Lovely pub and amazing food, staff very welcoming and all food is home made by the lovely Michelle, can she cook a steak and ale Pie? Ohhh yes!!! The best pie I’ve ever tried. Will definitely be returning, my wife had the fisherman’s pie which was also really good. Can’t recommend enough!

Lovely friendly pub, good to watch all the bike pull in and roar off. Had a fair few drinks and had a meal, whilst it was large and ok, disappointing that it-was not hot, had the curry very large portions and ok for a pub curry, but was not overly hot, which put me off. Friend had jacket pot with prawn/cheese again not hot, cheese didn’t even melt.Would return but for drinks only.

Had a day out in matlock decided to call in for lunch ordered lamb and mint burger and large steak pie after waiting 45 mins I got toasted bun with a burnt burger could not even eat it gave it to a other customers dog and he spat it out as for the pie took 10 mins to get into it because we didn't have a bloody chainsaw to get into it this meal must have been warmed up dozen times or microwaved it was that solid we left and had fish and chips up the road nice pub but you need to deliver fresh food not warmed up crap

I just had Lamb and mint pie. I can honestly say hand on heart I have never eaten any pie remotely as good as this. It was full of Lamb with the perfect mint flavour. It was more food than even I could eat, and I am a big bloke who loves my grub. The pastry was moist but cooked to perfection.My partner had Steak and Guinness pie. Hers was also beyond amazing. These pies are home made and you can truly tell. I doubt they have ever been near a freezer, and rightly so. I cannot rave about this enough. The new landlord is a truly jovial Liverpudlian who immediately makes you feel at ease. The bar staff are attentive and polite, Jo in particular, they help you feel local even if you are not.Granted this is not a chain 2 for a tenner pub, but despite paying a little more, it is more than excellent value for money.The beer is well kept and there is a good choice of real ale, tap beers and lagers, along with a choice of wines, spirits and yes a good tap Guinness. I live over 10 miles away but suspect I shall be a local from now on.

Big portions and super tasty. Popped in for lunch- I had the prawn mayo sandwich with chips and my boyfriend had the ploughman's. The sandwich had so many prawns in thick fresh bread with salad and delicious chips. The ploughman's had two cheeses, ham, sausage roll and pork pie and was huge! Would definitely come back.

Lovely pub, owners are so friendly and make you feel welcome the minute you walk through the door. Food is delicious. Dog friendly. Highly recommend if in the area.
A must visit if you are staying in Matlock bath. Second time eating here and always such a friendly and warm welcome. Cosy environment and the food is second to none. Good choice on the menu and portions are huge! Very impressed and will definitely return when we next holiday in Matlock bath. Thank you!

Lovely little place. Have been here a few times now but only ever for drinks.Little on the pricy side but is to be expected based on location.Toilets are lovely and clean, which is a huge stand out factor compared to a few places surrounding.
