Miners Arms in Derbyshire Dales

Great little pub with a good selection of beers and spirits. Food is lovely and made on the premises. The people who run the pud are such lovely and friendly people. Would recommend if visiting the area.

The most delicious genuine homemade food.

Such a lovely, friendly welcome from the landlord on my first visit. So much so, I returned each day whilst I was enjoying a mini break in Brassington. From a drink with a great selection of 0% , to delicious award winning pies & lovely homemade cookies on offer at the bar too. And lots of seating outdoors, undercover & space to look up to the stars with lovely lighting. Highly recommend!!

Ordered lasagne as didn't want a big meal, well large slice of lasagne 4 pieces of garlic bread and a lovely salad and service was good, can't comment to much on atmosphere as not many in at the time Old fashioned pub that wouldn't suit younger patrons but I loved it.

Popped in for a drink after going to Harboro Rocks. Great service in a nice local pub. Didn't have food but it looked nice from looking at other customers tables!

Good pies! They allow dogs but they let their dog wander around intimidating other dogs.

We've just enjoyed a 2 night stay at the pub and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Set in a beautiful village close to lots of walks. Well equipped and good size room. Landlord and Landlady were lovely and welcoming and they even let us take their gorgeous little dog for a walk. Very nice breakfast and no problems with parking. Would definitely recommend.

Roast beef dinner for £10.95 (!!) - buttery mash, crispy yorkshire pud, melt in the mouth beef (this is always the tricky bit - stringy ,overcooked, dry etc...not here), carrots, broclli and peas and huge roasties, plus a large jug of thick gravy. Followed up with home made sticky toffee pud and custard - didn't really have the room but shared with my son because 'we just had too'. Honest country pub with fabulous landlord/lady. One not to miss.

Really great pies! The staff there are also very friendly and always there to help. This is a lovely local pub with a great atmosphere

Lovely welcoming inn at the end of a long walk. Very dog friendly. Great beer and lovely toasties. We will return to sample the speciality pies!

A proper country pub with friendly service and locals. Visited with my wife and dogs whilst out on a walk and was made to feel very welcome by everyone, decent pint of Landlord also!

What a wonderful find in Brassington.. Fantastic pub with a really lovely landlord. Polite, friendly and so welcoming..and we only had one drink .. We we doing a walk & was only passing through. Would definitely call in again. Next time to gave a meal too. A splendid pub with a great outdoor seating area too.

I stayed over at the Miner's Arms as I was doing the local Ultra Challenge event in Bakewell. The owners are simply wonderful and go out of their way to make your stay as lovely as they can. The love and care they have for their customers and the locals really permeates through the hotel. The pub itself is wonderful and welcoming. It's is so cosy and quaint. The food is home made and is exceptional, the pub is really welcoming and you can tell how much the owners are loved and respected by the locals and they all made me feel so welcome. I honestly felt like I had known them for years. The room was beautiful and really cosy. I'm not a great sleeper, but the bed was so comfortable that I slept great. I loved everything about my stay. It is situated in a gorgeous village with lots of places to walk, and with exceptional views. The owners wanted to do everything they could to make my stay the best they could. The reason for my stay was I was doing a 100km challenge charity walk close by in Bakewell. The walk was horrendous but I was well looked after by the owners. They went out of their way to make me feel welcome and they were so caring. I got injured on the walk and they stayed up to make sure I was back and safe. They cared for me in the morning and helped me bring my bags down and made sure I got to my car. They were incredible and my stay was wonderful. I almost didn't want to leave. Honestly, I could not have chosen a better place to stay. I was so happy I chose to stay here and I will definitely be coming back to stay and I will be a regular visitor for the food. I live over an hour away, but the travel will be more than worth it.

Lovely Sunday dinner today in a nice cool airy room with hgh ceiling. Excellent vegetarian pies available which is always a treat. Great Yorkshire puddings and toasties too. Really friendly staff. A gem that we will definitely return to!

Chanced upon this pub out on our hike and had the most delightful afternoon, good food, lovely friendly family feel to the pub. Live music was a bonus - couldn’t recommend it more! We will be back!

Popular pub with walkers and locals.

Keep it a secret. A hidden gem.

