What our visitors say
Me and my partner arrived at short notice with little knowledge of the hotel and were pleasantly surprised. The staff were really friendly and helpful, really professional too. The quality of service and the complimentary items in the room deserve mentioning, they were a much higher quality than I expected it to be for a 3* establishment. The newly refurbished bar and restaurant was spectacular - can’t wait to see the bedrooms when they’re done! The rooms were really comfortable, clean and spacious. We would definitely come again!
Lifeistooshort26
Fantastic night away, ended up eating three times due to the great range of dishes. All of which were cooked to perfection. Me and my partner were so spoilt for choice that we ended up having 4 starters and ended up mopping up the plates. Strongly recommend to anyone looking for a night away or food in the Peak District!

We went for a Saturday evening meal. It was the first time we’ve been to The Maynard (newly revamped) and we will definitely be returning. The food was very good, with some interesting vegetarian options, and Abi and Kate who served us were both friendly and professional. The restaurant is smart, the environment relaxed, with some nice views of the garden and beyond. All in all, a very nice evening.

We have enjoyed eating her on several occasions. The food is always excellent. A wonderful choice of wines at sensible prices. Service which is superlative! Friendly. Fast. Attentive. Congratulations to Abbey & Sarah who made our visit extra special.

We spent two nights at the Maynard and enjoyed every minute. Our room was spacious, with a new bathroom and the biggest bed I've ever seen which was as comfortable as it looked. The wifi was good which makes a change! Breakfast was excellent. We ate in the restaurant both nights as we liked the food and there was plenty of choice. The Maynard has been revamped and everything has been done to a high standard with great attention to detail. What really made the difference though is the team - everyone we dealt with was friendly, helpful and good at their job and made our stay something to remember.

During the current lockdown, The Maynard are providing a takeaway service, with the cuisine theme changing each week. The Sunday Roast was cooked to perfection, and this weekends Katsu Curry was incredibly flavoursome. The Maynard takeaway is becoming our weekend ritual, and we’re already looking forward to next weekends burger offering. Also, NHS staff currently eat for free, which is a touching gesture of thanks. Highly recommended!
AWomanintheWoods
We have really enjoyed the takeaway menus prepared by The Maynard during Lockdown. The Thai curry and the Katsu curry were full of flavour and the Sunday roasts were both generous and delicious. A highlight on V E Day was a beautifully presented afternoon tea! These takeaways are a very welcome treat, well priced,excellent service and very good food! Thank you!
lockdown1
During the Covid 19 lockdown my family and I enjoyed the burgers to take away tonight. It was superb, and the beef brisket in particular was delicious! The collection process was so well organised and efficient, and it is excellent value for money with huge portions! We’re very excited to come and eat in person when we are allowed to!
emilyfitz1994
Popped in for Sunday lunch with some friends and found the staff attentive, the food cooked beautifully and setting splendid - Rob and his team have certainly made a stunning impact at the Maynard and we look forward to a return visit. Definitely recommend the Roast Beef!!
Bad_Ankle
Thank you for making us feel so welcome today. Excellent location, excellent service and excellent food. Highlights from our menu choices were the Sardines, Venison Ravioli, Lamb Tagine and Katsu Curry. We will be visiting again soon.

We had a really lovely three nights at the Maynard, with dinner each evening to save driving, and we couldn't have been happier. The welcome was so warm, even for our boisterous dog, and the food terrific. We booked a fairly low-end room but it was extremely comfortable - next time we'll try to book one with a view, since it is so stunning. We made a good tour of the menu and the food was without exception delicious, beautifully prepared and presented. Just lovely! We'll do our very best to be back soon.

Our 2 night stay with family, was excellent. Great service, wonderful food and amazing views. The full package.

Last week my husband and I went to the Maynard to celebrate our second wedding anniversary (we got married there) and had a wonderful time! The staff were really friendly and attentive,particularly our waitress Kate, and the food was wonderful! I would definitely recommend anyone in the area to treat themselves to a meal here!
chloe_r_nu
We stopped here for a family lunch after a hike in Pedley Gorge. The food and service was excellent. The staff were friendly and helpful, and service was prompt. The menu has some excellent choices and all our meals were of a high standard of presentation and of a good quality. The desserts were also excellent and between us we had a Vegan Cheesecake (very oaty!) a pistachio tiramisu and a chocolate brownie - all of which were fantastic. The decor is smart and modern, we ate inside as it was raining but the garden also looked good with plenty of seating.

