Thank you Bank House. Note the menu has recently changed so check the website not the pictures of the menu on Google 😉

Friendly welcome. Great service. Wide choice of food - more unusual dishes. Highly recommend.

Visited Bank House Hathersage for lunch with 7 friends after a long hike. Despite not booking, the staff accommodated us in a private dining room, making it extra special. Service was attentive, food exceptional, and the ambiance perfect. Can't wait to return! Highly recommend.

amazing food, well cooked steak and burger. Very very very good.

We only had a drink on a Saturday evening. We found it a bit too up itself for our liking, but others may enjoy it. Didn't have food, so I can't comment on that.

A lovely venue. But the food is definitely overpriced for what you get. 10 of us eat here. The seafood sandwich was literally a deli filler on a white hot dog bread roll, no butter, not toasted quite a let down, we all ordered a wide variety of food and no one was impressed with anything. My T bone was overcooked and had a lot of chewy bits. However the vine tomatoes were really nice as were the chips. Definitely won’t be visiting again. Very disappointed.

We had two Sunday roast dinners, nut roast and pork loin, and one halloumi burger. The food was great, well presented and very tasty. Care had clearly been taken in preparing it. It was a busy Sunday afternoon but our table was in a corner and we were not rushed. Hard working staff were welcoming and attentive. Thank you for the complimentary drinks to mark our lovely daughter's birthday!

The atmosphere on a Saturday evening was superb, we highly recommend eating here and this was our first time but won't be the last. The service was fantastic from walking to through the door to leaving! We both enjoyed your delicious food (especially the fillet steak and dauphinoise chips). The evening was everything we hoped it would be! Thank you so much Bankhouse hathersage..

Lovely food and drink. Fantastic service. Dog friendly. What more could you want from a Restaurant & Bar? We ate inside but they also have a lovely outside seating area, and as it is February have a wood burning stove lit for both atmosphere and to thaw out those hardy enough to eat and drink outside. Highly Recommended

It was my Birthday and we passed by the Bank House and decided to sit outside with some warm drinks and a pastry. I ordered a hot chocolate, a cappuccino and a cake at the counter inside, and the chap who served me was very brusque and abrupt from the get-go, and it really felt as though I was putting him out. (He was tall, slim, half-caste, wearing some Vans skater shoes). I was offered no spoons or sugar or a tray to carry it outside. I had to ask the younger dark-haired guy who was extremely helpful and kept apologising and actually carried the drinks and plate outside with me. The guy who took my order really soured the experience and has stopped me going back to try the food which actually looked very good. Also, while the drinks were nice and flavourful, the cappuccino was lukewarm.

Sunday lunch was good. The pudding menu was disappointing so we didn't have anything.

Outstanding venue, food and service. Visited here on Saturday night, they have made a gorgeous venue, superb food, great service, thank you so much!

Fabulous place to eat and drink, all staff work hard and are very friendly. Good selection of food for all.

The food was quite good but overpriced even for a tourist area for the standard that we received. We went on a Monday lunchtime out of season so it was pretty quiet. Nice place and the food came out quickly but staff more interested in talking about their weekend than making it a nice experience for us. Again, wouldn't have minded if the bill at the end had reflected this. Overall, we thought it was overpriced and we were underwhelmed!

Cozy atmosphere, nice friendly and helpful staff, good lattes, good food.

Unfortunately not the experience myself and my friends hoped for. Food did really match tge menu, the restaurant was cold and slow service. As the sharer boards arrived they soon went cold and spoilt the experience. Real shame tbh as I was expecting higher standards overall

After a long day walking thought we’d drop by and have some food. Was told there was no tables available in the main building as they were fully booked. But after waiting around we managed to find a small table in their out door ‘tippie’ area. Menus available on the table with signs saying place your order back in the main bar. So back in again and patiently waited for service. Five minutes in I politely stopped a passing member of staff who then said they had two large bookings that day and were not servicing any more food. So left shattered, hungry and deeply disappointed. Won’t be going back there again 👎

We had a great breakfast in their ski themed Nordic gazebo which is outside the main building on the Hathersage high street. Lovely cosy atmosphere with central log burner and blankets at every table for those who need them. For us the service was a little slow, but we noticed other tables were a lot quicker. Well worth a visit.

Lovely food, great staff, strange customers of mainly self loving middle aged men who enjoy barging into you

Called in for lunch and it didn't disappoint. Only negative, we went in the tipi with our dog and there were bit of broken glass all over the floor. Spent a few minutes making sure the floor around our table was safe for our dog. Food was amazing fresh cook bread and it was good value too. Staff were friendly and really helpful. Will definitely be returning.

