The best restaurants serving British food in Derbyshire Dales East Midlands

Very cosy and welcoming lounge, comfortable inside seating with some outside seating to the front next to the road and in the alley. I went for a coffee and piece of cake, the lounge is an ongoing project at the moment (toilet refurbishment).

Absolutely love this little gem of a place!

Brilliant meals and service will definitely use again

I enjoyed my visit but others in my party had mixed reviews

Really banging mini fish and chips for £7.50 before the footy. Thoroughly recommend.

Very disappointing. We’ve visited here many times over past 10 years. Booked for two nights as we know how good it is and how booked up it gets. Really surprised to walk in to see mostly empty tables, one member of staff on shift trying to do everything and pub generally unclean. Tables not cleared, no welcome despite our booking - just told to sit wherever. There was an issue at another table which didn’t appear to be handled well, all seemed very tense and unprofessional. Quality of food has declined and portions small to average. Such a shame, needless to say we’ve cancelled our second booking and will head to the wheatsheaf where it’s a quality experience all around

We were staying in Monyash and came here for a meal on our final night - as well as popping in for a drink on the preceding two nights. Totally excellent in every respect; very prompt, polite, friendly service, delicious food and very generous portions at, what I thought, was a very fair price. Everyone left very full and very happy.

This was our first visit and certainly won’t be our last! We were greeted very warmly at the bar and then shown to our table. Two of us had a pie and another fish and chips and we all thoroughly enjoyed our meals. The pie was perfect! It was full of meat in a tasty pastry. Usually I find the vegetables in a restaurant to be so hit and miss but the carrots I think were the best I’ve had.. they were so deliciously roasted and the mash great too. We also had desserts which were equally brilliant too. The service was super friendly throughout. At times, after we’d had our mains, it was a little slow but there only appeared to be two members of staff who were serving in a busy bar as well as the restaurant. We didn’t mind this either as it gave us chance to chat and also not be too full for dessert! Thank you for a fab meal!

Always a real pleasure to be back in Winster and partake of the hospitality of Old Bowling Green. Charming, relaxing and traditional with welcoming staff and very dog friendly. We enjoyed tasty basket meals (served Friday/Saturday), drinks and chit-chat. A lovely pub in a lovely village.

Lovely place for a drink. Great service with friendly staff. Would highly recommend for drinks. Didn't try the food.

We had enjoyed meals here previously but the quality has plummeted. Two of us ordered the fishcakes which were deep fried with no evidence that they contained any fish at all. Cheap, overcooked fishcakes and undercooked, limp frozen skinny chips. One of the worst meals I have ever been served. We were also seated in the 'function room' which was cold & scruffy.

Lovely friendly staff. Ate here twice while staying in the village. Food excellent. Cosy atmosphere with warming open fire . Staff made us feel very special on our wedding anniversary. Would highly recommend.

Gorgeous food and a great choice on the kids' menu! Everything tasted really fresh and great quality ingredients. The staff were really friendly and very helpful. We even left my sons water bottle behind, and they are keeping it to one side for when we return! 😆🙈

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

Beautiful location very peaceful staff are super friendly. Outdoor pool with no bleach or chemicals in there pure natural minerals Instead
