The best restaurants serving British food in Amber Valley East Midlands

Can't comment on food as not tried it, but the drinks and entertainment are good

The best fish and chips in the Derbyshire area.... I travel from Derby just to buy my fish and chips here... The fish is always superb. Well cooked and beautiful batter.... See you again soon.

Sunday lunch poor , small portions , of meet , chicken was I bit of breast and a chick leg . had to ask for extra veg for a group of 10 only bought one bowl out needed extra gravy only bough 2 gravy boats for a table of 10 . Mash was an extra instead of standard ! Price of spuds could make this as standard not an extra feel a bit cheated .

Cafe really run down! Staff rude! Coffee awful and so much noise from the staff clearing away! Tables dirty! It was not a nice relaxing experience! We will not be returning!

I am not a regular but I have attended regularly enough to view some other reviews - especially about staff - with skeptasism. I have always found the staff perfectly polite, friendly and outgoing. They always accommodate my requests and when I have had special moments - if never occasions - staff have been very accommodating and, more than that, seemed happy to be a part of a happy moment. Food and drink prices comparative to quality leaves me agog because they could be charging so much more - and yet they do not. They are part of the local community and seemingly have the community in mind with their pricing. They also seek to keep it local with their purchasing too. I've yet to purchase from the external artists, etc., that (presumably) rent space in the gift shop but its always a great little space to peruse and I am sure it will come up good for many gift seekers. As a veggie it's a shame I cant put more detail into my review but I do love their platters. I regularly buy a platter to take away when I need a quick foodie present (made on site, no less). When I want to treat or cleanse myself a fruit platter is equally excellent value, visually appealing and tasteful. The hot chocolates look 'something else'. It breaks my heart that people would visit a certain chain coffee shop over the Brown Bear. Let's support independents better, because they are, well, better!

It's a fantastic pub 4 a lovely drink and food 🙃🙃😍😍😍😍😍😎😎😎😎😘😘

Good atmosphere. Manager is very interactive with customers. Staff are supportive of my friends with disabilities and also patient with them.

Where to start! I didn't see one member of staff smile and it was so slow. There were 9 of us wanting tea, coffee and scones. There were only a couple of members of staff so we had to queue very slowly to order and pay, then queue very slowly to get our drinks. The tables still had used cups etc to clear away and we all thought the prices were high for what we got. I paid almost £4 for a standard latte! In the garden centre itself the prices again were very high. The ladies toilets were disgusting! Out of 3 toilets one had no paper, and the large bin for putting the paper hand towels in was so full it was overflowing. This was at 11.30 am so I would say the toilets hadn't been check at all that morning they were a disgrace! I bought a birthday card and they didn't even put it in a bag even though it wasn't wrapped in cellaphane. We won't be going there again

Came in with my son and next-door neighbour I had the steak pie and she had chips and fried bread we have both been really sick straight after leaving the restaurant will not be coming again

Mi familia y yo tuvimos una oferta groupon aquí. Al llegar todo parecía bien, nos presentó los menús sólo para descubrir que no eran ofreciendo lo que había en la oferta groupon. El primer plato llega, que parecía fantástico darnos muchas esperanzas para el resto de nuestra comida. El campo principal tomó 40 minutos si no más en llegar, por que hacía frío. El papa puré parecía smash, y todos nuestros platos principales se veía como la comida que te dan en un 3,99 todo lo que pueda comer restaurante. El cerdo pedimos, que no estaba en el menú, pero el groupon ofrecen, era insípido. no devolverlo, ya que no queríamos esperar otra hora para nuestra comida. Cuando pedir bebidas principales ups, la camarera se le olvidó nosotros así que esperamos otra media hora. Una comida de 2 platos tardaron 2 horas, lo que es una vergüenza. sólo había 4 mesa por lo tanto no había excusa. Entiendo que tenían un comedor separado; así que ellos no quieren clientes groupon cerca pagadores personas completos. No vayas aquí. No malgastes tu dinero. La comida nos dejó 2 de nosotros enferma. Estos chefs necesita formación adecuada, por lo que el personal.

Service is terrible. 1 staff member on. Have to wait ages for food to be cooked, ready and to be served at the counter. I hadn't touched this chippy in years since the big change. But started getting the mini fish and chips for £4 as it was a good price. Today they sold me a moldy cob. I had mini fish and chips from there a week ago. Chips very dry. Won't be going back

Great, well cooked breakfast that arrived promptly. Good service as usual. It was busy as usual but lots of seating and all in an amazing garden centre. Well recommended.
