The Cock Pub & Kitchen in High Peak

Went for lunch with my family on Wednesday & it was all perfect again. The hot roast beef muffin was delicious & so tender.

Excellent service and food was wonderful. Lovely staff, all very friendly and helpful.

Very good very friendly and welcoming staff

Extensive menu including veggie options, good beer and really friendly service! Best pub meal we have had for a long time

We stopped here for lunch on the way to Manchester. I had the creamy mushrooms starter which was delicious and my husband had the fish sandwich which was HUGE and he really enjoyed it.

Nicely furnished pub serving food and has a large outdoor area

Had a nice pint of Veltin. Came back here because the last time we came it had an outside pizza oven, unfortunately this is no longer the case. Update... In reply to the owner, I gave a 4 for service because it was good, and 3 for atmosphere because the outside part was fairly empty, I've not given score for food, or would you like me to review the £1.40 crisps that we had?? Maybe I should have ordered some frozen oven chips for £4.75, we wanted to eat, but didn't fancy anything on the Menu. I'd say to you, if you don't like people leaving reviews, change your profession pal. Why are cheap frozen chips £4.75? 2nd update. I love it, any potential customer wanting to visit can see what the landlord is like if they don't get a perfect review 😀. Don't cry to me because of how trust pilot averages the scores. I gave a 4 and a 3, why are you getting your pants in a twist with me? because I gave no score for food when I didnt eat? Not surprising the place was quiet when you have an attitude like you have shown. Maybe go down to the Goyt Inn and see how a landlord behaves. Oh and it is fact, there was no atmosphere as it was quite and the service was good. I really am struggling to see why you have behaved like you have, speak with trust pilot about how they work the averages out if a service hasn't been marked. Shi thi....

A great pub all round and dog freindly

Steak n ale pie and smothered Italian chicken both tasty dishes.

Great beef sandwich loved the chips

Super lovely, the Landlord was so patient with us when our guests were late and stuck in traffic. We were told that the kitchen was closed but they still managed to serve as the most incredible meals and to top it all off they served the champagne in nucleated embossed glasses which might mean nothing to but to an ex pub landlady is the most incredible deal! And then to seal the deal they gave us one to leave with! Highly recommend this fab local!

Food was excellent. Customer service was brilliant. When a couple of our party mentioned their steak not being done as requested. It was changed without qibbling which seems rare these days. I also think it is a comfortable family pub.

Stopped for lunch on the off chance. Varied menu and the options we chose were tasty and well presented. E.g. The trio of sausages were a good size and not fatty and came with a good selection of vegetables that were cooked just right. Staff were very happy and knowledgeable about the menu and gave a good service.

Such a warm welcome and a cosy experience with decent prices.

the food was absolutely delicious and the service was brilliant. All staff were welcoming, friendly and couldn’t do enough for you. I would 100% recommend to anybody looking for a lovely little pub with homestyle cooking. 10/10 already cant wait to go back

Ordered halloumi fries and they brought out cheap mozzarella sticks. Should have said something in hindsight. The back garden is nice. I would visit here again but only for a drink.

I follow a few Facebook pages for gluten free food (Coeliacs eat out UK) this place was on there as a recommendation. Booked for dinner, plenty options available, ordered fish and chips which was delicious! Good size portions so really enjoyed it... No room for dessert! Pub was a little quiet but as it was a Tuesday so not surprising, but guaranteed a table. There is outdoor space too which I imagine is lovely on sunny days. Staff are very friendly, especially Maddie, she was so lovely, such a sunny disposition! Thank you Maddie for making us feel so welcome. 😊

I don't take the time to leave many reviews yet felt I had to after visiting this lovely pub yesterday. Myself and my son were kindly taken out by my parents after a recommendation. The staff were all very polite snd helpful when explaining some of the courses, wide range of choice on the menu, food was gorgeous, great portions and price very reasonable. My folks had the trio of sausages, I had the hot roast sandwich and my son had the BBQ chicken wrap, all delicious. Would defo recommend for all the family, will defo be going back

Food and service excellent, staff very pleasant and friendly. Dog friendly also.

Amazing toffee waffle, lovey staff great atmosphere.

