"Second visit in the last two months. Fantastic and authentic cuisine. Very passionate chef. Tells you all about the dishes. How they were made where they originate from. Listens to customers and will add things to the menu. Dipping sauce with dough balls and a delicious plumb tart. Can’t wait to go again. Mouthwatering. Definitely worth a visit."

"The Commercial Inn has recently won local MP, Robert Largen's “Best Pub in the High Peak” award. The pub is located on the corner of Manor Park Road and Sheffield Road but doesn't have it's own car park although street parking is available. The pub was clean and well presented and comprises three rooms that could be described as the bar area, pool room and dining area. Three large muted TV screens were turned on in the pool room and bar areas. The bar staff were smartly dressed and very polite. A food menu was provided but it was necessary to ask for the lunchtime menu which was eventually received. Two real ales were on offer: Timothy Taylor Landlord and Sharp's Solar Wave Hazy IPA as well as a good selection of lagers, ciders, wines and spirits. We ordered a ciabatta from the lunchtime menu as well as a meal from the main menu. The food took 45 minutes to arrive and when received had garden peas instead of the mushy peas that were requested (not a deal breaker but does show inefficiency). The food was of good quality, tastey and well presented. The value for money was OK and if you are in the area it's well worth giving the Commercial Inn a try."

"I researched this café, looking for a meal break in my long journey home from Sheffield. I made a special detour to Glossop to go there. I checked the opening hours on their website the night before, which said they were open until 5pm. It was very disappointing therefore to find all the chairs on the tables and someone cleaning up at just before 3.45. The man explained that they had been very quiet. When I asked about the hours on the website the man said that they didn't know the password to make changes!! Luckily I spotted a Food Hall (not just any food hall... down a path on the opposite side of the road and went there. I try and support the independents but I felt badly let down by this one. I would have been writing a quite different review if the man in the café had had either compassion or a business brain. Both were absent. When I had just travelled an hour to get there and find the café closing, the offer of a hot drink and piece of toast would have been very welcome. As it was I had a very tasty halloumi and falafel wrap in the Food Hall."

"The pub has new tenants and they need to up their game where supplying shiny, clean glassware is concerned. It might have been clean, but the glass supplied with my wife 's cider was watermarked and wet which just doesn 't look nice glasses should sparkle! I noticed that another wine drinking customer also had a freshly cleaned, but grubby looking glass. The pub is attractively decorated with comfortable seating. Being quite spacious, it needs a fair few customers to feel properly 'lived in ', but it was quiet when we visited we enjoy more of a 'buzz '. There 's fierce competition from Old Glossop 's two other pubs, both within 50 metres and so I expect that it 'll take time to build a regular clientele there 's lots of promise though and I wish them well."

"We were informed that almost everything on the full vegan menu was gluten-free, except for a couple of items. We ordered two garlic bread pizzas, two main dishes, a large salad to share, a juice each, and the total bill came to £36. The staff were accommodating and did not seem bothered by catering to vegan and gluten-free diets, unlike some other places. The food was delicious, with the avocado in the salad being particularly creamy and soft."
