The Hollingwood Hotel in Chesterfield

Good food and great service from Chloe!

Chloe greeted us pleasantly on entering the pub. She served us with our drinks straight away. After choosing our table we ordered our food. This arrived a reasonable time later. It was as we expected, nicely cooked by Kerry. The down side. There was no red wine. Chloe explained that there had been a party the previous night and stocks had run out. I don't think that is a reasonable excuse. Obviously the person in charge of stocking the bar didn't take this event into consideration. The pub is large. It seems large pubs are hard to make welcoming. Also expensive to heat, and this is a pet hate for us. They can't be made cozy and this is not appealing especially in the winter months.

Food came really quickly and was lovely and hot. Chloe was flotting around everywhere making sure everyone in the pub was served and happy.

Food was really tasty.. servers was excellent can’t fault it and it reasonable price too .. didn’t have to wait long for our food ..

Came here for food with my mum and the food was amazing and got served by the landlady leann she is very polite and so friendly, always greats us with a smile and the pub is clean and tidy would highly recommend

Lovely food great staff chef wonderfully barmaid went out her way to accommodate us and the manager is very friendly and a great hostess

had a great experience when we came here for food and drinks, ellie on the bar was very polite and provided quick and friendly service, would 100% visit again!

Very nice place, popped in for the first time, was served by a very helpful girl called Ellie who did her best to ensure we had the best service possible.

there was a really lovely vibe here, food came out quick and was delicious. the girls on bar are lovely and attentive, will definitely be returning!

Landlady very polite and helpful and food great too

Me and my nan went in for a meal on saturday last week, food was amazing. Our sever was a lovely, kind girl and made us feel welcome. Also Chloe and Sarah the bar staff were extremely nice aswell.

Had the small scampi wasn't bad for the money at all filled a hole. Staff were nice beer reasonably priced

Great chilled out pub, good food and great serving staff and chef (Leanne, Chloe and Jay!). Decent sized car park if visiting and a lovely park and canal nearby if you fancy a post food walk to work off the calories!

Clean pub welcoming and food is good

Lovely place to sit and relax with friends service was friendly Lilly behind the bar was amazing with recommendations on what to have and had positive attitude throughout the night Would definitely recommend going

Love coming here with friends for a game of pool and drinks, really friendly staff and food is brill, landlady friendly and always has a laugh and joke with you, Chloe brill at making cocktails for me and my girlfriend when we visit

really lovely staff, riley and chloe are very attentive to the patrons keep a lighthearted atmosphere

Staff are really friendly we always come with family and friends, great cocktails, great tv’s for sports and also been to a few functions here, overall a great venue with everything you could need

Huge pub with lots of seating areas inside and out. Friendly staff. Nice and clean.

Last night was our friends 50th wedding anniversary, which was hosted in the upstairs party room. The room is for around 100 guests. There's plenty of dance floor space and a bar, lots of tables and chairs. The room gets very warm, so light clothing is advisable. We had a most wonderful time. Special thanks to Riley and Chloe, who did a great job behind the bar.

Had a great lunch with family here, staff were really accommodating

Great lunch here for a meeting, cracking staff!

Went here once and the food was revolting. It's a shame because there aren't many alternatives round here. I'd pretty much forgotten about this place's existence until I was reminded by their abysmal sounding "rock fest" which i can hear all the way from the far end of Inkersall. So they're not only a rubbish, soulless chain pub but, in the name of profit, they will also gladly prevent other people from enjoying peace and quiet in their gardens, West Wood or Ringwood park. I suspect they'd argue that it was just for one day/evening and the attendees enjoyed themselves but does their enjoyment outweigh the annoyance inflicted on countless others? Not in my book.

Eat here once and the food was of poor quality. Also very much not appreciating having to listen to the rock fest event in my own back garden, music is far too loud.

