Called in the pub a couple of times whilst stopping in the village. Lovely interior, although we sat outside. Dog friendly, lovely staff abs reasonably priced. The pub doesn’t serve pub food but has started serving pizza, whilst we didn’t have any (we’d already eaten) it smelt and looked lovely. Really hope this pub flourishes as it’s so nice and the staff were lovely.

Great pub......IF you are one of the locals or affiliated with, otherwise expect a cold welcome and to be stared at like you have 3 heads, if you head in after 5pm there's a group of locals that sit to the right of the door as you walk in and be prepared to the cut atmosphere with a knife.

Once in Frosterley You are at the Inn. On the Right opposite a Green, park out back, above their Bin! Pleasant People, Helpful Staff. Very efficient, yet open to a Laugh. Kinda Olde Worlde ; the 'Ladies' are very Clean. The Gents : Well after a Pint or Two it won't matter to those who've 'Been'. We Ate from a Very Nice Selection of tasty Food for Lunch. If You're Travelling up or Down Dale, it won't cost you A Bunch!!

We called in today as had been for a walk around the reservoir. Ordered a glass of red wine and a Prosecco. Also some lasagna and mince and dumplings. The wine was poor, Prosecco was flat. We were absolutely frozen as sat trying to eat our lunch with the front door wide open whilst they brought a load of deliveries in through the front of the pub!! I just can’t understand why they would do that. It was a freezing cold day and no consideration for the poor customers. Food just absolutely tasteless and the place had no atmosphere! The girls behind the bar just unfriendly. Not a good experience and never to return!!

The Frosterley Inn is amazing. My husband and I both had pork sunday dinners and they were fantastic - big portion sizes so you never leave hungry, really delicious with a large selection of veg to go with the melt in the mouth pork and yorkshire puddings. The service was brilliant, with all the staff being very accomodating and friendly. The pub itself is stunning. Will definitely be returning very soon!!

The Lady bartender could not count how many beers me and my friends drunk (it was 2 per person). I paid for the first two. Then she took the money for the first two and at the end of our "journey" she wanted money for 4 beers. I told her that we drunk only 4 and I paid fot previous two... But she that we drunk 4 after I paid for two... So we had to pay for 6 beers but we drunk only 4. The place is a real crap. No good beers.

Hice un regalo especial para los niños visitan Polar Express en Stanhope y yo queríamos un lugar para comer en el camino. Busqué en internet y encontré este lindo y pequeño pub. Les envié un correo electrónico antes de tiempo y antes de las comidas. El personal era maravilloso, mi familia (incluyendo a mi esposo un poco quisquillosos) así que optamos por el pescado y las patatas fritas y una hamburguesa hombre en llamas. Puedo decir honestamente que nunca he visto comer mucho. Las raciones eran grandes y me pareció una gran relación calidad-precio. El lugar necesita un poco de ahí hasta 4 estrellas arreglaran pero eso no debería desanimarte de disfrutar de una comida rápida y cerveza o dos. Le envío mis gracias a Tracy y Lisa, recordaremos a este pequeño lugar tanto como le Polar Express.

Habiendo reservado una cabaña vacacional en Frosterley tenía ganas de saber lo que estaba disponible donde podíamos comer y beber. Le envié un correo electrónico al pub y nos dieron una respuesta inmediata de Tracy que muy amablemente envió un menú y una lista de eventos que estaban por semana especialmente.Cuando llegamos nos dimos presentó y se hizo muy bienvenidos por todo el mundo y se prestó especial atención a nuestra manera de agua por Labradoodle y caprichos.Tuve que asistir a un funeral en el miércoles, y aunque en esta ocasión particular de comida no estaba disponible Tracy nos ofrecieron darnos una cena, ya que ella estaba trabajando esa noche que nos ahorró tener que viajar después de un largo día. Estuvimos muy agradecidos por este gesto. La comida estaba muy buena y cuatro placas limpias habla por sí mismo.!!La gente en el pub también era increíblemente amable y fue agradable ver como un espíritu comunitario, especialmente en la noche de bingo donde también tuve la ventaja de ganar 20 libras.Nada era demasiado para Tracy y Lisa, todo lo que puedo decir si alguna cerca de dar este pub una Frosterley ir ya que no le defraudará.

14 de nosotros alquilamos una casa en Frosterley para mi marido de 30 y queríamos un lugar local para comer en la noche del viernes. Encontré una página para este pub en Facebook y envió un mensaje a Tracy, que no podría haber sido más servicial. Ella nos envió un menú, así que podíamos pedir por adelantado, estaba encantado de tratar con todas las solicitudes poco o extra, e incluso con una esquina del pub con 30 decoraciones sin ni siquiera preguntar que era precioso! La comida era buena, el servicio fue rápido y el personal era muy amable. Pasamos una noche fabulosa y todos los hombres de regresar el sábado a ver fútbol toda la tarde; me dijo que el ambiente entonces era simplemente genial! Así que gracias por ser tan acogedor, realmente disfrutamos visitar su pub.

Unfortunately this pub has no disabled toilets and no wheel chair access . My partner and I visited for a hot meal and a drink and where surprised at the rundown state of the car park at the rear of the pub ( rubbish bins overflowing and vermin in clear view ) as I am wheel chair bound I was not able to enter the premises and we made a hastily retreat to another local pub which has wheel chair access. The pub is clearly stuck in the dark ages and needs updating as soon as possible to drag it up to modern standards .

Attended the childrens Halloween party with my daughter and granddaughters and they had a wonderful afternoon. It was value for money costing only £4.50 for the little ones and free for my daughter and I. They got a spooky mocktail and pizza which they enjoyed, plenty to keep them entertained with crafts, balloon making, disco and games. The staff were lovely and friendly and overall we had a lovely afternoon.
