The best restaurants serving British food in Hope Valley High Peak East Midlands

Having tried most of the eating places in the village this is our go to place in Castleton for lunch, with the Derbyshire oatcakes being our particular favourites. The welcome is second to none. Claire and Liz are both so friendly and however busy they are they always stop for a chat. The place is spotlessly clean and the food is fab with a good choice of regular items and a very tempting display of savouries and cakes. Highly recommended by us.

We went on a Saturday and was disappointment as when we were going to order we were told we couldn't have coffee and cake as if was lunchtime and we had to order a full meal. We had been at this time of three previous occasions at the same time - booking by telephone and NOT been told that as it was lunchtime we had to have a full main meal. So was very disappointed as I only meet up with my sisters/family once a month (there was 8 of us) and this is the handiest to their homes so we got up and left. When taking telephone bookings for a lunchtime they need to advise customers of their choices!!! Subsequently we will not be going back!!!!

Wonderful atmosphere, friendly staff, delicious food, appropriate prices

Simply the best! Service spot on, staff delightful, food to die for! Warm and cosy, open fire, I thought I was dreaming! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Stopped off for breakfast early Sunday morning. Fabulous little family run place. Full of locals and absolutely adores any dog that walks in. Great food with nice beers and pies to take away. Farm shop is perfect for taking things home for the family

Called in for breakfast with my son and dog having booked the day before. Really accommodating and friendly staff with great food and coffee. I had scrambled eggs on toast and my son, a bacon sandwich, with a latte for me and a mocha for my son. £19.40 in total. We both agreed the food hit the spot. Will call again next time we’re in Hope.

I went to this shop with my partner as he wanted a breakfast roll. I had no idea what to have but with the help of the fantastic lady serving I had the bestciabatta sandwich I've ever had. The bread was perfect, packed with filling. Wr also bought a slice of ginger & toffee cake. The flavours were amazing. If you have the opportunity to use this deli on your travels, you won't be disappointed. Its a small deli filled with everything from chai seeds to sausage rolls.

Fabulous beautifully prepared lunch. Homemade mushroom soup, toasted sandwich with imaginative side salad and coleslaw! Wonderful coffee. Highly recommend

Came to Hope for the weekend and found this pub by chance. Greta food, service and atmosphere.

Absolutely fantastic stay at this pub. We ate here both days too the food was fantastic as far as to say probably the best roast I’ve had in years !. Great location for all our walks, parking available. The rooms were tastefully done , so much so we have booked again. The staff were very friendly and this makes a huge difference to the feel of the place.

We walked in expecting a good Vintage Inns lunch. We didn't get what we expected. Our pie was steak and kidney with poor quality meat inside. Expected Thyme roasted carrots which were missing and served plain mash potato not with Spring Onions. Friend had fish and chips which looked very poor quality. We will not be visiting another Vintage Inns if this is the current food quality.

Saddened to write a poor review after such high hopes, unfortunately our experience did not live up to the expectations. Extremely overpriced. Had to send back a cremated chicken breast and my partner’s food was left to go cold. No offer to heat anything up, several people around us had a s similar food quality issue. Very accommodating bar service, but unfortunately not enough to overcompensate for the stale, overcrowded atmosphere and pricy drinks (£10 for a glass of Prosecco). Would not return.

After a walk to Man Tor before catching the train to Sheffield, it's always good to have a pint in The Rambler Inn, open fire, friendly welcome and reasonably priced beer.

We were recommended this Pub/Restaurant by friends and were not disappointed. It was a Monday lunch so fairly quiet. We sat by a roaring log fire on a very cold day. Food and service were excellent. Gluten Free no problem.
