Food lovely, staff attentive and very pleasant surroundings. Very busy tonight

The food was excellent, as was the service

My daughter had her wedding reception here. It was made very special for her, her new husband, and their guests. The service and food were excellent.

A must try place! Good food and service!

Great meals, well cooked and delicious. Staff really friendly.

This pub/ restaurant is amazing, its my favourite place for food in Derbyshire, lovely food every time, lovely atmosphere and the staff are really nice and always very helpful

My friend and I had a lovely meal. Everyone was pleasant and helpful. We really enjoyed our meals and we weren't rushed to move on. A lovely experience of which we will definitely go again.👍

We live local and have only recently visited here. Been a couple of times in the past month and both have been really positive experiences. Great value for money, good portion sizes, nice outdoor seating area and the Sunday roast yorkshires are amazing!

Fantastic as always never had a bad meal there

Lovely food and friendly staff a great friendly 🍻 a good end to my day out.Big thank you denby lodge xx

Nice pub. Decent parking. Good two for £15 meal deal. Very impressed with the value of the vegetarian lasagne. I had fish and chips which was fine. Seemed to be lots of people going in on a Friday afternoon but the place is pretty big and it didn't seem busy at all once inside. Didn't have to book and got a table no problem.

Went for Sunday Roast only to find it finished at 3.00 doesn't say that on there website very misleading

Lovely lunchtime dining experience.

Food ok but choice of drinks for drivers pathetic. No low alcohol/alcohol free cider Only one low alcohol beer Only sugar free soft drinks.

Couldn’t fault it. Lovely excellent value meal.

Excellent quality food, piping hot and very tasty.

Superb food, reasonably priced and nice atmosphere.

Lovely place, always serves nice food and very welcoming

The food is very good, and the staff are very efficient.

Starter a bit overcooked but the mains made up for it..... Will have to have a mains & sweet next time! 😂

Not as good as it was on previous visits. Burger was greasy chips were not good. Greasy snd soggy. I had the wrap Yorkshire pudding beef wrap the bits that came.off the carving off the beef joint????. Always had a good experience here until today

Lovely lunch, we had baguettes and chips. Very tasty 😋

Lunch with friend, lovely atmosphere, we had £15 for 2 menu, lots of choice, food excellent. I had Gammon my friend had Katsu Chicken, then we dessert. Beautifully presented and excellent .

Bit of a last minute thing, needed to be child, dog and coeliac friendly, delivered on all counts! Food and staff were great. Will definitely visit again if we're back in the area.

Went there for a birthday meal with 19 of us, pre ordered food as requested by the staff... Food banging and service even better! No mistakes and food came at decent intervals. Many thanks again, would deffo return.

We love our local pubs and you can't get more top quality pub gub in our area than the Denby Lodge. Always consistently good quality food at affordable prices.

Great first visit, clean, service Great staff Great, food perfect, thank you. We will visit again.

Friendly staff, lovely atmosphere and beautiful food.

Ate here for the first time in a few years. Food was reasonably priced, staff was friendly and overall good experience

We went to the Denby Lodge for an 18th birthday party for our daughter. It was for a party of 16. We sat on a large table all together with plenty of room. The food and drink was superb and at reasonable prices too. The service was exceptional with all food served promptly to the whole table. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We will definitely go back. Thanks for a great evening!

Been a few times now whilst in Aberdeen. Last visit was poor. Toilets a mess, hadn't been check for nearly 5 hours (ex spoons employee, I checked the sheet). Came back to fi d dri k gone but plates not cleared and weren't for ages either.

Excellent meals at a good price M to F offers 2 meals for £15

Our first visit to Denby Lodge and we'll definitely be returning. Food was lovely, service was very attentive and Christmas decor was very pretty.

Good solid Roast dinner , good size portion , will go again

Food was hot (Fish & Chips) although the Lamb was a bit 'tough'.

Decent pub grub - nothing fancy but cooked well. Service and staff were excellent. Was a bit quiet for a Saturday tea time.

Lovely staff, place and food, dog friendly in the bar area too

Very nice meal, the steak we ordered was cooked to perfection 😋👍🙂

Went for Sunday lunch service was very quick nothing was too much trouble ,price was very reasonable

Very nice food & big portions, good friendly service & staff. Definitely worth a visit.

Sirloin Steak was cooked perfectly. Waiting times slighlty longer than expected. Will be vising again

Excellent food excellent service I would highly recommend this place

I visit here regularly as it's a nice 45-minute walk to get there after a day stuck looking at a computer screen. Very nice place, a lovely calm atmosphere. I'd visit anytime.

What a thoroughly lovely place. The decor is modern and very appealing. Everywhere was clean and tidy. The staff was really friendly and pleasant, and the Manager (?) welcomed us and chatted with us about our baby. The choice of food was good, and we chose from the " 2 meals for £15 " deal. When it arrived, it was really piping hot, well-cooked, and presented nicely. Desserts were gorgeous, too. We'll definitely go again soon.

