Colosseo Italian Bar and Restaurant in High Peak

What I say a fantastic fillet steak medium rare and meat balls and a pint 🍺 Madri or 2 😂 Best steak ever had 10/10 customer service staff,😃😄

Beautiful Italian food and exceptional service.

A bit weird an Italian restaurant run by Albanian's. I was expecting Italian people! The food was amazing though and I will be back again for sure.

Top food and top staff loved the place definitely would recommend it 6star all day long

Good place to be at. Food was amazing. Loved the hospitality of waitress. Mario has been very welcoming.

Service was very prompt, and the food was delicious! I was tempted in by a review stating it was the best pizza outside of Italy. I'm not sure I would go that far, but it was tasty none the less. Only very slight dissapointment were the cocktails I had. Not the best, but to be fair, perhaps I selected the wrong cocktails for me. I regret not having the after eight cocktail....Next time! Vibe was really nice and buzzing. Would definitely recommend and go again.

A beautiful restaurant with amazing food. Their steak is fantastic. The staff are really polite and friendly and make you feel really welcome. Highly recommended!

Delicious food and staff were very attentive. Recommend trying the tiramisu - very tasty.

Excellent friendly service. Lovely environment. Well worth a visit.

True italian place with lively food and good prices. Really nice food, every time. Great!

It is a great restaurant with plenty of ambience. The food was delicious and plentiful. House wine was nice, no complaints! Service was very good and waiters friendly. A super restaurant that should be well supported by locals. 5🌟's

Lovely friendly restaurant, very good service and lovely food

Great service, and well cooked flavoursome food. Portions generous. Thank you!

Firstly, I did choose to not speak out even when we were asked how things were because I didn’t want to ruin our evening. There was no point in contacting them after as there was nothing to be gained by anyone. I went here after reading fantastic reviews. It’s a beautiful place but I felt that the food was a let down. Squid starter was undercooked, pâté was just like it had been bought from Aldi and presented poorly with packet butter. Beef stroganoff tasted like it had been made with gravy granules with cream added and the rice was stodgy risotto rice. Only one risotto rice main looked nice whilst the others were very bland and lastly, the pasta was basic shop bought. The prices are worthy of freshly made pasta and I expected far better for what we paid. Sadly we won’t be returning.

Beautiful food and fabulous service thank you

Amazing Italian restaurant, every dish was wonderful and so delicious. And the desserts were excellent

Our new Favourite Italian!!! Great staff, great food, lovely venue and Hayfield is a lovely little town. Worth a drive out. Update, a bit of a wobble, we went again and not the best. Mussles were gritty which could have been avoided but worse the pasta was hard either over or undercooked. Hopefully 3rd time is a charm!

Food really tasty and stuff very kind :)

We met friends (who were late) on a busy bank holiday weekend. I loved the hearty genuinely Italian, fairly priced food and the responsive efficient service. The massive let-down (hence 1 star atmosphere) was the thumping music over our table; ok for a nightclub/bar but not for people wanting a nice evening of conversation and catch-up. (They may want to think about what their sound system is for and where the loudspeakers are located)

An absolute must for anyone visiting Hayfield!

This is our fourth visit and again did not disappoint. Staff warm, friendly and welcoming. Atmosphere lovely, locals very happy to chat and friendly and as for the food cannot fault it.

Never fails absolutely fantastic food and service, we have been coming here for a long time we all love the food, atmosphere and great service from vulnet and his team. Visited this evening with some of the family and again all empty plates, from prawns to start to chicken, pasta and steaks and then dessert thank you for looking after us.

We both came down from London to visit Peak district. We found this restaurant at the end of our hikes. Also came the next day after Kinder Scout. We were seated quickly and had great service from the servers. Thoughtful to make sure we were updated as one of our dishes were taking a while. I didn't notice as the overall atmosphere was warm and cozy especially coming in from the rain. Amazing food and drinks. I had the calamari fritti and pollo involtini. On the second night I had the rib eye al esrilla. My friend wanted a dish but without the meat and they managed to cater towards that which was really nice of them to do. Thank you! Both of us were very happy with our meals. Also the staff were friendly and welcoming especially Marius the bartender! Thank you for the Limocello 😉

What can I say. We were recommended to visit this place and arrived with high expectations. I’t did not disappoint. The staff were friendly, the atmosphere was great and the food was amazing. The prawns were the biggest I’ve seen. Colosseo has a really good seafood supplier. We were a party of seven and all the dishes were so nice. A lot of food envy going on. 💯 recommend

Very good alternative to Casa D’Italia on the outskirts of Glossop which unfortunately shut about twelve months but apparently shares the same owner. Takes a little bit of finding, even in a place as small as Hayfield and the car park only holds about five vehicles so a short walk from on street parking may be necessary. Absolutely worth a visit though. Excellent food, very good service and a comfortable, friendly restaurant offering very good value. Now we’ve found it we’ll definitely be back.

