The Bear Inn in Amber Valley

Lovely Sunday Lunch and great service!

Wonderful Sunday lunch. Top tasty food and good value for money

Great Sunday lunch was down with good beer!! Excellent

What fabulous Easter weekend we had staying at the bear Inn, from the moment we arrived, Wendy & her staff catered for everything we needed, we took our dog Ralph, to say he was spoilt & well looked after was an understatement, if you are looking for a weekend away in derbyshire, with your pet dog this is the place, lots of walks & very close to the popular little tourist towns, Bakewell just 20 mins away, the bear inn is a great base to stay, also a fantastic menu, the Breakfast has got to be the best Breakfast I've had, thanks again to the lovely Wendy, her son Chris & their staff, see you again love Paul, Sue & Ralph (the little frenchie)

We haven't been here for several years, as the previous owners had let standards slip. Very pleased that we returned, new people running the pub, good selection of drinks, main menu and a Specials board, very clean, polite staff, everything was spot on. The food was delicious and a generous serving. Looking forward to returning in a couple of weeks.

Outstanding place, sincerely excellent food (in no small quantities), ancient place (since 1735 at least), highly recommendable

Fabulous meal tonight, steak night. Steaks were spot on, pie was also fabulous 👌 👏

Room was cold. Food portion was small & arrived cold over priced for what it is better off going to a toby carvery! Over all disappointing

Firstly the main room was freezing & empty no other customers was in there we asked to be moved to other room ( main bar room )where there was a fire and much warmer has we was cold but this request was declined please bear in mind we had children with us ' Who wants to sit eating there dinner cold ❄ !! Price has risen to £16.95 for "roast" beef dinner the meat was not roasted and definitely not carved of a joint its was more like packet sandwich meat from supermarket the dinner arrived cold & the portions was small and left our party still feeling hungry. We used to go to the bear often especially when it was a carvery but we will not be returning again in the future its gone down hill massively. For anyone who is thinking of visiting the bear and expecting it to be decent don't was your time or money Left feeling frustrated and unsatisfied

Went for Sunday lunch the food was very nice, the only one criticism is it wasn’t the hottest meal I’ve ever had, but besides that very nice.

Very cosy and romantic inn. Great pub and restaurant.

Great to see The Beat open again lovely food and good beer. The room where we eat could have been a bit warmer. No fire and the radiator was cold.

The Bear Inn has been a chosen spot for the fiancé and I for many years. The place took a slight dip downwards around Covid, however, it has since returned to full force. Presumably thanks to new staff + management. We highly recommend! The food on offer is always beautifully prepared, fresh, and delicious. We have soldem been disappointed. It’s set in a beautifully secluded area and the 16th century inn is a delightful setting to enjoy an evening.

Went for a Christmas meet up with family at the dog friendly Bear Inn. The food was mixed, the mains were great and very generous, the deserts less so and a bit of a disappointment. The service was ok, they were all really friendly but at times it was difficult to get hold of anyone. The dining areas are spread across multiple rooms which makes it feel cosy. All said and done, I would happily come back to dine here again.

Excellent Inn really enjoyed the stay here. Good food good beer & a nice comfortable bed 5 out of 5 👍🏻plus a great breakfast can really recommend this place.

We turned up without a reservation and was offered a great table by the fire. The place was really great and the staff super friendly. The food was amazing! we had 2 roasts of the Christmas menu, they are both really filling and really tasty.

Food was lovely service was great, clean, and tidy we will go again

This is my favourite place to stay and again I was not disappointed. Comfortable room and bed. Great service and food. I will.be back.

Would not recommend , this place used to be really good it’s gone one extreme to another , very small rubberised portions of meat , similar to packet meat very thin , definitely not fresh lamb , small portions all round and poor quality food , save your money give this a miss

I visited The Bear this afternoon with family, I live locally and we all had plated Sunday roasts. The plates was swimming in gravy (not my personal preference), the beef was fatty and very thinly cut, the roasties were not cooked properly and the cauliflower in the cauliflower cheese was very hard and under cooked. I'm not a fussy eater and it's rare for me to not enjoy a meal but this was noticeably poor. The staff were nice and friendly, no issues there and the puddings were fine. I did notice the room where we ate was also cold compared to the drinking section, although it wasn't significant. Reading other reviews i can see some of my comments are consistent. Such a shame for a pub that's got so much history and is in a great location. The current custodians are not living up to The Bears previous great reputation and risk undermining its legacy!

