The Lone Star Cafe Bar in High Peak

Fantastic meal for four, one of the best I have had. You won't be going home hungry. Take the advise of the staff if they say something is enough to feed four, it is and more. Great service, great vibe, great food. Dave Nutt. Peterborough.

We visited 2 days after the lock down was lifted great food first class service and good value Nice cocktails and staff very pleasant and help full , if you fancy a different cocktail don’t be afraid to ask Food fantastic I had the slow cooked beef burger Very tasty no faults I have given them five based on taste , value and service Also a modern fresh feel to the decorations and spotless clean and covid Aware Go and enjoy Biker Blade xx

Prior to the latest lockdown we stayed a few nights in Buxton and to give this venue a go for the first time. We had already booked via Facebook and the staff were brilliant, taking us to our table and advising us what the procedures’ were to follow when inside. Each table had a Perspex screen between them and it we felt comfortable with all the safety procedures. The food was brilliant however be warned portion sizes are large and as a real ale lover they did have a couple of beers for me to try. It is entered via a steep flight of stairs so may not be suitable for everyone. As we had heard portion sizes were generous my wife asked for a small portion of chilli which was delicious. My steak plate was huge.

Great service and welcome. Staff very attentive. Food was absolutely outstanding. The chilli cheese dirty fried were unreal. Cocktails for Halloween were gorgeous! Really made the effort for the night to offer customers a special night. Large portions. Loved it. My steak tacos were so big! Great choice on the menu. The manager or owner even said to us if we didn't see our usual cocktail on the menu then they would try there best to make it for us!

Awesome ‘ great staff and food . Much better than ‘chain restaurants ‘ and my highlight of my trip from Leicester !

Food came piping hot and was so good!!! A great selection of food to choose from, staff couldnt be more helpful. Our first visit and will definitely be back!! Customer service made it all the better.

Really enjoyed it tonight - three years since we last came. With the Covid-19 distancing measures in place, everything feels more spaced out and relaxed, I for one wish that this was the norm. Only spoilt at the end by a very shouty group that came in - totally unnecessary. Good to see the business still operating and the food was fantastic. Will be back!

Booked a table for 4 for Sunday evening to celebrate my daughter's birthday during a weekend away in Buxton. The first clue might have been when we walked in, my daughter carrying her all too obvious balloons, no mention of it by the man in charge, no acknowledgement, no smile. We were sat down and first words out of his mouth were "right, we need this table back at 7.15 to get it cleaned for a 7.30 booking". Nice start. When he came back a couple of minutes later to take drinks orders, and I asked for a few more minutes as we weren't quite ready, he rolled his eyes and turned away. Even my 2 kids looked at me and asked "why did he roll his eyes?" And sadly the service got not much better, all very hurried and matter of fact and totally devoid of personal touch and what we might call "customer service". "Can I change my fries from skin on to sweet potato?" "Yes, but you will need to pay the difference" etc... And at the end, still no acknowledgement of birthday, no "complimentary", nothing. Total opposite to the dining experience elsewhere the night before when we were made to feel like customers should. It isn't cheap, but you don't mind paying for the whole package. But a large chunk was missing.And what a pity....because the food was pretty good actually.

We visited as a family of 4 whilst on holiday and were immediately impressed with the decor and cleaniliness. Staff greeted us warmly and professionally and the food was absolutely stunning.

My fiancé and I enjoyed our meals here on a Saturday evening. We had the spicy chicken and the spicy beef, both served with chips and salad. The food was great quality and portions were large. The restaurant was very busy and we did have to wait over an hour for our food to be served, which was disappointing. However, we were given free drinks in compensation, which we were very grateful for. It’s still a great restaurant to visit, but don’t be in a hurry.

Really good Mexican food, great service and very safe Covid secure operation. The ribs were huge and super meaty with a lovely BBQ sauce and great fries. The steak Fajitas were also excellent, large portions, tender meat and all the extras good too.

