Called in with 2 friends whilst walking for a spot of lunch and a couple of beers. Lovely food great pint of Bass but you never brought me the £5 you owed me in change and I forgot before we left. School boy error. Might have to call again!

As someone who has visited many a pub and ran a boozer down south, I'm so delighted that this is now my local. I know Derbyshire and Cheshire very well, and I can promise you that the warmth of the hosts and all the guests is second to none. None! - RS

What a lovely little gem of a gastropub. I visited some friends in Stanton in Peak with my little boy today and we met here. What a great pub. Friendly service, lovely food and really good beer. The place has a really nice cosy atmosphere and we very much enjoyed our visit. I had the 'Cornish' style pasty with lashings of gravy, made just down the road, and my little fella had a mega fish finger sandwich. I also noticed plenty of veggie and meat substitution dishes which would suit many. Thanks once again for your hospitality, hope we can come again some time.

Lovely food, warm atmosphere, friendly staff. I can’t recommend this pub enough, went with a friend who had heard it served vegan food, it was new to me. Lovely home cooked food (I had a homemade homily pie, which was delish, my friend had the largest bowl of soup I’ve ever seen, also delish). The menu has a huge range of veggie and vegan options. Food was quickly prepared, very tasty and the tea came with cute china cups and silly tea-cosies all adding to the fun. The space is lovely, a very traditional old Derbyshire pub, with open fire. Our muddy boots were welcome (as are dogs) and a warm by the fire was appreciated. Only after we’d sat digesting our food and chatting for ages, and only after we’d asked when they closed did the landlord mention they were supposed to shut 45mins earlier but had patiently waited for us to finish. Treat yourself to a visit.

Nobody does pubs as well as we do them in this country and this place is a fabulous example of what makes the Great British pub great. We only stopped very briefly for a swift one on a walk with dogs but we were looked after brilliantly by genuine, friendly staff. Thank you.

Authentic British country pub with excellent food and real ales. The menu is mostly plant based with some vegetarian and a few meat dishes. Nine of us went and all enjoyed the food, even though half the group were not vegetarian or vegan. The staff were friendly, atmosphere lovely and it's dog friendly. It's surrounded by lots of nice walking tracks too so perfect for a lunch and walk.

Had a delightful time at the childers and had a fantastic lunch. Sophie and Ric provide a country pub atmosphere, nestled in the heart of Derbyshire & the Peak District. Need a place to rest after a long walk? Look no further! Best pub of the year for dogs AND numerous nominations and awards in the good pub guide. Vegan dishes for all those needing a special spot that takes care of dietary needs. Also Gluten Free options. Reasonably priced and staff that take care of those who visit.

As a once a year visitors our custom won't be missed but I believe in a honest review whether good, bad or indifferent.. Unfortunately I have to leave a bad review in the hope the publican takes note. This is our annual visit on the way to paying our Christmas wishes to those family members who are no longer with us and reside in local cemeteries. We have been coming to the Flying Childers for the last ten years as a tradiition on our visits to Derbyshire. We arrived only 45 minutes after opening time to order drinks and food. We chose our fayre and went to order. From our two person choices, no mulled wine (it's Christmas!!) no BBQ burger, no sour dough bread and no skinny chips..We made alternative choices as one would. When are coffee arrived it wasn't hot only just warm but we didn't complain. Our meals arrived and when my partner cut her chick pea pastie in half it was still frozen in the middle. I took this meal back to the bar area for a replacement. We couldn't believe that the same cut in half pastie arrived back, apparently warmed up in a microwave and replaced on the same plate as the rest of the half eaten meal. And the salad looked like it had been scraped off the plate and same salad replaced. I would have expected a clean plate a completely fresh pastie and a replacement accompanied meal! Alas we won't be returning again

We were staying in the village for a couple of nights and popped into the pub both nights. Not only the loveliest and most warm welcome from Rick, with advice on best drinks and other options, but the most wonderful friendly locals we have ever had the pleasure of meeting. Such a great place to chill and chat. The perfect pub. Sorry we missed the quiz but we hope to return!!

We’ve just had another amazing lunch at the unspoilt, Flying Childers pub in pretty Stanton in Peak. We had the Seitan burger, a delicious vegan burger with a pile of salad & fries with skins, all washed down with a pint of hand pulled Welbeck IPA. The selection of real ales is always top notch, and the service is warm & friendly. Looking forward to our next lunch here already!

