We have been twice recently with different groups of friends and both times the meals were great - large portions and very good value for money. Can seem a bit noisy but that's to be expected at this time of year

Lovely Christmas lunch. It’s been years since I have been here. It was the nicest Christmas lunch we had all eaten. Even the sprouts were lovely and I hate sprouts. The staff were lovely. It was busy and there was a nice atmosphere. Tree decorated beautifully, comfy seats and a roaring fire. What more could you want. Thank you

I recently visited The Dog at Pentrich, expecting a pleasant meal, but the experience was far from it. Throughout the entire dinner, a group of clearly intoxicated locals crowded the bar, swearing loudly and creating a disruptive atmosphere. What made it worse was when we raised our concerns with the waitress, who merely shrugged it off, stating, “They’re regulars.” This response was unacceptable—regulars or not, no one should have to endure such behavior while dining. The lack of attention to basic customer service ruined what could have been a nice evening. I won’t be returning, or be a ‘regular’ myself

Went here for my Daughters birthday with the clan. Staff were phonominal, very attentive, pub looks amazing, Mixed reviews on the food, the fish was very oily and unfortunately tated like oil rather than fish and i love a good crispy battered fish unfortunately i didn't get this, the pie and the steak were very nice as I was told and the [Dog] burgers were average..onion rings were mushy. Overall a little over priced for the food served up. But the setting was great. Was an experience but don't think I'll be rushing back any time soon.

This pub is an absolute gem. We were a ‘walk in’ and were met by a lovely waitress called Izzy. She made us feel really comfortable and allowed us lots of time to order. The food was fabulous- a chicken Caesar salad and a halloumi burger. We were allowed to stay and chat for ages and not made to feel as though we were in the way. We will definitely be returning and a massive thank you to Izzy for making our evening so special.

First visit in a while and disappointed. Table booked mid week for 6.45. Table ready but told four of the main meals had sold out which narrowed the choice a little. Ordered starters to be then told one had sold out. Service of food very slow but checked on drinks every two minutes. asked for garlic mayo to go with chicken wings starter as no dips or sauces to be told only normal mayo available. Chips looked great but meal pretty average!

Exactly 1 year since Jane and Adam left we sampled a Sunday dinner. Already impressed with their weekday menu, we hadn’t yet tried the Sunday lunch. It was really really good. The roast potatoes were possibly the best we’ve ever had in a pub! A lovely silverside of beef and all the trimmings. The staff although relatively new to the trade, make up for it with enthusiasm and attention. It’s rapidly becoming another home from home and a lovely place to spend time.

So good to see the ‘dog’ open again, it’s been missed. The real change, however, has been the focus on customer service. Under the previous management the customers were treated as a hindrance (we stopped going) now under the current management you feel extremely welcome. We visited twice over the Christmas period, once for drinks and once for food. Both visits were extremely enjoyable. A great atmosphere and cosy pub for drinks. Regarding the food visit I think they have got this right. A good ‘pub menu’, reasonably priced, but the quality was superb. I had rump steak, medium rare, not a common choice for me as it’s so easy to get wrong so I don’t always trust places to get it right. But get it right they did! Cooked to perfection with proper chips (piping hot) and onion rings. Credit to the new people, keep it going.

Upon arrival the car park was full to capacity, with more people arriving by the minute. Despite having booked weeks in advance, the restaurant had no record of our reservation, despite this and being very busy a table was found and orders taken. The food took a long time to arrive and was in fairness pretty good. Servers were very busy and it was hard to get their attention, and near impossible to get to the bar, so we went without an additional drink. We also decided against a desert simply because it was getting very late and the waiting time was likely to be long even if we could get a servers attention. The venue was deafeningly noisy throughout my visit, to a point where it was impossible to hold a conversation without shouting. The pub has been nicely refurbished, the staff are friendly, the food is good. Unfortunately they try to cram too many people in and it makes for an unpleasant experience. I will not be going back.

First time visit for Sunday lunch at The Dog. Absolutely loved it. Good choice of roasts served with plenty of beautifully cooked veg. Go hungry as portion size is large & I by no means have a small appetite. Good value for money in my opinion, priced at £25 for two courses. Service was good, recommend booking. Easy to find on the main road through Pentrich village with its own large car park. Outdoor seating is available as well which is perfect on a sunny day. Highly recommended, will definitely be back!

Super Covid times Friday Treat. What a pleasure, super evening meal from this favourite local pub. The food may have been ‘take away’ but was a good as their usual service.