Review submitted, photos of interior, showing the empty fireplace. We visited for lunch which looked and tasted very nice but it was not hot barely warm and on a cold plate.

After a walk in shining cliff woods we had booked a table at the bear. We ordered 3 lamb dinners (£18 per head) also 3 drinks. The staff were friendly . When the meals arrived I was not impressed. The veg was OK, BUT the thin fatty lamb floating in my gravy looked more like a soup. It was the thinnest I have ever seen lamb cut .Not to mention the small portions. When asked if everything was OK, i said No, I'm not happy with the lamb. The waiter replied. "I shall tell chef. I ended up paying for the meals & leaving without any apology or explanation. I think this was very poor to what it used to be when they did a fantastic carvery.

Dissapointing to see no carvery anymore, regardless meat portions a lot smaller and veg aswell, quality of the meat gone down hill a lot too, wasn't asked if we wanted any sauces or anything either. dissapointing

Really nice food. Need to book in advance though.

Myself and 3 other friends called in here during our biking tour a couple of months ago and they didn't let us down. The staff were outstanding esp the chef she talked to us and told us about the place the night prior and said they would look after us and they didn't disappoint at all. The pie was the best iv ever had we expected something like a Pukka pie but what we got was worthy of a Kings banquet! Next time I'm passing by on the bike I will be stopping again.

Fabulous food, as always. Imaginative, perfectly freshly cooked to order. Good real ales & ciders too. Good walks nearby. Will return soon

Lovely old pub, great Sunday rost stunning views

Really awesome location, decent beers, food was pretty good too

Lovely, historic pub with exceptional views out back. The food was freshly prepared and very good.

Service is amazing- everyone is very welcoming and friendly. The food is absolutely scrumptious. I had the chicken floretine and it was cooked beautifully. The sauce, veg and garlic potatoes were gorgeous too. Best meal I have had in ages. My partner has the steak and ale pie, which too, was delicious. They happily allowed us stay overnight in our motorhome and accommodated the dogs in the pub too. Thank you.

Bit out of the way buy well worth the trip. Has rooms and couple of cottages. Didn't eat but what we saw looked lovely. (Just changing the menu - mussels and lots of other mouthwatering stuff.) Those in the know ask for a pint of Bass "out the back" - straight out of the cask with no pipes or fonts in the way!

We had roast dinner today it was beautiful really happy that we could book in later at tea time too. Will be visiting again stunning area

Needs to open up the restaurant for the meals and Sunday lunch carvery.

Wow. What a find. Lovely team, service was excellent and the food was A*. 100% recommend.

A lovely small pub with great customer service and delicious food, a cosey atmosphere with that authentic rustic feeling. Their roast dinners are very nice, with chicken, beef and pork to choose from, all very nicely done to the level of cookedness you prefer (rare/medium/well-done etc). I'm often disappointed with most pub food (even places that do carvery/roast dinner), as it tends to be cache and carry tier quality with no love put into preparation, but that's not true here, very nice food and high quality, which justifies the higher prices. The location is in a nice and quiet part of the derbyshire countryside. Athough it's secluded, it has decent parking. It's a real pub with proper food, which is what I like about it, a rare find these days. It gives a more rustic, traditional, peaceful and quiet vibe that allows one to feel more relaxed and get a real feeling of ease, while feeling like a welcomed traveler or visitor in old times gone by. I've only been here for dinner so I'm not sure what the rooms at the Inn are like, so I won't give them a score, but by going how everything is managed, I can imagine them being good.

We enjoyed the Sunday roast - four adults.The bar and table staff were efficient and friendly. We had the choice of pork or beef with usual trimmings. It was quiet when we visited and it felt that the atmosphere was lacking but this was no detriment to the staff. Overall - recommended.

Visited for dinner. Had some lovely home cooking in a very welcoming pub.

The Sunday lunch was awful - it reminded me of a school dinner. Firstly, the meals were stone cold but quickly exchanged when we confirmed, Roast potatoes - tasted like frozen. Beef - cheap cut, thinly sliced and fatty, Honey roast carrot - boiled carrots with no honey. Cauliflower cheese - undercooked cauliflower with lashings of melted cheese on top. Parsnip - boiled. 2 sprigs of tender stem broccoli - boiled. The Yorkshire pudding and mash (which was still cold even on the second run) was great! Service was also passable and forgettable. We noted that our (second) meal wasn’t great but no comment, not even an apology (and nothing reflected on the bill). Avoid.