The service this lunch time was god awful. Not sure of the calibre of staff being employed.Ordered two meals and only one turned up. When asked the bar staff did not know why because the person who took the order was in the toilet. Ignored for 30 mins while they continued serving customers, came up and insisted we only ordered one meal and had attitude stating 'I asked you 3 times for anything else'. When told two were asked for stated 'well I didn't hear you'. Rather than owning up and apologising or trying to keep the customer happy instead tried to make out it was our fault. 40 mins after placing the order they offered to order the second meal.

We stopped for food here on our way home and what a hidden gem. The food was excellent value for money and very tasty. The lady who served us, Chloe, was an absolute star. She was polite, friendly and very pleasant.

Quite possibly the best fish and chips I've had away from the coast- great batter and chips are amazing. Worth a visit for the fish and chips alone!

Called in for a burger and a pint which was great. Excellent food and a great place to watch sport. Staff were friendly everything you need.

Great evening with mates friendly local good selection of drinks fair price great service good to have the Craic with the Staff look forward to going back

Bought a large red wine, took a sip it tasted like vinegar, totally awful. Ask the bar staff if they could replace as it was a full glass, after they returned from outside speaking to the land lady I was told ‘ the land lady says, because you have had a sip, we cannot pour back into the bottle so if you want another, you will have to pay again.’ Safe to say I left the wine and didn’t buy anymore drinks. Terrible service and very disgusting to think they would pour back into a bottle anyway. Cost me £16.80 for a large wine and a beer, a wine I couldn’t even drink as it was that disgusting.

Great family pub. Live music too

Was recomended to go for a sunday carvery.......but alas limited veg selection, limted meat selection even though it was only 14:00 hours. Mash potato was just like a mashed potato no seasoning, bland veg, over done yorkshire puddings, watery gravy ond very limited supply of condiments. Peas were ok, roast potatoes and stuffing too. I would not recommend here for a carvery, i cant say anything about the normal menu as i have never had anything from thr expesive normal menu £10 for a burger? Will not be eating here again.

Friendly. Kind. Kerry & Leann were lovely. Nice food, great atmosphere. We're on holiday and we're made to feel very welcome

Come in today to try the new Yorkshire wrap, wow this was so tasty. Great lamb and toasties and made that much nicer by the team in today, thank you so much Olivia, Lily, Katie, Paige, Jay, Leann, Durand.

Olivia was lovely. Kept checking we were ok. The chicken burger was amazing.

Good Atmosphere, lovely people and leann was so lovely and Polite on the bar and the food was brilliant

Just been for dinner. Food very good and reasonable prices a drink's good price. Definitely be back soon.

Came for Sunday lunch, the food was lovely and will definitely be returning.

The service was excellent. Polite and quick service.

Paige and Lewis are absolutely amazing at their jobs and I was extremely impressed with their service x

great atmosphere nice pub a great team behind the bar and in the kitchen Now better with a Sunday Carvery

Valentine's Dinner. Very well looked after with excellent Table Service, Decor/ambience and great food

very warm welcome as always bar staff very good quick service food is brilliant as always good pub

Went here for a meeting, great pub with a fantastic function room, looks like a lovely place for a wedding. Food was spot on too

We enjoyed a tasty carvery with a good selection of meat. Would've been great to have cauliflower cheese too! Good service.

Chef Natasha, Carver Durrand, Bar and front of house Katie & Olivia for a new Sunday carvery at Hollingwood. Staff great, food super tasty and a great addition to the menu. Thank you all for great food and service xx

Went for a wake following my friends funeral and the staff were brilliant

The staff were very welcoming, great atmosphere, had food here a lot of times and never been disappointed, reasonably priced

Came for the first day of the carvery. Was lovely food, only suggestion is to make the stuffing available for all and thicker gravy but that is more a personal preference. The staff were friendly and approachable and nothing was to much trouble. The carver was happy and sociable. Overall was a lovely experience and will definitely be coming back.

