The Duke of York in Derbyshire Dales

We stayed here for 2 nights, lovely quiet site, facilities absolutely spotless, we had the most amazing views from our pitch. We had a meal in the pub one evening and the food was lovely, all the staff super friendly and helpful!

Stayed for three nights in our campervan. Friendly welcome at reception, efficient booking in process. Surrounded by lovely views. Clean shower/toilet block. EHU, shared water tap between each two pitches. All hard standing pitches looked level. Provided with leaflet containing walks in the area. Used High Peak Trail to walk to Royal Oak. Had a meal at the Duke of York, decent food at reasonable prices. Free WiFi was good. Went to Monyash and had delicious cake at Old Smithy. Worth returning to.

Stopped over here for a few nights in our motorhome, arriving Sunday lunchtime we obviously had lunch which was a real treat. The carvery was wonderful, breakfast was equally as good with a great choice of lovely food. Everyone here is so friendly and helpful! We will definitely be coming back here.

Visited the pub as we were staying in the area. We came for lunch and a few drinks, then breakfast the following day. Both times we loved the pub. Lovely feeling in the pub with a wood burning fire for extra cosy feel. We had burgers and sandwiches which were so fresh and great portion size. Chips were delicious too. Breakfast was equally as fabulous freshly cooked to order, presented beautifully and again amazing portion size. Owners are lovely, friendly and helpful. Breakfast was quite busy possibly with campers from the adjoining campsite and I can see why. Cosy country pub in a beautiful location serving great food. Hoping to visit the campsite later in the year.

Group of 12 visited here on a Saturday evening as staying locally, we were not disappointed. Very hospitable, we pre-ordered food and paid a deposit. Excellent food! No room for puddings though! 5⭐️

A place that we have passed hundreds of times, but never been in. So today we thought we would would stop off for a quick, late Sunday lunch. Time was getting on, so there weren't many in and we were pleasantly greeted and shown to a nice table opposite the roaring log burner. While not an extensive menu, there seemed to be enough choices to satisfy most people. We had a very tasty veggie curry and a vegan burger, served fairly promptly. Both just over £14, the burger was only a standard size, but unusually served with some tasty jackfruit on and a slice of vegan cheese. There were some small onion rings and a mug of nice home made chips. I know overheads are high anywhere these days, but would suggest a thicker, larger pattie, relish, slice of tomato and lettuce even if you lose the cheese. This would feel like better value for a veggie meal. Overall, a nice pub, pleasant and efficient staff, well priced drinks but slightly higher priced food. Good quality and fresh.

Lamb shank was great the treacle sponge was out of this world 🤤 I am already looking forward to coming back

Absolutely love it here. Traditional coaching inn, lovely cosy bar with wood burning stove. A pint of ale or coffee with a bowl of soup, ideal before or after a walk on the Pennine way or the nice easy walk on the old railway line

Great pub, nice roast dinner and freindly staff. Very good value for money. A little out of the way but worth the trip

Arranged a family meal for a special occasion, friendly bar staff however the landlady needs to smile a little and on occasions was rather rude. Food quality was acceptable, quick service , choice was limited however overall pleasant evening .

Visited here twice for Lunch. Both times have been enjoyable. The people are pleasant, efficient and the food is good

14 of us been today for a birthday lunch, all the meals were delicious, and puddings too. Can't recommend highly enough. Staff lovely and helpful.

Came on 9th October with PC coaches from Lincoln. Made so welcome. Beautiful roast lunch served very quickly and with smiles. Well recommended.

Booked 2 nights at this adult only, dog friendly campsite. My wife had selected the site and I made the booking online. Never like having to pay for an awning on a pitch you are already paying for, but hey hey ho. We got set up and thought we would go for a drink at the on site pub. The 'dog friendly' section being on one side of the pub. Walked in and was met with several other couples all with their doggos, and a nice chilled vibe was to be had. Drinks ordered we sat at a table with 2 other separate couples close by. Got chatting for about 15-20 mins. We all had our dogs on our knees. A lady then approached and without even, a "Hello", or "excuse me" just stood there staring and then said "Can you put your dogs on the floor please?" A little shocked we all complied, but tbh I was a little taken aback. The rules do state no dogs on the furniture, but the last time I checked my leg wasn't wooden, nor part of the furniture. I went to order another drink and asked the lady in question why I wasn't allowed my own dog on my own legs. She replied, "That other couples dog put its paws on the table, so I have to treat you all the same" Wow, we left after that drink. I can't comment on the food as the meal we planned to have there the next day didn't happen due to being made to feel rather uncomfortable with 'knee gate'. Had it been managed a little more professionally then perhaps we would have returned, but it wasn't, so we won't.