Just had to write this little pub a review after I visited for a post-walk lunch with partner and toddler. We're all vegan and often struggle to find places where there is a good range of options and we enjoy eating out. Definitely no problems here! Super lunch menu with soups, toasties, burgers and sandwiches, all with vegan options. The food arrived swiftly (given it being a busy Sunday) and was all obviously fresh, homemade and nicely presented. Covid-19 precautions were in place and the prices really reasonable. Think we might become regulars at this place- can't recommend enough!

This tiny two room pub up on the edge of Stanton Moor is a gem. Cosy village atmosphere, friendly people and tasty homemade lunch items. I'm vegetarian and usually struggle to find anything for me the average pub fayre menu. Not so here. A tasty sweetcorn and chickpea burger with sweet chilli sauce really hit the spot, washed down with a refreshing draught cider. There are lots of nice walks round this part of the Peak District, so why not park up by Stanton Moor and walk down into the village (Stanton in Peak) for a refreshment stop at this great little inn.

A splendid Sunday spent in the warmth of the Flying Childers Inn, this pub is everything about a small village, beautiful and quaint just like Stanton in the peak, inside your welcomed by the lovely Richard and Sophie, who have great knowledge on their gins, they have so many on offer for a small village pub. For those who like beer - that is there a plenty with many on tap including Thornbridge ales as well as Bass, Guinness and Stella. A lovely warm fire will wait for you in the colder months and make it feel all cosy and so snug you’ll never want to leave along with some characters from the village and their friendly dogs which add to the charm. All in all a beautiful place to visit and if your lucky they may have some pork pies available - they are delicious.

This has always been one of my favourite Peak pubs and we brought friends here following a walk last month. Previously we have enjoyed incredible game casserole, the best chicken soup I have ever eaten, home-made ice-cream and other unexpected delights. This time we got very ordinary sandwiches with no side salad, a tiny baked potato served with toast (!), and a very average vegan burger. In fact the menu seems to have become mostly vegan, which is fine if you happen to be vegan or its done really well, which this isn't. We had beer which was good, and fresh orange juice which turned out to be cordial (they replaced it). Also, the dog-friendly reputation means that the pub is full of dogs wandering around. The dog owner at the table next to ours (inches away) told us that their dog wouldn't bite so long as we didn't touch it, so we moved to the other room where there was one dog that kept barking and three labradors roaming about - the room is only 14x12 feet in size so you can imagine how far from relaxing this was, particularly as one labrador's owners were laughing about how flatulent their dog is! Also, the strong smell of dog, flatulent or not, overwhelms the nice old pub smell of beer and log fires. Just disappointing really.

The Flying Childers is a pub in the village of Stanton in the Peak and the winner of Unspoilt pub of the year 2019. We stayed in the village whilst exploring the Peak District and visited the pub twice. What a fantastic friendly place! Everyone was welcoming and chatty. The local Ale was great. Live music on Saturday night was excellent. Sunday Boule in the carpark. Great community atmosphere. A must if you are visiting the area. We will be back!

What a lovely pub. We visited on a soggy June day- desperate for the toilet and some lunch (in that order). The first was easily sorted as was the second with a good choice of lunchtime light meals (at very reasonable prices) and good beers in a lovely, environment. The publican was excellent- very welcoming and friendly- nothing was too much trouble for him, we only wish we lived closer so that we could visit more regularly.

My husband and I had lunch with my in-laws in the main room of this village pub on our most recent visit home to Derbyshire from Canada, and I expected it to be much like many, many others we've frequented in the area over the years. But the Flying Childers is something special. We sat at a table near the bar and chatted with the owner Richard - he and his wife Sophie have kept all of the original old-fashioned charm while adding some modern touches here and there (like a menu full of vegetarian and vegan options), and it all just works, perfectly. Really good home-cooked food (I highly recommend the sweet potato burger), warm and friendly service, a cozy, traditional atmosphere, but also something indefinable, that elevates it to the quintessential British pub experience. This is now our favourite pub, and will be top of the list for our next visit.

First impressions are great, the barman/owner was extremely accomodating with us and saw to us straight away.There was a lovely warm fire on the go and it was very cosy inside.I adore my old pubs with old fashioned decor, so this is perfect.We ordered a pint and ordered some grub.The menu was my sort of menu, no al-la-carte rubbish nor an array of mixed up choices you find in other established public Houses.Plain and simple, choice of soup, homemade, choice of hot and cold sarnies and even the local pudding. Enough to tie us on till tea time but not enough to ruin it.I had a lovely hot ham and cheese paninni, followed by a bakewell pudding and cream. Absolutely gorgeous and not overpowering or sat in my stomach like a house brick.My son and partner had two courses also, sandwich with a pudding, with drinks, cost us £25. There eventually was a steady flow of people, all having snacks and all enjoying the Christmas break. There is a nice selection of ales, so there would be something for everyone. If you like al-la-carte fancy food, leather sofas and music to shred your ear drums, keep away.If you love, old country laid back pub, good food, but not overpowering, friendly and welcoming people then this is your place.Will Deffo be visiting again.

