The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in East Midlands

Under new ownership Bennetts is transforming back to an even higher standard than it once was a few years ago. The new management have only been there 2 months and made such a difference already. Our 2 night stay was in a recently refurbished room. Sheets and towels were crisply clean. The ensuite wet room type shower is separate from the toilet. The bed was comfortable and we got undisturbed sleep. Our meal in the restaurant was well cooked and not the usual Anglo-Indian palette of flavours, possibly because the new proprietors are originally from Nepal and have run 2 restaurants before. Breakfast availability and some minor tweaks would make this 5 star. Car parking is off-street and free

Always fabulous, but now closed.

Had a lovely hot roast pork sandwich, it was obviously all homemade and the stuffing was one of the best I’ve tasted , been a few times on my visits to bakewell with my wife and couldn’t recommend it more highly

Incredible friendly staff. A bit above average price for drinks, but a pleasant venue.

I hired out there function room July 2024, price was reasonable for what you got, I was able to provide my own food/DJ. As for the so called “staff” half of them did not even work there they were “helping out a friend” so no bar experience at all. Had to ask them to go and buy basic fruit for drinks from Asda as there was none at all. Had to explain what drinks we wanted and what was in them. They were charging us wrong every time we bought a drink, £22 for two Hugo Sprits then £16 for one. When we asked about this they had no explanation. There seemed to be no one in charge of the function, just looked like had no clue what they were doing. The bartender Emily was the one who helped the most (as she was the only one who worked there). Would not recommend to have a function here if you want it run by people who do not know what they are doing.

Parked in customer parking, board clearly mentioned that. Was half way out of my car and the owner (?) lady came out yelling, claiming that I couldn’t park my car there. There were several other cars parked there. Told me that she could call the “police” on us and everyone else parked there if she wanted (I hadn’t even said a word to her yet) and that I should park elsewhere. When I mentioned that I wanted to order food and ask what time the shop was closing down, I was told to shut up. Two other white families came and parked a minute after this altercation, she said nothing to them. I’m a POC. So is she? Problematic. Internalised racism, I guess. Her breath stank too when she was all up in my face. Like, really bad. Would not recommend, unless you can somehow make it inside without her crazy self demanding you leave there.

Wonderful stay (again). Great atmosphere and great food at very reasonable prices. Special mention for the lovely ladies who work so very hard in the bar and restaurant - always smiling, cheerful and nothing is too much trouble. Sadly, same can't be said about the landlord.

As locals we have eaten here a few times now and always have lovely food and excellent service. Pie night last week was fab and the fish and chips is delicious. Sunday lunch is a real treat. 😋 We look forward to many more yummy meals and entertaining evenings watching live bands. Keep up the great work. We’re lucky to have you.

Just had a cake and cold drink such nice little place and the two staff on today gave me excellent service so friendly and polite will come again

Want to say a big thank you to billy and Claudia for helping with our order tonight! The website allowed me to order a delivery when the delivery driver had finished for the day, so they refunded us with the Delivery charge that I paid and a slice cake! Food was absolutely banging and will defiantly be ordering again! Thanks again to the team!

Great place for a bite to eat and a drink. Went as a group of 9 friends. The staff were very helpful with pre-ordering our food and the service was very good, the food was excellent and very fairly priced. Highly recommended.

Rang 3times to book room but no answer, left message on answerphone but no reply. Asked for a call back but no response. Have stayed here before but not treated like this!! Will not try again!!!

The cafe is permanently shut and has been converted to an outside bar only used in the summer. It needs to be removed from Tripadvisor. Fortunately, they still do a nice pot of tea in the bar

What a cracking little pub this is! A warm welcome and an excellent selection of ales and ciders, I can heartily recommend the Bee Sting honey cider…it’s strong but absolutely delicious. We’ll certainly be going back.

Visited today for Sunday Roast/Mothering Sunday treat. On arrival, staff were polite, pleasant, and welcoming. We ordered our drinks and were asked if we would like to be seated for our meal. In the process of being seated, one of our party managed to knock her mums glass of wine over the table ! The owner could see this was causing some upset and promptly had the table cleaned and replaced the spilt wine free of charge, along with consoling the guilty party !. The meal arrived in a timely manner, and wow, what a feast, I opted for the large Sunday roast and it was delicious, 3 different meats, roast potatoes, roast carrots, parsnips and 2x Yorkshire puddings came plated, then arrived the veg, broccoli, green beans, mash, cauliflower cheese, and dauphinoise potatoes. The meal was piping hot and served with lovely gravy. By the time the meal was finished I was stuffed. On seeing the puddings being served around me I wished I had left room. 10/ 10 for service quality and welcome. We will deffo return and Thank-You for your kind gesture with the spillage
