"During our 50-mile ride around the Peaks, we came across this café by chance. It turned out to be a great find for us since it is a vegetarian café, perfect for our group of mostly Muslim friends who can only eat halal meat. The food was delicious and satisfying, just what we needed during our tour. The table service was excellent, provided by two friendly ladies who run the café. There was plenty of outdoor seating and space to park our 11 bikes. Overall, this café was a hidden gem along our route that we were grateful to discover."

"This hotel is not ‘dog friendly’ it is dog tolerant and I believe there is a difference. You cannot have any meals either in the dining room ok but not in the bar or lounge either accompanied by your faithful hound. I did not take kindly to the suggestion to leave my dog in the car having driven for many hours to get there. The hotel and rooms are comfortable but a small fridge would have been a good idea to have fresh milk with tea or in my case to store dog food. Considering the room rate I was surprised at the lack of amenities. There was no dog bowl for water or anything for Fido to sleep on. There are plenty of very good local options at half the price that welcome dogs. You can however book a days fishing direct with the hotel and although it wasn’t mentioned by reception, entrance to Haddon Hall is free if you stay there no dogs there either even in the grounds . No EV car charger but one at the pub next door. The staff were nice but I wouldn’t book again."

"I had a meal here on Friday tea time with a girlfriend. I ordered scampi and chips and my friend ordered the meat pie. When the meal was delivered I couldn’t believe my eyes, the chips were black and burnt and the peas were like bullets. I complained to the young lad who was waiting the tables, he was very pleasant and said he would get us some fresh chips. Our plates were not taken away and when the fresh chips arrived I had eaten my scampi. I was so shocked that the chef sent these meals out with black burnt chips. When I went to pay, I told the landlord that I was very disappointed with the whole meal, he didn’t even offer any reduction in the bill. I will not be going there again."

"Quaint pub restaurant with good service and great food. I booked this for my partners Birthday on Friday. Good range of beers, wines and other drinks, Loved the home made food, great to see something other than burgers. I have recently been diagnosed with a dairy intolerance so the chickpea curry was absolutely delicious with rice and popadums. My partner had the steak and unicorn pie, the unicorn being an ale they sell …we laughed with the friendly manager as I’d thought it might be horse meat! The pie was proper home made not processed and the steak was melt in the mouth , absolute quality and fresh veg too . Nice atmosphere and a quirky range of Toby jugs , must be hundreds of them and just fun looking at them especially the old logos. Friendly service and all in all pleased with our choice. Will visit again."

"As a once a year visitors our custom won't be missed but I believe in a honest review whether good, bad or indifferent.. Unfortunately I have to leave a bad review in the hope the publican takes note. This is our annual visit on the way to paying our Christmas wishes to those family members who are no longer with us and reside in local cemeteries. We have been coming to the Flying Childers for the last ten years as a tradiition on our visits to Derbyshire. We arrived only 45 minutes after opening time to order drinks and food. We chose our fayre and went to order. From our two person choices, no mulled wine (it's Christmas!! no BBQ burger, no sour dough bread and no skinny chips..We made alternative choices as one would. When are coffee arrived it wasn't hot only just warm but we didn't complain. Our meals arrived and when my partner cut her chick pea pastie in half it was still frozen in the middle. I took this meal back to the bar area for a replacement. We couldn't believe that the same cut in half pastie arrived back, apparently warmed up in a microwave and replaced on the same plate as the rest of the half eaten meal. And the salad looked like it had been scraped off the plate and same salad replaced. I would have expected a clean plate a completely fresh pastie and a replacement accompanied meal! Alas we won't be returning again"