We found a buzzing atmosphere and great food at Colosseo. The menu is varied and covers plenty of options for meat/fish dishes, pasta, risotto, pizza, spoilt for choice! Prices weren't cheap but were all reasonable, including the house wine which was also really good. The restaurant also has a lively cocktail scene which gave a great feel to the place. 10/10 definitely recommend and hope to be back to try more dishes!

Me and my partner got a table last minute, in which we were so grateful as it seemed to be on arrival the place to be in Hayfield. We'd only seen it when driving through the village. The food was absolutely amazing!! The waitresses were also so great!! The only thing that took a star off them was, I don't know if he was the owner. Italian guy. Being rude to his staff. He seemed too controlling. The girls were obviously more than capable of doing their jobs. They looked unhappy. We noticed him taking meals off the waitresses to deliver to the tables himself. Assuming to get the credit himself. There was an incidence when a waitress did manage to make it to a table with food to get shouted at "do they want cheese?!!" He didn't give her the chance to ask before shouting this. Funny as when he delivered my meal he neglected to ask if I wanted pepper or parmasan!!! I had to ask for it!!!!

Fantastic food and service , very attentive staff ,with great knowledge.

Fabulous meal that was beautifully presented and the evening was a real occasion.

Great food at a fair price, will definitely be going again.

Great food and service in a charming setting.

As I drive, I asked about alcohol free beer - got a curt no, my only options were coke, lemonade or lime and soda. Food was lovely, but not having vegetables with a meal seemed odd.

Went here for large family wedding celebration meal. We were upstairs great atmosphere and every single person was happy with their food said it was delicious. Service was excellent would definitely recommend.

Last minute booking for Six excellent service food to die for beautiful atmosphere thank you

Exquisite food, vibe and standards… probably come 3/4 times a year and never faulted it once!! Will be back again soon!!

1st time I've been and would definitely go back. Food was amazing and service 2nd to none.

1st time we tried here. Food portions are really good and great selection of drinks. Unfortunately I was too full to try dessert but will definitely try again

Always a great night, food was excellent.

Fitted us in without a reservation on a Saturday night, so lucky! It was really nice to dine here, food and service was absolutely A1! Can definitely recommend a visit 👌

Lovely atmosphere, really attentive staff sat down took our drinks order straight away which I love - pizza was great!

Gorgeous food and really lovely service and atmosphere - thank you :)

Delicious food, reasonably priced and attentive staff. Definitely recommend!

This restaurant was great. Interesting varied menu including fantastic sardines will be going back and telling friends and relatives.......Italian cuisine at its best!

Delicious conventional Italian food, quality service, a very nice building itself

WOW! first time at this amazing place and can't recommend it enough! Blown away! The food the ambiance the location the place the choice the staff all wow factor! We will be back again very very soon! Thankyou Colosseo! ❤

Wonderful service a d excellent food

We had a fabulous night here celebrating my son's 40th birthday. Everyone said their food was amazing. Mine was beautiful and adapted to veggie. The staff were amazing and nothing was too much trouble. We have been before a few times. The rest of the family have said they will definitely be going again.

Went late on a Sunday with my partner. Staff were really polite and efficient. Pasta dishes might have been the best I've ever had. Prawns super fresh. Wine was great. Prices not too bad considering the location.

Absolutely great service, got seated instantly despite arriving 20 mins early, served us drinks nice and quickly, they had to ask us to swap to the table next to us which was absolutely fine and they moved everything over for us! Waiter even pulled out the chair for me to sit in and they were all absolutely incredible! Really cute little Italian atmosphere and food was delicious! Because we moved tables they also gave us a free shot. The prices are very good and reasonable for what you get also!

