   We tend to visit Devonshire Arms during our stay in Peak District every year. The service is always good, staff polite and helpful. My husband ordered chicken Sunday roast. The meat was very dry and not edible. My husband complained and it was handled very well by a waitress and a manager. They apologised and didn’t charge for a meal. They also offered a free dessert. Rest of us had very tasty and well cooked meals. Overall, it was a good experience for most of us. We will return next year.

   An excellent location from Chatsworth House. The food was very good, portion sizes were good and everyone enjoyed the meal.

   We had booked based on the online menu and had hoped for the supper club menu (selected days). When in Baslow, we read on a board outside this was Wednesdays only. On arriving we were told there were two items not available - the restaurant was not busy. My friends chose... 1) the pie and pint option. On paying, it was revealed that the pint he had chosen was not oncluded in the deal so he was charged for it. However, on complaining, this was changed. 2)the sea trout and prawns. When this (finally) arrived, it was lukewarm and dried up. It had obviously been standing on the side. My husband and I both chose the Korean chicken burger and Asian slaw. What came was a pice of breadcrumbed chicken and four slices of raw pepper. Nothing whatever Korean and/or Asian.

   Dear Gill, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're genuinely sorry to hear about your recent experience at The Devonshire Arms. In future if you are wanting a specific menu it might be best to contact the venue first to check what days it is served to avoid disappointment. We also apologise for the confusion regarding the pie and pint deal but it does list the drinks included in the offer on the menu, we will look for a way to make these clearer. Your comments about the dishes are noted and we regret that they did not meet your expectations. Your feedback is invaluable, and we will address these concerns with our team to ensure improvements are made. We hope you might consider giving us another chance in the future. Kind regards, The Devonshire Arms Team

   Lovely environment and dog friendly. Waiting staff were lovely but service was very slow presumably due to staffing. Food was excellent but desserts very overpriced.

   Good to have a inn where dogs are welcome in the restaurant and we were not asked to sit in the bar.

   Lovely pub was quite busy though due to Mother’s Day and we had to wait 40 minutes before being seated and then another half an hour for a bread starter otherwise was nice food and amazing service.
