The Red Lion in Derbyshire Dales

A superb Sunday lunch here today. Generous and served piping hot with extra vegetables. Good value wine by the glass and their own brewery ales on tap. Walkers and dogs very welcome in the bar and very cheerful staff too. Birchover is a charming village and The Red Lion is somewhere we return to and highly recommend.

We really enjoyed the delicious sea bass with linguine and pork loin with red cabbage and potatoes. A side dish of seasonal greens was a perfect extra. Many thanks for an excellent meal.

It is hard to find sufficient superlatives for this pub. Amazing food, excellent service, lovely surroundings and beer (brewed on the premises) that is second to none.

If your looking for Tapas then phone and check beforehand? No tapas on our visit today. No idea if they have stopped serving it or not ? Saying that the food we had was reasonably priced and tasty and service good. Just not want we was expecting from the pub reviews.

A tapas feast, 18 courses all freshly made on the premises by Matt Frau the owner and chef with his eldest son Dante. 18 guest at a long table, delicious dish after delicious dish we managed to eat a good proportion of the food, I managed a healthy portion of 17, had eaten far to much by the time the last dish, lemon chicken and rice was served but some how still managed the creme catalan which was smoothe creamy and delicious with a crunch caramalised cover. I have eaten in many fine restaurants around the world and this meal was up there with the very best.

As we were on one of our regular stays in Birchover, we invited members of the family to pop over for Sunday Lunch - there were 9 of us in total and I have to say the food was exceptional. Everybody thoroughly enjoyed themselves. The owners and staff are very friendly which is why we love the place. If you don't fancy a Sunday Roast there's plenty of stuff to choose from on the menu and specials board 🙂

Lovely meal I had the duck. Excellent my husband had the fish pie loads of fish in it really nice staff can't fault the place.

Matt ran a bread baking workshop, it was amazing, I’ve been baking for about 45 years but still learned loads. We made sourdough and pizza dough that we loaded with toppings and cooked the the wood fired pizza oven.

Great place for real ales , they have their own brewery. Didn,t eat there but food looked good. Welcoming bar staff and good atmosphere a very enjoyable vist.

We enjoyed a lovely Sunday lunch at the cosy Red Lion after walking in the beautiful Peak District. We had a mixture of satisfying, well balanced dishes off their main menu and carvery. We found there was an impressive selection of vegan/ veggie options compared to other places, and really good quality meats cooked well. Lovely staff, friendly and relaxing atmosphere I especially liked the way they had space for dogs too. A great end to our day.

The service was very slow upon arrival, we waited a while to get a drink and menus, with no acknowledgment from staff. We ordered the Sunday calvery expecting to help ourselves (Like you would generally expect to do at a calvery), however, we were served the food from the staff direct from the calvery. Which i have never experienced before. We felt that this was a despirate attempt to save money, by means of portion control! Myself and my husband left feeling hungry still and what was even more shocking was that even though my husband did not want to eat a lot of the vegetables on offer, they didnt give any extra portions of other foods on the calvety which he actually liked! As a result after our meal we both felt very unsatisfied. It was very small portions and they seemed to be scared of giving you what is considered an 'average adult' amount. However, despite the carefully placed small portions the food was very tasty! I just wish the staff were a little more observant, welcoming and we could have actually have helped ourselves to the food on offer as we always have done at other calveries.

Excellent communication from Alyson and a great meeting place for all our family members who were visiting 9ladies We booked tables for 20 of us and organised meal requests via a menu emailed to me from Alyson. The welcome was warm and friendly and the selection of drinks were very good. The veggie meal was good and the selection of meats was good; piping hot food for all including chicken goujons for the children so all in all a great venue to enjoy each others company

An old pub full of character, came here for the food as renting a holiday home 5 miles away, seemed like a different offering @ the red lion than the usual pub food on offer elsewhere. Wasn't disappointed on looking at the menu either, although it did seem a little small and brave. Thinking maybe a few not so restauranty dishes might go down better with the locals, but hey if I'm only visiting. It seemed strange that the designated restaurant area didn't have laid up tables and a wine list (considering the aspirations of the menu.) Just cutlery in a holder on the table with ketchup and mayonnaise in bottles, seemed a little off kilter with the menus. Starters of peach burrata and octopus carpaccio were good but not great . Mains of sea trout with ravioli and pork were not so great,fine in parts, but at the price they are charging , needed to be better, although the chef can cook and has talent it just needs to be more focused and a more cohesive idea of the restaurant as a whole.

