The Plough Inn in Derbyshire Dales - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

I'm not sure if they serve food but a proper village pub

I visited to attend a funeral buffet ,this is as traditional as a pub can get . 2 rooms still in the original design . A good beer on tap ,Timothy Taylor landlord , I was led to believe it was the venue for local motor cycle groups including Panther owners. Built in 1745 ,the pub has ladies toilets within but the gents is a unit placed outside in the rear car park. A good village pub.

Called in for a pint whilst walking Two Dale's and Ladygrove 5miler, just had 1 and sat outside in the sunshine

Good village local pub. Ale was well kept. Spot on. Service friendly. Is still back in here if i was in the area. Doesn't serve food!

There's never food on when I go there which is probably just my bad luck but I was starving and it was lunchtime. They have Thornbridge beers which are my favourite and a great place to sit in front and behind.

Fantastic pub in a beautiful location. The staff and locals were friendly and the ales were great to!

Great place friendly staff good choice of beers

Was hoping for some refreshments but it was closed on a Friday lunchtime. It appears the pub is closed every lunchtime except Saturday. Shame.

Quaint English pub located in the picturesque village of Two Dales. Various beers are available on tap.

Good selection of beers and very pleasant staff,

A lovely proper village pub. Friendly.

Nice very freindly pub, full of proper down to earth locals, I really enjoyed the two visits, yes I went back

Another great 2nd Saturday afternoon of the month at the Plough. The Panther Owners Club section meeting. We even had several Panthers today. Very friendly staff look after an unruly bunch of bikers with beer or coffee for those riding. Always a great day, thanks go to all concerned. Lesser makes of bike accepted.

A lovely venue and excellent food,

Person behind the bar had to call a server who was busy sat in the customer area continually checking her nails. Nice beer and price but think the staff this Sunday need some front of house training. Nice pub

The best beer in a glorious location, you could want for nothing more

Wonderful 18th century pub. Popped in for a drink or 3!! So friendly the staff and locals, felt welcoming and a great variety of drinks, ales, gins, whatever you fancy.

Friendly village pub, with warm atmosphere in charming 2 dales

Beautiful and spacious olde worlde village pub, range of beers kept perfectly. Definitely returning. Enjoy. M

We had a private party at The Plough on a very busy weekend .. The food was excellent, the staff were all friendly and very attentive. Martin was brilliant from my first enquiry all the way through until the last guest left on the night of the party. Definitely a place I will be visiting again, and will 100% recommend for food, service and drinks. Thank you guys it was a great night.

All the negative reviews before 2021 do not reflect the new owners of The Plough Inn. They have done a very good job running a successful business. They try to cater for all tastes with local ales and popular euro lagers. (Madri) It has a very friendly atmosphere of locals and tourists. I visit Darley Dale from Northamptonshire every other week and always pay the pub a visit. When ever I have guests at my holiday let I always send them to The Plough Inn. Came here Christmas day and New Years eve and it was very busy. A cosy electric fire in the best room if it's cold and wet outside to get warm next to. Dogs are welcome inside. It is a snug pub so you might be sitting close to other boozers. There is a beer garden which showed the Euro 2020 on a giant TV. With seats at the front if you smoke and the sun is shining. Not yet been here when there is a quiz night. Heard it's good fun. Pizzas on the menu but never tasted one. You can pay cash or card. A few stairs to the cubicle toilets. Large car park. If you stay in Darley Dale for the Peak District this is a very good pub to visit. If people give negative reviews then they are being a little precious. It's not the Ritz nor is it a dive.

This is a proper village pub. Friendly, decent choice of beers. Busy on the Friday night I visited, so great atmosphere.

Great little country local. Good atmosphere and good drinks

What a wonderful establishment 🤩 Beers are fabulous, food looks fantastic, and always a great crowd 😊 If you haven't tried it yet, you are missing out! 🤩

Great pizzas and a good choice of real ales.

Absolutely brilliant pub. Good range of ales, friendly staff and a great, simple menu. Dog friendly, show sports on a big screen, good beer garden and live music for a sing a long.