A really enjoyable food at a very reasonable price, a lovely catch up with friends in a nice relaxed atmosphere

Awful. Really bad. Surly staff is one thing, but the food was also dire. Mine was genuinely inedible! It has been a very long time since I have left food. The steak is cut straight from a shoe, the rest just seemed to be badly reheated frozen stuff. It's what used to be called 'meal in a basket' bar food decades ago. Very limited choice of beer. Will definitely not recommend or return.

Great food and service was excellent. The lodge burger was beautiful. Definitely will be visiting again.

Great place for Sunday Lunch. Roast Beef dinner amazing value.

Rude staff tried clearing away meals that we re still being eaten, food was not hot and very bland. When ordering sweets we were made to feel we we re putting them out no manners from older lady serving and taking our order felt we were putting her out

Lovely food at the Denby Lodge. We all had a very nice meal there 😋 and would recommend that you try it out. 😊

Good food. Lovely atmosphere. Friendly and helpful staff. We shall definitely return. And the thing that's very important for me ...comfy chairs.

We walked in and the two staff behind the bar ignored us. Eventually we were acknowledged and we asked if we could have a table for lunch - very bad atmosphere and was shown rudely to a table. It was so bad that we didn't feel welcome and so we left. Have been many times and never had an experience like this. We won't be going back.

Excellent menu. Good hot food and portion size. Lovely surroundings and atmosphere. Speedy friendly service. Would dine here again.

Ate off the 2 for 15 menu cheap and cheerful would recomend for pub grub

Food lovely, service perfect and overall good value. Second time visited and I’m still impressed. Had the 2 for £15 menu!

We came to love Denby Lodge as our place for a date night and over the last two years have visited weekly, also celebrated with birthdays with family members, today's vist was a shock that's all I can say. We ordered the same as usual two sizzlers one steak one chicken mine came out first it didn't sizzlel, but it never happened before! In all the time we have attended, I touched the metal plate it was hot but not as it should be(two weeks prior I did thus by accident and rightly so got a blister) not a problem lesson learned. I informed the person serving us as my wife's was delivered as it should be. I asked for it to go back and informed this person I don't want anything else... never asked for a refund and proceeded to eat the chips. The person who served me brought the refund back, and then proceeded to inform me heres you refund your meal was hot you never tried it we won't be serving you again. I did say it wasn't sizzering as advertised the person said that is was when it was placed on the plate. I informed our server how frequently we vist the response was I know we won't serve you again. We then left in disgust without eating our meals, in all the years we have dined out we have never been treated in such a manner like this.

Great place for a drink and a meal ,the steak was just right

Took my mum for the 2 meals for £15 offer, as she really loves the small Beer battered fish and chips. She can't eat much because of health conditions and age They said there wasn't any small fish left so she would have to order the Large fish at £12:50. So our bill for food came to £21 instead of £15. I said cut the fish in half but thet said they couldn't. We go there alot so was disappointed they couldn't accommodate a pensioner who wanted a small fish.

Lovely meal with good selection and great staff.

Had a delicious meal, all the staff were lovely, helpful and polite, will definitely be eating here again.

Beautiful pub, the decor was lovely. The staff were welcoming and attentive. The food was really nice and well presented. I noticed the hygiene within the building was very good also. The venue is definitely for all ages and I felt I was very welcome there. I would definitely recommend this pub/restaurant.

Hadn't been since Covid but lovely changes to the place. The food and the staff were excellent. Lovely steak cooked exactly how I like it

We went on a spur of the moment meal out. Pub and restaurant has a lovely decor but as soon as you walk in it's full of young staff who just talk amongst themselves and clearly don't really want to be there. There is no atmosphere and almost empty which speaks for itself. The drink order was wrong as the server was too busy talking. The food was nice a bit overpriced but enjoyable. The service and whole ambience let's it down badly. This could be a jewel in the crown but needs a staff and management overhaul and some serious changes otherwise like the neighbouring Bulls Head it will soon be shut

On Monday I telephoned to book a table for lunch for Tuesday and requested that we sit at our usual table (13). I was told that this was OK but we we arrived someone else was sitting at our table. No explanation from the staff. The restaurant had run out of the pumped beer. My wife ordered tachos as a main course. It was a very small serving. Finally the restaurant would not accept my Amex card. Four things wrong on one visit makes me want to avoid this place.

Good prompt service, food nice. We had a family gathering of cousins which doesn't happen often but really enjoyed our time togther

Nice pub, good value for money on the food!

My partner s lamb was lovely. I opted for the beef which was extremely tough. These were the Sunday roast options.

I've never been here before, parking was no drama, big car park, the food was average, the service was ok, would I come back, more than likely not, there are much better places locally to visit but never say never.