This is our usual haunt when we travel to Whaley to meet friends. We also often pop in for a few before heading to our favourite curry house just a little further up the road. The new management have worked wonders with this place more recently and it’s always nicely busy with a great atmosphere and a warm welcome. Prices are similar to most of the pubs near me in Marple but a lot cheaper than Town. Food is also available and its tasty and affordable. In Winter you have the roaring fire and in Summer you have the advantage of a spacious outside seating area which we made use of last time we were in celebrating my birthday and the sun actually made an appearance too. Service is good with a bit of banter and a smile. Great pub, so good to see it doing so well again. We’ll be in again at weekend. Cheers all 🥂

Excellent dog friendly village pub. Nice food, nice drink and nice staff.

Called for lunch on our way home from Manchester, nice pup, good parking, friendly helpful staff, the food was nice but portions are on the smaller side of small, we called at a chippy in Buxton as my husband was still hungry

Always dropped by here at intervals with my family, always been lovely and welcoming, but lately it seems what was already a good place to visit is even better still and felt compelled to say as much on Google. It is clean both inside and out Staff are always pleasant It comfortably balances between Pub Eatery and restaurant atmosphere . Welcoming to families.......and also dogs (even having doggy treats/meals available). Very accommodating for Gluten Free. The food is very very tasty. Menu offers a good choice. Kids menu has plenty of choice, including gluten free. many compliments to the chef and those that are running and operating and employed at this very lovely establishment. It's always a joy treating the wife and kids to a meal here. Thank you

Very friendly pub with nice selection of cask ale and good pub food.

Lovely friendly pub serving excellent food at a very good price. I am a single older lady who called in today and was made very welcome. My roast beef followed by crumble were both yummy. Many thanks.

Restaurant/pub is in a lovely village and close by a fabulous walk along the canal foot path. Food is excellent and very reasonably priced. Service was the best you could wish for. We will certainly make the trip again to enjoy a fab meal. Thanks to the staff for making the meal experience a great one 5 star to your all.

Can not fault today's visit with my mum. Impeccable service from very friendly staff 👌 I had the steak which was to die for - melt in the mouth or what!! Mum's pie went down well also and was full to the brim! Portions were spot on as well, not too little but not overwhelming. Will 100% be back 😁

Had a wonderful lunch here, we all opted for the roast dinner a choice of beef or gammon, both were exceptional. I had the ginger sponge for dessert and it was as light as a feather. The staff were all friendly and welcoming making our visit really memorable.

Ok but bar staff dont listen room for improvement. But a nice pub.

Lovely traditional pub with a good range of hand pump beer and excellent home cooked food. Everything we had for lunch was tasty and nicely presented. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Great place

Had another wonderful meal here ..food always tasty and hot staff always polite and considerate and also very welcoming cant fault food or staff would highly recommend .

One of the best pubs in the area, we drive from Buxton to drink and eat here. Good selection of wines and great food.

Went here for lunch with family and friends following my mums funeral ..it had been snowing but it was so cosy inside .there were 10 of us and we were met with kind and sympathetic staff . The food was lovely ..served promptly and served hot ..nothingvwas too much trouble esp as one of our guests had a 1 month old baby . Would highly recommend this venue and have returned several times since each time a great experience .

Not good food at all , wine way over priced, avoid food and wine

Very friendly. Good menu choice. Could cope with my garlic allergy. Dog friendly. Nice food well presented and helpful staff.

Called in from Stockport today, had a 12.95 full breakfast. I have to tell it as it is it was poss the worst i have ever bought . Mushrooms cut wafer thin bacon that well done i could snap it one egg not cooked enough the other one hard bulked up with three hash browns completely overpriced & tasteless sorry to put this on here but it is my feeling of dissatisfaction very dissapointing after looking forward.

Nice lunch with my kids. Congratulations

Lovely pub and good food I highly recommend if in the area.

Great service Good atmosphere Food and drinks excellent

Good straight forward food expertly cooked. Very tender steak and the chips were crisp on the outside but not dry. Generous portions.

Highly recommend - friendly helpful staff pretty interior and great food

Nice pub serving Robinsons ales, just at the side of the main road through Whaley Bridge. Outdoor patio is mostly covered with just a few full sun barrel tables, providing a choice of outdoor seating. A bike rack by the car park and railings by the patio make it welcoming to cyclists too.

