Lubens in High Peak

Enjoyed delicious pretheatre meal. Warm and friendly atmosphere. Pleasant and efficient service from Ashley and the rest of the staff.

Great service from Lucy (thanks 🙂), great ambiance, great locally sourced food and great value! …and on a snowy day a lovely real fire .

Such a lovely find. Wonderful ambiance and people. Spotlessly clean. The lamb burger was so full of taste, best burger we’ve ever eaten! We will definitely return to sample the sharing boards.

Just a lovely friendly, cosy place! Food and service was great. Great value for money too. First time, pre drinks and meal before show at the opera house, will definitely be back. Thank you so much x

What a fabulous place, really cosy, great service and food. We had the Mac and cheese and the Halloumi salad and trust me both were fresh and tasty. Fabulous cocktails try the French Martini! Go you won't be disappointed

We had walked past this place over several evenings and seen it packed so decided to try it for lunch and were not disappointed. Chose a sharing platter, and it was beautifully presented, so much choice, all so fresh and it almost beat us! Great value as well. Coffee served with an amaretto biscuit; lovely attentive service but not intrusive. Overall a superb place to visit.

A great find in Buxton, the place had a cool relaxed vibe with a good uncomplicated menu , I recommend the Delhi sharer washed down with a good pint .. excellent value money ..

Had lunch, which was so good that we also booked for dinner. Great food, vegetarian and not, great service, lovely atmosphere. Had a really lovely evening, thank you.

Fantastic place for amazing food and friendly service. Quality food at very reasonable price. We had a truly wonderful evening here for my sister's Birthday. The food was amazing and everyone was totally friendly. Thank you for making our evening a really memorable experience.

We were staying in Buxton for a short break, literally round the corner from this place. We were drawn in by the atmosphere and the local vibe. We weren't disappointed. We came two nights in a row. The food was exceptional and service outstanding! Very attentative friendly staff. Would highly recommend!!!!

I could not fault anything on my plate. we had Sunday lunch roast beef. followed by strawberry and cream cheese cake. First class cooking.

Lovely buzzy cafe bar to have a pre theatre meal. Great open fire loads of atmosphere and prompt service. Loved the twirly chairs in the window.

What a fantastic bar and restaurant. The food and service is absolutely exceptional and is great value for money. We had the festive sharer - it was amazing. I hope they do it all year long !!!

Visited NYE for a date night. The atmosphere was lovely and warming. The team were brilliant and very welcoming. My wife and I ate the bread and olives to start, followed by a buttermilk chicken burger and a beef special. They were exceptional in flavour, portion size and quality! I wish I lived closer to visit more often!

Wonderful place. Staff couldn’t be more helpful. Atmosphere was cosy and cool. Food was really good. We went to the pub opposite after but should have just stayed here. Nicest place in Buxton

12 of us visited Lebens on a Sunday afternoon in mid December . After booking we were asked to choose from the Sunday menu .we chose from the menu a few days from going by emailing . Upon arriving our table had been set we...

Lovely atmosphere, friendly staff and the best playlist i’ve ever heard in a bar. Please put it on Spotify!! I will definitely be back.

Table of six for Sunday lunch, booked because of the reviews. Lovely atmosphere and pleasant service, unfortunately there was a hair in my food, not just on top, but a long hair wound around in the cabbage. It was dealt with well by the staff...

Booked Sunday lunch for 6 friends visiting Buxton. Based on website we were really looking forward to it. Ambience and decor were lovely and staff were all polite and friendly. However the Sunday roast billed as a large meal was certainly a small portion. 3...

What a lovely little bar! We hadn't booked, but were made to feel welcome straight away and a table was found for us. We had the sharing platter, and my, it was certainly filling - pork pie, scotch egg, parmentier potatoes, olives, bread, cheese and...

We didn’t book and were lucky a table was free! Our food was really nice and service very friendly. Would recommend this place if you are in the area.

This is a lovely bar, the staff are awesome! Great selection of drinks. We didn't eat but the food looked and smelled fantastic.

Fantastic bar/restaurant .Great atmosphere , lovely food and staff are brilliant . Would highly recommend and dogs are welcome too 😊.

A lovely welcome ,excellent food , quality beer and a great atmosphere. Looking forward to an opportunity to return.

We’d booked and were glad we had as Saturday night the place was busy. And deservedly so. The staff are excellent, friendly and efficient they let us move table despite the busyness and got our food out to us with no noticeable delay despite the...

Just perfect - a warm welcome throughout ,excellent food , quality beer and a great atmosphere. Looking forward to an opportunity to return.

Perfect medium sized but cosy restaurant come wine bar come brasserie. Seems like a few regular locals like to sit towards the back of the shop using it as a pleasant pub, this gives the wine bar/pub type of atmosphere, all patrons were well turned...

My husband and I made a reservation on 21st October at 5pm for dinner before a show we was watching at the Opera House. We had travelled from North Warwickshire and seen Lubens online and liked the look of it and it was close to...