Not a bad pub , decent food and service at a reasonable price . The 2 for £15 has plenty of options that are very nice . Needs an alcohol free beer on draft for us drivers who would enjoy a beer or two with our meal but other than that no complaints

Unbelievably fast service! We visited at a very quiet time, but I still have no idea how they managed to get our orders out so quick. The food was fantastic too so they definitely didn't skimp on the quality to up the speed! A huge recommendation if you're in the area

Had a lovely meal staff very nice will be returning

Lunch time 2for £15 meals. Excellent food & not small portions. Quite busy for a lunch time. Will definitely return.

Had a family get together for my 60th birthday and there was 25 of us. Spoke to Sally to book it and we pre ordered starters and mains. The service was great. Food was served quickly and was fresh and hot on arrival. Between us we had a varied choice of the menu and it was clean plates all round. Thank you to the staff and chef for making my birthday such a lovely occasion. Can highly recommend.

Great food and atmosphere. Good menu at affordable prices and attentative friendly staff.

Lovely meal with a good verity on the menu. Friendly staff that look after their guests very well. Shame there isn't more steak options, Denby Lodge used to be famous for it's crazy steak nights

Delicious food clean place polite hard working staff

Lovely lasagne the mrs had mushrooms with stilton cheese sauce

My wife and I dined here with another couple as we all wanted to try the 2 dine for £15 menu. I was very skeptical about how good the food quality would be for such an incredible price point, but the food turned out to be extremely good and not just £7.50 a meal good, but some of the best fish and chips I've ever had in any pub good! DO NOT be put off by the price thinking it will be subpar in quality, as the food we were all served was absolutely fantastic and a credit to the pub they they can achieve this! In fact the menu does the pub a disservice as it reads 'small fish and chips' on the menu and it's anything but! as it's a proper plate full and a big fish served, so I remove the word small altogether. We all had puddings and coffees afterwards and again they were excellent, served with plenty of custard and the lattes served hot. The staff were excellent, very friendly and genuinely putting effort into giving their customers the best service. It's no surprise I can't recommend enough trying the 2 dine for £15 menu and I'll definitely be back to sample more of the menu. I just wish the pub was closer to where I live so I could visit more often!

I had salmon with asparagus and New potatoes it was probably the best salmon dish I have had for a long time 4 stars

Steaks and food is reasonably priced. They sometimes have offers on food at certain times. Bar area is dog friendly.

Lovely pub. Friendly efficient staff and good food and drink. Enjoyed our visit on a sad occasion.

Really nice Christmas lunch all hot and served with a smile, the staff worked hard looked after our party really well. Returned end of April, still the same standard, but being there near closing time a bit disappointing that staff were vacuuming the carpets and other cleaning jobs / prep for next day while we were still eating. Leaves you feeling railroaded and rushed not what you want when you're eating and have just spent best part of £30 a head on food and drinks.

Went today to celebrate my dad's birthday. Traditional pub. Efficient service. Sirloin steak cooked to perfection. Good ambience. Thank you for a memorable day.

Polite and friendly staff. Decent food.

Beautiful braised beef meal with amazingly tasty gravy, mash and veg!

Beautiful place we nip in on the dog walk for quick half .... also food is lovely nice staff

Food excellent and reasonably priced, staff nice a courteous happily go back again.

We love this place the mix grill is amazing , staff are lovely , all round lovley place to go we just keep coming back ❤️

First visit here, overall very well run, service and food was great. Will be back!

Well known for it's micro brewery. Only one cask ale on when we visited, and it was not one of their own! Food was ok, but nothing to tempt us back.

Standard pub grub. Charged for water on our last family visit, which was disappointing.

The 2 for £15 (at certain times) is excellent value

Absolutely lovely place not been for 30 years but what a clean smart place great looking eating areas, the food and service was exemplary well done to the staff booking recommended but I turned up and found a table no problem food is A1,sorry for the ketchup and mayo lol

We went last night and Disabled access was difficult to get in to due to the doors being partly locked with no help from staff and when we got in there were babies high chairs blocking the door which is a fire exit risk and staff just watched us struggle to get past them also the disabled toilet acsess was blocked and lights where off so could not access without asking and that should be keped accessible at all times just like the regular toilet's are other than that the food was spot on.

Visited today.enjoyed lovely meal. Staff and service left something to be desired though. Girl behind bar complaining about what she still had to do. Wanted to order dessert and was totally ignored. After quite some Time we paid our bill and left. No thank you and good bye or hope your enjoyed your meal. Think the waiting onstaff need some training. No idea how tolook after customers. They were not rude but lacked any knowledge on customer service. Such ashame when food was very nice.lost money on deserts and more drinks. If service continues like this place will be even more empty at what should be Prime time for people to dine out. Disappointing o

Great value for money, Great service, Great Place
