The best restaurants in Masson Derbyshire Dales East Midlands

We called in one morning as Mrs having a lie in. What a a warm friendly reception. They brought a water bowl for Ruby my chocolate Labrador and a treat. Breakfast was incredible and Rubys sausage was well received. Would recommend a visit

Possibly the best bookshop ever and I’ve been to lots! Quirky, eclectic, massive stock and excellent prices. A fab cafe and really nice staff - a must if you love good books and good food!

Excellent fish and chips, some of the best we’ve had (partner is from south coast and reckons it beat Brighton and Hastings chippies hand down). And only £8.50 each. Staff were so friendly too. Definitely recommend!

Hot chocolate wasn't very hot and lacked flavour. The latte was ok but wasn't very warm. The only thing I'd say is the cakes/scones are delicious, the food looked well presented. It really was it's saving grace, but for the price I'd expect a little more.

I was really hoping for the wholesome, home cooked food that the price tag promised. The bean casserole tasted like a tin of baked beans with a whole load of dried sage stirred in. The salad could have been bought in a bag at Asda. I won't be going back.

Now known as Habib's and under new management, Cromford's No. 2 chippy is working hard to win custom from the long-setablished rival across the road. The offering has broadened to include kebabs and panini/pizzas - though we've found that not everything on the menu is available all the time... Generous portions, well fried fish and chips, good standard of cleanliness, seating outside and inside. Slightly more expensive than the ultra-competitive chippies along the road in Matlock Bath but a good local chippy.

Delightful location, gardens are lovely and impressive views of surrounding countryside. Fresh craft beer, good quality food. New staff member Reuben served us and was friendly but professional. Decent portions and prices reasonable for the overall set up. Only slightly odd aspect is we were originally told that there was no availability. But this was perhaps an hour before the place filled up. In the end, after enjoying our drinks for half an hour, we were told that the chef could squeeze us in.

What a find! We have been to Matlock Bath a few times over the years, and whilst we’re not a million miles away, there was nothing really pulling us back there. We’d go for lunch as a family, or I’d ride my motorbike over for a coffee, but sometimes it’s a bit busy and hard to get seated comfortably and nowhere really that made you feel welcome. Outkast Company absolutely changed that. Not only was I made up as a biker to find a proper bike destination, but taking the kids somewhere that they are actually welcomed and treated as if they are present. The place was busy with every seat filled and there were people standing and enjoying a good chat too. The atmosphere was buzzing. Despite all that a couple of guys (customers) cleared a table for us and stood so we could sit down and eat, the owner welcomed the kids and introduced himself, as did a lady working there. The sense of community as a biker made me feel kind of proud that places like this still exist, but as a family man, I can’t remember the last time anywhere gave us a genuine welcome. The food is great value and those with a sweet tooth can forget going anywhere else. The coffee is insanely good too. If that’s not all, they even have their own beer which I took a bottle away and now I have to go back and get more! The food is hearty, fresh and delicious. For what you get, the prices are cheap compared to everywhere else in Matlock Bath. I genuinely can’t say there is another place that I can think of where all of this lives under one roof. There were a lot of small groups of bikers and a few couples that came and went. A massive mix of a crowd clearly enjoy coming here so the place obviously has a great reputation. It sounds a bit extreme but in this day and age it’s hard to find a genuine atmosphere rather than the usual places you go were everybody sits separately and doesn’t engage with anyone. You must pay a visit when in town, particularly if you ride. Avoid the usual struggle to park your bike to be rewarded with expensive fish and chips, come here instead.

The most incredible ice cream we have ever tried! The blackberry and apple and raspberry ripple….out of this world. Set in a working farm with a little play area.

Best tandoor mixed grill i've ever had

Really enjoyable Sunday lunch. Personal service. Dogs and walkers most welcome. Car park round back.

What a shame - using Uber Eats for delivery Could not access the service online. Problem with code Therefore unable to order from you this evening. I wont be using you again A possible £50 - you lost out on. Dont forget about all the other potential customers you have lost from hard to reach areas / unable to drive / not able to use the internet........ Very short sighted

This is probably the best chip shop in the Peak District.

This place DOES THE VERY BEST BREAKFAST COB in the whole Derbyshire Dales! Very good prices too! I was served by Liz today who is always friendly and makes a lovely breakfast cob. £3.60 for a hot sausage cob at the time of writing this! TOP MARKS

Don’t normally write reviews, but I feel like this needs one! 1st time trying and it was the best food I’ve ever tasted from a takeaway! Definitely going to be our regular.