Banging snap as always, love this place. Rate friendly staff too. The only part that I wasn't impressed with was a couple allowing a dog to roam freely around the area that we were eating at as I hadn't been made aware that animals were free to roam around a food establishment. Had I have known this in advance I would have requested a table in a different room due to my allergies.

We had a fantastic Sunday lunch at this lovely character-filled and nicely finished pub. The food itself was absolutely excellent with very generous portions. The vegetarian nut roast I had was excellent and the chicken which another of our party ordered was also perfectly cooked. These were all accompanied by very generous portions of fresh vegetables and a rich cauliflower cheese. This was followed up by some - again - very delicious desserts with a good selection for vegan and gluten-free diners. To top it off, the service was very quick and the staff friendly and attentive. We can easily say we’ll definitely return if we’re in the area again and I’ll definitely be recommending to others. Thank you!

2 night break at this family run inn. Check in was very easy and we we're shown to our room by the manager which was a very nice touch. The room we we're staying in was very well presented. Lovely decoration and period pieces of furniture. All usual room equipment. Only slight negative was the shower - it wasn't a very powerful one, but worked OK. Well kept and interesting selection of ales available. Food was excellent. The Big Bear breakfast is probably the best breakfast I have had in a hotel. Other breakfast options were also available. These too were great. If you intend to stay here, make sure you book if you wish to eat your evening meal here. It is very popular and it was easy to see why. The meal that my wife and I had was fantastic. All freshly prepared. Lastly all the staff were very friendly and attentive. If you are looking for a country inn within a fre miles of the Peak District you will not go far wrong with this one.

Don't know never been . But I'm sure it's nice. Google wants me to review this place for some reason.

Great venue, lovely views, yummy food, dog friendly, attentive staff

Had a one night stay, room comfortable, food excellent,very large breakfast! Peaceful countryside location.

We stopped off for lunch at the suggestion of a local, and the food was superb. Great quality and good value. More veggie options would be a great addition, but they were very helpful. I can’t comment on the accommodation as we didn’t stay.

Stayed here for 2 nights for a near by wedding. Place was lovely, Staff were really nice and the rooms were great value for money. We will definitely stay again

Absolutely fantastic choice for a great meal! We visited at around 6pm yesterday after a nearby walk, we were shown to a lovely table for two (with room for a border terrier to stretch out in comfort) and drinks arrived promptly along with a menu and a 'specials' board. The choice of starters and main courses was varied and imaginative, but not too extensive. I was torn between three or four possible starters and mains, all were extremely tempting. In the end I opted for the glazed halloumi as a starter and the Bear burger (named after the venue!) with triple cooked chips as a main. The starters arrived and the border terrorist sat up and took notice... the halloumi was outstanding, crispy chunks (sesame coated) in a nicely gooey glaze which combined sweet and tangy perfectly, this dish was definitely the hallmark of a chef who knew what they were doing. The furry rambler was offered a little corner of halloumi and was equally impressed, and she can be very picky... by this time we'd already resolved to return. After an excellent starter I find there's always a fear that the main course will be an anticlimax, but we needn't have worried. The Bear burger exceeded expectations - the meat was rich and tender and full of flavour, and was perfectly complemented by the cheddar, chutney and garlic aioli. Everything about this burger was beautifully balanced, the flavours all came through without fighting with each other. The chips were 'proper', pub chips often disappoint but these were terrific, again it was obvious that the chef understands their art in terms of flavour combinations and techniques. The only distraction from the food was the snuffling and and paw tapping, which, in the end, had the desired effect - it would be churlish to deny a dog a few nuggets of burger and a couple of chips, especially when she kept her demands at a socially acceptable volume. Onto dessert, I chose the warm brownie served with ice cream and it was lovely, the middle was melting but not too dense and the outside suitably light and crisp. Chocolate is, of course, out of bounds for hounds, but ours enjoyed a lick of rich vanilla ice cream before settlling down in the car for a comfortable replete drive home. In all seriousness, this was a joy of a three course meal. The location is stunning, whether you eat inside or out, the menu offers innovative twists on familiar and well-loved favourites and the execution is superb, as good as anything you would find in the best 'gastro-pubs'. The people are lovely, welcoming and friendly and they made our day extra special. We will definitely be back, and we would definitely recommend the Bear Inn to anyoine who enjoys excellent food, a warm and welcoming ambience and an overall home-from-home dining experience. 10s across the board, from all three of us!