My wife and I called in fora light lunch last Friday, on the way to visit a relative in Cheshire. We have passed the pub before - almost once every month for five years , but never stopped! We fancied a quick beer and a sandwich each (one beef with salad and one ham with salad) which were both tasty and well presented. The welcome was warm-without going ''over the top'' --which so many pubs annoyingly do these days. The beer, Robinson's Trooper, was excellent and the landlady gave us a potted history of the pub's lifetime. All in all, a delightful break in our journey---and well worth a stop if you're passing by on the A515 Ashbourne - Buxton road.

We have stayed at this site a number of times now over the last few years. I’ve even stayed on my own - just me and the dog and feel so comfortable there. The site is in a great location and the facilities are good. The pub is great - really good food and drinks. The leaflet they give you with local walks on it is an excellent touch. We stayed on a Sunday night, which we haven’t done before, and hadn’t realised the pub shuts at 7. The owner could not have been more helpful and still sold us a bottle of wine to take back to our van. We also requested a specify pitch and they accommodated us. Will definitely be back a couple of times again next year.

We visited here for 4 nights ( 14th july 2023 ) in our tent after some great recommendations. We were not disappointed, the site is spot on with brilliant shower/toilet and wash facilities. It benefits From some amazing views over the countryside and some beautiful sun rises and sets. We came with our puppy who was very welcome both in the pub and on the site. The staff here are so helpful and friendly, to the point where I felt they would help us and accommodate almost anything we asked of them. The food was really nice with plenty of choice. The site was very friendly and we were never short of happy people to chat to. We will definitely be returning and recommending this site to our friends and families. Thanks again team from Adam ( wilcox ) Hannah and pippa. See you again soon.

During our stay in Buxton we visited ‘The Duke of York’ on two separate occasions for Sunday lunch. Both times we were a large family group and we were looked after really well by the staff each time. The roast meats were all hand carved, Yorkshire puddings homemade and the vegetables were very tasty and plentiful. On our second visit, there were 17 of us including children and all thoroughly enjoyed their meals. Many had desert also and again these were all well presented and really tasty. If you are in the area this is definitely worth a try.

Myself and my partner stayed here for the weekend and loved every minute! The landlady was lovely, toilet block clean and most importantly- gorgeous views! The location is great for walks and a short drive from Bakewell and Buxton. The only downfall is the noise from the road at night but that’s something that cannot be helped. It’s a bonus for a campsite to be at the back of a pub, and what a beautiful pub it is indeed! We both had the chicken burger and it was the best one we’ve ever had (we’ve had a lot) and fabulous portions too! We will definitely be returning soon!!

Great pub for a family evening meal. Food was great quality, very reasonably priced, there was a decent choice, portion sizes were good, and the waitress was really nice and great with the kids. Would definitely recommend.

Stayed at the campsite for two nights. Everything was excellent. Lovely showers and the views are fantastic. Ate in the pub and the food and choice of ales was really good. We will definitely be returning .

Found this by accident but so pleased we did. Very warm welcome, dog friendly as well. Food was superb, excellent value and very tasty, both of us cleared our plates. Everything cooked to order, and even our puddings were made to order. Staff were attentive and pleasant. Good range of beers and more importantly gin!

We stayed at the campsite here in our motorhome and had a wonderful time. The site is adult only and the pitches spaced out, so is very quiet. Not so, when you enter the bar in the evening for a meal. The staff are friendly and efficient and encourage all the guests to get on. We had our dog with us, and he was spoilt rotten. I would very happily return at any time, and I can’t recommend a better place in the Peak District to use as a base to explore the area.

Visited last night, lovely welcome, we sat in the bar area with our dogs, it was nice and warm with the log burner going. I tried the veggie burger and my sister had the scampi, both excellent. Service was great! Highly recommend and look forward to going back.

We have been twice now, just moved in the area and we we’re recommended by neighbours to try it. We had lovely meals/evenings on both occasions, it’s a lovely cosy, clean and stylish country pub with delicious home cooking. The staff and landlady were very pleasant to us, we’re looking forward to going a lot more from now on.

The welcoming bar lady (who ended her shift in the bar around 6pm) appeared somewhat irritated at my arrival and discussion about our camping arrangements and she then displayed the same irritation at my friend's arrival an hour later. This is not the way to welcome paying guests.

Couple evening meal while stopping at the site. The welcome was very warm and friendly as was the real fire. Comfortable well placed seating.Waitress helpful and attentive. Food marvellous!!! Steak and Ales pie, beautiful!. Chips amazing. Thank you Chef, the pride you have in your cooking tastes beautiful.