Phenomenal!!! So pleased we passed by this pub on the way home, the service was amazing and the food was delicious, home cooked and generous! Great veggie and vegan choices and sooo many gluten free options, most of the dishes looked like they could be done GF. Veggie burger and roast beef sandwiches both 10/10. We felt so comfortable and looked after, thank you Mike for being so passionate about the menu and chatting to us, as well as for my birthday dessert! We will definitely be back ☺️

Great pub, friendly staff and an array of specials and popular dishes. Had the ham sandwich which was 5*. Would recommend and they have non-alcoholic beers which is a bonus

Very pleasant - we had a few drinks after a 11 mile walk

Lovely pub with excellent food and beer! Friendly staff and nice atmosphere.

I have never had a hot beef sandwich like this ever..blew my mind. The place is always clean great area and in the summer has a great garden

Lovely food in a great pub. Will certainly be back.

Popped in here on the off chance as we were in Buxton and decided to go for a drive before attending the Opera house. Glad we did. Although food wasnt being served for another 45mins we enjoyed a drink beforehand. Friendly staff, great food and reasonable price. Probablt worth booking at busy times.

Great service and atmosphere. Didn't eat this time hence no food review. Great venue for gigs which is when we visited last!

A gem of a find. Warm friendly atmosphere with excellent service and delicious scampi from the special board.

Brilliant meal on Sunday for my 80th birthday. The staff were friendly and attentive and the food was fantastic. They managed to cater for a last minute addition with an already full pub and 21 of us. The food was all warm, fresh and delicious. Couldn’t recommend enough.

Love coming here the staff and food is so lovely xx

Fantastic Sunday lunch, excellent food, generous portions, superb friendly staff that make you welcome, love that is is dog friendly. This is a must do.

Visited this gem on a cloudy early spring day, and it was exactly what my partner and I needed. The cozy atmosphere, accentuated by a warm, real fireplace, made us feel right at home. The acoustic music playing in the background was the cherry on top - just loud enough to enjoy, yet soft enough to not interrupt our conversations. What really set this place apart, though, was the staff. Their friendliness and attentive service truly made our experience unforgettable. We're already looking forward to our next visit when we're back in town. A must-visit for anyone looking for a relaxing time with great company.

Highly recommend, great service , great food

A very relaxing dog friendly country style pub with great food and well kept ales. Staff all very friendly and always nice to get a seat near the fire.

The best Sunday roast! I wouldn’t usually order beef as it can be tough and over cooked; this brisket was absolutely divine and perfectly cooked. Tender and tasty…..and such generous portions - we will be back soon. Thanks to John, Mike and the Team 🌟

Great local pub, great warm welcoming staff who were more than helpful & the food was delicious with very generous portions. Deserts were beautiful. All round cracking pub and would definitely be visiting again if in the area

Ten hungry walkers arrived by reservation after a tour of Whaley Bridge. An excellent lunch was enjoyed by all. Particular care was taken to accomodate the dietary requirements of one of our group. Altogether a most satisfactory experience. Thank you.

This was a last minute decision as we decided to eat at the shady oak near by and wait for 90 minutes for food so we left ! Glad we did as the service and food was 5 star highly recommend !thank you for turning around our Saturday afternoon!

Beyond expectations. We were recommended to come here but it exceeded everything we expected. Brilliant service and outstanding food. Best evening ever ❤️

Just had a brilliant visit , with 18 friends. The food, without exception, was superb. Served hot and simultaneously. The staff were so friendly and helpful. We were very spoilt.

EDIT - went for food and it was so so nice, amazing quality. it’s not cheap but most places are these days so won’t complain since it’s good food mac and cheese could’ve been cooked more as it wasn’t crispy on the top but will defo be back. sunday menu was good no chicken option on the sunday dinner tho. very nice pub

Food was excellent, service was also brilliant. Staff were friendly and helpful. Will definitely be back

Was a birthday meal for my husband. Food, service was amazing. Will definitely be going back to try something else on the menu.

Delicious food, friendly staff and dog friendly - we are looking forward to coming back!!

All went well for the first time there.food a d drinks very good nothing seemed to much trouble. Well done. And thank.

Had a brilliant night on New Years Eve. Big thank you to John , Jan and all the staff , food and service second to none with great atmosphere to top it off . I’m sure 2024 will be a great year for the pub in the hands John & Janet . Well done and Thank you Jon & Nikki

Tiny car park, kids meal sausages and nuggets are fried rather than grilled not exactly the healthy way if doing things. Nice pub with good selection of robbys beers but wouldn't rush back for food

We went for a family gathering. The staff managed admirably and the food was fantastic Service was really good.

