The best restaurants serving British food in Hathersage and Eyam Derbyshire Dales East Midlands

Popped in again for refreshments briefly whilst out cycling. Every time I go in I’m met with a smile from the friendly staff and owners. Love this place and its position in the village is great for people watching. Today I had an oat flat white and a piece of amazing tortilla. Thanks again.

We bought sandwiches from Cintra to take away for our walk. Just a cheese and tuna baguette and a cheese and cole slaw baguette - nothing fancy - but they were £8 each! Neither sandwich had any seasoning and were completely underwhelming. If you’re going to charge that much for a sandwich, make it memorable and delicious. We won’t be going back.

Came here for a spot of lunch and it was lovely! Lovely young lad serving ( not sure his name) but he was very accomadating and polite! Thank you!

£8.40 with tea or coffee. Nice breakfast and bustling atmosphere, full of walkers 🙂 Good value for money. Left stuffed! Thank you 😊

Lovely cafe. Lovely place to watch the birds. Lovely food. Simply lovely. Would recommend to everyone.

Absolutely delicious. Huge portions (maybe too huge) but all 4 of us were delighted with our food. Surroundings are nice too. Thoroughly recommend

Lovely place. People pleasant enough. Ordered some food. Should have taken 20 mins tops. Over an hour later still not had food. It was just a steak sandwich, which it said came with onion chutney. Crispy piece of steak with a few fried onions. Cold chips and onion rings that were sitting in oil. A couple that came in about 45 mins after us received there food first, and that was 2 curry dishes. Was told the steak took longer than the curry????

We have just returned from a 2 day night stay, and unfortunately we were quite disappointed, and we wouldn't recommend. Firstly when we booked, we specifically rang and asked if we could have the 1 four poster room. Were advised that was fine. We arrived to check in, the pub was chaos. Very, very busy, with no real attention. We were allocated our room, and told "sorry we can't give you the four poster room, because we have given it to someone else!!". Instead allocated Room 4, which essentially is the spare room above the garage! Really disappointed by this. We had an evening meal at the hotel on the Sunday. Service was poor, no wine list and cost was £107. We paid for this on the night. Breakfast very hit and miss.. 1st day was good, 2nd day numerous items missing. No juices, fruit or anything. On check out, we were told there was a bill of £107!! I have to prove through a receipt this was paid! Fortunately I had it. In summary this is a 5 bedroom pub with rooms. It's dated, lacks attention and rooms really differ. I don't believe we were treated very fairly, to be promised one thing, given another, nearly charged twice and poor service. We expected more but left really disappointed.

Full makes to Diane & the team, front and back of house for our lunch today! I’m dairy & egg intolerant so eating out even in 2024 can be tricky to say the least. My hubby mistakenly ordered me the wrong dish from the menu, but Diane without any hesitation corrected this in record time superbly, super impressed with the chefs for being so understanding & there is even vegan mayo (no egg!) hurrah 😀 Lovely atmosphere, great staff & good food, you must eat here !

Well, where should I begin? Upon arriving at the car park, I was greeted with stunning views, which made a great first impression. However, upon entering the hotel, I noticed that the restaurant was extremely busy, and it appeared that there were limited staff members available. Our initial interaction with the staff was not particularly welcoming, as we were told to wait outside for 20 minutes before being checked in due to the high volume of guests. Personally, I believe that this is not an ideal way to greet guests upon their arrival at a hotel. Despite waiting patiently for the specified time, unfortunately, no one came to assist us. As a result, I waited an additional 15 minutes at the reception before finally being able to check in. After a lengthy wait of 35 minutes for the check-in process, we were shown to our room. It appeared that the room was in urgent need of renovation and investment. The decor was extremely outdated and basic. One point to note is that the main road nearby, which seems to be mistaken for a racetrack by many drivers, experiences constant traffic even in the early hours of the morning. The noise level is comparable to sleeping next to a racetrack or a motorway. Evening meal. We had a reservation for a table at 6 pm, but the staff informed us that 7:30 pm would be more suitable for them. We understood that they might have had a lot of reservations for the evening. However, when we went downstairs at 6 pm, the restaurant was empty, and it remained so even at 7 pm. For breakfast, the options are limited to English breakfast, vegetarian options, or cereals. Similarly, the hot drink choices are limited to tea or coffee. The quality of the breakfast was satisfactory, but it could be improved. Additionally, there was only one staff member handling all aspects of the breakfast service, including taking orders, cooking, working the bar, bringing out food, and managing the reception for booking out. While this individual did an admirable job, it is evident that they require assistance, as the workload is excessive for a single person, let alone two. Conclusion. If you are seeking a one-night stay at a basic accommodation, the Millstone Inn may suffice. However, I must admit that it is a marginal choice, and I would not recommend an extended stay. The hotel rooms are in urgent need of not only a thorough deep cleaning but also significant investment to bring them up to an acceptable standard. While the staff is friendly and hardworking, they would benefit from additional training to enhance their efficiency and effectiveness, especially during periods of staffing shortages. Regrettably, I cannot recommend the Millstone Inn for future stays. Despite its charming location, the overall condition of the hotel requires significant improvement.