During a visit to Buxton we decided to pop in for a family meal at 5pm on a cold, damp, foggy, December evening. The previous day I called The Duke of York to book the table and confirm opening times. On entering the restaurant there was a warm welcome into a beamed dining room with enclosed wood burner providing a nice warmth. Tables laid 2 meters apart for social distancing. The service was friendly and knowledgeable about menu items with information about local content and suppliers. The meal was served with in a timely manner, allowing for a leisurely dining experience. The food was presented well, piping hot and tasty. Overall an extremely pleasant experience. I’d recommended The Duke of York for a meal for to anyone looking for a family meal.

Wonderful, cosy pub. Many, many thanks for such a warm welcome from Bridget and Gary. We were stranded in the snow and they welcomed us in and let us warm up by the fire and took the time and went out of their way to drive us back to where we were staying. The coffee was exactly what we needed and the hot chocolates are definite recommendation! A lovely haven in the snow. Their kindness very much appreciated. Thank you to the wonderful Duke of York!

We visited as a family for a lovely meal, the food was very nice and especially the desserts were delicious. The staff were friendly and everything was enjoyable. Thank you for a nice evening

Me and my Mrs were staying at a local camp site in our motorhome so chose the Duke of York as it was pithing easy walking distance. We arrived at the Pub and was shown to a side room which they were using for dining. The room had 2 other couples in but lacked any real atmosphere, not our choice as we like quaint bars etc but we ordered our food and drinks. The service was excellent and the food was superb. The home made steak and Ale pie was superb with rich gravy obviously made from stock etc. We would have no issues with recommending this venue but would be better eating in the bar area.

Meals here are second to non. Perfectly cooked beautifully presented and served by fantastic people. My only niggle is I need a bigger stomach because no matter how hard I try I can't fit it all in! Thank you Duke of York for fabulous meals and a wonderful campsite which me and the hubby will be returning for many years.

We arrived at the campsite on a Friday early evening as 3 couples and had been allocated 3 pitches next to each other. We had wonderful views of the Derbyshire Dales and had fallen lucky with the weather. Although one of our party is a chef we had pre booked a table in the pub for our first night purely for simplicity as we not setting off until after work and would arrive around 7.30pm. The food choice is a little unadventurous but we had no real issues with the food we were served. It’s fairly simple pub grub menu and although a little expensive for what you get it was adequate and pretty much did what it said on the tin. The next day we visited Buxton and topped up with food supplies etc and we cooked at our pitch and had some fantastic food, much better than was on offer in the pub but that’s not unusual when you have a decent chef in your party. After we had eaten we decided to support the pub again and go there for a few drinks. This time there was an unusual atmosphere in the pub and it was nowhere near as busy as the night before. There was another guy in the pub who I recognised from the campsite and he introduced himself to us. He explained that his wife had gone to bed early leaving him at a lose end and asked to join us at our table. Soon it was time to order our next round of drinks and this other guy insisted that he bought us all a round of drinks and although we politely declined at first he was most insistent. After this we bought a few more rounds of drinks and before we knew it it was approaching 10.15 and there were no bar staff to be seen. I wen to to the back room where the land loads and landlady were chatting and asked if we could possibly have another round of drinks a s the lady agreed so long as we were quick. (It wasn’t until the next day that I realised that the bar is only open until 10.30 on Saturday nights.) and I thought it was odd for her to say that as I presumed like most other pubs they would be open until 11.00pm. It was my round and I was paying cash just like my other friends had done that night apart from one round that was paid for by my friend who had paid using an app on his phone. He was showing me this nee fancy app and how it could keep track on what he had spent that day when he noticed that his round was around £56.00 while mine abs the others in our party had paid £26-£28. There were variations in the drinks bought so we were happy that the rounds would be slightly different but this was unusual because it was double the price. He asked the landlady how come his round was so expensive and she said she would have to look into it the next day and ask the bar staff who had served us. We were perplexed as to how this could happen and we were discussing this at the bar when the landlady became very defensive about what had happened and her manner and demeanour changed quite quickly. At this point we had be very polite and courteous towards her and we were confused as to why she was acting so defensively and a little aggressively but we agreed to let her investigate it and come back to us. Needless to say the next day we visited a different pub within walking distance where we enjoyed better food, better service and similar prices for the meal. On the final day as we were leaving the landlady came to see us to explain her conclusion of what had happened with the “expensive” round. It transpires that the guy who joined us and bought a round did not pay for his round. Apparently he had been loud and intimidating to the young bar staff so rather than ask him for the money directly they added it to our round, after all we had drank this drinks. There was no offer of a refund or partial refund but she did apologise. Having had time to think about it this amounts to an unauthorised payment being taken from my friends card. He is not the type of person to cause a fuss about money and didn’t want to cause a scene so we decided to contact the pub via email to express our disappointment. We have sent 2 emails and waited nearly a week with no response so with regret I am forced to write this review. I have read many reviews both good and bad about this site and there does seem to be a pattern. People love the location, the facilities in the campsite are good ( although there can be a nasty smell from the toilets / shower blocks) the problems seem to arise when there is any interaction with the management. The management don’t seem very well trained in dealing with customer problems and become rather defensive and mildly aggressive. I have also read many of their replies to bad reviews on trip advisor and the same pattern seems to emerge. You work in the hospitality industry where your customer care skills can make or break someone’s hard earned holiday. It really is such a shame because this place could be so amazing with just some minor tweaks. Other establishments that we visited in the area all seemed to have very good service and make the effort to ensure we enjoyed our stay and were very welcoming. In summary we had a really good weekend but we feel very let down by the service levels we received by the management of this site and we hope that this review can help you to improve your offering to future guests