We went to the Red Lion in Birchover while visiting a friend who lives in the area. We thought we would give the Red Lion a try. I’m glad we did! We will definitely be back. The food was excellent. The chef is from Scilly & he certainly knows about food. There was a main menu and specials board. The specials were more interesting than the sort of thing usually on offer. We started with bread (home made) with a hot blue cheese dip. We were mopping every last tiny bit out of the pot it came in. They make their own blue cheese. Then 2 of us had beef taglata. Tender & delicious. The chips that came with it were light and fluffy. We all cleared our plates. The pub itself is very ‘olde worlde’, not a modern pub but we were all quite comfortable. It was a very pleasant way to spend an evening. The wine was good too without being an extortionate price. If I had to choose between the 2 pubs in Birchover then I would definitely choose the Red Lion.

We had a lovely evening meal, the food was good and the couple who own the pub were delightful, they obviously have a passion for food and it shows on the plate

The perfect muddy boots and dogs countryside pub. Friendly staff, great ales and tasty food. What more could you ask for

Fantastic roast dinner and even better deserts! Great location in the Peak District and lovely locally sourced produce used. Amazing beer brewed on site too. Matteo and the team made us and our 2.5 year old really welcome and we had a memorable time. Definitely recommend.

A real hidden Gem as the food was very special ,a interesting and unique balance of flavours, put together with lots of thought and attention. So many fresh flavours, including home made bread, cheese and sausage made on site. Definitely far from your average pub grub and well worth the visit. Chef and front of house manager were attentive welcoming and we had a really nice experience, in a lovely part of Derbyshire. Definitely going to return as the menu is seasonal and changes will be much looked forward to .

Been here a few times now, the Chef is extremely knowledgeable and this is evident in all the food. We particularly like the all the fish dishes, but all the food is at a different level above and beyond all other pubs. The chef also creates his own crafted beers and home made bread which are excellent. Could not recommend the red lion enough.

Stopped for lunch out on a walk today at The Red Lion in Birchover. Their own brewed ale is fantastic! Good menu including plenty of vegetarian options. My husband had spinach ravioli which was better than we’ve ever had in Italy! Fresh and delicious. I had a tasty humous & roasted pepper ciabatta which came with a generous side of homemade chips and a healthy mixed salad. Really recommended!

Really great meal shared with lovely friends in the best pub in Derbyshire. You have to know it’s here to find it. & what a find. Started with …… Bircher cheese dip & homemade sourdough bread ( Fabulous ) Cheese & bread made by the chef. Pan-Fried calves liver, cooked to perfection. Try the Nine Ladies beer, again brewed by the chef. Thank you Matt & Ally

Having booked, and after a good walk with our guide dog puppy, we enjoyed an excellent carvery Sunday lunch at the Red Lion. Truly dog-friendly with up to 8 dogs in the bar, the atmosphere was calm and relaxed. Attentive service and good food - the salted beef went down very well. Great.

My son and I recently spent two week in the glorious Peak District and were fortunate enough to stay in Birchover. There are two public houses in the village but the Red Lion is by far the superior of the two. It is a lovely example of a village pub and exudes character. You will receive a very warm welcome from Matteo and Alyson and the staff whether you are a tourist or a local. Matteo brews his own beer on the premises and it is of an excellent quality, I would recommend the Robin Hood’s Stride a fresh clean 5% IPA with plenty of body and a robust hop flavour. The other brews on offer are equally as well made and there is the normal range of other beverages you would expect to find in a well run pub. The food is outstanding and reasonably priced, I just loved the Steak and Ale pie it was fantastic. We spent some of our most memorable times of the holiday in the pub talking and cracking jokes with the locals and staff and we both felt perfectly at home. I would like to thank everybody at the pub for making us feel so welcome. If you are in the Peak District and you get a chance get over to the Red Lion, great pub, great beer and great people.Barry and Sam

Proper pub, welcoming and friendly service, with a good selection of its own brewed beers. Small menu but very good food and decent sized portions. We ate here twice during our stay and all four of us enjoyed it.