A busy Saturday night and very good it was. Access to upstairs is just that so it might not suite everyone however there may be food seating downstairs, ask.Precautions we're good. Staff excellent. The food was brilliant very enjoyable indeed. The rib eye steak was a treat and the burger and enchiladas I am told were good.Now Lone star would have 5 stars but I felt a little rushed which I get in a way as a table makes money if refilled. However there are no sweets or coffees or we weren't offered any.But it was good in every other way.

We're slightly early for our reservation but staff managed to seat us without any problem. Food was superb as per usual. However, it all felt slightly rushed. As soon as main plates were cleared our suprise cake was brought out. (Many Thanks for the addition of candles). Yet before even taking the desert plates away we were told we needed to pay as the table was required for another party. A enjoyable evening however it felt rushed yet i believe this is down to the current Covid restrictions.

Booked this restaurant during our visit to Buxton, based on reviews on Trip Advisor, and wasn't disappointed.From walking through the door to walking back out again was a pure delightful experience.The Covid precautions were the best you can get, with tables converted into mini booths, hand sanitisers and all staff wearing masks. However this did not depreciate the welcome, pleasant, efficient staff gave us.The service was excellent,and all this before even tasting the food, which was to die for.Myself and my wife shared the Haloumui bites, which easily satisfied us both with the quantity supplied. Wonderfully presented too.Then we both had the Fajitas, myself having the Steak and my wife the chicken. They even offer you mild, medium or spicy option.They were the easily the best Fajitas we have eaten in a restaurant. We both felt slightly guilty that we could not complete the 4th tortilla.All washed down with a couple of pints of Estrella and the 2 for 1 Porn-star Martini cocktails, completing the experience.Cannot recommend highly enough.Just wish they had a branch closer to our home in Lancashire.

Wonderful place to eat. We were a group of 7 and they made it work even with the covid regs.The food was wonderful and plentiful, my steak was cooked to my request and was lovely. The staff here are wonderful, putting up with our Blind Date game and laughing along. Thankyou for having us.

I had a lovely steak cooked to perfection, My husband said his fajitas were amazing, excellent service and friendly staff who were Covid conscious

Second time Iv Been here, food Even better than last time, the Parma fries are amazing!! Social distancing in place, lots of places to wash hands!

In normal times it is very good. However tonight felt very rushed, no sooner had we finished the starter, the main course arrived. I guess pressure to cover tables in this socially distanced world!

Extensive menu with good choices of food. Covid procedure for checking in was good (QR code) but no social distancing possible while we were waiting to be admitted - downstairs or up in the restaurant. This was simply due to lack of space.Be aware that it can get very lively. We were there when a group of well refreshed guys were very loud and let's just say, not careful with what they were shouting, especially in front of families. To the credit of the staff though, they were asked to be quiet.It's not fine dining but nothing wrong with that! Service was very good as was the food.

We could not get in for dinner either night that we were in Buxton so we decided on a late lunch instead.First we were treated to a stag party just leaving and the stag dressed as a very brightly coloured frogman. I took a picture of the groom and the staff asked if I would share it with them so that they could put it on the FB page!After that it was easy to order food and drinks with both coming in a relatively short space of time. Both were delicious. I had mixed steak and chicken fajitas and there was so much, perhaps too much, food. This was definitely an American-sized portion. As for the fajitas themselves, after having lived in San Antonio, TX for a while, these are probably the best fajitas I have tasted outside of that state, which is the home of Tex-Mex in the south.The only think that I would say let them down was we were told we had the table until 4.45pm and at 4.05pm, when we hadn't finished our drinks but had paid, we were asked to vacate our table. The reason we were given is that the people that were booked for our table had arrived. Now instead of asking them to wait, come back or just put them on another table (there were only 3 occupied tables in the whole restaurant) we felt pressured to move. It was a disappointing end to a great meal and tainted a little the experience when there seemed no need for it and for the sake of 40 minutes. It would have been nice to stay for another drink - we ended up going elsewhere to have that.

You’re spoiled for choice in Buxton, but this place is as good a restaurant to stop in as any. Service was great, burgers were delicious and portion size is massive! Restaurant gets very loud here though so not a place for an intimate dinner

Pleasant family meal, the children loved the pizzas and the sharing starter was generous. They were offering the eat out to help out incentive which was a bonus. Good atmosphere, friendly and professional staff and we were served punctually.