The campsite is almost a 5, and the pub a 3 so I settled on 4 overall. The food is well cooked with generous portions but very little was homemade. The starter of garlic mushrooms had a lovely sauce but with catering mushrooms. The fish cakes were not homemade, which was a shame. Great friendly service, and good value for what it is. If they added a few more homemade items it would be great pub food. The campsite is excellent- well laid out, good facilities, showers etc only lacking a washing (clothes) area.

We came across it purely by chance but what a great surprise we had.Sunday lunch was excellent,the beef and pork portions were plentiful,the vegetables cooked to our liking and the homemade Yorkshire pudding was delightful. Treacle sponge and custard followed and as we waddled back to our car we both said we'd definitely return.

Pub connected to a camping ground, never going to be the most lavish of settings but the Sunday roast was magnificent. Big plate, plenty of meat, great veg and a lake of gravy!

Looked forward to a weekend here and werenot disappointed! Lovely, friendly site set in stunning surroundings. Very relaxing and exceptionally good food served in the pub by very nice staff. Bonus: we could take our pug into the bar. Can highly recommend the take away full breakfast too. All in all cannot fault anything and we will definitely make another visit to this gem of a site.

Stopped on the way through.... limited menu but what we ate was very tasty... friendl staff, beautiful views across Peaks

Stayed on camp site with caravan. Quiet. Clean. Visited the pub for a meal and few drinks. Would highly recommend. Food was amazing. Staff very attentive. Inside or outside catered for as are dogs. Will definitely be back.

Brill site...friendly staff....will come again clean and tidy place...enjoyed our stay.food amazing...can.t fault anything.

We stayed at the campsite and had a couple of takeaways from here over the weekend. Saturday evening I had the steak and ale pie which was packed full of beef. The pastry was delicious, as was the gravy. My husband had the steak and kidney pudding, which he quickly devoured. Then Sunday we had the roast beef Sunday dinner, the vegetables were beautifully cooked and tasty. It was all so delicious, and very reasonably priced. Definitely recommend it

My in laws were celebrating their 55th wedding anniversary and under normal circumstances we would do that with a nice meal at the pub. Because of Covid we decided to treat them to a take out pub meal for two at home. Because it was near to Christmas we ordered two turkey dinners, two puddings and cheese and biscuits. We were amazed by the care the pub had gone to, to make this Christmas lunch special. As well as collecting the meal in a lovely wrapped Christmas box, the meal contained lots of meat, a large selection of vegetables, pigs in blankets, roast and mashed potatoes and gravy. There was a good selection of cheese and generous helpings of pudding. There were lots of little extras too such as Christmas crackers, mince pies and chocolates. My in laws were delighted and we were so grateful to the Duke of York for putting this together for us. Thanks Bridget and Gary for providing this wonderful service.

We love a run out for lunch on a Saturday and this was in my list of places to go.Great pub, felt really safe with covid restrictions in place.Lovely greeting from both the waitress and the lady who ran the restaurant. Could not fault any of these.The food we found to be of good quality but quite expensive compared to other places. The chips I must say were great.My husband had the pie, it was £14.95 so expected something fab. It was a good tray pie with plenty of meat but rather expensive for the size if you look at the photograph.The selection of veg was good. I had the gammon at £12.95 I also ordered side of onion rings at £3 so the meal cost me £15.95.Plenty to eat but the gammon was dry.

Visited First weekend in October, felt really secure and safe. Plenty of space in the car park. Views are stunning from the caravan site.

My friends and I often go for aate lunch, and generally served by Felicia, a charming smart intelligent young woman, who it has to be said sets the standards for service patience and overall cheerfulness,The food is superb plenty of parking and very easy to find, charming country pub and restaurant. Top marks.

