Very popular place on the edge of the peak district. Got to give five stars for the food alone. But really, can’t fault the place. Plenty of parking, good ambience, great coffee, good choice of beers and not a wobbly table to found! I will definitely go there again and recommend it to anyone. PS if banging/slamming doors get on your nerves then avoid the bar area next to the toilet entrance. Unless , of course, they’ve fixed by the time read this!
prebooked a table for 4 on wednesday lunch 1:30pm. arrived 1:10pm and the pub was already busy. menu is not extensive but prices are reasonable. staffs were friendly. all the food we ordered were tasty. fish in fish and chips was fresh.
I had my small / micro wedding here in August. The whole team especially Charlotte the manager made our wedding reception perfect. The communication and service was incredible and really relaxed/stress-free. The chef’s food was delicious every course / option was well-received - I had the halloumi and sea bass which were perfect and all the waiting on staff were super efficient and friendly. As you can see from the photos the private area is really cosy and intimate. Can’t wait to come back!
Excellent, staff very helpful and friendly. Good choice for lunch, decent sized portions and reasonably priced. I had an excellent roast beef sandwich Toilets immaculate !!
I wish I could give more then 5 * to be honest!! The place looks super stylish Food tasted delicious ! The waitress we had Sheldy was so lovely and down to earth x Such a lovely meal x If your passing going in you would not be disappointed!
Had a lovely evening meal with family. The food was superb and the service good . Also seemed reasonable on price . Will definitely be going again .
Difficult to grade The Peacock because lots was 5* but other things were disappointing. It’s possibly a brilliant place to eat and we just were unlucky. Anyone can have an off-day, so I won’t mention the grumpy waitress and will instead say that two of the serving staff were pleasant and friendly. The menu looked great for both carnivores and veggies. I chose the prawn cocktail, which was tasty and well presented. I then had the hot smoked salmon salad. Not sure why it was described as hot, as it was all cold & not spicy. The salad was pleasant enough, and I had a side order of potatoes which were cooked perfectly. There was too much salmon in fact the dish was mainly salmon. We also ordered a halloumi burger and fries. This was simply too salty to eat. The fries were COVERED in salt. Maybe there was an accident in the kitchen, or perhaps the chef got distracted and salted them twice. We switched with less salty chips from a different plate. From someone in our family, in case you’re worried we stole them from an adjoining table. Chicken wings, sausages and regular burger all good. Pudding a big disappointment. I was keen to try the waffle with strawberries and ice cream. The strawberries were...one strawberry. Just one. It was perfectly ripe, placed decoratively on top, but really? One strawberry is a garnish, not ‘strawberries.’ The ice cream wasn’t vanilla had assumed it would be. It was salted caramel they like salt here. Would have been better if that had been mentioned in the menu or by the waitress. The waffle however was warm and fresh and perfect.
First time bin was birthday party lunchtime menu £15 each but it's worth it food bang on service great.staff friendly. Meal enormous would go there again
Second time visiting after walks at Linacre Reservoirs and didn't disappoint either time. Both visits were without reservation but they happily squeezed us in. Food is delicious and service is top notch.
Came here for a Sunday lunch and to meet family. The staff and manager in charge were all super helpful and friendly and very attentive. It's also a really nice pub and nicely decorated. Old style cost pub with a modern lift to it. The food was also really nice. Would thoroughly recommend!
