The best restaurants serving British food in Carsington Water Derbyshire Dales East Midlands

Booked a table looked at the menu online and already made a choice of a mixed grill . On arrival, I asked for the mixed grill to be told the menu had just been changed. So after looking at the menu, I asked for a beef and suet pudding only to be told that they had run out it was only 18.00 hrs so ordered a Burger which was ok nothing special. My wife had the pan fried cod and again was ok ( came with no vegetables) it was just ok but we did get a bowl of water for our dog.

Absolute gem of a pub, 5th visit in the last 30 years but nothing changes ,new landlord but still one of our favourite pubs.Keep doing the same things, cos it works!! See you in 3/4 years time !

Great little pub with a good selection of beers and spirits. Food is lovely and made on the premises. The people who run the pud are such lovely and friendly people. Would recommend if visiting the area.

Enjoyed a fabulous afternoon tea in the Mainsail Restaurant after a stroll around Carsington Water. Great value and fabulous sandwiches, cakes and proper scones with a generous helping of clotted cream.

Popped in for lunch today, realized we had been a few years ago. Food, drink & service was excellent!! Highly recommend if you are in the area. Been in the area for past week, & we certainly had saved the best til last. Big thanks
