China Chef in North East Derbyshire

Friendly, Cosey, the food is beer only and 2 drinks under £10. dont accept dogs tho.

It's small and cosy. Very local orientated. It's not what it was, High days and holidays if theyre lucky, they've left the building.....

Lovely traditional pub...excellent summer music programme...

After enjoying a lovely walk, we stopped at this pub/restaurant for lunch. We had not booked and had to sit outside as we had the dog with us, which we expected. However, we were clearly not the clientele preferred at this establishment. We were informed there could be a wait for the food, but we were prepared to wait. Actually, we didn’t have to wait very long at all and we joked that we were served quickly so we would leave quickly. When I went inside to pay the bill, the person I assume was the proprietor, made comment that ‘they’ thought they were going to have to ‘chase us across the car park’. I presume this because it was assumed we would leave without paying. How rude to assume such a thing. They knew nothing about us. I was so shocked and so insulted he had actually verbalised his thoughts I made a joke about being unable to run. We had been judged on our appearance. Just because we were not dressed like the other customers, don’t assume we are not just as worthy or affluent. I didn’t leave a tip but if I had, it would be ‘Don’t judge a book by its cover’. There are other restaurants in the local area far more amenable, accommodating and less judgemental. Otherwise, the food was reasonable.

Ordered from here on recommendation whilst staying in the area for a few days, Got to say it was one of the nicest Indian's I have ever tasted, polite and speedy delivery and easy app to use . Would 100% recommend.
