Definitely need to book on a Sunday. Portions are large and all freshly prepared and cooked so there is a wait. Got busy really quickly. Staff polite and helpful and didn't stop moving all of the two hours we were there. Doggy treat station and staff asked after the wellbeing of our dog. We will be going back to enjoy again.

We had booked a table but when we arrived they said that they were only serving us food because we had booked a table and there was a very limited menu for us to choose from. With some difficulty we ordered, but it took a long time for the food to come although it was reasonable in the end

I called in at the Remarkable Hare at 9.25pm, they advertise opening hours are 11.00 am until 11.00pm, as I approached the bar I was told “ I’m sorry we have stopped serving” this being 1hour and 35 minutes before closing, there was no sign stating the pub was closed. When I asked to speak to a manager I was told it wasn’t worth paying 6 members of staff to stay on just to serve me. there were others in the bar and last orders had not been called, Surely if a bar advertises they are open until 11.00pm they should still be serving at 9.25pm

Pretty average My order was messed up and they have me the wrong food, which was a bit of a bonus as the food they bought out was cold! I ordered the dancing pig fries which weren’t great to be honest. The pork belly was dry and had clearly been in a frier. The chips were soggy, the fried noodles were missing. Couldn’t finish the food as it wasn’t very nice. I wouldn’t go back or recommend which was a shame as it had a nice atmosphere.

Restaurant manager refused to allow a 16 yr old to consume alcohol with her meal despite this being perfectly legal provided she was accompanied by an adult and did not attempt to buy it herself. When one of the party poured a small amount of cider into her glass the manager threatened to throw them all out if they did it again

Disappointing Experience at The Remarkable Hare We recently dined at The Remarkable Hare, and unfortunately, it was not a great experience. We were seated in a corner with each of us facing a grease-stained wall, which was not exactly a welcoming atmosphere. By the time we left, we smelled of smoky grease, adding to the overall unpleasantness. We ordered tapas, and at least half of it seemed to be deep-fried frozen food, while the other half consisted of overcooked, scabby bits of meat, all served with a measly amount of shop-bought sauce dobbed on top. For the price (£7.50 per plate), we expected much better quality. The service was also disappointingly slow, making an already poor meal even more frustrating. Overall, the meal was overpriced and underwhelming. I doubt we will return, but the management should really act on these issues.

We went kayaking at Carsington Water and googled where to find a hearty pub lunch afterwards. This place did not disappoint! The pizzas are massive and delicious, I asked what gravy the cheesy chips came with and it's usually meat but they provided a jug of the meat and a second jug of gorgeous veggie gravy so me and my hubby could both enjoy dunking the chips! Super friendly staff, funky decor and dog friendly. Matlock is such a cool town too with all the quirky shops, we will deffo be back.

The atmosphere and drinks are nice but I could not believe the price of the food. We got tapas and I was charged £7.50 for THREE pieces of tenderstem broccoli. Maybe having two different price points for the tapas is a good idea? Charging £7.50 for a bowl of olives is simply inexcusable, but I understand £7.50 for the chorizo. Other people's food looked a decent portion, however, so maybe it's just the tapas that overpriced.

Avoid at all costs, unless you want to get intoxicated and wait to grow white hairs. Very slow service and not functional. The cook was spinning round like he didn't know what he was doing, I didn't understand the role of the young waiter, pretending to be busy walking around for no reason at all. There is in essence only one person taking orders and she was very tired. Completely forgot about our order, blamed it on the ticketing service or maybe they didnt pay the subscription on the ticketing system and the trial run out on our order only, but not the orders after us. Served a table of 7 that arrived after us, before we got our food. Food was undercooked, dough still raw. We used to be regulars here, but it seems they don't want our money anymore. At least we only got charged only for the gammon tonight. Overall, disgraceful service. Last time we came round they didn't want to serve us because we arrived 10 min before the kitchen would close. This time they made us wait 1h20 min and serve everyone else but us. I can understand having a bad day/evening but it's becoming more of a regular thing here. Not gonna come back and I don't recommend it, unless they change the cook, and reorganise the staff. Very bad management that leads to so much waste.

The place is clean and welcoming. The service is friendly, and the food is fantastic. I got the pork belly burger, which unfortunately I didn't find on the menu but it comes with a good portion of skin on fries, so I ordered some sides. The onion rings were crispy. The burger was amazing, the patty juicy and the pork belly crispy, with fresh baby gem lettuce and a slice of tomato, I would add a thin slice of onion in it as I love it. The blue cheese sauce that came with it was very good, I didn't miss any other condiments with it. Great place! Thank you!