Parked for the night in our motorhome. Evening meals are fantastic, steak pie and salmon. Excellent breakfast and very friendly staff. Highly recommended.

The Bear is a nice old traditional pub with nice beer and food. I personally find it a bit scruffy outside but that said it has wonderful views of the Derbyshire countryside.

Wonderful location. Very friendly welcoming staff and the food is really good. It's great what you are doing to revitalise this fine pub!

Booked online, not an issue. Mentioned in comments we would like a table away from children. Not because we don’t like them, just that having been there done that we just wanted a nice quiet Sunday lunch. Guess what ……… table was next to a table with a noisy toddler. So don’t bother asking. Ordered Roast Beef for both of our Sunday lunch. Have to say presentation was awful, gravy should be served in a jug separately as plate was swimming in it and tbh gravy is a personal thing to me. Having said that the roast was very tasty, although I would say the roasts and Yorkshire’s were frozen. Red Leicester on a cauliflower cheese is new to me. However, I did enjoy it and it was very tasty. After waiting an inordinate time for the sweet “pudding” menu we both ordered Bakewell tart, which was served COLD, with hot custard. WHY? It ruined what could have been a brilliant sweet, generous portion but why not mention it was cold?

Stayed over last night in the Stag room. Lovely quiet room, bed was so comfy and the decor lovely. Had a meal in the evening, the food was delicious. Starters were musroom and lamb then mains were the salmon and bear burger. Breckfast was yummy. Whole experience was relaxing and service from the lads behind the bar was great. Very friendly, welcoming and if you want a little cheeky get away then highly recommended.

A lovely little place right on the edge of the village great for walking and cycling views are amazing

Excellent! ! So pleased we chose the bear inn for our stop over stay and we will be back.!! Food lovely and fresh - we had mussels which were beautiful and a large portion. I then had salmon with the lobster bisque which was the best I’ve had and the potatoes were amazing ( I forgot to ask how they were done ) and again a big portion and well presented. All staff were very friendly and we even had a pint with the chef at the end of the night. Accommodation was very clean and decor was lovely. Overall a great experience and will deffo be back.

The evening meal was scrumptious, well done to the new management team.Very affordable prices 😀Friendly staff.

LOVELY!!! We stopped here for dinner as we were staying locally near by. Wow! The food was amazing! All freshly cooked and very tasty. The service was absolutely fantastic ..very friendly and welcoming. We had our little dog with us and they even cooked us a little chicken breast so he could have something to eat. A very pleasant meal with a cosy surround and fantastic service!! I believe it has just come under new management...but not a problem at all!! Really would recommend it! Thank you If we are in the area again we would definitely revisit. ❤️

Lovely place tucked away in the countryside. Great food and service.

The new managers are doing a great job of putting this place back on the map. Our room was lovely and clean and nicely decorated. Plenty of outdoor space for kids to enjoy as well as to sit in the peaceful countryside for a drink. We had burgers for tea which were excellent, breakfast was lovely and the staff were all great. Location is countryside but not far from amenities and for exploring places of interest. I'm definitely going back 😁

we visited here on sunday for a lovely roast, which is absolutely was, just a couple of comments, the gravy was definitely on the runny side, the group of us all like thick rich gravy which this wasn’t. That being said the mash potatoes and the cauliflower cheese was amazing 🤩 also we were disappointed to see salt and pepper in little paper packets, made it feel like a cafe which it definitely isn’t! one last thing, we all scored the roast a good 8.5 but please don’t bother with the puddings, big standard out of the freezer definitely not home made, and the cheese cake was definitely a freezer burnt tart type pudding x we did give feedback which they took onboard🥰

Lovely place. The room was really clean and comfortable. Service was so friendly and breakfast delicious.

Beautiful place... great views of surrounding countryside... polite and friendly staff... great beer... lovely food ( AMAZING full English breakfast)...Would recommend to everyone

I am not easy to impress. I believe only 7 weeks into re opening under a new owner, it is clear to see that this is already a well oiled machine. No complaints. We received incredible service, a lovely room, great food. What a delightful experience 😊

Finally got to this place, wasn't disappointed. Lovely old feel to the place, would love to visit in winter when they have all the fires going. Food delicious, we had starters of mushrooms, lamb and the halloumi, mains were salmon, burger, pie and chicken. They were all very good. Service was quick and friendly. Can't wait to go again.

