The best restaurants in Calver Derbyshire Dales East Midlands

A welcome stop for a coffee and other snacks midway through a walk. Good nearby picnic tables. Friendly service

Lovely coffee, excellent sausage roll, impressively bold interpretation of "single origin" 😆

We were staying at YHA Eyam which is a couple of miles away, and they delivered dinner for 25… a massive order. It was absolutely fantastic. Great selection of chicken, lamb and veggie dishes were all top notch. Great value too. Thanks to all at Curry Cottage.

The title says it all. Popular with hikers, climbers and dog walkers. We stayed just one night on our way home from Chatsworth. Will certainly stay again when we are next in the area.

We managed to find an indoor table for 2, by the counter, after an invigorating walk at Cuber Gap. It was quite full for lunch and some had even gone outside in the marquee. The homemade soup was good and the rustic baguettes were filling and tasty. Good service, thanks

Let’s be clear. This is the best chip shop that is not on the coast we go regularly and never any problems. Really enjoy it. Friendly staff. It’s busy, really popular. And can’t fault it usually. However if you go anywhere near closing time then they won’t warm up any pies so you get what you get. Is sort of understandable However they’ve changed pies, now have teeny thick dry pastry pies, with dry ‘filling’ fairly tasty, presumably some ‘premium’ brand that have got it all wrong. Now I’m sure the defence will be high quality meat etc locally reared but if the pastry is too thick and the sauce inside all but gone then it doesn’t really do the quality of the meat any favours. And I don’t care about cost. I didn’t even notice if the price had gone up. I just don’t want to drive home and then be disappointed when I open what is normally an excellent takeaway. I’ll come again but back to the fish for me

Well what can i say , been returning a few times through 2024 and there’s a reason for this , realistic prices on food and drink , friendly staff , good beer garden , food good quality and plentyful Simple review but this is what we like , couple from Sheffield

Such a warm welcome. The food and service for our family’s Sunday lunch was excellent our two year old granddaughter can’t wait to go back for ice cream

After a good 4 hours walking with our 3 dogs we stumbled upon The Grouse Inn So we decided to have dinner and drinks. We went in the front door to be met by a sign saying 'no dogs or children, use back door' Went to the back door to be met by a sign saying 'no dogs or children' So i asked the waiter where I could go, he said I couldn't take my dogs inside as they had a big table of people in 'the dog friendly bit' Luckily it wasn't raining so we sat out side. I ordered my drinks and asked about food. Was told I needed to hurry as the restaurant closes at 2pm, so we rushed our order to the barman. The bloke behind me was told he needed to hurry as the restaurant closes at 2:15 😱 Believe it or not, the bloke behind him was told to hurry as the restaurant closes at 2:30. 😂 Anyway, my fish and chips tasted like they'd been warned up most of the day, no matter how much tartar sauce, salt, vinegar and ketchup I put on, it was absolutely tasteless. There wasn't any check back to see if the food was ok. The only time the came back was to clear the table. 1st and last time eating at The Grouse Inn The only good thing about the place was the barman was too busy telling everyone to hurry up with their orders, he forgot to charge me for 2 pints of San Miguel. 😀😀👍🏻

We stopped by for cakes and coffee. The coffee was excellent, and the cakes were superb! It was hard to choose from the display. They were very different to the usual cafe options. Each looked very appealing, and far beyond the usual options. Whoever makes them has a fundamental understanding of the alchemy needed to make the perfect cake! The service was friendly and unrushed. Despite being near a busy junction the cafe was spacious and calm. Well Done!

A lovely pet-friendly pub, delicious food, great service and a beautiful fire going! Who could ask for more?

This was our first visit and certainly won’t be our last! We were greeted very warmly at the bar and then shown to our table. Two of us had a pie and another fish and chips and we all thoroughly enjoyed our meals. The pie was perfect! It was full of meat in a tasty pastry. Usually I find the vegetables in a restaurant to be so hit and miss but the carrots I think were the best I’ve had.. they were so deliciously roasted and the mash great too. We also had desserts which were equally brilliant too. The service was super friendly throughout. At times, after we’d had our mains, it was a little slow but there only appeared to be two members of staff who were serving in a busy bar as well as the restaurant. We didn’t mind this either as it gave us chance to chat and also not be too full for dessert! Thank you for a fab meal!

Really friendly and helpful staff - we were very late arriving (we did ring ahead) as we were unable to find the walking path descending off the Edge to get to the pub so had to double back. They were so helpful on the phone, trying to guide us. And they still had a table for us. Lunch was delicious - Roast beef lunch was excellent. Will definitely return here when next in the area.