Managed to get a last minute booking for 11 people, the staff were great fitting us in. Car park just around the corner which was handy. The food was gorgeous! As a group we had fish and chips, pizza, lamb and chicken gyros, half a chicken and fries and a dish called the dancing pig. Very generous portions that defeated most, but again the food was all cooked fresh and was very tasty. I would definitely recommend a visit. All in all a lovely place.

We booked here for Sat eve while staying overnight in Matlock. I loved my food, half roast chicken coleslaw chips. My husband however had salmon salad which was a salmon fillet on a bed of lettuce and that was pretty much the salad, he was not impressed. We were given water on arrival which smelt of bleach I asked them to take it away because of this, which they did, but no apology no replacement was offered ! Took 45 minutes for the food to arrive, would have been nice to perhaps give some bread maybe to tie us over ! Staff were very inattentive and I wouldn't choose to go back plenty of other places to choose !

Had the share platter today and what a meal that was. All different meats cooked to a really good standard. The veg was spot on. Gravy was another level with its own unique flavour. The belly pork was my favourite as it was juicy and crispy at the same time 👌 in my 31 years this is by far the best Sunday dinner I’ve had that’s for sure. Plenty of food also.

Avoid the pizza unless you like very thick doughy base. We ordered pizzas here based on good reviews, the pizza we had was about an inch thick and very heavy. We complained, and they said the pizza thickness depends on the chef, this week they are thick. We asked to return it and they only gave us half the cost as refund despite us trying one slice. We were left with a bad taste. 👅

Visited this place on the night England were playing in a euros match. They advertise that they are open until 23:00 hours yet when we arrived we were told by an unpleasant lady that they were closed since 19:30 hours. I guess the staff were watching the match. There were people in there with doggie bags I wonder did they have to abandon their meal and told to leave . This place is unreliable ,staff are rude and not abiding by their own opening and closing times. ZERO STARS for this place. THIS IS NOT A FAKE REVIEW as you have stated in your reply. That reply is probably made by the person who decided to close the restaurant early.I am not lying WE WERE turned away and it was before the match started

We arrived and asked for a table for 7, we were told that because we hadn’t booked we couldn’t be seated so I asked if we could eat in the bar area and if we could possible have some menus, the waitress asked how many menus I needed so I asked for 7 again, she seemed like she just didn’t want to be there. I ordered at the bar and the member of staff had no patience what so ever and made me feel like a hinderance. He looked very obnoxious and had little customer service skills. We were rushed into ordering due to only him behind the bar. Everyone in the establishment spoke down their noses at us. We had 7 meals and drinks but felt like we were a bother. £130 down and a terrible experience.

I had high hopes when booking here but it didn't live up to expectations. The Sunday dinner platter looked impressive when it came but in reality it was all show. Nothing was cooked particularly well. The chicken was burnt to the point it just crumbled off the leg dry. Little veg and all a bit stodgy. To be honest we would have overlooked the food if it hadn't been the fact that the staff didn't seem phased at all by a child playing/banging on a piano that's been converted into a table in the middle of the restaurant. When we left I mentioned this to the staff behind the bar who said 'I know it's really annoying'. It's a shame that didn't have it in them to prevent everyone else's meal being ruined!

I came with my parents for lunch, we weren't after anything fancy and we are local so thought we would try here. I asked for 3 ham toasties and was told they were short staffed and weren't doing hot food. I had just seen a sandwich and bowl of chips come out so I changed my order to three ham sandwiches, (nice and easy). I could see a box of "made up cobs" in clingfilm, which the staff member ferreted through and handed over the counter to me. When I said I really wanted a sandwich, she said " so you want me to make a sandwich up for you", she then said she could make me a NUTELLA sandwich!. Basil Fawlty did spring to mind at this point and we soon left and went to forest nurseries cafe down the road which was a much better experience. I did later explain to my dad that nutella was very different to ham! On a positive note the cafe is in a good location.

We hadn't planned to visit but are so glad we did. Not only does Melissa, your very hospitable host, keep an excellent range of real ales in tip top condition, but she also provides a delicious choice of food (but check their webpage for times/ days that food is available). We had one of the warm baguettes, crunchy and packed with tasty filling, and a beef "boing a boing". Great value and very enjoyable. Well worth a small detour if you are near Matlock.