Very enjoyable lunch at the Maynard. Decent weather (for a change) meant we could sit outside in a lovely garden setting. Food good, excellent beer and wine choice, all served by Siobhan who looked after us excellently.
kevinhill61
This was our second time visiting the Maynard for a meal and both times have been fantastic. Food was delicious and the service mainly from Kate but from all staff was great! Would highly recommend and will be visiting more.
charlottebH2908DF
A great meal out served by a delightful girl Kate. Hake and Salmon, BlueberryCheese cake to die for and icecream and berries delicious. A lovely meal beautifully presented. Will be back
Journey170019
I cannot say that I have been before but I have driven past a good few times, I had seen the place advertised on Instagram and I thought it looked amazing so as I had planned a day out for a walk and paddle at Padley Gorge I thought there would be no better way to start the day than a good breakfast. The service was prompt and really friendly, The food was gorgeous - This was defo the best black pudding I have had with a breakfast! The decor and atmosphere is really welcoming and chic. I cannot wait to visit again!
TheBigLass
Had Sunday lunch here after not being for about 10 years. It has really changed! The menu was excellent with a wide variety of choice, so something for everybody. The service was attentive and pleasing, being served by Abi & Ellie. We liked everything we were served with... a lot! My only complaint is that the lack of soft furnishings makes the noise level high. We were seated in the upper level of the restaurant.
alf69
Decided to try out this restaurant having not been to The Maynard Arms for a long time. Our servers - Lexi and Sam - were welcoming, friendly and receptive to our needs. We'd definitely recommend the sirloin steak - fantastic flavour, & cooked exactly as we'd requested. The atmosphere was bright and airy with a good vibe. In spite of the driving rain and wind, the view of the Hope Valley from our seats was spectacular. Well worth visiting.
DiscerningPallet
We enjoyed a very pleasant evening meal in the comfortable dining room, with great views over the garden and surrounding valley. Menu choices were interesting and varied, and the food that arrived was excellent with generous portions and great flavours. Staff were helpful and efficient; our main waitress, Lexi, gave us helpful advice about menu choices, remaining attentive without being instrusive throughout the evening. Covid 19 guidelines were in place so we felt safe and relaxed. We look forward to coming again!
gmwhite2016
The staff and management were attentive, friendly and helpful. We celebrated our daughters 18th with close family and friends, the Maynard provided a fantastic brunch for us all. They respected social distancing and gently reminded members of our group to adhere to the guidance too. The tables were distanced into bubbles but we felt together. Thank you helping make this celebration an event to remember in these strange times.
mrsb3080
I dined here twice and the staff were very friendly and helpful. It was easy to find and also park up.
NickLiam1987
Whilst staying in Grindleford, as a family we visited the Maynard twice. The first time for food and drinks and the second for drinks in the beer garden with entertainment. Both times we were served by Kate, a fantastic waitress- no request was too big for her and she was very attentive and friendly. The food was brilliant and drinks were perfect. The entertainment on the Sunday (x factor singer and pianist) were brilliant, we didn’t want to leave! Will definitely return if we ever visit Grindleford again.
Rebecca1411
came to grindleford for a country walk and came across this restaurant/ hotel. the staff were fantastic, really friendly and attentive. the best beer garden we’ve ever been to, views of the peaks and the fantastic pub building. the Sunday roast was perfect, couldn’t fault it! will defiantly be returning
username2627
I have not stayed at the Maynard but will be very soon. I called to arrange for a bottle of wine to be put in my daughters room on her arrival for her birthday. I spoke with a charming lady called Charlotte who went above and beyond what seems to be the norm these days. She even offered to put a personal note with the bottle and ensure that any cards which had been arranged would also be in her room. Well done Charlotte, this is why it is called hospitality!!
Lloydie1
Just called in for lunch today What an awesome experience Great beers Wonderful food Breathtaking views Lovely helpful and friendly staff Felt very safe with all the safety precautions in place Brought back lovely memories of 21 years ago when we got married here Thanks to all the staff Your doing a great job
Andrew D
We were staying at The Maynard and decided to eat at the hotel restaurant every evening as the food was exceptional quality and the menu was extensive enough for us to try something new each evening. The restaurant also caters for vegan/vegetarian and gluten free diners.
BellaAUK77
Had a lovely 2 night stay Enjoyed every minute Room spot on with a great view Had evening meal first night Both had the fillet steak I can honestly say The best steak in years hoping to come back one day Kevin and Diane Cottingham East Yorkshire
kevin221256
We are here as part of a stay at the hotel and could not fault the food or service. Both were excellent.
I7651TMkellyg
