Lovely warm cosy pub with log fire going on the range. Stayed here overnight. Great room , newly painted and very clean. Warm cookies especially welcome! We had dinner and breakfast here. Top notch food and great atmosphere. Very friendly staff.

A wonderful pub for a weekend away. Warmly welcomed. Walks right from the door. We stayed 2 nights in a cosy comfortable room. We really appreciated the little touches like fair trade and eco-friendly products. The highlight though was the amazing food. Gorgeous dinners and wonderful breakfasts. Thoroughly recommend, would love to go back.

What a gem we discovered! Never been to either the Black Lion or to Butterton before. But what a charming village with the amazing ford and the sweeping views over the valley. It was snowy when we went and quite cold and squally outside, but as soon as we entered the Black Lion we were met with a warm welcome and shown to our amazing room. The room was absolutely perfect in every way. Very newly refurbished and spotlessly clean. The bed was super comfortable and there was even chilled milk in a flask and fresh chocolate cookies for a welcome cuppa. We were celebrating a birthday and Hannah had saved us the perfect table in the pub right by the roaring log fire. The menu is fantastic and we could happily have chosen anything from it. The whole Friday night atmosphere in the pub was lovely - very full of locals and visitors with an extremely happy buzz and chatter. The food was magnificent and all the staff were enthusiastic and friendly and welcoming. Our only regret was that we just had one night and could have easily stayed longer. Breakfast was equally stunning and freshly prepared, in the lovely dining room and after leaving Butterton we enjoyed a fascinating morning exploring Leek then the Roches (in the snow) before wending our way through the beautiful White Peak and back to Sheffield. It was the perfect short stay and we will most definitely be back.

Loved it - warm, friendly welcome, excellent service, log burner & open fire. This place has a great atmosphere and fantastic food. Lovely location, opposite the church, too. The perfect Peak District pub! So good we’re going back tomorrow.

A friendly greeting on entering from both the young lady behind the bar and a local enjoying a pint, we were offered a seat in front of a log fired range, most welcome on a cold February day. A good range of draught beer, Bass plus three varied local ales plus a choice of lagers and cider. There seemed to be something for everyone on the menu and the food was excellent. The presentation was smart and the flavours and cooking first rate

First time there, and I'll be back! Soon. Excellent and interesting food, with a wide range, obviously prepared with care and pride. Meat dishes cover the field (sorry!) from lamb to venison and the "Overnight roasted pork belly" with its trimmings (beautuifully soft and tender it was) : and the veg mains can include the likes of wild mushroom stroganoff, beetroot and tofu burger. Full menu available at lunchtime (not just in the evening) , as well as lighter items such as sandwiches and Scotch Eggs Decent beers, and very good attentive & caring service. It's a lovely comfortable building, pub old-style, and with the efficient Moorlands Connect bus you don't even have to drive home afterwards.

A quirky old inn with a bucket load of charm. It’s not a Premier Inn and being seriously old it has cracks and uneven stairs and gaps in the walls and ceilings but that somehow adds to its charm. Bedroom was comfortable with a decent en-suite but the real win (apart from its peaceful location) is the quality of the food. Ok it’s not fast food but if you like well cooked and presented food there’s a lot to like. There is plenty of locally sourced seasonal produce and a first rate breakfast as well. Loved it.

Lovely traditional pub with warm welcome. Large car park. Good choice on menu - we had the pork belly and fish and chips . Good portion , well presented and tasted delicious. I succumbed to the apple & raspberry crumble & custard to follow which was scrummy. Several small rooms off main bar all displaying interesting historic items . Loo nice and clean .

What a wonderful pub in a picture postcard location. Even when phoning ahead the lady was super friendly (you can just tell can’t you when it’s going to be good?) My wife and I (and 3 labradors lol) received a very welcome upon arrival also. We sat near the fire and the wine and real ale was top drawer. The food was to die for, and the chef is clearly very talented and puts everything into each dish. The staff were incredibly attentive throughout. I couldn’t recommend this place enough and hope to return. Thank you everyone, you deserve nothing but success.

What a gem of a find!! A delightful pub in a delightful village in the Peak District. We went on a spectacular walk to Thor's cave beforehand which wasn't far away. The Sunday lunch was delicious and generous portions, cooked to perfection. We couldn't fit in pudding, but they sounded wonderful. Our children loved the darts and pool table. Great that dogs are welcome too. Would highly recommend.

Since our first visit two years ago, my partner and I have visited several times. Today we had the best lunch there. Gorgeous mini bread loaf with caramelised onion butter was amazing as were the sausage roll and Moroccan croquette. The festive themed turkey main dish was exceptional.

My wife and I stayed overnight at the Black Lion Inn on the 7th. The owners and staff are very friendly and provide exceptional service. Our room was very comfortable and immaculately clean. The food was delicious, locally sourced and home grown. I thoroughly enjoyed the locally sourced organic venison with home grown chard. And my wife's steak was perfectly cooked. There was a fine range of beers and wine all well priced. For breakfast we chose the full English which included local sausage and home grown tomatoes. It was tasty and set us up for the day. Next time we visit the White Peak we will stay there again!