Great atmosphere, service was excellent, very friendly and attentive. Could’ve done with a bit more choice on the menu, but what they lacked in quantity they made for up in quality. Nice original dishes, presented beautifully. Could have utilised a bit of veg though. Good value for money

All very good. The location is fantastic and the food and service were top notch too. The pub is full of character and seemed very friendly.

We ate on a busy Friday night. Service was very friendly and choice of food varied. Pub offers its own brewed range of beers (can recommend Cork Stone). All courses are reasonably priced, and we tried a variety of them - all were good quality - starters of duck, tomato and feta salad and mackerel; mains of lamb shank, gnocchi, burger and fish and chips. Would definitely recommend this pub.

We went for lunch on Saturday to the Red Lion and had a brilliant time.We were two families (four adults and four children) and the beer, food and service were all excellent. The beer is brewed on site and was great, the food was large portions and absolutely delicious (our resident northern pie snob raved about the steak and kidney pie), and the staff were all very friendly and couldn't do enough to accommodate us.We had never been there before but would absolutely recommend the pub- we will go back the next time we are in the area.

I booked a table at the Red Lion as besides serving meals they also brew beer on the premises which I knew my husband would enjoy.Well from start to finish we enjoyed every second, every morsel of food and every single drop of beer. The food isn’t the usual pub grub but freshly cooked and flavoursome with an exciting twist. We enjoyed three courses and my husband sampled their beers and his favourite was 9 Ladies, it’s a pity we live two hours away as I think the Red Lion would be a firm favourite and local for us. The staff were excellent too and in particular Tom who looked after us very well. Thankyou for a memorable last night for us in the Peak District.

We were a family of sisters on a weekend break in the peaks. We had an amazing time at this gorgeous pub. The chips are to die for and the staff are professional, friendly and very helpful. We loved our visit on the Saturday so much, we went back on the Sunday for lunch. Thank you to the staff for looking after us.

We ended up stumbling across this lovely pub after a long walk. We had a drink to have a little break which was served by lovely staff and then realising that we would need to either walk home or get a taxi. The staff kindly provided us with Taxi numbers but there were none available so we turned to have to get the bus. We decided to have a bite to eat whilst waiting for a bus to arrive and we all ordered what ended up being the best chip butty we have ever had. Whilst serving us the lovely grub we realised that because we were unprepared we didn't have masks to get on the bus. So once again the staff came to our rescue and gave us a mask so we could get on the bus home. All in all, one of the friendliest pubs I have been to in a long time. Nice food, cold drinks and a great outdoor seating area which had the sun beaming down. Thanks for helping us out

The food was amazing and the lovely staff were really friendly and kind. We're going back tomorrow for a family Sunday lunch!

Just enjoyed a really delicious lunch. The steak and ale pie and the sticky toffee pudding both lived up to expectation! Very convivial and friendly staff

One of the more interesting menus we came across when on holiday. Staff were very friendly and there was plenty of space so we felt quite comfortable re Covid. The menu was not large but it was good food.

Highly recommend the Red Lion at Birchover. I rarely write reviews but was compelled to share our experience today. We stumbled upon this cosy pub around 6pm after a walk and found it warm and welcoming. Fire blazing, very covid safe, attentive staff, we planned on just having a pint but were tempted by the menu despite having already eaten and did not regret our choice to order a dessert each. That was the best sticky toffee pudding I have ever tasted (and I’ve tasted a good few!) It was so light and so good that I wished I had more room for more. My boyfriend enjoyed a delicious biscoff cheesecake. I could have happily eaten both all over again. We will be returning to sample the homemade main courses, as the food on neighbouring tables was getting high praise and looked as good quality as the desserts we enjoyed. Compliments to the chef. Reasonable prices for such good food. I can’t wait to book a return visit.

