Stopped for a welcome pint after a long walk in beautiful early autumn weather. Lots of bikes outside and inside bikers queuing for cups of tea in one room, and families eating in the other room. This is not a particulrly attractive pub to drink in, but outside there are stunning views. Robinson's Old Stockport Bitter (the 'ordinary bitter'), was in good condition. Also on tap were two Robinson's seasonal beers. Note, the Buxton area appears to be a largely mild-free zone.

Having read the "What kind of reviews are allowed?" section I will keep this to the point so hopefully it won't get deleted and others can read it. I and a few mates who are in a Mondeo online forum (MEG) planned a visit here on one of our monthly meets. We pulled up onto the car park and were having a bit of a chat before going in and the landlady came out and confronted us. She demanded to know whether we were going into the pub and I said yes. I was eating a pie for my breakfast and she said I couldn't eat it in her car park as she sold food in the pub so I should leave the car park. I obliged by moving off the car park to finish my breakfast, she stood there watching me and then ranted that we must all go and we did. I must add that I am 41 years old and my wife and two kids were in the car. As we never actually got in the pub I cannot comment as to it's quality. The road leading to it and past it is very good. I suggest you stay on the road and find a more welcoming pub elsewhere.

Good pub with a great view and great road to it on a bike for sure. Watch out for "The Feds" though! When you see a "Slow" sign, take heed too because unlike most roads, this means it!!!!
Pub sells nice coffee and has helicopter trips outside in the summer months.
