The best restaurants in Codnor and Waingroves Amber Valley East Midlands

Been many times before lockdown and so so glad to see it open again. It’s the best place for a home cooked breakfast, it’s pristine, service is fantastic. They also do homemade cakes, tried the cornflake tart just lovely. I can’t fault it 👌

The best Chinese food in Derbyshire.

You will receive the warmest welcome from Debbie and Yan. Super friendly, lovely events, dog friendly, beautiful garden. A must visit!

AWFUL. SERVICE ... CARVERY NOT VERY WARM. OTHER FOOD BURNT... SLOW MOSTLY UNAVAILABLE STAFF... PAYMENT OF MEALS WAS A MESS, NO RECEIPTS GIVEN. LACK OF ANY FORM OF CUSTOMER SERVICE FROM THE STAFF. IF YOU FIND ANYONE. A REVIEW BY ANOTHER GUEST WAS ENTERED HERE, BUT APPEARS TO HAVE DISAPPEARED

The setting is nice, on the golf course, but if you can't drive, you have to walk at least 20 minutes

Just before u go in to it I will say the pizza are epic. However don't Excuse the fact of their service. We order on phone they told us when to come up. Came upto collect food will only be 5 min 15min pass by. Do u know when it done? "5 mins" again, wait 1 hour multiple other got food before me and another customer who wait even long than I. Overall, got food wrong order, my honest opinion they are good folk but the place as gone down hill for time keeping

First time visiting after going to the hospital near by, both had the fish and chips, huge portions of fish nicely cooked and very good value. Staff friendly and interior of pub very nicely done. Definitely worth a visit

Absolutely beautiful but extremely filling, brought a sharebox(dad box) for 2 and well couldn’t eat it all !!! unless you have a big appetite then get the share box!! The sauce is unreal and just a work of art

We had a takeaway, wish we hadn't bothered. The food was cold when it arrived, the onion bajies tasted awful, like they had been fried in old oil and they were tough. The nan was doughy and cold. The passanda sauce was like glupe it was extremely salty, cold and oily not creamy with cashews. Extremely disappointed and won't be ordering again.

I am not a regular but I have attended regularly enough to view some other reviews - especially about staff - with skeptasism. I have always found the staff perfectly polite, friendly and outgoing. They always accommodate my requests and when I have had special moments - if never occasions - staff have been very accommodating and, more than that, seemed happy to be a part of a happy moment. Food and drink prices comparative to quality leaves me agog because they could be charging so much more - and yet they do not. They are part of the local community and seemingly have the community in mind with their pricing. They also seek to keep it local with their purchasing too. I've yet to purchase from the external artists, etc., that (presumably) rent space in the gift shop but its always a great little space to peruse and I am sure it will come up good for many gift seekers. As a veggie it's a shame I cant put more detail into my review but I do love their platters. I regularly buy a platter to take away when I need a quick foodie present (made on site, no less). When I want to treat or cleanse myself a fruit platter is equally excellent value, visually appealing and tasteful. The hot chocolates look 'something else'. It breaks my heart that people would visit a certain chain coffee shop over the Brown Bear. Let's support independents better, because they are, well, better!

Glad to say the Poet and Castle is back on the map, Been twice now for Sunday lunch and both times it was very good.

This was their third and final chance, and they blew it. I used to be a regular customer at this establishment, but drifted away over time. On the previous two occasions I had food from here (both at tea time) I woke up the next day with incredibly loose poo. Since these instances occurred over a year ago at this point, I decided to give them one more chance. I took a can of Pepsi from the fridge, approached the man on the counter and very clearly asked for a Codnor Fish Special to go with the can. The bloke on the till entered this (I know because it came up on the till itself), but when I handed him the cash, he gave me the tenner back and walked away with no explanation. From other reviews, it's clear this type of rude, shoddy service is not uncommon. Avoid this hole like the plauge, especially as their are two, far superior chippies within walking distance of the place.
