The best restaurants in Clifton and Bradley Derbyshire Dales East Midlands

Not visited this pub for about 8 years, in which time it's changed hands. Went for lunch today and I wasn't disappointed. It was as welcoming as I remember it with a good menu choice including some very good value lunch options. Everyone in our party really enjoyed their meals, fresh, hot, tasty and beautifully presented. Service was excellent and we were made to feel very welcome. We will definitely return and I would highly recommend to others, couldn't fault it and I wish the relatively new owners the best of luck in their new venture.

A tucked away gem in Shirley. Cuisine extremely good. Friendliness of staff excellent. Service superb. Should I find myself nearby again, this is the pub and restaurant I would immediately seek out! Went there with local residents Steve and Lucy, but we were all treated like locals. A real home from home! Just go there!

After a few hiccups with different owners the Saracens has settled down under it's latest management.The food is excellent as is the service and atmosphere.A good variety on the menu so something to suit most tastes. Would recommend a visit.

A lovely chat with the landlord. I wish the place all the very best. It's worth thinking about reintroducing food, sir.

Very nice pub lovely pies great desert would highly recommend. Steak and stilton pie was amazing followed by cheese cake for pudding.

Very disappointing experience today at Sunday lunch. Met by a rude male member of staff (possibly the owner which is even more disappointing). We were Told you couldn’t book a table (we arrived to see two tables with reserved signs on). Went to order 3 x beef Sunday roast - was told we had to wait for the ‘reserved’ party to have their food before we could order (they’d only just arrived) as they needed to make sure there was enough beef for their pre-order. Little confused as surely that’s why establishments get large groups to pre-order - so they KNOW how much of each food item they need??!! All felt very chaotic and Fawlty Towers-esque - we walked out without ordering, choosing to go somewhere else that valued our custom.

Absolutely lovely. Would definitely order from here again if we were local! Even my fussy toddler enjoyed it.

Popped in with friends for coffee .large restaurant +shopping area good selection of cards .staff very helpful.

Quick service,Nice atmosphere.Good food.

We didn’t stay because the cafe is definitely not dog friendly, only the outdoor terrace which was too cold to eat there. Other garden centres have a friendly area inside for dogs, they should review there policies
