The Stable Bar in Derbyshire Dales

We stumbled across this place 5 or 6 years ago by accident. We have been looking for it ever since. We somehow managed to find it again after driving around the area we thought it was near 😂 An amazing place to walk great views and nice long walking trails perfect for the dog! The pub at the top is also nice after a long walk followed by an ice cream from the cafe next door. Definetly worth a trip out too 🙏

Been a few times whilst out hiking nearby. Had a lovely bitter. Love this place. I would give it 5 but -1 star as decor tired and building work on way into toilets and also the barman, what a misery.

Great place to stop that's also dog friendly too. A steep staircase down to Monsal Trail if you fancy it. Great views all round and around 10 minutes drive from Curbar Edge. Don't let the drizzle put you off, you'll soon forget about it. #personalfavourite

Brilliant stop after a walk down the monsal trail. The ale was nice and me and my partner shared a ciabatta sandwich which was just 👌 If you sir outside you overlook the viaduct and the river which is just beautiful. Pay as you display and only get up to 1 hour which is a shame.

The room wasn't very clean, especially the bathroom. Down stairs the lounge area was closed off and everything looked a bit tired. Food was ok. The overall cost of £160/night B&B is way too high.

Beautiful place. But don't understand, why motorbikes need to pay parking?! Mostly nowhere they pay, not talking about where to place the ticket and protect it against the theft.

Popped in for lunch on a drive around the area. Passed by during the summer and it looked popular so we thought we'd give it a try. It was a good decision, friendly, good menu selection, located in a converted stable with many original features preserved. We both chose the ploughman's which was very generous. Nice thick slices of ham, pork pie, a good wedge of mature cheddar, a nice chutney and salad. Considering that it was quite busy, it only took about 10 minutes to arrive. It's a shame we didn't have our dog with us. I'm sure she would have helped polish it off. It's worth noting that The Monsal Head is dog friendly and, while we were there, it was very popular with dog walkers (all well behaved ).

We planned a 10k loop with the intention of eating here. The car park is right next to the pub. The food was excellent and served really quickly. They had a good selection of beer. Don't bother with the coffee.

Lovely room with a fabulous view. The menu for evening meal was very limited and last orders for food too early. The exterior of the hotel in need of attention. The breakfast however was outstanding.

Had a great 60th birthday get together here for my sister Deb. Family joined us so we had a party of 7. Stable room full of nostalgia, and original horse tack decorates the room.Ken was a brilliant host he clearly works very hard managing the running of the bar and hotel. The newly refurbished en-suite rooms are very nice andthe views over Monsal are truly beautiful!The food was excellent for our evening meal and such generous portions, service spot on!Breakfast was so good, and again so much delicious food! I'm vegan and they catered very well for me, so that was an added bonus! However the meat eaters feasted away, to their hearts content.Sue did a great job serving up the breakfasts, and nothing was too much trouble!We'll definitely be visiting again, and they are so dog friendly ... 🐾🐾💙🐾🐾👍