The chap in Jo Royle outdoor recommended Lubens when we asked where was good to eat that was dog-friendly and what a good decision to go. The staff are lovely, the atmosphere is great, the interior is quirky and interesting, the range of drinks is...

belting place Lubens. Great staff and atmosphere, sucked me in and stayed much longer than anticipated. Couldn't recommend enough

Great place to relax and chat. Excellent atmosphere. The staff were excellent and the food was fantastic too

We had a beautiful meal here at the weekend. Baked Camembert to start and then the Sunday roast and it was all delicious. The staff were incredibly friendly which made our visit even more enjoyable. Would definitely recommend.

Visited before a play. Lively atmosphere and decor. We were served really quickly. Plenty to choose from. Vegetarian options are available. Had a choice of Pepsi and Coca-Cola! The food was piping hot (throughout) and very tasty.

Having eaten too much cake at lunchtime we didn't want a massive dinner so opted for the deli board and some cheese. OMG what a feast. That was the best sharing, comfort food I have ever had in a British restaurant. The best bit was...

Just enjoyed a really nice meal in Lubens. Food was great. Good value. ...staff friendly....dog friendly too. Love the decor and chilled vibe.

Wow this place! Incredible service , you feel like they genuinely care about making your time there great. Even little touches like giving my 1 year old his own baby cutlery. The food was insane… massive portions and at such reasonable prices. Wish we lived...

Stumbled in here with the wind blowing the rain horizontally. Only in Buxton for one night so had a pint after the matinee of “The Full Monty”. Even the cast were here! We’d booked elsewhere for dinner or we’d have eaten here too. Came back...

I’m writing this review as I’ve just finished my chicken thigh burger. UNREAL service- our waitresses were so lovely and chatty. Food was gorgeous and the atmosphere was unreal. Can’t recommend this place enough

Called in before going to an evening showing at the local theatre. We hadnt booked but luckily the restaurant staff found us a table. The menu has a varied selection for all tastes and there is also a specials board. We both selected main meals...

Really enjoyed our visit here. There were six of us and we didn't have a booking but they accommodated us regardless. Fairly extensive menu that also caters for gluten free too. I had the steak burger and chips and that was definitely a great choice....

Faultless and perfect! I do not normally leave reviews unless totally deserved. Checked out comments beforehand and was not disappointed.

Picked it by chance visiting Buxton, but what a pick. 5.30 on a Friday and it was buzzing with a healthy atmosphere. Not sure what to eat as we were going to the Opera House so we chose the sharing board. Perfect

We spent a few days in Buxton and as we did last year ate at Lubens 3 times. The. Food was amazing and was great to see variation in the specials. Great selection of local beers. We really enjoyed Lubens a real first class restaurant

Booked ahead for a birthday lunch for my wife. The service was fast and friendly, and the food excellent. We shared the veggie platter, which was very tasty, varied and interesting. They also offer a good selection of beers, and my wife said her NZ...

Wow so pleased we went for lunch at Lubens, the food and service was that excellent we went back to eat in the evening. Fantastic venue we loved this place thank you 😊

Called in without a reservation and even though they were fully booked couldn’t have been more accommodating and managed to juggle the tables and fit us in. The roast beef dinner was delicious and the staff were so friendly and welcoming. I would absolutely recommend...

Went here for the first time last night with gal pals. The decor is lovely and the food is great. We got table service for food and drinks and didn’t have to move a muscle! The lady with longe blonde hair and lad with brown...

Friendly staff, great food and very accommodating. The small plates & fish cakes were delicious. Children’s meals reasonably priced. I’d definitely come back.

Called in for drinks as we were passing and stayed to eat as we fancied the Sunday roast really enjoyed it, the staff were great too, highly recommend 👍

Really lovely restaurant with super friendly staff and elegant decor. We highly recommend the mussels and chips followed by salted caramel white chocolate cheesecake. The bathrooms are really clean and the hand soap smells lovely too!

We were passing and popped in with my parents for an early supper at 5ish. We had the cheese platter and it was enough for us all with some extra bread added - very generous portions and beautifully presented. Lovely selection of cheeses. Also as...

I chose Lubens because it has good reviews and seemed to be one of the few restaurants in Buxton with a children’s menu. When we arrived the restaurant was quite full but the waitress accommodated us with an extra chair at the table. What she...

Popped in for a quick bite, big table had just left because of a lack of vegan food…hey ho…anyway.Sharing platter,the veggie one, oh dear…Luke warm mushrooms,( not) marinated feta, bits and bobs , fried potatoes ( parmentier?) and a bowl of dip which neither of...

Went to Lubens a few weeks ago and had a fantastic evening. We pretty much sampled most of the menu and it was all great. The staff were fantastic the service great and the cocktails even better. We will be going again, lovely atmosphere. Thanks...

We decided to stop in to Luben’s for lunch while visiting the UK from Canada. I actually picked it based on a recommendation from ChatGPT while planning our area travel itinerary. Unfortunately, the food was not very good. Three of us had the fish cakes...