Menu fairy basic but good value for money and a fabulous atmosphere! A proper old-school community pub! Would definitely recommend!

We booked a Christmas dinner for a group of 19 of us. The food was incredibly good. In fact I would probably say that it was the best Christmas dinner I have ever had. And mine was the vegetarian option. Also the portions were huge. There was a DJ and Again I haven’t enjoyed a disco dance as much for a long time. The staff are so kind and helpful. They really have made this a wonderful venue and all the members of women of Whaley are very grateful but we’ve got such a good venue in our town.

We attended for the ladies dog walking friends Christmas (dog free) treat. The food was lovely, as always, we enjoyed a lovely visit from the Whaley Bridge Church's choir who serenaded us with Carol's which we really enjoyed and added to the evening. The service was excellent. We done to all the staff, hope you have a lovely Christmas. Looking forward to seeing you again very soon

Are 4th visit here, the pub was decorated lovely, we booked on the Saturday for sunday lunch. even though they had a party of over 40 in the service was excellent the food also big thank-you to all of you

Great place and excellent meal. We had the hot beef on a roll with chips and gravy 5 stars

Friendly and welcoming atmosphere with lovely Christmas decorations and festive music. Excellent menu choice including several vegetarian options. Table service prompt and attentive delivered by smiling and helpful waiter. Would definitely recommend

Lovely food, lovely staff and fantastic atmosphere. My husband and I went with my children and parents in law for my birthday meal. The staff were really attentive and fantastic with the children. The food was 10/10. Highly recommend this place. We will definitely be back 😊

Lovely decor and furnishings, set in a charming old building. Such a shame then that when we went in for a meal on a Sunday at just after 5pm, seeing that the pub's Google Business listing stated its kitchen was open till 6pm, we were told they stop serving food at 5pm. Very disappointing.

Great place Great food Great prices

Nice cosy pub, didn't eat but food looked great

Excellent tasty food. Very nice meal indeed. Served in a great pub atmosphere, by attentive staff. Good wine as well.

Great pub. Lovely atmosphere with friendly helpful staff. They dealt very well with a large group (14). Everybody enjoyed their food - greats choice for gf. Really good evening had by all.

Went up after a recommendation from a friend and was well worth the drive. The staff were lovely. The food was fab and the pub in general was a really nice cosy , friendly place. We are both absolutely stuffed now 😊👍

Just called in for a drink. Lots of people eating. Lovely atmosphere and very friendly place.

Very good service and food 👌 great

A very relaxing pub for a drink and a meal. Friendly and welcoming staff. Great choice of local beers and the usuals. We had a meal which was excellent quality and generous in size. Very well prepared and presented which tasted fantastic. It’s a shame we only came here on our last night in the area. We could not give it 6 stars.

Great food. Friendly welcoming bar staff. Good atmosphere.

Really enjoyed the chef's homemade vegetarian chilli (GF). Lovely, warm atmosphere (friendly and welcoming and temperature, cosy). Bike racks nearby useful when had popped in earlier for tea (and soy milk). Thank you.

Lovely food. Great staff. Lamb shank was beautiful and the Pecan Tart was excellent. Will call in again if passing.

Visited for the first time last night for a family meal (7 of us) and received an incredibly friendly welcome and attentive service throughout our evening. Our meals were excellent in terms of being piping hot and superbly cooked. The menu range was very good and supplemented by a selection of Robinson’s beers (and other brews) which were spot on. We will certainly return when next in the area and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a really friendly pub with great beer and excellent food!

Great food & service, looks like it’s been refurbished recently too

Really friendly staff, lovely food.

A large group of us were celebrating my 50th birthday, and some had also done Ranger Ultras High Peak 100km race. We went in very hungry and left very satisfied. As it was a large group, we had pre booked, and the team could not do enough for us. I absolutely cannot wait to visit Whaley Bridge again to eat and drink at The Cock.

Great pub in the centre of Whaley Bridge. Proper delicious home cooked pub food. Service was excellent, staff friendly and very welcoming to us and our dog. Highly recommended.

Lovely, helpful, friendly staff. Great menu, lovely food, great atmosphere and a good choice of ales

Lovely Sunday lunch would definitely recommend

Just popped in for a quick drink, lovely atmosphere and really nice staff.

Loved it. Fantastic food and super friendly staff.would highly recommend and they welcomed our 2 well behaved beagles too.