Excellent beer brewed onsite, excellent pub food, Great location in a beautiful stone village near excellent climbing, bouldering & walking, nearby stone circle.

I am vegan so I rang up before to check they had an option for me, right from the booking to the meal the staff were incredibly accommodating and friendly. They offered me a range of dishes that they would kindly make vegan for me. I had a lovely vegetable tart with vegan cheese and it was delicious. Lovely pub, great food, great staff.

Booked easily for lunch and sat in the Tap Room as we had dogs with us. Service was great- really friendly owners. Food was lovely too!

We are a group of friends with small children who camp nearby at Barn Farm every year. The last three years, we have foregone cooking on the last evening and had a meal at the Red Lion Inn. The experience never disappoints and we all always look forward to our meal to round out the trip. The staff are so friendly and patient dealing with all the picky orders from the small children. The food is delicious and well-prepared and presented. The range of drinks, including local ales, quenches any thirst. The weather was wet and windy but the inside was cozy and warm, and well socially distanced. We look forward to coming back again next year!

Pub is closed but a takeaway service offered. Fish and chips and pie and chips to die for!Simply fabulous box of food. Home made skin on chips are amazing.Top restaurant food delivered piping hot by the pub themselves.Super value and quality.I will be back for more!

We had a fabulous Sunday lunch here yesterday as part of a circular walk, so pleased we decided to stop at this gem of a pub. The owners were super friendly as were their team, couldn't do enough for us. The food was excellent (3 Roast Pork carveries & Gnocchi & Wild Boar Ragu) with really goof Gluten Free options, great menu choices and the beer brewed on site was superb. We will be back - thanks for such a warm welcome

Sunday lunch for 10, 7 carvery, 2 kids carvery and one kids pizza plus deserts. Wonderful, very tender meat, I had pork and beef, wife had Turkey, house beer hoppy and dry just how I liked it. Excellent service, food served at the right pace, friendly staff and everyone happy. What else do you need? Wonderful experience will come again, thanks.

What you`d expect in a country pub well done Team :-) certainly will be back here best choice of pubs in the village

The whole family really enjoyed their meal here with us, the food was tasty, the Birchover blue dippers are addictive, the fish and chips were perfectly done as was the steak. The beer, which is brewed on the premises is extremely good indeed. The staff are very friendly and helpful and the whole evening was a great experience and I can thoroughly recommend a visit.

Thoroughly enjoyed our family meal. Food was all delicious, imaginative and interesting. Staff were friendly and attentive. We will be returning.

The Red Lion is a fantastic pub located in the village of Birchover, a perfect stop off if you go for one of the many beautiful walks around the area and dog friendly too. We stopped in after a walk around the nine ladies and stayed for a few pints of Matteo’s home brewed beer - there are several available plus a range of well known other although not needed. We had a lovely roast dinner which was great value for money and so needed after our long walk. Matteo also makes his own cheese and we brought away a chunk to try at home - it was amazing so rich and creamy. This pub is a little gem in the heart of the Peak District serving beautiful cared for cooked meals, I would recommend to anyone.

Great Quiz AMAZING RIBS AND CHIPS (thanks Matt) If you want a good meal, go here. The staff are great, the place is super clean and the chips are EPIC

Just had a lovely Sunday lunch for six people and two dogs. The food was great and the local brewery beer even better. Highly recommend.

My wife is wheelchair bound and the staff went above and beyond to accommodate use with a ramp for access as well as setting a table for easy access. Food was fantastic and their ale which is brewed on site went down very well..Will be back in the near future

My husband and I had Sunday roast at this lovely pub after climbing Robinhood stride and Rowter rocks & before continuing onto Stanton Moor, Cork stone & the nine ladies circle.