We had originally set off in the mist from outside The Flying Childers and after a long circular walk taking in the old Lead Mining Village of Winster we arrived back at the Flying Childers inn. As we approached the Inn we were welcomed by a dozen or more folk siting outside in the warm November sunshine . We had been walking for 4 hours and we entered the Inn passed the small items of bread and jams for sale and ordered our beer and Pork Pies. The Flying Childers is most definitely a proper country pub steeped in tradition. It may be 2015 but it could well have been 1955. The beer was excellent and the pork pie delicious. There was a Halloween theme but it was such an atmosphere with several families and their children that for a moment I imagined it to be Christmas time although one look through the window incidentally set in rather thick walls reminded me that Mother Nature had thrown in a day never to be forgotten.

This pub always feels like a step back in time, with a friendly landlord, chatty locals and very well kept beer. No modern gimmicks just good beer, lovely atmosphere and nice bar snacks, which is all you need.We sat in the garden as we had dogs with us, although it is a dog friendly pub and we could have taken them inside, but ours are not the most sociable! The garden is quaint and private and a relaxing place for a drink. We ordered roast pork cobs and roast potatoes and can honestly say they were delicious. All in all a lovely way to spend a Sunday lunchtime. We will definitely go back.

Popped into this pub after a lovely walk in the Peaks. What a nice find! A great CAMRA pub, with good real ales £3.10 pint. It has a simple bar menu, but fantastically priced. A PROPER ham, not supermarket plastic stuff, cob for £2!!! Better value than Tesco! And add £1.20 for a load of great roast potatoes on the side!My partner had a hot roast pork and stuffing cob with roast potatoes £3.90. And I had the cheese platter £4.95. Served with homemade pickles. Sat in the beer garden as it was such a lovely day. The food was excellent, simple, good value, and just what we needed after a walk and washed down with some good local ale. What more can you want?!Seriously recommend this pub if you want a good pint and a quick light bite!

Great small local pub serving excellent ales which was a pleasure to visit. Open fires provide a great atmosphere. You can even purchase local jams etc which are displayed in the entrance. Definitely worth a visit. Food is served which I cannot comment on because we only stopped off for a drink.

We visited the Peaks for New Year and went to The Flying Childers pub on two occasions. There was a good selection of beers and whiskey served up by friendly and welcoming bar staff. On New Year's Eve there was free food and the local people were friendly. We also sampled the home made soup at lunch time, which was absolutely delicious and perfect following a cold and rainy walk. This pub is highly recommended.

We came here for a few drinks on Saturday evening with friends and had a lovely time. There are two rooms, both with traditional pub decor. It was a quite place to chat and catch up with friends.There was a selection of good quality real ales and bar snacks. The pub has won numerous awards from CAMRA over the years and it is easy to see why.The locals were very friendly and accommodating. We are looking forward to returning again in the near future and trying the food.

Cannot comment on the food as we only had a drink however what we saw certainly looked tasty. Friendly people with a nice selection of real ales (Camra 2012 pub of the year) Really comfortable beer garden with plenty of shade if you want it. You can also pick up homemade jams and chutneys in here. Will be back

Arrived around 10:45 am on 10/11/24 only to be informed that there was no hot food being served until 11:15 due to a take away order. Others in front of us left and we reluctantly ordered two coffees, a flapjack and a Pork Pie instead of the full cooked breakfasts we’d hoped for. We were charged twice for the Pork Pie, which we pointed out and were subsequently refunded for. We sat at a table that had the previous occupants breakfast plate on it (which was never cleared, considering the waiting on staff weren’t serving any food at the time) and waited for our coffee which did not arrive. We fetched it ourselves from the counter, at which point around 11:05, they started taking breakfast orders again. The place seemed poorly managed and why you’d turn away valued customers for a take away order is beyond me.

We went for Sunday lunch and it was probably the best I've had, the meat melted in your mouth and the veg was brilliant with meaty gravy

Called here this morning before going for a walk round Matlock bath. Lovely quaint little tea shop with welcoming servers. Just had drinks but the menu stated a variety of food and cakes. Great prices also. Would call again as lots of Covid restrictions in place so felt safe.