Really fab accommodation. The staff were all lovely. Although limited to the burger menu on Thursday evening we decided to try it and weren't disappointed. We also had a fabulous breakfast in the morning (plenty of choice). Lovely beer garden to sit and have a drink while our 2 Yr old explored. The new management are doing a great job pointing this lovely place in the right direction. Great location for exploring and I would definitely stay again.

Went for a meal tonight and was amazing, food was great all round. The place has really been given a new lease of life and you can tell. Will definitely go back and would recommend to everyone to try it.

Really great meal and lovely staff! One of the best burgers I’ve had in a long time and all the rest in our party had equally lovely meals. Staff were wonderful and very helpful. If we were more local it would definitely become a local for us!

Great service and fabulous food, not been for many years and very glad we went

An amazing place, beautiful rooms to match the beautiful views. Stayed the night, the staff were really helpful & welcoming. The jewel in the crown was "THE BIG BEAR BREAKFAST" its the best breakfast I've had in the whole of the UK & I would know as I work in the industry & this blew me away. I will be returning on a regular basis. Well done guys.

Hi, I visited this weekend for a 1 night stay & it was brilliant. Nice clean modern rooms. Staff are really helpful. The jewel in the crown is the amazing "THE BIG BEAR BREAKFAST". This is the best cooked breakfast in the whole of the UK. food locally sourced & bacon worth dreaming about. Amazing visit, especially when the current owners have only been there for 5 weeks. Well done guys, I will be back regularly.

I cannot praise this place highly enough. The staff are so warm and friendly; they did everything possible to accommodate us. The pub is very dog friendly (although the hotel rooms aren’t). We stayed in one of two little cottages in the grounds which accept dogs. Small, compact but everything you might need. We ate lunch, dinner, dessert and breakfast at the pub and I cannot fault any of it. Piping hot, delicious, tasty and homemade. Highly recommend the Bear for a beer, a meal or an overnight stay. The views are spectacular!

Wow wow wow. Booked for a rather large party no pre order required and had a whole room to ourselves however wasn't forgotten about. Nothing was too much trouble for the 2 lads working, great personalities very friendly and welcoming an assett to the pub. I went to change my baby and on passing was advised there is no facilities for baby changing but was happy to go out of his way to show me up the stairs to the sofa area to change my son out of the way. Where the decor was really cool. The whole decor of the pub was quirky and tasteful I loved it. We were checked on, food and waiting service was promt and friendly the chicken florentine main, hollumi starter were the best dishes however all the meals were lush and the presentation especially on the puddings were just that extra mile. The little touches like offering the dogs a water bowl on entry honestly nothing was too much for them lads. All in all a fantastic visit and can't wait to return. 💓

Recently reopened. Very friendly staff, good food and a beautiful location.

What a brilliant pub. Made to feel very welcome by the staff and locals alike. Me and my Frenchie came here 4 nights on the trot and each time the beer and the food were excellent. Highly recommended

We stayed in the blossom cottage and we had a very comfortable night. Clean with all high end fittings. Top breakfast. Excellent staff, very welcoming. Will stay again.

Fantastic pub. Amazing friendly staff and excellent service. The burger night is great. Pub grub how it should be. Thank you.

Called in today for a drink and was blown away by the warm welcome. The new team are obviously working hard to get this lovely pub back up and running after a rocky few years with changes of management and sudden closures leaving customers frustrated. The Menu is currently limited while the new team are coming together, but food looks lovely - keeping it simple rather than being over ambitious is sensible. We're planning on coming back to eat soon, the burger night looked amazing! Good luck Bear cubs, lovely to see the pub back on its feet.

Wow. Amazing. We are staying on the campsite down the road and when we were looking for some good food in a pub we googled and came up with a bunch. We spoke to the campsite owner and he said try the bear inn, new management. Well I can say the previous reviews can be forgotten and the new place is beautiful. The view for a start and then you got inside and it's rustic charm and room shapes and it's full of little knucks to tuck into and the beer selection is good. We had the burger as a former owner of my own burger restaurant it was perfect. The dressing is a hidden gem on the topping. Spoke with the GM on arrival very polite and great chat. Cheers

Fantastic new management has made this a perfect place to visit with children. A delicious menu and a really nice beer garden with stunning views. Well worth a visit

Fantastic outside space and lovely views, disappointed that there was only a minimum menu, didn't try the food, but it has to be pretty special for £14.95 for a baguette. The beer, unfortunately, was not great and rather disingenuous for the bar staff, the new owner/landlord to suggest the Timothy Taylor Landlord was fine ? It's probably due to its infancy as it has only just reopened, but not a great start !