Helpful and attentive staff and food really rather good but let down by being very noisy, in fact so noisy at one stage it was difficult to talk across our table. To be fair the waiter did offer is another table in the bar area but it was empty and soul-less in there. Maybe it was just the other patrons who had decided that shouting was a good-sport so I suppose we can't really blame the staff I suppose.

After a poor start to our visit to Buxton, this really cheered us up! The staff are absolutely amazing and can’t do enough for you! We both had the sirloin steak which was unbelievable! If you visit Buxton make sure this is top of your eating list! Also, the gin cocktails are unreal!

Great food, the portions are large but our waitress offered to box up anything we had left. Such good value for money and the staff are lovely while having to combat this whole COVID thing. The whole place felt very clean and operating within the new rules. Absolutely worth five stars

May seem strange but they give you too much food. Its nice food (typical but good tex-mex) but all our starters could have been mains. We ate most of our starters but we couldn't get anywhere near finishing the mains. Shame as it makes you feel slightly cheated. Staff were very nice and the place itself looks nice and clean. We wanted to book for 7 o'clock but were told they couldn't have us until 7:15 which seemed a little odd. We arrived at 7:15 and there were plenty of tables and other people already eating so not sure what the extra 15 mins was about. We were then told they needed the table back by 8:50 which didn't give us long to eat. Nevertheless we left about 9 and there were other tables free and nobody waiting. Strange. Anyway, go if you have a massive appetite, just be warned not to go too heavy on the starters.

Really good to see how they have adapted the restaurant to make it safe during these times. There are screens between tables (which actually I think improves the layout regardless of the necessity at present), you have to check in with your details on arrival and they even provide napkins to open bathroom doors.The food was excellent and the service attentive and friendly which made for a really enjoyable evening.Our only criticism/area to improve was that we were a little annoyed that the staff all wore face masks (positive!), BUT most of the time were around their chin and they all seemed to keep fiddling with the masks, moving them up and down to talk, often just before handling plates and drinks. It felt like we wanted to tell them to either leave them on and leave them alone, or just not wear them and keep distance!All in all though a nice restaurant with great food and great service.

Had an evening meal here with my husband. Freindly staff. Lovely cocktail. Large portions. Good choice on the menu. Would return if I came back to Buxton.

We visited on 4 August and were lucky to get the last unbooked table of the evening - they were fully booked. We’re not local and just came upon the restaurant but we’re very impressed with the Covid measures in place and the food. The staff were very friendly and helpfully pointed out our son’s choice was enormous so we could adjust our order. The food was delicious and generously portioned. All the staff were adhering to the safety measures and seemed to positively understand them and want to make them work (in a couple of places we’ve been to it’s been a lot more half hearted). Really enjoyed, thanks.

My husband and I visited the Lone Star cafe bar on 2nd August. The attention to detail with safety measures regarding COVID were exceptional even providing napkins if you wanted to use them to open doors handles to the toilets. Screens were in place to divide tables, and staff were disinfecting seats after customer use. As a couple who have both tested positive for the corona virus (my husband is a nurse) and understanding how ill it can make you I thought the standards of care to wards staff and customers was of the highest standard. We decided upon the express menu; two courses for £12. All the food was delicious including the cocktails. I recommend the garlic mushrooms and the vegetable fajitas. Excellent value for money. Thank you. We will be back!!

My girlfriend and I agree the burgers we've just had are some of the best we've ever had,massive praise indeed,we've ate a few in our time 😁. Staff very friendly and attentive,highly recommend,well done 👌

Visited last Sunday for our first girls gathering since COVID and we all wanted to go to Lonestar due to our last visit in January 2020. The same male waiter was working and he recognised us and greeted us warmly. He explained the new menu and helped with our dietary requirement. It’s good to see a Vegan burger on as well which was delicious. Service was prompt and all distancing rules and a check in were offered which is reassuring. All in all, another great meal, fabulous host and a future booking for September will be made. Thanks Lonestar.

