The best restaurants in Derbyshire Dales East Midlands

Food was plentiful but not especially memorable, I enjoyed my lamb pie. A little overpriced for the quality on offer. Service was very friendly and the food came quickly.

Popped in here whilst on a walk in the surrounding area for a much needed cold drink. We sat outside at a table alongside many others that were having what looked like some good food. Can't vouch for the taste as we didn't have any. Friendly staff and a good selection of food and drink available. Inside space was available but with the weather people were sitting out. It's clearly a popular venue.

A bit pricey but the bacon sandwich was incredible and the coffee was very tasty.

Best tandoor mixed grill i've ever had

After visiting Thailand it’s been difficult to find similar flavors, but The Basement is the closest we’ve found to it. Great Thai flavor! We had the Tom kha, pad Thai, green curry, and spring rolls. All were fantastic

An absolutely lovely pub and hotel. The staff were so nice and the food was absolutely delicious and dog friendly!

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

Went for lunch on Easter Sunday, 6 of us. 4 adults & 2 children & the dog. Amazing service, the food was amazing. Would definitely recommend & 100% will visit again when in the area.

Lovely place to have a quiet coffee and good breakfast

Proper local pub, very quant. This is a proper village pub, staff were very friendly. Good local ales and friendly patrons. Only had drinks so can't comment about food.

This review has replaced my last 4 star review which was deducted a star due to the cold temperature inside the pub, no heating on in the middle of winter and had to leave our coats on while eating but the food was ok, on further reflection it should have been 3 stars. Visited 29/04/25 around 5pm, lovely day so we sat outside, not too busy and the staff were very friendly and efficient, we ordered 2 open steak sandwiches with gorgonzola sauce with fries and a mini fish, chips and peas, food came out relatively quickly but unfortunately the steak was very fatty and chewy and quite pink (we didn't specify how well done we wanted the steak so that was not the issue)it was barely edible due to being so tough, my dad's dog enjoyed it though. The fries were ok, fish chips and peas were average but acceptable for the price. Would visit again for drinks only as it is in a lovely spot to sit outside when the sun is out.

Real chips and fish is made to order, be prepared to wait as it does get very busy.

wonderful food and service, we were even asked if the AC was good for us, everything came fast and was cooked perfectly, thank you Pari for your hospitality!

Took away a great Indian meal. Everything was on point and very delicious. Good portions too. Great to find a local restaurant like this in a place like Bakewell.

Popped in on our way home from the Peak District. Really helpful and friendly staff. Absolutely went above and beyond what one could expect of them. And a great selection of Ales too. Thanks.