Charming welcoming pub with a roaring wood stove. Lovely on a very rainy windy night. Good food with large portions and a good ale and gin selection. Nice chat with the owner Bridget. Felt very safe dining here. Good COVID precautions in place . Would call again if passing

We have the most loving and well behaved friendliest family Dog and we was Just told we are not allowed to book because they do not accept Staffies.The rule should be towards the dog owner (defined by the owner being a fully responsible, safe and considerate dog owner) and not the dog!

Popped into this charming Pub on our way home from holiday. We were were welcomed by a really lovely lady (think may have been the Landlady) who seated us and took our order. We we had the Chef's Special which was wild bore sausages in a very large yorkshire pudding, with veg, it was huge and really good. The Menu was varied and also had a snack option. All the Covid requirements were in place which made us feel comfortable and we really enjoyed our visit in a beautiful location. Highly recommend and will be returning when we are in the area again. Thank You.

I think we must have visited on an evening when covid regulations had overwhelmed the manager of the Duke of York. There were only half a dozen diners at the time we booked but the young staff, although eager to help, where clearly very new to the job to the point of not knowing anything about drinks or the menu. I received a half of stout to be told it was definitely the cider I ordered. Other tables were having similar issues. I felt sorry for them as they clearly wanted to do a good job but had had no training at all. One other table left before ordering as they were told, quit rudely, that they had to order food and drink together. I'm sure this was just a bad night; others seem to love it here. The food was reasonably priced and ok.

The wife and I were staying at a local campsite and decided to eat here one evening. We rang them and hooked a table in the bar. Our dog was welcome and the service was excellent. The covid precautions were very good and not over the top. A fantastic pint of ale. Ordered the garlic mushrooms to start. Best I have ever had. Then the fish of the day (haddock) with chips and mushy peas. I could not believe the portion size for the price. (£13) In fact I could not eat it all.Well worth a visit.Also has a lovely beer garden and a campsite.

For the last 5 years a group of Veterans on Motorcycles camp in the tent field and this Bank Holiday weekend was no different. With Covid we realised we'd had to book in advance for the use of the restaurant and bar etc. We all arrived with a welcome from Bridgette. The Covid rules for the use of the toilets and showers were thourough and easy to understand to which we all adhered to. The Restaurant and bar service was excellent, the covid procedures that are in place there was executed by the staff, faultlessly throughout the night, thank you for that. We had a great weekend of riding, eating and drinking. We will be there again.

We ate here while camping locally. We had booked a table and it was ready for us and were told it was ours for the evening which was nice. We found all the young staff very polite and helpful and we all enjoyed our meals. It was a cold rainy night but we felt warm and full after our visit here.

This was such a weird experience.We arrived well before opening time, by appointment, for tea and cakes whilst cycling the pennine bridleway. It was pouring with rain and blowing a gale!They served us in a pretty dopey o!d marquee at the back and all in all was a surreal experience.HOwever, tea, coffee, and cakes were lovely and the staff were charming. The fact that they were willing to help us out will stay with me. Great customer service.I can't comment on the rest of the operation as we simply didn't see it.I would go back any time.

Fantastic campsite and pub, there are approx 30 pitches all nicely spaced out in a circle with plenty of room for caravan, awning and car. They are level and have electric and water hook up shared between two so very handy. The toilet/ shower block is very clean and has been amended with Covid-19 procedures in place so you can book a 30 min slot for your party’s exclusive use. Views of the Peak District are great and thoroughly recommend the campsite. The pub is where you book in, Bridget gives you a comprehensive list of where to go and what to do, we also got some great advice on where to go for caravan accessories and some local walks. You can book in for dinner or arrange your takeaway with her too. The food is fantastic we ate here every night and thoroughly enjoyed it. Everything is again perfectly balanced with Covid-19 precautions and great service. We felt very safe here and can’t wait to revisit.

Campsite Amazing and had takeaway meal tonight. Steak and ale pie, fish, curry sauce and peas all lovely but disappointed with the chips. Hardly cooked and hard and cold in centre so slightly disappointed.

It was very reassuring to see that this pub is implementing the Covid procedures properly. After being at other establishments that were patchy in their implementation, this one made me feel safe. I chose the chicken curry from the menu, which was nothing to write home about but the pint of Trooper was spot on.There is plenty of room to spread out here and a large marquee in the garden where meals are served. Large car park too, which is handy given the pub is a long way from anywhere. That said, it is an easy walk from the campsites in Flagg.

Staying on the campsite, which itself is lovely, so we had a meal in the pub. Great service, lovely food and very welcoming. Looking forward to our next meal later in the week.