I was lucky to find a moment when the bar was relatively quiet; and had a very nice experience - sitting by the window looking out. Staff were kind. And soup and wine were nice; followed by good coffee. Really grateful that someone found my...

Great staff, great service and great food. We called on a busy Saturday early evening. No reservation but the staff were able to slot us is during a busy service. Drinks and food were served quickly and the food was delicious. This isn’t our first...

Great atmosphere, tasty food, good sized portions and relaxed vibe, fairly speedy service and comfy seating

Food fantastic. Value for money fantastic. Service fantastic. Atmosphere fantastic. Real logs fires in winter. Way better than anywhere in centre of Buxton.

I just suggest you go there and let the food do the talking for itself. Fantastic food at very reasonable prices.

The kitchen was closed at the time we went here for a beer but the waitress offered to prepare something tasty for us. It tasted very good! Great service an exceptionally nice girl. Moreover, an attractive place

Very interesting restaurant, great food and service. We’ll worth another visit next time we are in the area.

Outstanding service and a regional/fusion menu served in an environment that allows for intimate conversation. This is the perfect place to go before the opera.

Great experience from start to finish on a Sunday evening - lovely atmosphere and feel as soon as you walk in through the door - it was busy - all tables full and lots of very well behaved dogs - the bar area is small...

Great ambience…..Generous…this is a find. The best ever veg platter, good wine. Huge thanks to Josh Kerry and Kieran for helping to make it a most relaxing tîme

We found this whilst on holiday as a family. We have a wonderful relaxed lunch, the food was excellent and the staff were so helpful & attentive. Josh looked after us along with a girl who's name I cannot remember (sorry) but they were both...

Lubens had the best reviews so I wanted to try it. We were in the area for a week so had lunch out every day and Lubens was the best after some other very good meals. We had the fishcakes and the mussels from the...

Popped in for a drink after house hunting, lovely place, very welcoming and well set up. Saw the menu and had to try. Partner had the topped nachos and I have fish finger sandwich. Massive portions, and both dishes were so delicious! It was fairly...

Fantastic meal - interesting menu, particularly the sharing platters and the daily specials board. My wife and I shared the Lubens platter - all excellent, great contrasts especially the pickled salads. Then my wife had the honeycomb cheesecake off the daily specials. She wasn’t keen...

Stopped for lunch and the open sandwiches were fantastic. I had the rump steak and it was jam packed with perfectly cooked steak with a delicious salad and potatoes. Great service from Josh and Lily - incredibly friendly, helpful and welcoming. Great value. Amazing food....

Absolute gem in Buxton, friendly, relaxed atmosphere and lovely food. My wife and I went during a visit to Buxton on a weekend away. I would recommend booking as we went on a Saturday lunch and it was very popular.

Amazing meal and service. Very special, I would definitely come again. Saw it on trip advisor or we are not disappointed

Visited Lubens for the first time whilst in Buxton for the day. Easy to find just off the market place with a couple of public car parks close by & about 5 mins walk from the Pavilion Gardens. Quite a small place so I would...

What an absolute gem of a place. The food here is amazing. Myself and the wife had the sharing meat platter to start off with. It was delicious and very filling. I went on to have the beef stew special, again it was fantastic. I...

Outstanding service and food all fresh and extremely tasteful! Highly recommended. Nothing to much trouble and Dog friendly.

Lovely walk around Buxton and stopped off here for a late lunch. We had halloumi burger of the specials board and pasta. Both beautiful, in a lovely setting and very good service. Thank you 😊

Fantastic staff and management make this place work at the highest levels- all round- food/ drink/ambience/efficiency/comfort all round a great place to visit--even the visiting dogs appear to appreciate it as they are all very well behaved not particularly a fan of pooches in pubs...

Friday afternoon drinks with friends - Twas’ the most glorious, warm, friendly space with phenomenal drinks choice and food (I’m partial to a good pint of Jaipur and a cheese board). If you’re in Buxton and looking for drinks and food, this is your place.

Great ambience, great food, great service - Just Great Can’t say much more as there was nothing to criticise.

Stopped for a pint, ended up a few and stayed for the food. Very friendly staff, great atmosphere and good food. Highly recommend

Nice furniture, nice music, excellent menu,good value. Lovely staff, Cameron, who served us was charming. Good value for money. I'd recommend the Shipyard ale too

Really lovely staff.. friendly, personable and nothing too much trouble. Really appreciated not being rushed as one of our party was running late. Food lovely, nicely presented and tasty! Just a great chilled experience

Called in for lunch. Sat of very comfortable sofa near the fire. Had the sharing platter. Very tasty and an interesting blend of flavours. Drinks reasonably priced and staff friendly and efficient. Definitely going back

Lubens was a really good find in Buxton. Great food, excellent service , good beer all in cosy surroundings. Important as it was snowing outside!! Will definitely return and would very much recommend.

What a great little place this is in Buxton. If you are looking for excellent customer service, chilled and relaxed atmosphere and amazing food that is reasonably priced this is a fab choice. First time there with friends but will definitely go again. The only...