We ate here all 3 nights of our stay and found dishes that appealed to us enough to have something different each evening. My wife found the Sea Bream and Samphire Risotto sublime and the most tender fillet steak and had it twice. My Belly Pork Croquette was stuffed full of tasty meat. The handmade Brisket and Cheese Burger was one of the nicest I have had for a while.
KimSoutham
Had read about the "New" Maynard locally following its purchase and refurbishment earlier in the year. We had been intending to go for lunch at the legendary Grindleford Station Café but when we got there discovered they didn't take cards and we didn't have any cash on us so we continued on our Padley Gorge/Longshaw walk and then drove to the Maynard for lunch. My lambs liver and mash with a side of red cabbage was excellent and my wife really enjoyed her steak baguette with a side of sweet potato fries. Shame after all the effort the new owners have put in that they now have to close for a month.
Nick S
What can I say about this amazing place? Rob has brought the village a venue like no other. Atmosphere amazing. Staff fantastic. Love this place.
juliepV2280HX
Whilst living locally have only recently stumbled upon the Maynard following Rob's recent purchase. Have not yet had the opportunity to eat in the restaurant (booking had to be cancelled due to lockdown rules). However, have had a number of takeaway meals in the last few weeks including Sunday lunch. All have been excellent. Great quality and expertly cooked. The Maynard, under Rob and staff, is a great addition to the area and we look forward to eating in the restaurant on a regular basis once we are through these challenging times.
Calver999
We had a take out meal to finish cooking at home. 3 courses plus chocolates! Not only was it delicious, sushi and duck breast for starters, teriyaki salmon for mains and chocolate fondant and pear crumble but the gluten free dishes were clearly marked, which is so reassuring. Thanks for making such a treat during lockdown.
SpookNewton
We were highly delighted with the 3 course takeaway and complimentary chocolates. All courses were really delicious with minimal work needed to complete the preparations at home. The menu provided a good choice and we settled on the sushi starter, beef Wellington main and chocolate fondant dessert. We were not disappointed. In fact, very impressed! The complimentary chocolates were the ‘icing on the cake’ as they were homemade and just so pretty. It was a real treat and an experience we would happily repeat in future years. We are now looking forward to visiting the restaurant when it is able to reopen.
NWCalver
Family meal , excellent atmosphere sitting outside in the sun, everyone happy- staff & customers having a really nice time. Fantastic service, food was excellent. Good menu , good choice. Plenty of GF options which can be a issue for my Dad. Everywhere spotlessly clean , staff can't do enough for you to make sure you enjoy your experience.
Minibrasso
We had a lovely Sunday lunch sat outside in the sunshine. It was great to see so many people out enjoying themselves after such a long lockdown. The staff were excellent (Arron served us). It was well organised & the food was cooked to perfection. I can recommend the roast pork, it came with all of the trimmings and was delicious. The live music set the atmosphere and it was a perfect afternoon out. Thank you
SallyN373
Super lunch in the garden, very busy which was great to see. Duo playing who were excellent. Katie our waitress was friendly and attentive. We will return.
westue
First time in The Maynard and YOU have to go! It’s the cutest spot with amazing food. The Maynard is to die for. IT WAS FIRE!! The service we received was so amazing and we will definitely be back again. They made us feel welcomed and gave us an amazing experience. Big thank you to our waitresses Kate and Abi very personable and efficient service.
2002deyandemonov
Really enjoyed our first dinner inside since lockdown. Great food and excellent value. Thanks to Kaye and Siobhan who looked after us so well.
RobDJ
Six of us enjoyed a memorable first venture post lockdown and what better way to celebrate than to experience a truly excellent lunch at this beautifully refurbished hotel. The menu was expansive and imaginative, offering a wide choice for every taste. My husband and I chose twice baked cheese soufflé followed by rabbit wrapped in parma ham - both were absolutely delicious and very well presented. Special thanks go to our two delightful waitresses Kate and Abbie who were super efficient and personable. We shall certainly return!
Antikwitty
Called in to celebrate my partner's new job , lovely warm welcome by staff on the main entrance, we asked to be seated in the garden area, stunning view with well maintained gardens. We had a fantastic member of staff called Abi who made our afternoon even more special. Thank you Chris and Lindy
S8802KTchrisw
One word. Fab! Called in today for Sunday lunch with the family. Food and service was amazing. Special thanks to Nancy.
Andrew D
We had a lovely famiy meal sitting in the sun. The moules was outstanding. Skinny fries done to perfection. And great to have normal menus and service rather than Instagraming a robot app in Bolivia
Andrew S
Visited the Maynard on Sunday for the first time since its reopening. The decor is really lovely and the food was very good. The place was extremely busy due to the wonderful Bank Holiday weather, but there were plenty of staff who were very attentive without being overbearing. Thanks in particular to George & Kate.