Julie and Trevor were great hosts and the food is lovely and reasonably priced, great atmosphere and very relaxing ! Genuine pub with genuine hosts and superb pub food. Highly recommend and worth a visit .

Great Local Pub, Pies are amazing and so are the desserts! Lovely atmosphere with the fire going and lovely puppy for company!

Very traditional country pub. Enjoyed the most delicious pies and mash. I had minted lamb and hubby had steak pie. Will certainly return if back this way.

Good home made food and puddings. A real treat.

Great pub.. beer and food fantastic and good value. Dog friendly too

What a friendly landlord and charming pub!

Absolutely lovely pub. Amazing food with friendly staff and locals that can’t do enough to make you feel welcome and share their knowledge about the local area. Ate there on 3 separate occasions and every time the food was stunning. The pies are a must! Will definitely visit again in our travels 😊

We had lunch in the Miner’s and were hugely impressed. The welcome from the landlord (who took over quite recently) was warm and genuine. He served a very well-kept pint of TT Landlord’s bitter. Food was fresh, hot and tasty including locally-sourced pepper’s pies which were awesome. We will certainly return to the Miner’s at Brassington for a meal or simply a friendly pint!

Our second visit to eat here, both very enjoyable for the company and the food. Staff and locals are all welcoming and the food is good quality, home cooked pub food classics. Will definitely return.

Staying briefly in the village, thought we'd give the Miners a try. Good call! The wide variety of steak pies was mind boggling. We chose steak and stilton and steak solo. A pot of gravy to accompany, with home made chips. Washed down with a pint of well served Landlord ale. Fully recommend if you're in the area.

Didn't have food but cracking pub

Friendly welcome and tasty, wholesome food. Definitely recommend the pies 😋

The Miners Arms is exactly what a village local should be. Warm, cosy, friendly and with good food. We have stayed in Brassington before, so know the pub. A perfect Sunday afternoon sat with friendly people, eating a cracking roast dinner, watching the footy. Wish we had this as our local pub.

We were staying in Brassington for a few days and thought we would try out the local pub. As soon as we walked in,we were warmly greeted by Trevor, Julie and Ronnie their dog! We ate there on 2 of our 3 nights and the food was amazing. Home cooked food, reasonably priced and delicious - huge portions too! Definitely recommend the steak & stilton pie ❤️ My teenage children were also welcomed & we even stayed for the Saturday night quiz & 'sticky 13s' which was so much fun. Great atmosphere, friendly and home-cooked comfort food- what's not to like!

Booked here for dinner after a day National Trusting with my parents. My dad is a very fussy eater so we have to find somewhere that does traditional British pub grub with a decent pint. Well The Miners Arms fitted the bill perfectly with their obviously home cooked traditional fayre. Simple food done really well. We all enjoyed our meals with the only disappointment being too full to sample the gorgeous looking homemade desserts on offer! My dad was very happy with his Marston’s Pedigree so success all round. Lovely friendly staff and customers.

Called in after a day walking the Limestone Way. Greeted by that beautiful ambiance that you cannot find in many places. The landlord was welcoming which is always good start. This place is a hidden gem. The pies are wonderful. They keep a scoreboard on the wall of all the available pies because they tend to disappear so quickly. We both had minted lamb pie & chips with a jug of gravy each. So delicious we came back the next day and had the same again! Fabulous place. (The beer is good too.)

One of the best Sunday roasts I've ever had! It's a must visit if you are in the area.

We ate at the Miners Arms a couple of times during our week in Brassington. Very friendly and welcoming atmosphere. The kids loved the dog and kept them entertained! The home cooked food was delicious and the portions were huge, especially the puddings. We ended up taking it home with us. There were also huge homemade sausage rolls that tempted us up on the bar, which we couldn't resist and of course didn't disappoint. Would highly recommend the Miners.

A proper pub with excellent food, well-kept cask ales and great service. Ronnie the dog kept us entertained! Highly recommended, thank you!

Very welcoming, friendly pub. Popped in for a quick light lunch today. Could not fault it.

A little shabby but very friendly with a great atmosphere. Food is great. Would recommend

Great beer, very friendly staff and a fab beer garden

Came for an event, had lunch and dinner there, both brilliant but can highly recommend the pies! Great group and fab atmosphere. We were made to feel very welcome! Will call again!