We last visited ‘The Dog’ in the pretty Derbyshire village of Pentrich in August 2018. My review then wasn’t particularly complimentary; whilst the food was of a good standard, the service was abysmal - inattentive, dismissive, and lacking warmth and customer care. We visited again in July 2020. It was our first ‘dine-in’ experience since pandemic lockdown restrictions were eased, and we were extremely nervous about venturing into a restaurant. However, we were very pleased with the care that all diners were given, as well as the high quality food we enjoyed.Firstly, all requirements relating to inside dining and social distancing were in place; we had to wait at the entrance to be seated (it was prompt); hand sanitiser was available, and staff were wearing shields and kept their distance. Tables were very well spaced, and staff kept a suitable distance during ordering and service. We felt safe. Our meals were excellent. The chicken skewer, served with humus, a tabbouleh salad, and flatbread, was ample in flavour and size. The monk fish was also tasty and well presented. We accompanied these meals with a generous serving of fries with a ranch sauce, and a battered cauliflower dish (called popcorn cauliflower, if I remember correctly). These sides were exceptional, particularly the popcorn cauliflower. Service was prompt and attentive, and we enjoyed our meal at a leisurely and relaxed pace. There’s outside seating for summer dining, and a spacious bar area with an eclectic drinks menu. There’s also ample off-street parking. The pub is in quite a rural location so you’ll probably need to drive; the 148 bus connects to the larger Derbyshire towns of Alfreton, Ripley and Codnor. We will return.

A friend and I, on a trip to Derbyshire, made a point of visiting The Dog, a pub I last visited over 50 years ago. It was great to see little had changed. It was a lovely day, and we took the opportunity to sit in the garden, to admire the superb views over the local countryside. The service was really friendly and the beer excellent.

We visited 'The dog' for Sunday lunch and we were not disappointed. Lots to choose from a varied menu. We chose the Ashover Roast Pork. It was beautifully cooked and served with 4 dishes of vegetables which were cooked to perfection. I chose the lemon cheesecake whilst my partner had the Blackberry Sundae. The staff were friendly and helpful. We felt our visit was a real treat. We will be back soon

HAD booked lunch at this venue that we had not visited for a number of years, arrived on time and were shown straight to our table, then the wait began, 20 minutes after arriving the drinks waiter came and took our order which were the quickly served but we then had to wait another 20 minutes for the meal order to be taken, and no more offers of another drink, we'd finished the last. THE LUNCH CAME ANOTHER 25 MINUTES AFTER ORDERING, and it as to be said was very tasty and well cooked. However I was going past it by then, needless to say, we did,t wait for a dessert.

The food is somewhere beyond fabulous, the 60 year old claims it was the best pie he has ever eaten. The fish and chips were great, the homemade mushy peas and tartare were exceptional. Every single member of staff was lovely and they even welcomed our over excited puppy with open arms (literally)..... If we didn't live in London I'd be here twice a week. Thank you all.

Mi familia y yo tuvimos una oferta groupon aquí. Al llegar todo parecía bien, nos presentó los menús sólo para descubrir que no eran ofreciendo lo que había en la oferta groupon. El primer plato llega, que parecía fantástico darnos muchas esperanzas para el resto de nuestra comida. El campo principal tomó 40 minutos si no más en llegar, por que hacía frío. El papa puré parecía smash, y todos nuestros platos principales se veía como la comida que te dan en un 3,99 todo lo que pueda comer restaurante. El cerdo pedimos, que no estaba en el menú, pero el groupon ofrecen, era insípido. no devolverlo, ya que no queríamos esperar otra hora para nuestra comida. Cuando pedir bebidas principales ups, la camarera se le olvidó nosotros así que esperamos otra media hora. Una comida de 2 platos tardaron 2 horas, lo que es una vergüenza. sólo había 4 mesa por lo tanto no había excusa. Entiendo que tenían un comedor separado; así que ellos no quieren clientes groupon cerca pagadores personas completos. No vayas aquí. No malgastes tu dinero. La comida nos dejó 2 de nosotros enferma. Estos chefs necesita formación adecuada, por lo que el personal.

So we were stopping here after visiting family in the area and we were on the way home. It was a very quiet afternoon. Some might not like that it's quiet but for us it was perfect. It's a bit strange inside as it's half-pub, half Travelodge but despite hesitations we found it t be perfect for what we wanted (i.e. a snack and rest after a long journey). We had the 3 plates deal (I think it was for £14-£15) and it was plentiful for the two of us. I can see why this is rated the no. 1 spot in the area.
