The best restaurants in Leek East Staffordshire Moorlands West Midlands

Excellent cheerful service from Lucy and Emily, and a delicious dinner. I'm not a spice monster, so the taste is the thing for me and this was, as ever, splendid.

Lovely environment and food was astonishing. By far best oatcake I’ve had, do recommend.

My nephews chosen venue to watch football when they visit.

The staff seem to be as reliable as a 1970's Rover, they let the manager down every night. The manager has more excuses than a Child whom hasn't done their homework. Nothing is his fault, we were charged for drinks we didn't receive and then criticised for not paying for them. The food was as bland as the beige that hearing aids are coloured in. The toilets have seen less soap than a tramps feet. If you order a prawn main, it is the same as the starter. just costs you more. And to top it all off the entire visit was about as socially distant as a train at rush hour.

Staff were extremely rude from the outset, and I tried to order at the bar multiple times only to be told they were helping other people. I wanted to take a picture of the bar, but they told me no photos. That’s fine, if it is an actual policy, which should be written. I mean, seriously, when are photos not allowed to be taken of a bar?? Honestly I think I rubbed someone the wrong way at the outset when I tried to order at the bar downstairs which I was told is not a bar. Or maybe they just don’t like Americans. Who knows… I left without getting a drink. Most likely they are so popular they just don’t care if one customer doesn’t get a beer and leaves. I won’t be back. Too bad since I had met another person at the Blue Mugge who worked there and said it was a good place. Oh well.

Superb food, friendly staff, a lovely relaxed setting for a really enjoyable evening

Very nice Food and very good custom

The food and atmosphere were both very good. And the servers were helpful and friendly. However the 3 behind the bar couldn’t be bothered to answer questions about the menu

We were staying overnight and the rate included a two course dinner and breakfast. Our meal was from the set menu with plenty of choice. Starter and mains. We went for the Philippino sausage and the pate. Both were good portions! It was good to have something out of the usual pub grub with the Philippino choices. Our mains were the curry and duck. The curry was pronounced fantastic! My duck was well presented and plentiful. My only minus was that I’d asked for it to be cooked ‘pink’ and it wasn’t. But it was very tasty. No room for desserts. I was shocked to read negative reviews on here as our experience was very good. Perhaps it’s just the carvery offering that needs work, because the evening meal was great. Breakfast was good. Again generous portions. The water in the coffee/tea maker wasn’t hot enough so the tea was undrinkable. The cooked items were very good.

Spotless tables, excellent service and food. Reasonably priced, it was a busy time but we had our food really quickly and Keira was amazing doing a fabulous job looking after the people eating in. Definitely be going back

We really enjoy visiting Den Engel after new owners took over a couple of years ago. There is a wider selection of drinks and the bar has had a wonderful make over which looks fantastic. We particularly enjoy sitting outside during warmer weather. Most of the staff and the manager are very welcoming. We did try to visit one evening after a meal in a local restaurant but were told under 18s are not allowed after 8pm. Fair enough, we didn't realise, but the member of staff was very abrupt when telling us (asking our 14 year old for ID when she could have just said she wasn't allowed in), but maybe she'd just had a bad shift?

Just wandering along, and came across this very nice, dog friendly place. sat down ordered our drinks, and the lady brought some little treats for the dog. a very nice touch. Tea was very nice and the fruit toast was lovely.

Not as good as our new Maccies but I've never had a bad time here. Order through the app to get the best discounts. my favourite is the mighty meaty but as long as there's some sides like chicken strippers you will have a tasty meal. Only downside is it's super expensive for what you get if you don't have the app or master bartering skills. But it's okay, Robert

Delicious food, Speedy delivery and fair price. I had the lamb tikka, chicken tikka masala and naan bread. All were well cooked and packed with flavour. Will be ordering again.

Decent food. Came here when staying over at the Premier inn Everything tasted great :)
