Had a meal in this pub - my husband ordered steak and ale pie - the pie was off not just a bit off but furry!!! I called the staff member over who took it way she then returned and thanked us for calling this to their attention!! No mention of replacement or refund!!

I will vote with my feet and avoid this establishment in the future.

This building is on 2 floors which was slightly confusing as I approached from the main road side & found ourselves in the top floor carvery. Downstairs which is street level on the other side & opposite the Opera House is the bar area. Multi roomed with a variety of seating options its interesting & comfortable. Thwaite's - Wainwright, Marston's - EPA, Abbot Ale & Sharp's - Doom Bar on my visit. Staff were friendly & efficient - I didn't have to wait more than about a minute despite it being very busy. I've read the previous bad reviews about this place, but on my visit it was excellent - recommended.

We visited today after popping into Buxton to see the festival. Sampled the carvery. 1st time visitors here so can't speak for the previous management but don't have a single bad thing to say.

This place has a calm relaxing atmosphere, friendly staff, in fact more than friendly on the carvery.... I can safely say I have never been to a carvery where the staff serving the meats and restocking the veg have been so eager to help. They had welcoming smiles and encouraged our party to try everything and even have extra yorkshire puddings :) Two very nice guys!

The food was delicious, yorkshire puddings and roasties were cripsy, gravy was nice and thick, exactly how a Sunday dinner should be! This will certainly become a stop off point when we travel to the peak district.

Thank you for making our day out ...that little bit more special.

Glad I never heard your predecessor refer to us G&S folk as "sad f***s who have no life". Believe me, we have lives and most of our men are keen real ale drinkers. You have a captive clientele with the Opera House right opposite. Must admit we do eat in your pub but drink elsewhere except on performance days. Will be visiting the Old Clubhouse again in early August. Incidentally the photo on this page was taken by me in 2005. Good luck!