Excellent evening meal enjoyed here this week. Staff exceptional and the food was great, with large portion sizes. We did not need the starters! Would recommend booking as it’s clearly very popular and was very busy. Social distancing is also being observed which mean less tables.We would return.

The food is really good and they prices are reasonable the waiters are very friendly and i love it so much 😁👍

Couldn't fault the place - that must be why it's so popular. We walked in and were given a table on a Saturday night with no reservation within 20 minutes. Staff were lovely even when they were so busy. The food - oh my goodness WOW, it was delicious! I had fish tacos (king prawns in sauce in tacos with fries and salad). Very unusual meal but just amazing. We had a bottle of wine too which was nice and we sat by the corner of the room and watched in Snow outside. An amazing experience. I will never forget this moment.

Called in before the theatre. In hindsight didnt need a starter as the mains were huge, but my popcorn mussels (pictured) off the specials board were lovely, as was my burger. The other half had 2 huge chicken burritos, my only criticism would be he said they were not hot enough but the staff next time said they could go even hotter if he asked. Wine reasonable (£5.50 for a large glass, over £2 cheaper than the place downstairs) and a decent tap selection. Bill also attached and not unreasonable at all. Will return!

A bit rowdy and the customers are packed-in a little tight. I guess this is the result of having a table in the bar. But great atmosphere.

Really nice hearty food, huge portions sizes. The chilli con carne was amazing and I nearly ate it all! Nice decor and helpful, friendly staff. Would definitely visit again if in the area.

What a cosy find on a wet and windy night! Lovely relaxed atmosphere and friendly service. The food was excellent with some imaginative touches. Not your average at all. Beer was good too.

Amazing place with amazing staff, fresh food that tastes so good !! Gluten free menu is fantastic and the kids menu also.something for everyone

Tasty food at reasonable prices in a restaurant with a lively atmosphere. Book ahead, it’s very popular. The portions are really good sizes and good selection of drinks.

First visit here and we were not disappointed. Nice ambience, friendly staff, could not fault it. Lovely tasty food, cannot wait to go back again!

Wow, this was a cracking find. Came early without booking on a Saturday evening and no problems fitting us in. A good start

Went out for lunch with my friends to the lonestar (which I have visited several times in the three years I’ve been living in buxton for university) every time I’ve visited before hand has been amazing, in the last two years I’ve heard more bad comments about lone star from my fellow colleagues but never let this affect my experiences I’ve already had, with this in mind I visited and I was absolutely appalled with the level of service and rudeness of staff members!! Spoken to like a child even though I’m 22 years of age, our food was tepid and tasted of washing up liquid complained to a staff member who asked what was wrong with the meal, in which he responded “I think that’s a bit extreme” and was in no way apologetic, never will return now and will warn all my friends not to visit.

We ate here for dinner the other Saturday evening as we were staying nearby. We were greeted very quickly on our arrival and then showed promptly to our table. The menu was large with plenty of choice. I opted for the Combo fajitis (chicken and BBQ pork) and hubby had the burger. Both were delicious. There's a lively ambience at this place, making it quite noisy, but it added to the energy. I'm glad we booked for 6.30pm as the 7.30pm slot seemed to be a few birthday parties and groups turning up, but we were all attended to. We really enjoyed it and shall definitely return. Nice to have this in Buxton.

Visited on Friday night with friends for a goodbye meal. Lonestar never disappoints! Huge portions and amazing staff and attentive as always. The quality of service is improving. If you're eating out in Buxton, this is the place to go!

Not very Mexican and not much chicken in my burrito. My partner’s vegetable fajitas was mostly onion. Overall poor value and not very good. Go to the Sacra Lounge instead, they serve genuine Mexican food and it’s delicious.

Visited Lonestar Saturday 26th for an evening meal. We were a booked group and I have a coeliac allergy which the male staff member handled with confidence and made me very warm and welcomed and not a dietary freak! He is a credit to the venue.