Went here with my girlfriend and parents. My girlfriend and I had the burgers without any salad in them (which they accommodated very well), my dad had the steak, and my mum had the veggie burger. The burgers were good, two meaty tasting patties in a brioche bun with bacon and cheese. The steak was also very tasty, and they did a good job of accommodating my dad's FODMAP food requirements. They did give my mum the wrong meal originally, but fixed it very quickly and gave us free chips. They were to die for! There was also a good range of local beers. The staff were very friendly and willing to answer my dad's questions about the ingredients of each meal.

Found this gem of a pub by chance!

Just spent a weekend camping in birchover and had the absolute privilege of visiting this wonderful pub. We were a large party, adults and children of varying ages which some time can be problematic when your trying to feed everyone, not here, the landlord and staff couldn’t have been more accommodating, we were all made welcome, food was fantastic and a good selection of beers for both the Dads and the mums, great pub and will definitely return

Called in here for lunch and a sandwich. Excellent real ales and a super roll filled with warm meat from their Sunday carvery. Very friendly welcome too.

I have only ever been here for drinks and this was my 2nd visit here! They have their own brewery on site and would recommend the beers. They have a good selection of ales and certainly worth a visit if staying nearby or after a nice walk.

Called for lunch mid walk on a Sunday. Very friendly we chose a soup and a starter. A craft beer and a shandy.. All nicely served and made welcome. Ideal for walkers and dogs.

The staff were very friendly and the food was excellent value for money - a small but good selection of meals - especially enjoyed the ribs!

Wonderful place. We opted for the single meat carvery and a pint of Kingstone beer, brewed on the premises. Home made cheese samples on the counter. Wonderful atmosphere and friendly staff. Thoroughly recommend.

A fantastic quirky village pub, decor has a pagan twist to it, unusual and it works well here.. A very warm and friendly welcome from the staff, who go the extra mile to make your visit a memorable one! nothing was too much trouble , the food isn’t the usual pub grub, (thankfully) .. it actually has flair and imagination! tastes good too! Portion size are on the large size so great value , excellent all round, highly recommend to all whom prefer that little bit extra. All the beers are awesome, if you don’t try them it’ll be your loss! If your a cheese lover it’s treat time as they make it themselves! It’s sold to customers behind the bar ,along with their beer they brew.

This is a very friendly village pub with good food and ale. We visited it 3 times in 3 days! Having eaten here twice the food was excellent quality, good value and great service. There is a great selection of ales brewed on the premises, especially the ‘Nine Ladies’.

Popped in today with my 2 Yr old and 8 Yr old children after a morning at Chatsworth.

I’ve just eaten the best veggie burger I’ve had in years! Well done to the chef for putting some flair and thought into it - absolutely delicious.

I can't comment on the food, other than what was being send out looked decent but I only came here for a pint (or two) with a group of tired cyclists after spending the day cycling. Their own brewed Birchover Ale selection are all quality drinks, and they even gave us free chocolate eggs at the end of the service (it was Easter Sunday) which is a lovley touch. Hopefully we will be back again next year for the same trip during which we will certainly be back for a quality pint.

Real country pub. Good beer, pub grub that’s a cut above the usual, friendly staff. Vegan option on specials board. A place to relax.

The Red Lion is a stones throw away from a Cottage we stay in when visiting Birchover.

Having walked 5 miles we were after some food and drink. The Druid Inn said no muddy boots so we came to the Red Lion. Very nice and friendly staff, muddy boots OK in the bar area, and the food and home brewed beer were great. Thoroughly recommend this place.

Went up with family for one of their special nights this time was sardinian food lots of choice and able to try things that i wouldn't normally have also had his own homemade cheese. Great atmosphere lovely landlord and landlady and they have own brewed beers on tap.

Great home made food, home made beer and cheeses to die for. Warm log burning stoves and an even warmer welcome.....

Husband & i went there with our dog one evening. We Just had a couple of drinks. The lady was friendly. They had pick 'n' mix doggy packets for £1.50 which our dog loved while we were there!