Nice place. Nice part of world. Nice breakfast but would have liked to see more traditional options alongside the other bits

On returning from the chip shop i was refused service at the bar on the grounds that: “My group is no longer welcome” After consultation, I believe the dispute with “My group” was regarding the complimentary mince pies left out on the bar, that attracted a discretionary surcharge to larger “groups”. I have been told by local folk that some customers have even received a charge for excess toilet roll usage, I can not confirm this as i left, and went to a pub that wasn’t staffed by 🔔🔔🔔 A charge when they started

Pre- booked, but had to change last minute, which was accommodated, so was a big plus, but the only plus. Very tasty, but luke warm, roast dinner. We were very hungry, so didn’t complain. Thetre was a choice of only 3 puddings, but they struggled to get the orders right and I ended up not having what I ordered, but couldn't wait any longer. Tea was served in lovely cast iron tea pots but was cold every time and tea couldn't infuse. Coffer was also luke warm.

Wouldn't go back dinner was fair would have given more stars iff it was actually hot, finally got the right desert after three attempts wished we hadn't bothered at £10 per person,tea was tepid.

Great food, lovely service and a nice quiet dining room where you can hear each other without piped music. Good options for gluten free and vegetarian aswell.

Très chouette endroit ! Le tipi chauffé par un poêle est a essayer (nous n'avons pas pu, tout était plein). Nous avons goûté les burgers, très bons, et avons apprécié la bière locale. Les serveurs étaient aimables malgré une grosse charge de travail. Service rapide. Bonne adresse.

We stopped for breakfast before heading out on a walk around the Hope Valley. Really beautiful place, very friendly welcome. We both had the full Derbyshire breakfast and it was delicious - very filling too!

Lovely evening spent in the new tipi. Would definitely return. We had a few picky bits as a snack and few alcoholic beverages. It was very enjoyable.

Lovely place, food was beautiful and well presented, staff very attentive and polite. Thank you jasmine & Violet

Our Sunday Roast roundup took us to Hathersage this weekend. We were hoping that the 1 hour and 10 minutes drive from where we live to the Aprés Bar at Bank House Hathersage was worth it and it most definitely was. The weather was miserable outside but what a warm welcome in the Tipi Bar with roaring fires and blankets at hand made it feel nice and cosy. The attention to detail decorating the tipi tansported me to a snowy winter wonderland. With an extensive drinks menu along with many different hot chocolate options. I opted to try a Rioja Blanco which was delicious. Food wise we ordered the Sunday Roast Sharing platter which came piled up with 3 different meats, roasted carrots, parsnips and potatoes, creamy cabbage and red cabbage, Yorkshire puddings, cauliflower cheese and plenty of gravy. Plates were we warm to ensure that your food mdidn't go cold quickly. They only offer 3 desserts but actually that made the choice easy for John who went for the Baked Cookie Dough with ice cream and biscoff and it was gorgeous. If your looking for somewhere to get you in the mood for the upcoming festive season don't hang about a make a reservation here. They do get extremely busy so booking is advisable.

Great idea of apres ski in the outside teepee. Sunday sharing platter was plentiful and tasty, three meats and all the veg we needed. Even though full I still managed a pudding of baked cookie dough with biscoff bits and ice cream. Massive selection of drinks I was driving so a nonalcoholic beer for me. Recommend booking as it got busy.

I've been back here a few times . Sat out in the Tipi this time . Was so so nice and festive . Warm and cosy. I had soup and the pulled pork sandwich . Both fantastic . Make sure u pre book if you want to be outside.

Have really enjoy it in the past but this time. 11,11,23 me and a family member standing at the bar for a long time been ignored. To the point where one man over our shoulder shouted to bar lady was it you that severed me and my wife coffee an ale last time same again the severed him straight away. Genuinely don’t like moaning at bars and pubs because I know hard times and this place normally good. But to end it looked at us when said who’s next a signalled it was us but then went other side of bar. But did let them know that the toilet was flooding as was blocked. Hope next time is as good as other times wouldn’t normally moan at a good place but felt was rude even if not intentional.

Absolutely love it here. One of our absolute favourite places to eat and drink. Especially in the winter with their stunning Apres Bar.

Lovely food and fab atmosphere (love this place and the tipi tent is now here for Christmas). Thanks to Pheobe - great service

Lovely experience again thanks to Izzy who was so prompt and polite with her service. We’ll definitely be back soon!