We booked to eat here while staying across the road at Pomeroy campsite. I am glad we did book, as the evening we ate it was quite cold and windy (typical British august weather) and it was clear that due to social distancing several people had to be turned away. As a party of 7 we were split over two tables, which was fine but meant that we had a spare seat on one of our tables - considering we had booked together surely we could have all sat together, especially when it meant another customer (an elderly older gentleman, who was clearly alone and needing to get dinner was told he had to eat outside - in a gazebo, which didn’t have heaters) The food was good and had good portions, and did offer several gluten free options (apart from desert) which for me was nice. Sadly the place did lack atmosphere and while I appreciate they are clearly following guidelines regarding Covid 19, a little more warmth from the staff would have been nice. We had to remove our own drinks and food from the trays they were brought to us on, while not really an issue a warning about a hot plate would have been nice. I can see that this is clearly a lovely pub, I just would have liked to see a little more humanity when clearly the older gentleman just wanted his dinner and a pint with his dogs. I was just about to offer our spare chair to him when he asked for his food to take away. (A good service that the pub is offering) I know that rules need to be followed, but sometimes we also need to be human and realise that some people need the human connection that they haven’t had in several months.For me, the lack of humanity when serving the older gentlemen was disappointing, if they couldn’t seat him, they should immediately have offered him a takeaway service, rather than suggesting he sit outside in a cold and windy gazebo and this is the reason for my average review.

Probably the worst eating out experience I’ve had post COVID-19. The service was so robotic and the woman serving behind the bar doesn’t acquire any level of customer service skills. We left a bad review and we then received a curtesy call after thanking us for the bad review in the most sarcastic way possible. Avoid this place at all costs

Stayed at a nearby cottage for a week with the family and ate takeaway from the Duke of York 4 nights during our stay. The food and service was excellent. Very nice roast dinner on Sunday and various other dishes the other nights from their menu. Very pleased all in all.

Brilliant site to stay at, we have stayed many times and will continue to stay at this site. The facilities are kept very clean and welcoming and staff very helpful. If there is any issue just mention it to the owners and they are more than happy to help. Food is fantastic and the breakfasts are the best we have had. I can not give this site enough credit yes there are rules in place for Covid but all very well laid out and to help everyone feel safe and secure.We have stayed on many sites now but will always return to this one as one of the best, thanks to all the hard work of Bridget and Gary and their staff.Jan and Pete

Great experience! Have just visited 2 other campsites whose COVID measures were woeful. Could not fault the Duke of York - everything spotless and measures are strict but clear and necessary.Felt very safe here - well done to the staff.Had 2 take-outs, and these were delivered to our camper. Great food, especially the homemade steak and ale pie!Will be back

Spotless, safe, friendly staff, amazing food in pub. Staff couldn’t do enough. Covid precautions excellent but didn’t spoil - well done. We will be back

Our first venture out to a pub post lockdown. Not sure what to expect but the welcome as warm as ever. Tables nicely spaced. Printed menus on the table. Drinks orders taken and delivered at our table. Food ordered and delivered to our table. Lovely food beautifully presented all fresh and very tasty. After lunch the bill brought with the card machine all sorted swiftly and without fuss. Thanks to all the staff as usual.

We live locally and ordered a take-away Sunday lunch after our neighbours recommended it. The service was excellent, the food amazing and great value for money. With the Coronovirus lock-down I had forgotton what a good Sunday lunch from a pub tasted like! I would highly recommend the Duke and would like to say thank you to Bridget and Gary for providing such a great service.

Pub was dog friendly and staff behind the bar very friendly. The owner not as friendly and gave too many rules when you book in. She continued to underline the rules as she was reeling them off. Beautiful views from the field

Absolutely wonderful little pub. Called in for a carvery on our way home today and this will definitely not be our last visit. Greeted with a very warm welcome and all the staff were extremely lovely and helpful. Really went out of their way to make everything perfect. The carvery was superb. Best Sunday lunch I’ve had in a very long time. Lovely staff and amazing value. Highly recommended.

lovely place with friendly staff. it was a cold wet windy night but it was warm and cosy inside. the food was really tasty there was nothing left on anyone's plate. it was so good we went back to breakfast in the morning! we will be going back!

Excellent Sunday Lunch. This is the third time we (party of 4) have visited and have always been highly satisfied with the whole experience. Today’s carvery (beef and/or turkey) was considered delicious by all. We all agreed that it could not have been bettered anywhere. Thank you to the staff who were all friendly and helpful.

We have just stayed for 3 nights on the caravan site. The site is lovely, facilities are immaculate and views are superb. We dined at the pub a few times, absolutely fantastic food, the breakfast is one of the best we have had. Bridget and Gary are so helpful and friendly. Booked to come again!

After a recent visit we’ve decided that we won’t be returning. I prefer not to give detailed feedback as I notice the management always seem to contradict any bad reviews on trip advisor and don’t appear to try to improve things based on poor feedback. Needless to say the food, welcome and service were not up to scratch.