Came here for a Saturday night date with my wife. Food is wonderful and portions are epic. So much for your money! Highly recommended. Decent choice of beer (probably because the Buxton Brewery is next door). Only tiniest criticism is the service was a bit slow and the waitresses (most of whom I would say were 16-17) were standing around looking like they didn't know what to do and when we arrived, one of them was sat at the bar on their phone. We weren't in any rush so wasn't really a problem but just for future.

Good food, good service and a warm atmosphere. It is very convenient for eating gefore a show literally yards from the theatre.

Staff need more training, busy little restaurant! Be mindful of the steps ! Food arrived hot and massive portions ! Really good price for the amount of food !

Party of 13 on New Years Eve so we weren't the easiest to cater for but the food was excellent and the service even better from the young and attentive team. Portions are big so watch out! if you want simple burgers, ribs and Mexican staples then this place is great with a decent choice of draft beer. couldn't fault it

Delicious food Good value for money Nice atmosphere Friendly staff Chicken fajitas were delicious Thank you

We had a great experience with our server Dora and her staff. Food was amazing, loved the $3 Happy Margaritas, and our whole family had fun without spending a lot of money. Thank you Dora for making our 1st dinner out in San Antonio amazing.

Had a lovely time here. Beautiful food packed with flavour and scrummy drinks.

We went for an early dinner before a concert. The atmosphere is pleasant with lovely staff. It all looks newly furbished with fresh paintwork and clean restrooms. The food is Mexican with lots of choice. We had a sharing platter then steak with fries and salad. It was tasty and nicely presented. Plenty of it too. Will go there again for sure, this was our second visit and were not disappointed.

In the area briefly for a walk around Buxton we chanced upon the Lone Star.

Nice place with relaxed atmosphere. I thought the staff were excellent and really helpful. As a business traveller it can feel a little awkward eating out alone but these guys found me a nice quiet spot.

Today we had a family lunch and the service and food were exemplary. Good atmosphere and a wide choice of menu . Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Great place, great beer, great food. We were served by a lad who looked like a cross between the Maître D from Ferris Bueller and Charlie from League of Gentlemen. He told me the dirty tacos rated 9/10 on the spice scale. They didn't, but they were bloody lovely and the food was fantastic. I would highly recommend this place. Not least for the cush pissers.

We’ve eaten here a few times and ever time the food has been excellent. A good selection, and the kids choice has improved greatly over the past year (you know how picky a 4 year old can be).

I would have liked to rate good not average but trip advisor doesn't offer that rating! We returned here during our holiday as we had previously enjoyed meals here. I liked the improvement to the decor since our last visit. The booths have all gone and the stairs up to the restaurant are much more inviting with the wood effect flooring. I really enjoyed my Mai Tai cocktails but the white wines were not great. We understand that the Lone Star is connected to Rumours (previously Barberella's) and wondered why they don't have the same wine offering as it was much better there. We hadn't planned to have a starter but had the chicken wings which were very tasty indeed. I had chilli beef burritos and wedges which was superb. My husband had the ribeye steak which although cooked properly he wasn't overly impressed with. It was quite sinewy and didn't have the marble of fat running through which normally characterises a ribeye. He said it tasted of cooking rather than the meat flavour which was a bit of a shame. One thing that in the end we had to laugh about was how noisy both the waiting staff were with the dirty crockery. They disappeared with it behind swing doors and it was like they imagined we couldn't here them but each time there was a horrendous clattering so loud that you had to stop talking! To sum up, a mixed evening with all elements but I would return.

Had calamari starter, Dirty steak tacos main. Exceptionally well made food,creative seasoning, thoroughly enjoyable. Substantial portion size. Attentive and well timed waiting staff. Pleasant venue.

Decided to choose this restaurant ahead of others because of the range of choice for the teenagers that were with us: it even has pizza on the menu, which is a good extra alongside the other choices.

Always come here for family birthdays ect - or any other excuse! food is amazing, LOVE the giant homemade onion rings - tried a good selection of the menu, burgers are amazing, steaks perfectly cooked every time, fajitas are brilliant. can't fault the food at all, they've got something for everyone. staff always friendly and have time to have a laugh and a chat. can't rate this place enough!!