Amazing place. Beautiful inside decor. Brilliant hot chocolate and lovely, friendly staff. We’re definitely coming back here. Great place to visit after a walk. 😁

Stopped off for a breakfast on our way to castleton, great staff, food was amazing and the coffee was great!

Coffee and cake plus dog friendly

Tall blonde waiter wearing an apron made us feel severely uncomfortable by rolling his eyes at us when we stated were unsure on what to eat, decided to leave even though we were hungry and hadn’t even finished our drinks. Rest of the staff were lovely :))

We did call in for dinner, a party of 5, we were shown to a high table in a corner of the resturant with very high stools that were not very comfortable, we viewed the menu and sat there for over ten minutes and totally ignored, at this point we deciced it wasnt for us and left

Superb food. Fantastic service and a great selection of wines. There are some really good pubs in the Peak but the food here is definitely a cut above.

Had a Sunday roast here, booked in advance. We tried the beef and pork, both excellent but the beef definitely takes the prize. Yorkshire pudding and roasted veggies were also great. All in all, well worth the cost. We also had the apple dessert, a unique but tasty dish. Service was overall very good.

Loved thsi palce - went on Saturday afternoon after a walk - incredible service from Jaz - friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. Food was excellent I had the Korena chicked wrap which was great although could've had a bit more sauce. The halloumi fries with Chilli jam were incredible. Standard fries were deliciopus but the star was the Cauliflower risotto which was absoloutely sensational! All boxes well ticked, couldn't have asked for more.

This is by far the best place for a drink and some food in Hathersage - excellent fillet steak last Saturday night - absolutely delicious! Great friendly service too.

Excellent location, good food and drink selection. Love the outdoor log burner was great for drying out in front of after a short shower

Had a Sunday Roast (pork) and it was top notch. Pork was good (though my partner had the beef and it was probably even better), cauliflower cheese was super tasty, veg was all on point, and the large Yorkshire on top was the highlight. Sat in the upstairs and it was a lovely atmosphere and a great space. Would come back here again if I'm stopping in Hathersage again!

Food is always excellent!!!!! Staff and service shocking every single time I have been!

Fine dining and fantastic service. Great vegetarian choice.

Lovely food, great service and a really good atmosphere. We had a great time. Thanks Rachel & Henry

Delicious food and amazing service!

Lovely restaurant area upstairs - fine attention to detail from VIOLET and HENRY, who looked after us very well. Main courses fine and of respectable portion size, with rhubarb and custard dessert being something of a very special surprise. Wine at good prices for the quality. All in all - a very good experience

Loved the visit. The staff couldn’t have been any more helpful. Superb food and service Will be returning to sample their cocktails

Great service and delicious food. Would definitely come back next time we're in the area. Thank you Rufus and Steph for your attentive and friendly service.

Great wine selection and amazing food!

We’re visiting from the USA and this place was AMAZING. Staff were so friendly and competent, food was great, outside tables by the fire CHEF’S KISS. Beautiful lighting and flowers and wood smoke.

This was our third visit to The Bank and we suggested to our friends to book somewhere different as our previous visits had been ok but underwhelming for the price. I am soooo glad we didn’t go elsewhere. The meal was delicious and well worth paying for. I had courgette and feta skewers, sea bass pasta and a very special coconut pana cotta and every mouthful was delicious. Sensible portion sizes, beautifully cooked and presented - crispy skin on the sea bass, succulent prawns. It was really tasty and fresh. With some lovely extra touches. Thanks to the chef. The service was really good too. Thank you!!

First drinking hole that we stumbled across after our Stanage Edge circular walk. Thought it was a normal pub but once inside surprised to see a very smart posh interior and lots of people sitting down for a meal. My partner decided to go for...

We had a lovely meal yesterday made even better by George. We had the sharing burger platter following his recommendation, it was delicious.

Came for a few drinks with my dad last week in the terrace, really nice spot and the lovely waitress recommended the new raspberry cider on draught. Both of us really enjoyed it and will be back again thanks

Excellent food on a sunny Sunday afternoon - good quality ingredients well cooked and presented and served well. What more do you want?

We were not impressed with the food. Our starter of padron peppers were under cooked and covered with far too much lemon juice. One main dish had cold chips and the sea bass was just a slither of fish on a huge bowl of thick...

This is my favourite place to dine. The menu is always good, no matter when we come and the staff are excellent. Particularly Tom who seems to look after us every time we visit, and this time Erin too.