SukiJim
We really enjoyed our visit and hope to return. We arrived by bicycle in the afternoon and were able to order a meal. We were also able to keep our bikes safe inside the pub. The staff were very friendly and accommodating and the meals seemed reasonably priced.
rcmantis
We drove from Derby to come to the Maynard and it was absolutely worth it. The starting sharer was delicious and the home made chips were perfectly cooked. Every member of staff we interacted with was a delight to speak to and incredibly helpful. The atmosphere in the restaurant was just right with the tables spaced far enough part to feel private. We can’t wait to come back.
rachelwI1712AM
Had a very pleasant lunch here sat in the sunny garden. Staff friendly and helpful. Lunch was excellent and faultless. Not the cheapest but I don’t mind paying for quality. Toilets modern and clean. Inside dining area looked really good. Social distancing and sanitising good. Recommended
Paul B
Had an evening meal here and it was lovely . Sardines to start followed by crispy duck in sweet and sour orange sauce . Desserts were delicious too
susan f
The food was wonderful and just the right quantity so we were able to fit dessert in as well! Efficient and pleasant service, attractive surroundings.
W3258GHceliap
Really nice restaurant. The staff were friendly, Abi in particular was a joy, great energy and very helpful. We ordered the duck orange (wow!) And a beef brisket burger (also very good!), Thoroughly enjoyed the food and place. Agreed we would definitely be coming back next time we visit.
Pav L
When we pulled up to The Maynard, we were overwhelmed by how beautiful the building and the scenery were! Set in the stunning Peak District hills, we had the perfect weather for our special occasion meal here. The food was delicious, with different and interesting flavour combinations and presented beautifully. I would 100% recommend dining here for a special occasion.
Medusa16
We were there as part of a wedding group. Food and facilities were great, although some parts in the bar are getting a little worn looking, however the service was amazing! Nothing too much trouble and the staff were always friendly and smiling. Can't remember having such good service!
David W
Good food, good atmosphere, really great staff. Would definitely recommend and wish we had found it earlier in the holiday as we would have returned.
O2103BHalexandrad
Booked a table at very short notice. Fantastic food, great service, very reasonably priced, lovely environment. Highly recommend.
RuthEC
Popped in for a quick drink with a friend, lovely staff and top class service. Kate took care of us outside and recommended a sharer dessert which we couldn’t turn down. When the weather became cold and the midges came out we asked her to transfer inside, to which she was so accommodating and kind. She’s a star ⭐️
mattstrawford
We ate in the bar area, the service was friendly and the food was delicious. My son loved his fish goujons and my fish was cooked perfectly. The sharing platter we had for a starter was amazing! A good selection of drinks and the waiter was very knowledgeable.
hailieAt
Really great dinner and breakfast. Highly recommend the mushroom risotto - the best I have had anywhere
brettandeleanorb
Lovely resturant to meet friends . Wonderful and varied menu with fresh local ingredients . Staff are very attentive ,we were served by a lovely young man called Bertie who was very polite and had good local knowledge.
HEMcMullan
Had a fantastic Sunday lunch with family. The food was amazing and the service was great; nothing was too much trouble. The selection of desserts was lovely. Such a wonderful setting. Looking forward to returning soon. A big thank you to the staff looking after us - (I think Luke, Charlie and Jack??? Sorry if I’ve got the names wrong!). Definitely recommend.
LTHoldsworth
We went for dinner last night. Lovely décor and facilities. Varied and interesting menu choice for both food and wine, beautifully cooked and presented, and plenty of friendly attentive waiting staff. We had a great evening and highly recommend it. Do book and go and try it.
simonjaned
Great, friendly service on a busy evening. Lovely views of the mist descending over the hills. We enjoyed our food - dessert was the best, we had the selection of mini desserts. Tip: Go before your booking time to allow time to park - they're changing parking rules soon. We got a space quickly but it was busy.
akW2680IJ
Enjoyed excellent food in a lovely setting with great service. The views across the valley are spectacular with a lovely terrace if the weather is warm. Beautifully prepared and presented food with plenty of veggie options.
C8516WVandys
We dined with you last Saturday, very impressed with everything you had to offer, food, ambiance, staff, all amazing.
220APC
We called in on chance and was pleasantly surprised by how well we were treated from start to finish. They found us a table for 6 people, which surprised me, as we didn’t book. This place is beautiful and charming without being pretentious, the decor and furnishings all fit with the setting. The staff were friendly and attentive and the menu drinks and quality of food were absolutely stunning. I would highly recommend and, will be returning again very soon. Thanks Maynard, we had a lovely time.
Chinley12345
Had a lovely meal with my family, all the food was incredible! The staff were so helpful and everyone was very happy and friendly. Will definitely be back again!!!

