The Famous Red Lion Pub

Fine Dining on the edge of the Peak District

With a great selection of beers from around the world and guest ales from local micro brewers together with old favourites, the Red Lion offers one of the best selections of beverages in Derbyshire.

The wine list is extensive with fine red and white wine for every pallet and budget. Our selection of over 30 wines has been carefully chosen to match our food.

We also stock a good range of Malt Whiskies and other fine spirits.

Our Food is mostly sourced locally from the “Garden that is Derbyshire”, we also source “Best in class”.

Our Pork, Lamb, Poultry and 21 day matured steaks are all locally sourced.

The specialist seafood for our Fish Counter comes from all over the UK; Shrimps from Lytham; Lobster and Crab from Anglesy. Fresh Fish is a signature here, it is delivered fresh daily from the market. Fish, Chips and Mushy Peas to Lobster Thermidor - the menu changes daily when the daily catch arrives.

Head Chef Paul Miller, brings with him a wealth of experiance.