Excellent service prepared with exceptional food. The lighting is vibrant and warm with good drinks and excellent music.

One of the best pizza I have eaten! Not expensive and good quality, tasty and freshly made, especially when we are talking about 14 pizza's at once to be made! Recommended with all my heart!

We went to Colosseo last night as a special evening before our baby comes along on Friday! We have been before so knew the food would be spot on! And it didn't let us down! The food is so fresh and delicious. We had the ribs to share for a starter as well as some garlic bread. The ribs were in such a flavourful sauce, I would highly recommend these as a starter. For mains I had the homemade meatballs and my partner had the calzone with Bolognese sauce, both were gorgeous! The staff on arrival were really friendly as always . However the music was so loud we couldn't really hear each other talk. The service was good, we didn't wait ages for food , however we did have to wait a while for drinks and to get attention from waiters to order more drinks even though our empty glasses had been there for a while, even when they brought food to the table. I ordered water at the beginning and had to ask 3 times before we actually received it. However it didn't dampen our evening and we still had a nice time . :)

Superb Italian food. Highly recommend

Lovely food 😋. Lovely cocktails. ❤️ attentive service

A hidden gem, amazing Italian food - one of the best pizzas I've ever had, fantastic service and a great atmosphere. It's so rare to eat in a restaurant that just gets it right!! We will be back on our next visit to the Peaks. Thank you so much

The food is easily the best Italian we've had outside of Rome. Attentive and respectful service, quality cocktails and wine. It was busy, we didn't have a booking but they had a table ready for us within 10 mins. Nice balance of relaxed yet classy. Even our teenager enjoyed it. Highly recommended.

Great Italian we discovered by chance whilst staying at the the caravan and camping club site. 15m walk along the river. Great food, service and value. Recommended!

Lovely Italian restaurant. Stopping in Hayfield for 2 nights. Going back again tonight. Top food and Top people. Great menu choices.

Our daughter moved to Hayfield last week and we went to visit her at the weekend. We visited Colosseo on Saturday evening and it was superb. Great food and service at reasonable prices. The atmosphere was buzzing and i would definitely recommend booking in advance as it was absolutely heaving. The staff never stopped running around making sure everyone was being looked after. Will certainly be visiting again so well done to the owners and staff.

It's a great Italian restaurant in the Peak District. Booking a table is recommended, especially during the busy evenings. Food is excellent, also good wine choices and of course Italian beer. Highly recommended as it's location is very convenient.

Fabulous place. Great food. Nice waiters. Fab cocktails. Would recommend.

Beautiful food, amazing people and an amazing place!

In Hayfield for the weekend. Called in for a table off chance. Accommodated us on a busy night. Thank you. Food was nothing less than superb. Staff were friendly and helpful. Great value. If we are in the area again we will visit, without doubt. Thank you for a lovely evening. Doug n Clare.

Impressive architecture design. Lovely food. Good quality services.

Amazing food and staffs are super friendly. Highly recommend 🫶

Wonderful venue and food. Great service from Baci and Vanesa.

Very lovely meal. Staff very attentive, nice restaurant with a friendly atmosphere.

Excellent food! Great atmosphere & service.

Brilliant evening on Saturday. Thank you so much for being so accommodating to the significant reduction in our group size, you were all lovely. Great food, drink and service ! The restaurant was so busy (in a good way) and you were all working tirelessly all evening. See you soon!

The staff, food, service and friendliness is fab , love it x

I have had a lot of Italian food & this place did not match. Food was also extremely expensive. Service was good but was let down at the end when other tables got lemonchello shots with there bill and we didn't!!

Ordered take away pizza and salad, both were fantastic. I am from New York, and am partial to pizza at home, so this was a really nice surprise!

Very nice food and friendly staff.

Ate there last night with my wife. We had cheesy garlic bread , probably yhe best i had for a long time, good pizza dough and smooth garlic flavour, wasnt too oily as i normaly find, we also had the calamari fritti. It was refreshibg to see the whole squid, it was fried with just flower, salt and pepper, a nice change from the usual overcooked squid rings you get in other restaurants. This dish was nice and soft and full of flavour . We followed with the lamb shank and pepper sauce chicken, the lamb shank was cooked to perfection, it was coming appart from the bone but still had all the flavour, the sauce was a bit too acicdic for my taste but still nice and it came with a nice coarse mash potatoe wich i really enjoyed. The chicken in pepper sauce was to die for. Staff were very attentive and friendly, they definately put the cherry on the top of what was a really enjoyable evening. Thanks guys

Dropped by for a pizza after day walking. Waited 45 minutes, and was really disappointed, incredibly salty and we ended up throwing half of it away.