We had dinner for a birthday celebration at the Maynard. The food was excellent. We had the festive menu and everyone enjoyed their meals. I had turkey for my main course which was delicious. The portions were so big I could not finish it all....All of the staff, both in the restaurant and the bar where we had drinks, were friendly and helpful. More
Essex_O
Our first visit to the Maynard in several years and we were really impressed with the refurbishment The staff were lovely, very welcoming and attentive. I have to give a special mention to Travis who looked after us so well, nothing was too much trouble for him. The food was delicious, especially the scallop starter which is amazing! I had the monkfish curry for my main which I would definitely order again. The four of us had a really wonderful evening and look forward to retuning soon.

Good food served by cheerful friendly and well trained staff . Varied menu which should have something for everyone. Busy . Need to book
DaveCarol W
Visited for afternoon tea on Valentines Day. The classic afternoon tea was done to perfection (as they say)! The balance of the different items was just right. Sandwiches and scones may be commonplace things but these were of the highest professional standard - just right and absolutely delicious! Cakes and desert elements excellent too. Staff welcoming, friendly, attentive and a pleasure to meet! I'm not one to give credit where it is not due, or for simply delivering what was paid for! But The Maynard really does deserve 5 out of 5! If I didn't live so close I'd be checking in for a short break overnight stay! Will visit again...
Steve W
Tucked into an absolutely delicious full English breakfast this morning. The food was cooked beautifully with first class ingredients. From the minute we walked through the door we were made to feel so welcome, everyone was absolutely charming......hospitality at it's very best! As we had a dog with us we sat in the bar which was beautifully decorated and so relaxed and cosy we could have stopped there all day. Our dog gives it the thumbs up too as she was totally chilled and got lot lots of fuss. A total gem.....can't wait to go again!
Joan W
Could not recommend The Maynard enough. The location is outstanding, the rooms are spacious and beautifully furnished. The restaurant serves amazing food but above all the staff who work there are exceptional. To the point where it would be unfair to single out one single employee as they were all so helpful and warm and friendly. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay thanks to everyone who made us feel special
Indie1993
We booked afternoon tea for my mothers birthday. The food was lovely. We also ordered a birthday cake which the chef made and it was delicious. You get an individual cake tier which was a nice touch. The staff were very attentive. We had a lovely time and would highly recommend The Maynard. Please note you do need to book afternoon tea in advance
Naomi N
The Maynard is a real culinary jewel, in our opinion. It was in walking distance of our airbnb, so a no brainer for our first night, and looked good on tripadvisor etc ... but it was SERIOUSLY good! We all really loved all our courses, which, tbh, is unusual...scallops, pheasant, steak, brownies... all fab, but the absolute standout was the venison ravioli! .. and of course the gourmand dessert selection - which saves you from having to make a difficult decision ... and also ... you didn't really have a full dessert at all!! ;-) . But must also mention the wonderful service - so friendly and welcoming and Jess was a star! Hopefully we will be back to this area and won't hesitate to return. Many thanks.
Badgersoutandabout
A beautiful building located just a stones throw away from the historic Padley Gorge and Chapel. The food was immaculately presented and the flavours were devine. The scallops to start were very fresh and cooked to perfection, as was the sea bass main. The team were very efficient and friendly, special thanks to Millie & Chris for looking after us so well. We will most definitely be back, hopefully to stay this time! More
eleanorgi
Lovely hotel, lovely staff. Rooms were very pleasant, and very quiet. Was a delight to stay here. Both dinner and breakfast were delicious, will definetly be staying here again in the future! 100% recommend!
Fatmunchkin
It is difficult to put into words our thanks for all that you (Soraya) and your wonderful team have done to make our daughter and her new husband's wedding such a fabulous day. It seemed as though every single member of the hotel staff had one single aim and that was to make it a day we would never forget. You should be really proud of them all (and that includes all of the people in the kitchen too!!). As for you, we couldn't have asked for a better person to steer us through the process from start to finish. Just saying "thank you" doesn't seem enough for all that you have done but those thanks are truly heartfelt. We unreservedly recommend The Maynard as a fantastic wedding venue More
peteroX7919XS
Stayed here while on a hillwalking course locally. Very friendly and helpful staff. The food was delicious and the décor was great. Very comfortable bed. Felt thoroughly pampered. Would definitely use again.
debbielG9228RE
I shot a wedding here on Good Friday. Great location, Very well presented rooms and the food was beautifully prepared. Soraya and the team go above and beyond for any wedding, and I'll be seeing them again in June for my second wedding day this season at The Maynard. Great Team, great location and on the door step to Padley Gorge and the the Peaks.