Little darling of a pub. Recently renovated beautifully. Great company, drink and food. ❤️🍲🍺🍻

What a little gem! It's been redecorated and looks stunning. It's so friendly and an absolute gem in our little village. X

Vistied 'plough Inn' solely on the fact it was the closest establishment that served food to our current destination. We arrived with a warm welcome. The Bargirl was pleasant and joyful. The owner was a friendly gentleman who's seems keen to maintain high standards. The food was very good. Especially at the price. If you want good hearty locally sourced food and ales, do not hesitate to visit in your in the Derby area. Shame we're over 100 miles away.

Very enjoyable evening. Good food, nice environment.

Lovely pint of landlord and bar food in a friendly local pub in darley dale. Will definately be visiting again!!

Small compact pub. Good beer and food.

Lovely place but service wasn't ready for our group of 12 people on top of the groups that were already there. But they did a great job despite the numbers.

Thank you for hosting our wedding party at the plough. You couldn’t have helped us out more when planning the event. The best end was the perfect setting for our informal, autumnal wedding celebration. From organising the event, to the day itself, the staff at The Plough Inn couldn’t have done more to make sure the day ran smoothly. Our welcome beers were sourced from a local brewery, Prosecco was served on arrival along with a beautifully presented graze table for our guests to enjoy as they made their way in. Throughout the afternoon fresh pizzas were served for our guests to grab a slice when they wanted to, with a vegan option to accommodate all our guests. The bar staff were brilliant, attentive and just great fun- they couldn’t have done more! Thank you for a day to remember! P.S the espresso martinis were amazing!

For a small out of the way pub they do there best. Friendly, cheap and good variety of ales. Chatsworth Gold very tasty.

Went to Pie night. Food arrived potatoes and Gravy were cold. Service rubbish, we chose the pie and drink deal, had to keep asking for our drinks. Chose pudding, menu isn't correct, baked cheesecake comes with topping. Hadn't any cream. It wasn't busy, only 2 staff they didn't seem to know how to serve! Won't return. We went on Thursday 16th September. We have been in May last year, and enjoyed Prizza.

A gorgeous little gem of a pub, up-to-date but still retaining a traditional feel, great atmosphere and fabulous staff who can’t do enough for you. Great food and a brilliant selection of beer. Dog friendly and surrounded by lovely countryside walks. Perfect beer garden round the back and cosy indoors too. One of our new favourite places to go.

Great pub! Sad that we only discovered this on the last day of our holiday else we'd have been regulars!

Lovely food and beer, pizzas and desserts were fab. Very friendly, worth coming off the beaten track for!

Amazing staff ,nothing is to much for them,food simply amazing ,beers awesome ,thank you

Arrived at The Plough at 8.50 and was told they had just called last orders. The 4 of us managed to get a drink and then as other people arrived and asked for drinks we managed to get a second round. At half 9 they were turning people away, had all the stools stacked on the tables and had turned the outside lights off. Just before 10 they fetched all the umbrellas in and asked us to drink up and go at bang on 10. Just found the atmosphere unfriendly and like they were only bothered about shutting and getting rid of the customer. They turned away two groups of customers and a third came only to leave when they saw the stools on the tables.

How family and dog came this weekend. For the first time of many. Your public house was by far the relaxed place to be with outstanding entertainment. In troubled times you made it work. But can't control the weather. Pat on the back. Dean and fam

What a welcoming little pub in Two Dales! The guys running this place went over and above to ensure a great experience. Would recommend!

Superb, well run pub. Great selection of beers and brilliant atmosphere.

Nice, friendly comfortable pub. Good service. Recommended.

A true hidden gem of a pub, friendly staff who really put themselves out to make you feel welcome along with great food and beer. What more could you ask for?

Run by knowledgeable, experienced friendly people. This is a fantastic pub. Sympathetically restored, with a large beer garden. Beer range is superb and well kept and presented. Food is simple but very nice. Various events forthcoming, including Oktoberfest!

So glad we stopped off here. Truly wonderful hosts and great beer and pizza. We will definitely come again.