Always a great place to eat with really friendly staff and tasty food

First time coming here but definitely wont be the last. Beautiful interior, great service, amazing food

Beautiful location, superb food and excellent service. What more could you ask for ? Highly recommended

Delicious as always - went out to celebrate my grandson’s birthday

Best pizza I've ever had. 5 of us went. Food and wine excellent and service great considering how busy it was. Was a delay getting mains out but wasn't an issue at all and we'll be back!

Great food, atmosphere, and service in a very nice setting, tucked away like a secret. Highly recommended.

Terrible service, more than 40 min wait for our booked table, they forgot to bring us our drinks. Would not recommend.

Ridiculous, Booked for 8:15pm said 5-10mins at 8pm 8:10 said 2 mins and proceeded to ignore us at 8:35 and its now 8:55

As v regular visitors to the village, i nonetheless write this as a (sadly) non local. The Colosseo is abseloutely rocking on a Sat night. Plush, upmarket feeĺing yet relaxed. Very good & expansive menu. Great vibe, busy & "towny" in a good way. My wife & I loved it. Really good food, ace service. A real treat in this perfect village. Thanks guys,

Probably the most fresh n tasty food I have eaten in a long time ! The Calamari starter was next level .. as was the king prawn linguine 👌

Proper authentic Italian food and service.100% recommend staff were as fantastic as the food

Great fun, food and staff. Had a fantastic evening. Highly recommend xx

Found this place last night (Saturday) we were frozen and hungry and got a table straight away what a treat the food and the atmosphere were out of this world we would like to thank the staff for accommodating us you made us feel very special it was a perfect ending to our weekend away

Faultless, quality food. Excellent service. Good choice of cocktails. A pleasant evening venue.

Amazin food and great staff....🥰🥰

We are regulars at this place, each time we go it’s a 10/10 dining experience. The staff are incredible, they can’t do enough for you. The service is second to non and the food is to die for, i have tried multiple things of the menu and they are all top quality. One of the best restaurants I have ever been too. I recommend you try the Fillet el pepe and you will not be disappointed

Food was exceptional as was the service I always judge restaurants by their glassware Theirs were immaculate Great food, Great location, great service

I went with my daughter and baby Grandson. Approximately 7pm. It was already full downstairs so we were helped upstairs (with the pram). I had the peppercorn chicken and my daughter had steak .Everything was perfect from the service, to the wine .The food was absolutely gorgeous. Would definitely go again

Was the only place open late and we were pleasantly surprised. Great food quality and service. Real pizza and risotto , got to visit hayfield for food again next time.

I came here very last minute quite late due to a timings issue. They had no problem with the late-ness, didn't pressure me, even though I imagine their kitchen wanted to shut down. The service was good and the staff were freindly. I had two perfect pints, a very tasty rib starter and good pizza, whichi couldn't finish but they put in a box for me. The prices were very reasonable too. I'd happily eat here again. The waitress was particularly good but unfortunately I don't have her name.

Fantastic restaurant, went for my Grandsons birthday, the staff were amazing thoughtful, kind and attentive.Really made my Grandsons birthday special. Food was beautiful and the cocktails were lush. Would highly recommend this restaurant 5*.

Food was amazing, and staff were fun, and welcoming. Will definitely eat there again.

Amazing restaurant. Everyone at our table agreed that this was one of the best Italian restaurants they had been to (and we have 5 Italian restaurants on our block alone). Some of our favourite dishes were the scallop starters, the marshmallow cocktail and the prawn linguine, but all the dishes were consistently good. Particularly impressive given the large size of the menu. The service was also excellent throughout the meal.

Loved this restaurant. Excellent food, service spot on, reasonably priced, lovely buzzing atmosphere. A real gem.

Wow! We are staying in Hayfield for a holiday and liked the look of this restaurant on arrival. After looking at great reviews we visited on 13th September and we were not disappointed. Mario's and Bachi were fantastic from the start. The place was busy but the service was exceptional and the food was delicious. Well done guys we had a great night and will definitely return.