Nice surroundings but tables had seemingly been wiped with a dirty dishcloth leaving that “wet dog odour”. Service was nice, the waitress took it well when I asked her to bring us two more glasses that she had not carried with her fingers inside the rim. Starters were nice but were laid on a salad with a lot of dressing on it ( not referred to on menu). My husband despises salad dressing so would not eat any calamari or chicken wing that had touched dressing. The fish in the fish taco was heavily battered ( again batter not mentioned in the menu). My husband really enjoyed his burger though. The service was attentive and pleasant. If I went back I would be more prescriptive about how a dish was served.

We ate here one night and I wish it had been every night. The food is lovely, the staff are fabulous, its really busy with a great atmosphere. Be warned the portions are huge, I had a starter of ribs, then an enormous burger for a main and I was gutted to say I couldnt eat it all. I was with 3 mates and no one finished their main courses.

The food was lovely and I liked the fact you could decide on the strength of spice yourself. However, you do not need a starter as the portions are massive, saw lots of people leave with doggy bags. Personally I would have been happy with half the portion size for two thirds of the price. Would most definitely go again if we were in the area

Pre theatre dinner, we were assured we would maske the theatre and we did.

Either starve all day or get ready to take a box of food back with you to reheat the next day! The food is flavoursome and the portions are big! Great selection too.

Stumbled across this place trying to find the Buxton tap room. Service was good and the food was good quality to be fair. Would recommend popping in for lunch or a pre drink dinner

Great food , good quality meat . Double burger way too big ! 😋 my vegetarian friend only had limited options. But liked his meal .

Attended with my boyfriend and we ordered from the lunch menu. Great price (£12 for 2 courses, £15 for 3 courses).

Brilliant little place, ordered from the lunch offer menu which is very reasonably priced at £11.99 for two courses. Quick service and the quality of food was exceptional. The staff were knowledgeable about the food and ingredients and were able to confidently answer queries regarding my wifes dietary (celiac) requirements. We would eat here regularly if we didn't live so far away.

Nice venue. Seating a little tight. Added to the character though! Service was with care and prompt.

We went early evening and the lunch menu was still available so we had a two course lunch. We had buffalo wings and nachos as a starter, then a hamburger and spaghetti which was all lovely, so delicious but more than we could eat. All in all would definitely recommend Lone Star, music great!

Food is really good and affordable . Staff are really helpfull . First trip to Buxton and not my last

Had not visited Lone Star for at least 18 months, so we where really looking forward to our visit,

The next time I am super hungry, The Lone Star will be the top of my list as the portions are huge! A plus point for me (not liking to waste food), we were encouraged to ask for a doggie bag the next time we visit. Not that my doggies would stand a chance of having this super tasty food.

We went early evening with two children. Excellent choice of dishes on the menu, attentive, courteous staff, pleasant décor. Generous portions (the nachos were for one but we found adequate to share), good quality and one of the better burgers I have had. Would definitely return next time in Buxton.

Just visited this place is amazing staff lovely and friendly and food fantastic the portions sizes are huge had mixed shared starters and then fajitas which were also out of this world highly recommend

Had the nachos and mac & cheese to share, which were both pretty decent. Unfortunately the service was a bit off - they seemed to forget we'd arrived, and once served they forgot to bring our drinks. We had arrived lateish so their stamina was probably starting to run out! Friendly and apologetic once they'd realised.

We visited The Lone Star during our weekend stay in Buxton and were not disappointed. Upon arrival, our table received complimentary nachos that were super delicious. We then order some more (but shouldn’t have) as our main meals were so huge and we couldn’t eat it all! I opted for the Sweet Vegetable Tacos which I liked but would have preferred the mixture if it was in a sauce as the tacos became a little dry towards the end. Our service was excellent - every staff member was working tirelessly but always had a smile on their face. I would definitely recommend this restaurant if you love Mexican food - but you must book to avoid disappointment.

We ate here with our 2 children on a recent visit to Buxton.