Enjoyed our visit, had the Yorkshire pudding roll 😊 friendly homely pub

Lovely beer 🍺 highly recommended

Friendly staff, brilliant service and an enjoyable time.

Lovely fires,good selection of well kept ales. Friendly staff...

Outside covered area for eating. Very Nice pizza

Owners are great and has a great vibe and good service, glad I only live a few hundred yards away

A well overdue pint and it was absolutely perfect !! Fantastic quality pizza and a very decent size! Friendly, helpful staff, great beer garden. Well done, will be back!

Well done guys, a great opening effort

Great pub, lovely staff, made you feel welcome and safe, will recommend to friends

Decent quality food for a takeout a little small for my liking but taste was excellent

Always a warm welcome at the Panther (motorbike) section meeting held at the Plough on the 2nd Saturday of the month. Good selection of real ales as well as hot drinks.

Poor pub no food and opening times very poor advertising opening times and don't keep to them and only look after the local people and not people visiting the area

Bustling local with great beer.

Great place to chew the fat with the locals

Great location and friendly atmosphere. Good beer.

We stopped at this pub randomly for some food, we found the food to be delicious, there was a faint damp smell inside, friendly welcome, we did have quite a wait for the food after we ordered and there was hardly anyone else there 🤔

Great traditional pub. Friendly locals and staff. Perfect for a few afternoon beers

Such a cool pub! Nice people + nice and friendly staff. Recommended 100%👍

Great Pub with friendly staff and lovely people from the village. We stayed in a cottage right next to The Plough and had a really good time there. Thanks for having us! 👌🏻🍻

Friendly staff, but difficult to find, parking is limited and its a touch expensive.

Very nice pub locals very friendly, lovely staff.

Could be a great pub if the owners spent some money on a refurb.

Went on Christmas eve. The place was packed. Could have been better staffed for this event. Just 2 bar staff who looked exhausted.

A good dog friendly sociable pub

Home of darts best throw in league

Very good dog frendly good bar staf

Excellent, quaint village pub. Locals are very friendly. Shame they don't do basic bar meals.

Small venue that could do with a little cheering up BUT the staff & locals are lovely and bring the party! Massive field out back (not sure it's party of the pub)

Really nice village pub, well kept beers too

Out of the way location which is very popular on Friday nights and Sunday afternoon. The pub has a cosy indoor area and a larger outdoor seating area. Good place for an afternoon ale or two.

A proper rural pub. It has beer, crisps, dartboard etc.

We rented a cottage 50 metre’s from The Plough, we spent two enjoyable evenings, the locals were very friendly and informative about the surrounding area. Carrie and the rest of the staff were fantastic hosts - recommend for a social pint with good company.

Called in at the Panther Club Rally at the Plough on a Saturday lunchtime ............. the pub was shut. Lovely sunny day and we were all gagging for a pint. We sat for an hour and eventually it opened at 2pm. Not very impressed

Cosy little bar with a friendly vibe from the staff. But the young uns there seemed to like to cause trouble.

This pub has changed hands not long ago. The beer is great and the chip butties are very good. However it's ready for a refurbishment. This used to be a great pub so let's hope the new owners get it back to its former glory.

Very old traditional English pub .. large beer garden at the rear.. would be good if they served food

El Plough solía ser un popular refugio de mina bajo la dirección de Tim y Helen. Desde mi última visita el pub ha cambiado de manos y ha sido comprado por la empresa hoteles, este es representante en la caída en el precio de la cerveza!Parece que el pub está experimentando algunas reformas y el interior ha sido decorado.Actualmente no existe una comida que ofrecen, pero este es planeado en el futuro. La Ale, por otro lado, estaba muy bien cuidado, con Timothy Taylors encargado y Abbeydale Moonshine (otro favorito) que era demasiado exquisito!En la parte trasera del pub es un gran jardín y muchos bancos. También está el local de formación de equipos guerra disputa el equipo y una cancha de bochas.Había un cantante local conocido planeada con el domingo por la tarde y nos fuimos al pub como ya estaba llenando.La Barredora finalmente tiene la oportunidad de volver a su antigua gloria. Uno para llamar a si estás en la zona
