With the decor and food, it’s understandable that this gastropub has won mutliple awards. They did seem rather short-staffed upon our visits, which you can imagine the consequences of that, and my friend was moaning about the apparent “excessive greasiness” of his meal - a criticism brought up here by even the kindest of Belper’s resident restaurant critiques. However, we only visited twice so can’t claim that this is a common or recurring issue.A good experience 👍

My husband and I drove to Belper for a bank holiday mooch around, we came across The Devonshire and popped in for a drink and bite to eat, we opted for burgers hubby had the beast and I had the rooster, I have to say it was the best burger I had had I a very long time, it was fresh and delicious. The pub is lovely and inviting and I would definitely visit again.. thanks 😊

This is a lovely place. I love that they're dog-friendly! The staff are lovely - honestly, it was quite busy when we were there, so they were rushed off their feet, but they were always smiling, friendly, and making sure things ran smoothly. Fantastic customer service. We really enjoyed our meal (prepare for large portions!) and I hope we can visit again in the future.

What's not to love? Great options for all tastes, fantastic prices, lovely service, fab meals, free bottle of bubbles on your birthday! Interesting decor, everything in the toilets worked well and was fully stocked and it was relaxed and easy to book a table.Would happily done here again with friends if I was in the area. Thank you 🍾

Called in late on Sunday for a Sunday roast. The veg was very nicely cooked but I didn’t like the way the roast way layered up. The biggest disappointment was the beef was a little tough and I didn’t get the opportunity to specify how I wanted the beef cooked. The value was good 4 meals cost about £80 with drinks

Lovely little place with the quirkiest decor about. Really warm and homely vibes, with a variety of choices on the menu and caters to vegetarians as well. Extremely attentive, welcoming and friendly staff. And desserts are to die for!!

A fabulous pub which I only wish was closer to where we live!Himself was super happy with the in-house ales and I was happy with my drinks being served the exact way I like them.Got the sharing bucket of chips with the sausage, black pudding, chorizo and cheese topping between us and was incredible 😋. I then had the Biscoff biscuit brownie which is as every bit delicious as it sounds.We are regular visitors to the area and I am beyond gutted that it has took us this long to frequent this business, but it will certainly not be our last time here.We will be back!!!

Owned by Dancing Duck (same as the Exeter in Derby) so obviously there's the full range of Dancing Duck beers; however, in similar fashion to the Exeter there's guest cask alongside keg lager/cider and keg craft, there's also a decent range of craft in cans.Obviously soft drinks and hot drinks are also available.The food menu is impressive with everything looking really good, so good that it's actually pretty hard to choose.We ended up with a hanging kebab served with a really fresh salad and fries and a Bangalore burger with massala fries.... both of which were absolutely superb.The interior is pretty cool, classy yet slightly quirky which works really well, all the staff were really nice, polite and friendly, but not over the top which can come across as a bit fake sometimes.Absolutely worth going to, especially if you're hungry.

Called in because they are dog friendly. Very warm welcome, lovely and warm inside on a very wet day.Super menu with too much to choose from. Very different dishes compared to any other menu we have seen.Dog was served first with water and a biscuit, and another water refill.Great service and absolutely fabulous food. Tried the dirty fries with filthy sauce and it was amazing, wonderful taste, great value and plenty as a sharer.Must come back because there is more food we need to try, as well as having the same dish again.Lovely friendly environment, super service and great atmosphere.See you again soon.