Under new management they have turned the place around! Great bit if scran! Love the work they have done to the bar!

Closed. And they even answered the phone saying they would call back

Booked to stay here tonight, 4 hour drive and the place has just shut down, no warning..left us completely in the lurch

Don't bother booking to stay at The Bear Inn as it is closed! Made a booking for a 3 night stay through an online booking agent, only to find once we had arrived the place was deserted! Luckily we managed to get the agent to sort out somewhere else to stay.

Everytime I've been, it's always been a fantastic pub. Great food, inexpensive drinks

Came here for carvery the other week for a family birthday, not much left and it was cold and horrible. Will not be returning.

Booked a table weeks in advance for our wedding anniversary. 2 hours beforehand it was cancelled without warning by email. Phoned them up and they said they weren't serving food at the moment. Massively unimpressed that they let us book and then let us down so badly. Utterly abysmal!!

This is the first time I and the dougals have been since it closed down during covid awhile ago and we are not disappointed. Massive portions, risk free meat choice and tastey sides. Will be coming back more.

We went for the Sunday carvery. Super selection of roast meats and vegetables! All tasty and tempting to overload our plates. Also, went for lovely walks in the area before and after our meal.

Sunday dinner the other weekend 5* ❤️ 😋

It's a lovely classic old pub. Friendly service , nice warm log burner, and good food. Will go again.

Lovely oldeworldy pub. Delicious food. Friendly & helpful staff. Free overnight parking for motorhomers if eating in pub.

Really disappointed. Been looking forward to eating here for months, so was excited to book a birthday meal for my partner and daughter. When we arrived we found out there was a very limited menu, this wasn't mentioned on booking. But we ordered meals regardless. The food was slow in coming and when it did arrive it was in dribs and drabs, meaning food was going cold. We waited for our chips to come for our steaks but they never arrived. My partners lasagne was burnt and stuck to the bowl. This will be our 1st and last visit.

We had a lovely stay last weekend for a night. The staff were all very friendly, helpful and accommodating and we really liked the pub and it's character. Our room was comfortable and well presented. We had dinner later on on the Saturday night after we arrived and had a pizza each which was nice. We had breakfast on the Sunday morning also which was the only thing that we found disappointing and we didn't enjoy. With my partner having over 15 years of chef experience we could tell that the scrambled egg was overcooked, the bacon was swimming in oil and the hash browns tasted like other fried foods which suggested that the oil hadn't been changed. Obviously this is a kitchen issue and not with the bear inn overall. Excluding the breakfast issue we would definitely recommend and would like to stay again.

Asked to leave cause they needed table

Hi not been for a very long time had arranged to meet up with a very good friend off mine 4 a drink and a chat 😊 food I saw coming out from the kitchen looked very nice in deed cheers everyone Brian 😀

Went for Sunday dinner with the family. Service at the bar was slow to get drinks and carvery tickets. No blinds on windows and our table was right in line with the glaring winter sun. Asked if we could move and the waitress begrudgingly let us take a table which was reserved for later so long as we left in time (which we did). She seemed annoyed more than helpful. No napkins in sight and had to request more forks as they were empty. Carvery staff were friendly and helpful though.

We stayed here for a night a week before Christmas and it was amazing. The staff couldn't do enough to make our little stay so perfect. We stayed in the Peacock room and wow it was so beautiful didn't want to leave the bed it was so comfy. The food both dinner and breakfast was great quality and made all the more enjoyable next to the roaring open fire. All staff was so welcoming and friendly especially Will. We've booked to come back on valentines day cannot wait 😊 so glad we found this place definitely will make ourselves regulars.

Fantastic place 👍 Very friendly staff , amazing location and the Sunday roast is brilliant One of the best pub and diner I’ve ever been to 10/ 10 !

Had our wedding at The Bear in December, from planning to putting our day together it couldn't have been more perfect. The food was delicious and commented on by all who attended! Wish we could redo it all again!

I,ve just been for a quick portion of chips as passing by. £4.50 for the tiniest, poorly presented portion of triple cooked chips. So dry I had to use sauce( which I don't like). Also, when I asked for further details about an advertised Burns Night event the bartender just said 'dunno, Scottish food?' I didn't expect her to necessarily know but a friendly ' I'll find out ' would help. I'm local but not returning!