What a wonderful place this is , carvery roast lunch fantastic,best roast beef ever & staff very welcoming & helpful , holidaying in the village so will vist again

Great food and atmosphere. Service was friendly and welcoming. Really enjoyed the own brewed lager. Thank you

My husband and I went there last night for dinner. Great food with a clear italian touch from the chef/owner Matteo. Really nice and friendly staff, great home made beer selection. We highly recommend the blue cheese and pear bruschetta and the apple crumble!

Went to Red Lion this weekend. Two of our party had the carvery and stated that it was the best carvery meat they had ever had. Not a wide choice of vegetables but all fresh and good tasting. My wife remarked that it tasted home made. I had the Birchover Blue Cheese (award-winning and made by the owner) ciabatta and it was exquisite. Local beers are brewed on the premises.

We popped in for a meal as we were on holiday in the area - a big family with a dog. The tap room is dog friendly so we were able to eat here. Great service - extremely friendly and welcoming! The menu was varied to cater for different dietary needs and the children. Portions were generous! The food was really good and we all enjoyed our meals. We would certainly visit again if in the area - definitely worth a visit. Interesting to see the old well here too.

Parked on the main street early morning and went for a good arduous walk (for us at least), around the rocks and hills of Birchover 9full of local history), down passed the lovely Old Vicarage and over to Robin Hoods Stride, Dale End, Elton, Winster and return to Birchover, and decided to take a look at the Red Lion as I had heard it had a good reputation for dining and the fine ales made on-site. There were people outside and many inside drinking and dining. The service was very good and the staff very welcoming and helpful. Dogs we noticed are welcome too! The food was absolutely beautiful and thinking about it now - I wished we'd have had more, instead of thinking about our weight, considering we'd just done a hard walk for us. the home made Ministrone Soup was wonderful my wife said, (and still keeps on about it), and I have to say, my Ciabatta (containing black pudding, two eggs and bacon), with home made chips and salad was truly wonderful too. Well worth a visit and enjoy the beautiful surroundings also!!

Nice pub and great food. The fish and chips was superb! Dogs allowed in the pub area. Thank you very much!

Eight of us including 4 children (ages 3 to 7) dropped in for an evening meal on a Sunday night. We were staying at the campsite up the road and couldn't be bothered to spark up the BBQ. Friendly welcome, good food, good beer!

Good honest pub. Traditional feel. Great landlord. Hearty, honest food and good ales brewed on site. Not fancy or Michelin stars but just down to earth. Well worth a visit.

We had a delightful couple of evenings at the pub. We had one evening playing darts and having a couple of drinks. On the second night we had a meal, incl. a 7 month old and a coeliac. We were all very well catered for. We have never seen a pub do gluten free burgers with gluten free onion rings and chips. Superb! Thank you for your hospitality on our week away to Birchover!

Fantastic food, lovely fresh local produce. Friendly staff. I am Coeliac and the Chef prepared a fabulous meal. Including onion rings in a GF batter, made my holiday. Would highly recommend.

Stopped here after walking the moors. Lovely location and interesting own beer selection. Food was pretty good - was too warm for carvery but roast salmon was good. Service a little slow but staff very friendly.

Lovely pub with a great selection of drinks. The strawberry and rhubarb is a must on a hot day! If you like your ale there is a good selection of brewed on site ales. Very friendly staff.

Visited here for Sunday dinner, it was a very good meal. Beef was so tender and falling apart and the pork was so tasty great selection of vegetables. Also had 1/2 vegetarian options and the lady let us order and wait for that dish to be servers etc before we went up so everything worked well. Home brewed ales are in offer and very tasty!

We visited the Red Lion on the bank holiday Monday afternoon, just for a drink. We decided that we would return that evening for a meal, especially as the other pub in the village appeared not to be open.

We are lucky enough to be staying in the village this weekend, however we didn’t fancy cooking so decided to try our “local”, what a great decision that was.