Good food nice carvery today quick table service friendly atmosphere

Hosted my mum's 70th birthday here. Lovely place lovely staff lovely food. When I host again this would be my first choice. If they would have us as we are a rowdy bunch 😁

Leanne and all the staff did am amazing job of my wedding day thankyou alll so much and thanks for coping with me ha x

Very friendly staff excellent food Would certainly recommend it

Very nice food good service reasonable price

Just what we needed…. Good beer, wholesome food and friendly staff with a fun atmosphere.

Friendly atmosphere, very helpful lovely staff Olivia the server was amazing and nothing was to much for her.

Burgers are delicious, staff are always friendly and polite, very clean pub, my battery died on my phone and they even charged it up for me amazing pub 🥂👍🏻

Great hosts and friendly atmosphere

Bar maid was good as gold, kept a bunch of lads that were staying in the area drinking for the remainder of the night, introduced us to the locals, and kept us drinking until close, Paige is an asset to the business and I have no doubt will continue to help the pub thrive.

Staff friendly and service excellent. Food was lovely too

Our local pub, we visit regularly to eat and drink. Food is always quick to come out and always hot. Lovely, clean environment and friendly staff. Would recommend!

Leann was very pleasant on the bar food came out fast and was very nice

Good service . Helpful landlady

From walking in you are welcomed with a smile, then ordered drinks and a meal very helpful with food orders,the food came and you could have been any top restaurant steak cooked perfect as we asked, would recommend anyone to go.

Lovely presentation outside which made me pull over and eat while working in the area. Lovely welcome and efficient service. Great value for money food.

My wife and I enjoyed our meal, hunter's chicken and curry, at the Hollingwood, a spacious, pleasant bar area, we were seated in one of the cosy snugs, and Leann and chef Kerry did a great job.

Really nice food. Great prices & gent on the bar very enthusiastic & happy to help. Nicest bar in our area!

Lovely and friendly staff with amazing food and great atmosphere

Atmosphere was very nice and Christmassy, food was nice and good value, good selection of kids meals

Lovely meal out with the family. Food was lovely and arrived in a timely manner by our lovely waitress Olivia. Nothing was too much trouble and we really enjoyed our visit. Thanks x

Food is great, good portion size. Staff extremely helpful and friendly. Great improvement. Would recommend x

Very good service, good hot food at reasonable prices.

We love this pub and the food is fab and real value for money. Leann is always so welcoming.

The server Leann was friendly and approachable, and checked everything was OK during our meal. The chef Kerry cooked our meals to perfection, the presentation of the meals, especially the dessert was fantastic! Very friendly and enjoyable visit.

Fab pub with fantastic management and staff! Dog friendly bar area with great food and drinks. Large function room upstairs which caters for weddings, parties and private events, along with other public events held throughout the year 😁

Nice pub, good range of spirits and big screen for sports.

Lovely food, lovely staff ,very spacious pud , entertainment space upstairs,in post lockers at the side,

Excellent service from the bar staff and the chef food was fantastic

Some of your staff need training on customer service very rude sarcastic I came for a babyshower and stood at bar waiting to be served and could here them not good at all

Had a private function here and the buffet they did was lovely, the staff were excellent and polite, would highly recommend 👍

Always friendly staff, very clean and good pint, come on a regular basis with work friends and atmosphere is great, tv's for sport are great

We had dinner here as the hotel we were staying at was fully booked for dinner on Saturday night.

Lovely pub grub for a Saturday lunch time. Highly recommend the Surf and Turf. Husband had the Southern fried hunters chicken which was also great.

We was told the food was amazing and worth a visit. We arrived and it was empty wich was a shock... ordered food and drinks and it came within 20 minutes great.... Ordered mixed grill and 1 gammon steak meal... Oh dear that is were it all started to go wrong.... the mixed grill was just about average at a stretch ... the chicken must have been microwaved or pre cooked as it was as dry as you could get,onto the Lincolnshire sausage, this was fine until I got a large piece of bone about 3mm in diameter now the steak wow wow wow un eatable, cooked perfect by the way but you just could not chew it at all........ now onto the 8 oz gammon steak cooked ok ish but the fat on the gammon was more in volume that the actual gammon meat and extreamly salted.... All in all not a good visit and aid just under £30... Plus side the egg on the mixed grill was lovely..

