Brewers Fayre Castlewood in Bolsover

Greatnight went out with the family to there special event for wrestlemania massive thanks to both Neil and Wayne and a great photo opportunity to hold a replica title belt pulled out all the stops to please there customers

Spent two night in premier inn. Used brewers fayre for our meals on this trip and wow what can I say . Amazing food . The chef really can cook steak . We was served by Callum and Sam all day. Wow both amazing and Sam we didn’t know she was in training . Absolutely a natural talent and a true professional with humour and customer relations. Thank you sooo much

We hired out the soft play room for a party. Sarah and her team were brilliant. Communication before hand was great. Everything on the day went so smoothly thanks to Sarah. She went above and beyond to make it a lovely gathering. Thanks so much.

We hired the play area for a breakfast party. Some use of the soft play area. Breakfast boxes for all of the children filled with yogurt pastries fruit and juice. Dedicated space and staff to meet all of our needs. Sarah you were brilliant. Thank you for your service. Space was clean and tidy. Food was fresh and there was plenty for everyone. Excellent price. I highly recommend this as a party venue.

Always find this place very welcoming ,cosy and have great choice of food and drinks The staff are very friendly , Megan deserves a special mention as shes always on hand to discuss any offers or help with any problems .All in all a great place for families or friends

Me and the family are regulars at castlewood mainly because of the service. Megan and the team are always very helpful and ready to help. Megan goes out of her way to personally say hello and make sure we have everything we need for every visit. Can't speak highly enough of the custom service we recieve evenytime we visit. Well done Megan, keep up the good work.

Always have the best time with my family at castlewood, always greeted with a smile from Megan and the team nothing is to much trouble and the service throughout is commendable. Would highly recommend

My family and I went for Mother's Day, as always we had a great time, my Granddaughter loves the play area, the food was excellent and great value, exceptional service made our time there an extremely pleasant experience, Wayde,Meghan and the rest of the team are all fantastic, nothing is too much trouble for them, I cannot recommend the Castlewood at South Normanton enough, first class.

Lovely food accompanied with friendly staff. Very welcoming as usual. Enjoyed the fish and chips and the lasagne. Megan was very friendly and efficient xx

Arrived 15 minutes after the kitchen closed with 2 tired and hungry granddaughters and asked if there was any chance of some food. The manager and staff could not have been more helpful,opened the kitchen, cooked 4 meals and made it feel like it was no trouble. Very grateful!

Typical Brewers Fayre pub and food,but not a bad thing.Good choice of drinks at the bar,good extensive menu,and friendly and efficient staff.It can be a pain placing an order but that is the same with all these type of establishments.We had a slight wait for our food,but when it came it was very good.Prices I thought were reasonable.All in all a good experience.

We had a private party in the soft play area from 9-11 with some people choosing to pay for breakfast while there. Food was lovely as always. Can’t thank Sarah enough for looking after my son’s party, nothing was too much trouble for her. Would definitely book another party in the future.

Visiting with my 10 year old daughter. Had what I thought was a legitimate voucher sent from Brewers Fare via email, as they do only to be told it wasn't valid (in the small print) Ended up paying £45.00 for 2 x Burger and Chips and 2 x kiddies Ice Creams and a coke each. Portion sizes were like something from thr Kiddies me u, to the point whereby we were still hungry. I counted exactly 11 chips on my plate and a spoon full of coleslaw, not exactly £13.00 worth. Taste wise, not too bad, but processed! Lovely staff who seemed rushed off their feet but won't be visiting again anytime soon, major disappointment

We stumbled across this little gem about 2 years ago and now it’s become our favourite local place to eat , brill staff, lush food weather it be a carvery on a Sunday or food off the menu we are never disappointed !! And it’s also nice to see the same staff and not a high staff turn about like other pubs we’ve been in so management are obvs doing something right too :) more than likely be back Sunday xx

Stayed at the attached Premier Inn and had breakfast here in the morning. Everything was really nice and fresh and great variety of choices. The team were lovely and especially the tall slim gentleman who seated me, he was really nice and explained everything to me as I'd not been before. Overall great experience and would recommend.

Same as always, and probably my last review, Megan, Neil, Emma, Gemma - The whole team make this a great place to visit.

Lovely food accompanied with friendly staff. Very welcoming as usual. Enjoyed the smothered chicken and the lasagne.

My family and I went on Christmas Day, we all agreed it was excellent, from the moment we were greeted and shown to our table, to the time we left, it was an amazing experience, the staff were fantastic, our food was superb, the service...

On my recommendation, after a previous visit, I highlighted the quality of the smothered platter to my friends, so they all chose to have it. We were not disappointed. Everything was cooked beautifully and we all thought, although not a cheap meal, it was certainly...

Overcooked meals!!! Ordered garlic mushrooms as a starter - the ‘shell’ was so hard that you couldn’t cut them. Main courses were Gammon with eggs and chips and burger (no bun) and chips. The gammon had clearly been under a lamp keeping hot so it...

Called here on way home on a coach holiday. There were 40+ of us & the restaurant was so organised dealing with so many of us at 1 time. The food & the service was excellent. The staff were very friendly & helpful.

We booked a table for 6 no problem, large carpark, the staff were friendly and helpful, the place was clean with a good atmosphere, the food prices were fair and enjoyed by all, we would come again

Amazing. Quick & efficient service. 2 adults & 2 kids ( one child as food allergies but this was no problem they were quick to insure anything she had was correct and safe.)

I had the rump steak which was cooked by Matt in the kitchen and asked to speak to him to say that was the best steak I had in a long time! Thank you!

We had our daughter party and we want to say how fantastic Callum and Jen was today service 100%.