Loved our Sunday lunch while out on our ride..made most welcome

Proper home-cooked food, we all had different pies and chips - all delicious. Great value and enormous portions. Cracking pub!

Amazing food!! - especially Pies!!! Great atmosphere, very attentive and friendly staff.. and black doggie who made out day by bringing his toy and waiting to throw it back to him ! I would be a regular if it was my local pub 😉❗ Only one thing put me down - toilets. They need a good scrub.

Absolutely loved it we will be back ..

What a little gem 💎 ✨️ local sourced food 😍 the steak and Stilton pie omg. You must try 😉 I even sourced the local supplier as it was that good.

Excellent pies, good beer and garden

The staff where brilliant very friendly was made very welcome,the food was brilliant would definitely recommend going

The beer garden is very untidy .the tables look like they have never seen any soap and water.there are dogs running wild.dog excretion on the garden which looked like it had been there for days The pub looks inviting from the outside but what a massive disappointment when inside.not to be visited by me again ever.Tony from Matlock

A really wonderful pub! A proper pub. Great beer and great food. The landlord and landlady couldn’t be friendlier. We stayed in Brassington for a couple of nights and fell in love with the Miners’ Arms. Clientele are also very friendly. Keep an eye out for Ronnie the dog too. He’s very cute indeed! Definitely worth a visit! Reasonably priced too!

What a fantastic find we were staying about a mile from brassington for a weeks holiday, we visited on the first night of our stay and returned another twice during the week. Firstly we received such a lovely warm and friendly welcome from the staff and locals. The food was fantastic, good home cooking and very good value. A varied menu but do try the meat pies. If you are staying near Brassington do visit the Miners Arms, do not bother to try anywhere else. Thanks to all for making our holiday so pleasant and enjoyable

Very welcoming staff good home cooked food at a good price. Went to a lot of effort to make our birthday celebrations special. They brought a birthday cake out complete with candles and a card. Would highly recommend you visit the best pub in the village.

Wonderful hospitality on my mother's 80th birthday. Having been let down at the last minute by another pub in the village, we (a party of 7) walked in off the street and were catered for with no prior warning, we were made to feel most welcome. The landlord even managed to arrange a superb surprise birthday cake without being asked and didn't want payment for !! The food was delicious, as was the cake, the portions were most generous and prices very reasonable. It's so heart warming and brought a tear to our eyes to see such humanity in a failing world. Thank you so much you made my mother's 80th very special.

Classic English pub! Loved it! I had the shepherd's pie. It was to die for! Home-made, fresh, and delicious. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Portions are big, so be mindful when ordering.

wonderful welcome....we stayed in Brassington and the pub was amazing...went for a drink in the garden on Friday night and then again on Sunday for a roast dinner...was lovely..everything was amazing. ..was really homely and a lovely local pub which I would like near me!!!...we shall be visiting again xx

Lovely staff, very friendly atmosphere and great food

Great food, nice pint of beer very friendly staff

Proper village local, very friendly and a great place to stop after a walk. Nice food and plenty of choice too. Lots of good beers on the bar. Super super friendly

Warm welcome from Trev and Ronnie, how nice to go to a pub that serves pub grub with a homely welcome rather than claiming to be a 'gastro pub'. Our break in Brassington was unfortunately cut short, so we missed out on the Wednesday Chinese night. Hope to return in the future for an enjoyable home cooked meal.

Good pies, very busy on Saturdays

More of a modern pub than the gate. We went for a drink just after 2100, and pub was quite rowdy, as there was a magician in. Pub was full of locals, but not much of an atmosphere.

One of the best local friendly pubs in the area, good beer, nice atmosphere and warm

In an era where many local pubs are unfortunately closing, it was an absolute delight to stumble upon this pub. It's everything a pub should be. Cosy, welcoming, unpretentious, home cooked food, friendly staff. We absolutely loved it and will definitely return. Highly recommended.