A roaring fire, fabulous menu, smiling efficient staff. What more could you ask for on a dreary February day. The menu has lots choices for vegetarians, gluten intolerant and even those with smaller appetites. When asked a smaller portion was cheerfully provided.

As it was absolutely horrendous weather, what with heavy winds and rain, blowing in sheets, it meant we would not be having our usual walk and cooking at home, having made a great decision to doss for the day and dine out.As the Duke of York is up the road a couple of miles and we've dined their before, we ventured again for the Sunday carvery. In a nutshell, although we had choices to venture elsewhere, we just find the whole atmosphere, the service, the meal and the log-burner enticing.With the carvery you have the option of small or regular, and we opted the for the latter. We were the first there and got our place by the log-burner - brill! We both had a starter, although you don't really need one with the regular carvery, we just enjoy the food (and a bit greedy I suppose). I had mushroom soup (home made), and I have to say it is the best mushroom soup I've ever had, and I make my own soups - it was lovely. The wife had pat`et and I understand that was very nice.By this time other couples etc had arrived and it was getting quite busy; obviously they'd had the same ideas as us, and came in to the pub/restaurant soaked, as it was lashing it down outside in the gale.With e carvery, you had a choice of beef or turkey (you could have some of both if you chose to). I had the beef and the wife had both meets. there was selection of vegetable:- roast potatoes (yummy), mashed potatoes, red cabbage, carrots and broccoli and lovely home-made gravy. It was all absolutely lovely and we were both "stuffed". As a result we were unable to indulge in the home-made puddings, which are also recommended.To top our time there, the service from all the staff was wonderful and there was good banter and atmosphere from everyone there.A very nice time and well recommended.

We have stayed at The Duke of York on many occasions with our ‘furry kids’. The site is well maintained and an ideal location for walking. On this occasion our friends booked two pitches and was told that as it was the winter months there would be no charge for dogs or awnings. We arrived on Friday afternoon and then had a few drinks in the pub on the Friday. We saw the landlady in the pub and had a chat. No issues we had a lovely evening.On Saturday morning myself and my husband took our dogs out for a short walk before having breakfast and getting ready for going out walking for the day. As we were walking back to the caravan across the pub car park with the dogs on their leads a sudden shout came bellowing across from the back of the pub. “how many dogs have you got?” No morning, hello, excuse me just a rude shout at us. I replied we had 5 to which a response was “it’s only two per pitch” I explained that we had stayed many times before and had paid for all of the dogs and it hadn’t been as issue. The landlady shouted that it’s only two and if you come again it will only be two per pitch. Our friends don’t have dogs so in essence we were only one dog over this! This won’t be an issues as we won’t be staying here again as we didn’t appreciate being yawped at across the car park.I understand that rules are rules but it hadn’t been an issue in the past and there are ways of talking to people.

The food both nights was spot on, what I would call proper pub food. A good range of local drinks inc Gins

A belated review, but important to write. While on a walking holiday we called in with our well behaved border collie and got excellent service and an excellent meal. All credit to the team!

After a chilly morning walk we were nicely warmed up with two meals from the seniors' menu - two courses for £10! I had a tasty nut roast with plenty of perfectly cooked vegetables and gravy in a separate jug, followed by excellent chocolate ice cream from the neighbouring farm. My husband had liver and bacon with mashed potato, vegetables and gravy, followed by an individual apple crumble with the custard in a separate jug, rather than poured all over the top like in most other places!

On half is a lovely pub, cosy and warm. No issues with this part.

We passed this pub hundreds of times on our way up to Saddleworth to see my in-laws. Every time we passed, we said 'Doesn't that look nice?'

As a last minute decision, after going for a good walk, we opted to go for Sunday lunch again at the Duke of York. We had been done the same months ago after it had not that long changed hands and were very pleased with what we experienced, hence we returned.

We stayed at The Duke of York campsite for 4 nights. The facilities were really good. Nice hot showers with underfloor heating, and very clean. The grounds were well kept and the site and pub are dog friendly. We used the pub for our evening meal each night and the food was very, very good. We would definitely use this site again.

Stayed on caravan site and enjoyed the lovely heated toilet/shower block and had lovely evening meal. Highly recommend the experience and look forward to repeating next year.

Stayed here for two nights recently in a camper van, facilities were top notch and spotlessly clean, views are outstanding, pub is dog friendly and fantastic. The food is absolutely gorgeous and I would recommend to everyone

Four of us ate here one Friday evening. The décor is a little dated but the food was very good and the chips were the best I've tasted in a long time - proper home made chips. It was good value, hot and tasty - just right after a day's walking the the Peak District.