Words fail me to describe just how good Rob and his entire team were for this amazing day/weekend! With all rooms booked for guests from Friday to Sunday and 128 people for a full sit down reception of the very highest quality. ALL the staff were absolutely brilliant at all times - and everything was done with a smile. All the food and service were fantastic! If you want The Best Wedding - just book the Maynard!!
guy b
We stayed from Fri-Sun for my best friends wedding and cant fault the Maynard. From a delicious private dinner on the Friday, being up & ready for our 6am start on the wedding day and lasting us through until a 3am finish (sorry about that!), as well as hosting the sunday event the staff were nothing but polite, conscientious and there to answer our every request. The actual wedding day was perfect, the room looked incredible and the food was outstanding. The team were non stop and made everything look seamless. Rooms also were lovely - comfortable beds, fluffy towels and our own coffee machines which were very much needed! Would 100% recommend anyone to host a wedding or any other kind of big event here.

Came with my Dad for lunch today. Really friendly staff! Chris, Ella and Kate were very helpful on our visit. We had the sardines, muscles, Brazilian cheese bread, gazpacho and the seabass. Absolutely incredible, will definitely recommend!

Great view of the hills from the restaurant and excellent food and service. Deserves the five stars. For 200 character minimum review requirement not much more to say beyond we had an enjoyable evening with good food and staff very helpful. More