Really nice homely food, great house red and lovely Prosecco. Hosts welcoming and friendly. Would go back

Whilst on holiday in The Peak District, we walked The Limestone Way from Parwich to Brassington (and back). There are two pubs in the village, but we called at The Miners Arms for a drink stop. As soon as we walked through the door, we knew we had found a little hidden gem. We were greeted by extremely friendly owners/staff and a crackling log fire. The drinks prices were reasonable (£4.10 for a pint of Staropramen) and service was great. We seated ourselves by the fire and were quickly greeted by the lovely pub dogs, which the staff let us feed a treat to. We didn’t order food, but we perused the menu, which was all reasonably priced and had plenty of choice. There were vegan, vegetarian and gluten free options available. There was a beer garden and the pub was dog friendly and walker friendly. There was also a large TV to show live sports. This pub was 10/10 and we would have loved to have stayed longer if time had allowed. Thank you!

Excellent home cooked food, friendly atmosphere at fantastic value, definitely revisiting again and again 👍

Went for Sunday lunch. Staff were friendly and welcoming. Nothing too much trouble. Food was good price for big portions. Really nice atmosphere and warm log fire.

Small, local bar. Friendly staff and good service. Reasonably priced food

Everything you want in a local pub. Trevor and Julie are great landlords, welcoming and lovely to chat to. Dog friendly and lovely pies !!

Spent a week away nearby and found pub to be a friendly and welcoming. The Sunday lunch was good with very large portions. Also had pies on another evening an amazing selection available all 4 of us chose a different pie but we all thought were best pies we had tasted and chips were brilliant. Would recommend a visit.

Absolutely, top notch... So friendly and amazing food... Homemade and great presentation.. 👍

Nice friendly people and warm welcome Nice drink in the peaks

We stumbled across this lovely little pub purely by chance and will definitely be visiting again! Food was home made, cooked to order and delicious! Compliments to the Chef!!!

What a great find! Lovely pub, lovely people, lovely grub!

Great meal at the Miners Arms. Award winning pies that were truly amazing. Great choice of drinks and lovely little shop too for a few provisions as we were in our motor home. No issues parking and a lovely friendly welcome from everyone. Going again tonight it was so good. Huge recommendation!

We stayed in Brassington and ate in this pub 3 nights. Food was amazing and all home cooked. The staff couldn’t have been more welcoming. On one of the evenings we went to another pub to eat only to find it closed. We headed to...

We stayed in a cottage opposite and this pub was fantastic. Very friendly staff, Great (huge portions) food and well kept draft ale even when the mercury hit 38C we visited most days and enjoyed this great simplistic pub.

Lovely quaint village pub with great food portions and very friendly owners who are very welcoming. welcoming to dogs too. Serve a cracking pint and very relaxed and friendly. Fully recommend . Lasagna is lush

Welcome break and coffee on a 10 mile circular walk from Wirksworth. Good selection of cake to have with the coffee.

Lovely pub, nice food and great service. Strongly recommend.

A proper pub with proper good pub food at a reasonable price, great beer and welcoming landlord/landlady!

Very welcoming, dog friendly pub serving good ale and good home cooked food. my lasagne was just what i needed after a long morning walk in the surrounding countryside.

We found this pub on our way home from Alton Towers and were fortunate enough to get a table. Very accommodating and friendly staff. The food was delcious- far more interesting than just standard pub fare but cooked beautifully. Great atmosphere. Would highly recommend.

I cannot recommend this pub enough. We stayed in a holiday cottage in brassington for our holiday and had the pleasure of being welcomed into this pub on 3 occasions. Myself, my husband and our 2 teenage daughters were made to feel extremely welcome by...

Had a lovely lunch with friends here. The gentleman behind the bar was very welcoming. We decided to sit outside as the weather was sunny and the beer garden was delightful with mature planting and nice tables and chairs. The food was a good selection of pub classics with several meat free options. There were three hand pulled ales that day and a nice selection of soft drinks. All the staff were great, really helpful. We will definitely be returning.

Down to earth with a great welcome by the landlord and lady, thank you! Brassington is a lively spot too!

A really warm welcome greeted us. The first time ever going there and was made most welcome. We ate there too and the meals are excellent, well presented and beautifully made. A fair selection of drinks available, and there is a small beer garden to the rear to enjoy drinks in the sun.

Lovely relaxed atmosphere fantastic owners, and beautiful home cooked food x

Very friendly pub with good food and drink