Walked in and we received instant dirty looks from the barmaid. We were immediately made to feel unwelcome and it’s just shocking in terms of customer service. A smile wouldn’t go a miss. Sat down to discover no kids menu so completely useless and not family friendly whatsoever. Read through the responses to negative reviews. Manager is clearly illiterate and needs some training in PR. No chance I’m giving my hard earned money to this establishment so went elsewhere.

Attended a party here upstairs, the room was nicely laid out and a decent size. A bar upstairs too so we didn't have to keep going down to the main bar.

Had a great atmosphere plenty of food choices friendly staff

Nice seating area on front of pub, very warm in sunshine.

Nice place but food is pricey for what you get though staff are very friendly

Part of a wedding party was told food served till 8.30pm at 8pm tried to order food but was told we were too late, then when they found out we were part of the wedding party being held the next day, oh we'll do you something we were told, I got a chicken burger and my wife got hunters chicken nowt special just your ordinary chain pub grub. Came to pay and the staff member insisted my wife had had a curry which she didn't, then got arsey insisted that she had and charged as such, which was ok by me as curry was cheaper. The buffet at the reception was a joke and nowhere near enough, after someone complained they put a few bowls of chips out. Staff attitude was a awful definitely won't be going back 😕

Had our wedding reception here the other month, the place looked fantastic, they did a brilliant job setting up and nothing was too much for them! All the staff was lovely and friendly, it genuinly couldn't gave gone any smoother. Thanks guys! ❤️

it was sort of ok up until i went to the toilet and was amazed to see a rat scurry from the bar opening and ran up the walkway into another room. eyes wide open whilst in toilet then returned ,paid and got out of there.

Lovely place staff can’t do enough for you, will always go above and beyond, great selection of drinks and good gluten free menu

food was ok - lager was flat but the problem was being accused of stealing a pint glass when leaving the pub. even searched my wifes bag. guess what - no glass -- poor apology given. never again . was shocked..

The best service I can say with have had in any bar for quite some years. The food was really nice and best pub food we have all had in a long time!. Highly highly recommended

Good food friendly atmosphere...

We attended my nephews wedding reception this weekend and what a farce. They chose to set up the room themselves as what they asked for was ridiculous, they paid £250.00 for the room and the DJ. They were told they had to clear everything away themselves by 9am the next morning. There was supposed to be 10 tables and there was only 8 so some guests had to sit on the floor to eat. The music was muffled and when it came to the speeches you could not make out what they were saying. They paid for a complementary drink for guests on arrival and asked for trinkets to be put around the men’s bottles and the women’s prosecco, there was no member of staff waiting to give the guests their drink instead they were shoved on a table at the side of the entrance doors, half the trinkets were missing, we never found them. When the end of the evening was near we wanted to put the cake back in its box but it was nowhere to be seen, we asked to see the landlords but they had gone off to Butlins apparently. The customer service well there wasn’t any. They had a sweet cart for the kids and they supplied glass jars with no lids for the sweets you brought yourself, when I told the landlord this is dangerous if the kids smash one they could get hurt he said that’s all they had, health and safety obviously does not apply to them. Would NOT recommend this venue at all. P. Hammond.

Staff very helpful, has a very nice atmosphere, very prompt service, didn't have a meal but wish I had after seeing the extensive menu. Overall very nice pub to visit.

We travelled up for a wedding in a nearby hotel. We went to the Hollingwood for some food. Unfortunately when we got there the kitchen was closed. It was a quiet night so it was understandable. But the lady behind the bar was fantastic and went above and beyond. She called a member of staff to come in so we could eat!! What magnificent service. We were so grateful as there was about 20 of us. The best service I can say with have had in any pub for quite some years. And the food was very very tasty, best pub food we have all had in a very long time. Highly highly recommended