We have visited in the past and we enjoyed ourselves so much that we had to come again! Visited on Wednesday afternoon, to our surprise the restaurant was busy but the staff provided fantastic service. The young man made us feel like we were welcomed and special! And then the food, huge portions and delicious. We will be back soon!

Went there as a party of ten for my sons 21st. The food was awesome. As soon as the food started coming out I knew we were in for a treat. A few of the party had ribs to start and the portion size had to be seen to be believed. Awesome. Everything that we ordered was delicious. The service was first class and with a smile. As a family we have eaten all over the world and this place ranks up there with anywhere we have eaten before. Thanks to the lone star for giving us such a good night. One tip, make sure you are hungry before you walk in!!

Decided to East at the lone Star as we fancied a steak. Great menu, great food and excellent customer service. On hand for every need and checking we were both happy with our meal. Good selection of meat and vegetarian options to eat. Good selection of cocktails to drink. Working visit again if in the area

Impressed with portion size - glad we were very hungry! Tasty food. Two excellent staff who were rushed off their feet but provided good service.

Very accommodating for large family of 19. Very nice hot food, although the adults pizza was the same size as the kids for a higher price!!

This is a great place with friendly staff and great food . Great for couples and great for families . Gets very busy with parties so can get quite noisy . Always good service . Prices not cheap but in line with most other food places and food size portions. Lunch menu is great and good value for money , my burger was delicious but my mums chicken was far to dry.

In certain things size isn't supposed to matter, big isn't always best, good things can come in small packages etc etc. Well, small isn't something the burritos and enchiladas in this excellent eatery know about and big certainly does have its charm - even if it means having to leave half of the main course barely touched (we live too far and two day's stay away to have them wrapped for later consumption).

We called here on our way back from Alton Towers, not really knowing Buxton that well, we looked for somewhere nice to eat, we stumbled upon The Lone Star A board and I'm so glad we did the food was fabulous, sadly sold out of the special - but this shows how good they are. The Mac & Cheese was something to behold, can't fault anything we ate. Pictures of some of our food. We will be coming back :)

My husband and I visited this restaurant last night and we enjoyed ourselves. The food was great, the staff friendly and attentive and we enjoyed the music!

We went to Lone Star for a date and found the food to be really good. My partner really likes the spaghetti western and being vegetarian, I tend to struggle so ended up with a pizza. Our starters were really nice and our mains were flavourful... the pizza was very small. The violet frozen slush is to die for and worth coming back again and again for. Recommend Lone Star for its attentive staff and lovely atmosphere, good deals and prices... but perhaps don’t order the pizza if you want something bigger.

Always come here when in the area, food amazing once again. Had the swordfish, was brilliant. Staff friendly and good value for money as the portions are huge. Asked if the swordfish was fresh or frozen.. apparently the chef goes to a fish market everyday and gets fresh fish!!! Thumbs up from me!!

This place is great. The staff are amazing too. My niece wanted something that wasn't on the children's menu (tacos) and they made her a special taco dish with lovely chicken inside. The flaming burger I had was outstanding and the chilli con carne got the thumbs up too. Food aside, the staff make this restaurant what it is, which is great. We were really well looked after and will definitely be returning when in the area.

It has been 18 months since I last visited, and was very surprised at how expensive it now was. £16 for a basic chicken fajita. The chicken burrito had very little chicken. The staff were lovely, but I am afraid there are more reasonable places to eat in Buxton.

These guys are amazing! We were here on a large group hen do. They took preorders but required no deposit which was nice and easy when there were 27 of us. Food was incredible, huge portions and unfortunately we couldn’t manage it all. If it was a stag party it may be a different matter! All the food was amazing and the service was impeccable. They even gave our bride some free shots on her way in and out of the restaurant. Five stars! Thank you!

Wow had an excellent meal here on my business trip. The steak was truly amazing and the starter cheesy garlic bread a meal in itself. Well done Lonestar

Beer and burgers, what more do you want, ok service, but a great range of local beers, loads of people come here, very convenient. Good music in background. I think if you want to sample good beer kept well this is the place to come, I know it is eatery, but I reckon the beer is the best thing here.
