    The best pub meal we've ever had! This is a gem of a pub with a remarkable menu. The range of dishes available is unlike anything we've seen at any other pub and "spoilt for choice" certainly applies here. We will certainly be returning to try more of the amazing dishes on offer. Really tasty food, good portions, excellent service, an excellent range of drinks (gin lovers will not be disappointed) and a nice comfy ambience too. Absolutely superb!!

    We ordered from the Christmas lunch menu. Two of us are vegetarian and one is vegan, unusually there were plenty options. For the nut roast you get to choose from the carvery veg and it's all clearly labelled. Veggie gravy, roasties, stuffing and loads of other options were available. Deserts were good too, trillionaires tart is vegan and looked delicious. Overall, one of the best veggie Christmas lunches we've had in the area for a while, £22.50 for 2 courses is good value. First time we've been here in years and will definitely return.

    Excellent as always, nothing too much trouble for the staff and always pleasant and attentive. Food was excellent, we had the 9 course tasting menu which was wonderfully amended to suit my wife's intolerances. Every course was a delight. Has to be one of the best restaurants, if not THE Best, in Derby. While it remains this good we will continue to return.
