Old Black Horse
Main St, Mapperley, IlkestonWe recently visited The Old Black Horse at Mapperly, and it was absolutely fantastic, with excellent service and a lovely feel to the place.
This is a truly stunning country pub, delivering tasty, high quality food.
It was our first time here for dining, and we had reserved a table in the dog friendly garden room for a birthday meal. If you would prefer to eat away from dogs (why would you though?) the restaurant dining area itself doesn't allow our four legged friends inside.
The pub itself is really beautifully presented with traditional features, and the staff were so incredibly friendly and polite. We felt very welcome.
We thoroughly enjoyed some lovely cider and delicious cold beer. The house wine was great too.
The food was amazing, with generous portions that were both delicious and satisfying, really reflecting high quality. We even treated ourselves to a delicious griddle cookie for desert, which was lovely.
The outdoor spaces are a real highlight. The beautiful, well kept garden is full of stunning flowers, creating a really picturesque, relaxed setting.
There are plenty of seating areas outside, including a very comfortable smoking area with outdoor sofas!
We were particularly impressed by how incredibly dog friendly it is, especially with the pub including a dining area where our furry friends are truly welcome. Our tiny terror loved it!
Will we go back? Most definitely!
A huge thank you to the wonderful staff for such a truly memorable experience!

Raheem Indian Restaurant & Takeaway
Unit B, The Dales, West Hallam, IlkestonThe best Indian restaurant in the Ilkeston area. The second time we have been since the extension and with our 2 year old daughter. The food was absolutely incredible and service even better. They have been so kind and have made such a fuss of our daughter both times, including playing with her and giving her a treat at the end. Every member of staff is brilliant such kind people, can not recommend this place enough. :)

West Hallam Fryer
The Dales Shopping Centre, West Hallam, IlkestonWe live 6/7 miles away and have so many local fish and chip shops around but we choose to travel to West Hallam Fryer due to the quality and how delicious the food is. Everything is cooked fresh, staff are super friendly and we haven't had a single bad meal from here in all the times we have ordered. Nothing is too much trouble and we return every week.
Our personal highlights:
The fish bites are amazing, full of fish unlike many other places we have tried that seem to be just batter and dried out fish. The chicken meat is always flavoursome and never dry. The battered halloumi is one of my partners favourites and the chips are always fresh. The batter itself just tastes so much better than anywhere else and is always so crisp, just as it's meant to be! And the portion sizes are rather generous compared to other places, we feel this place is great value for money!
We look forward to our order every week. Well done!

Rutland Cottage
Heanor Rd, IlkestonI visited tonight with my wife. I had Steak & Ale Pie (with mash) my wife had the 8oz rump med rare with mushrooms on the side. To start with the place was nice and busy with a great atmosphere. The food was excellent, I try hard to clear my plate, on this occasion I couldn't. The pie was rammed packed with tender steak, mash and peas added to it. My wife said the steak was cooked just right. The staff were polite and friendly. All in all it was a great night. We will definitely be back and next time with friends. One thing I need to remember for the future is to have more cash available, the tip we left did not reflect the service or quality. I'll make it up next time.