Booked a table here for 6pm last Saturday ,after a busy day arrived back at the caravan ( at the farm opposite not onsite ) around 5.30 and wandered over not really ready to eat ! Got chatting to another couple who were booked in at 8pm .... when asked to go to our table we said we weren’t quite ready to eat ,a few minutes later Bridgette came over & insisted we sat down as she had a large party booked in & needed to get our food order into the kitchen , at this point the other couple said you’re quite welcome to share our table , so we said we would wait and order later ( much to her annoyance !!! ) at 7.45 we were then asked to take our table , even tho it wasn’t booked until 8pm ! In the meantime the LARGE party of 8 had arrived & eaten so this should no longer have been an issue ! However we were made to feel uncomfortable because we weren’t at our table when we SHOULD have been !!! We promptly ordered asking for two separate bills as we were just sharing the table ! The cutlery was abruptly place on the table and our food arrived soon after .

Lovely staff. Comfortable surroundings. Food was fantastic. Piping hot and really tasty. Amazing choice of food, even for the vegetarians. 5 stars!

Very good lunch. The carvery is very nice. Food nice and fresh and good portions. Service good. Reasonably priced. Morning is quite extensive.

Visited here twice whilst camping across the road and the staff were so friendly and helpful. We had two tired children and nothing was too much bother. The food was beautiful - without a doubt the steak and ale pie, homemade children’s chicken nuggets and the cheesecake were one of the best we’ve ever had. A real hidden gem and a highlight of our holiday

We stayed at the caravan park here for a week so had the chance to have several meals during our stay. We had a lovely lunch of jacket potato and ploughman’s lunch; both very good value and good portions. We had 3 evening meals as well which were all very nice. Worth booking to make sure you get a table. Lovely homemade deserts and good specials menu.

Really love this place and been many times recently. The food is very good quality and value. Lots of options for gluten free also. Staff are very professional and helpful so what else are you looking for. You won’t be disappointed if you go.

Two seniors, on their way to Buxton stopped off for lunch. By chance we turned left in the doorway and were confronted by barking dogs...very off putting. A member of staff however caught our eye and offered us a very pleasant table in the adjoining room which was fine, and where we discovered no dogs are allowed. Old and a little tired, but this is a delightful old traditional pub, with an excellent menu, and very fair pricing.

Approached this place when in the area initially just for a drink, read through teh menu and decided to eat there. There was something on teh menu for all of us, which with two slightly difficult to please teenagers is a big plus. The food is great quality, and plentiful without it being overfacing. The service is good, comes with a smile and knowledge and well worth the visit.

After a 9 hour flight to Manchester, we needed some good food on our journey to Nottingham. The Duke of York was the perfect answer. The food was fresh and hot and the portions were generous. The range of beers was good. This is a dog-friendly pub and numerous furry friends were lying around. The service was friendly and quick.

The Duke of York is a lovely place to eat. Firstly they accept but segregate dogs into a separate dining area and the (non-dog) main dining area is lovely- traditional beams and a log fire. The menu is very reasonable and when we visited there must have been another 15 ‘specials’ available. I went for the steak pie which was huge containing lots of succulent beef- almost too much to eat and I have a large appetite! The staff are lovely- very welcoming, friendly and efficient. I only have one, small negative point and that’s that they only have a couple of real ales available on draft.

This pub is a real find in the peaks. I can’t recommend it enough. Great food, beautiful pub and a fantastic campsite where you wake up with views of the rolling hills. Bridget is fantastic and made us feel so very very welcome. So welcome in fact that we booked our wedding reception party at the pub for 70 people and camped on site too. What an amazing day and evening. Thanks again Bridget. Magical.

We enjoyed a nice meal here, with a nice pint of mild. The food service was prompt and friendly, but the woman behind the bar could have offered a warmer welcome. Fair pub grub at a fair price.

Ample parking at this old coaching inn with spectacular views of the Derbyshire Dales all around. 13 of us sat comfortably close together at 3 tables and we were well looked after, with attentive staff and the proprietor checking we had everything we needed. The carvery was hot and delicious. Few of us had room for puddings but they were good too. It was a relaxed friendly dining room and we were not hurried to leave. We would certainly go back.

We pitched up to amazing views great facilities and friendly pub needed a place between Liverpool and Nottingham to visit family pub staff couldn’t do enough to make us feel welcome and help with walking the local area food was brilliant freshly prepared when we met with friends from glossop and even though they were due to close at ten were happy to wait for us to leave looking forward to coming back don’t miss this one out on your adventures

Despite being advertised as open , despite me ringing and no one bothering to answer the phone we drove for 45 minutes to get there , arrived to find it closed , met by a miserable proprietor no management public relations skills so left .. certainly wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone ...

My husband stay at the pitchup site and used the pub to have our evening meal. The food was amazing, the staff were warm and friendly. I would recommend a visit
