The best restaurants serving Default food in Buxton Central High Peak East Midlands

Tasty breakfast we came here twice after being disappointed with the offerings from the on-site café at the campsite we stayed on. well cooked food and good menu choices. Good value. only slight criticism was quite a long wait for our food but may have been down to fewer staff on one day. will return.

I am a regular here and love the food, the ambience, the warm welcome. go for Breakfast or lunch, you won't be disappointed. also delicious cakes and excellent coffee.

Apart from serving ale until 1am on a Monday evening/Tuesday morning & having a great range of beers, wines, spirits & soft drinks, it has a fantastic juke box. You don't find too many nowadays & some are skewed towards more modern music (rap with a silent c, for example 😉) but this is a great juke box. You can still play the more modern stuff, but my buddy & I played a mix of rock, punk rock & folk punk that at least 3 of the other drinkers loved! Great place, even better with a wise choice on the jukebox 😁👍

Lovely Country Pub. Great food and service. We visited on a Monday night and were pleasantly surprised at how busy the bar was. We had booked a table.

Lovely place, attentive staff. Great food. Spotted it on a day visit so decided to go in and really glad we did! Would visit again!

Authentic Spanish tapas. Lovely atmosphere. The staff are friendly and very efficient. Fantastic food. Highly recommend

Let’s start with positives - lady working behind the bar was very friendly and talked us through all available drink. Place is bizarre, cluttered and just doesn’t make sense. With each minute that we spent in the beer garden me and my partner noticed more and more ridiculous things. Beer garden is interesting combination of storage area, £1 shop and a skip - you won’t find two identical tables or chairs, we sat next to cardboard cage and a big bin, above - bird hut, behind me and a metal cow which didn’t make sense either. Kitchen doors were constantly open which is fair with extreme temperatures but we have seen a staff member coming out and grabbing vegetables from garden storage box which was placed in customer areas, box wasn’t closed, secured and it wasn’t a refrigeration unit, anyone could access it at any point. And in 30 degree temperature weather those vegetables were not healthy! During 45 minutes visit not a single table was cleaned and nobody checked on customers dining and drinking outside. Overall I recommend this place if you like weird things!

Thoroughly enjoy every trip we have to red willow! It’s one of our regular spots and it’s always super friendly and welcoming, often have live music on, quizzes etc that are advertised on their social media. The selection of drinks is extensive and there is something for everyone! The staff are always super friendly and accommodating and it’s always kept lovely and clean. Can’t fault it at all, will keep going back 😊🩷

We dined on Friday and we have been before which was lovely but unfortunately our experience of the place now is disappointing. A man came over to take our order and leaned on our table to do it extremely rude .. we noticed that he did everything and the lovely Lorena who was being shouted at was not allowed to do anything at all this man was very controlling and rude the vibe has gone rotten .. we had also just read the review on here about staff not getting tips well we noticed that first hand when we wanted to leave a cash tip Disgraceful

Was visiting Buxton (staying at Queens Head) but someone recommended The Swan for its quiz (it is a great pub too). What a fantastic quiz-master - does not stand for cheats who google on their phones! Best version of Stand-up Bingo as well.

With summer finally here I was tempted by the menu in the window of Nocturne. Affogato was just what I hadn't realised I was looking for. And when it came it was just delightful with a wonderful balance between the flavours of espresso and ice cream, and set off by a generous dusting of chocolate and a couple of coffee beans. A relaxing break with classical music in this tiny gem of a cafe in upper Buxton, almost opposite famous second-hand bookshop Scriveners. I can't wait for my next visit.

We typically stop at Sylvie’s for a couple of bacon & egg baps (good old British “brunch”) and the food is always perfect. My wife likes her eggs with a hard yolk, but here 5hey are always JUST hard. In fact not far from perfect. Service is also always friendly. Hard to beat

Great location and pub. Food looked nice but we didn't eat only had a drink.

We had room 7 for a night, it’s a little apartment, which is lovely and perfectly positioned. For those looking for en-suite facilities the loo is the other end of the apartment. More lighting is required at the back (before the gate) The bedroom is a lovely size and plenty blankets etc for extra warmth just felt a bigger bed would be nice as the room can take it. Guessing it’s small / standard double.

The attempt and excellent service is evident, politeness, attention, friendlies, yes that was fine. I can only glean that on the day the chef and bartender, were struggling with a new computer system and aftermath of an inept temporary chef leaving the stocks low. The soup: the soup was delicious. We had to assume there was only a scraping left to serve as the portion, served in A finger bowl wouldn't have filled a mug. My Wife had to get pasty from Gregg's after just to feel like she'd actually had lunch. My All day breakfast, even with vegan sausages as there were no proper ones left, was delicious, the scrambled eggs were perfect but served without bacon. Just forgotten about completely. We weren't asked how our meal was, Probably embarrassment. My pint of cherry porter was gorgeous and my wife's cordial and soda was mixed properly a rarity in this day and age so a mixed bag of emotion. So why didn't we announce our qualms? Only one member of staff on, she was busy with other punters. And we needed to move on. So only 4 stars today.
