The Red Lion At Kniveton, Main Street, Kniveton, Ashbourne DE6 1JH, UK
Phone: 01335 345554
“Gorgeous food and a great selection of real ales and ciders. I'm really fussy when it comes to eating out and I think that may possibly have been the nicest pub lunch I've ever had! Perfectly cooked and seasoned chips; a beef and ale pie that was freshly cooked and full of tender meat (not a piece of fat or gristle to be found!) and rich gravy with perfect short crust pastry; rich and meaty extra gravy, and a selection of tasty vegetables. Yum! Would've tried the puddings but I filled up completely on just the main - perfect portion size! Friendly staff and good character. Toilets were clean and pleasant and even had emergency stash in the ladies. Would recommend and will bear in mind if we're passing again.”

“The food was excellent, (an amazing range of options for such a small operation) and prepared with real care. Excellent provision for gluten-free (cross-contamination caution). Staff and service was warm and accommodating. A wall display of superb photographs shows the stunning local scenery at its best (and are for sale). We were able to reserve tables. If we lived nearer we'd be regulars.”

Phone: 07738 165277
“Lovely little cafe. I like that you have to wonder through the park to find this place. The cafe building itself is quite small but there is plenty of outdoor seating, most of which is undercover either under a gazebo or an umbrella. We only had coffee's and a scone but both were great and the service was fast. The staff are very welcoming and dogs are welcome too. A hidden gem.”

“Absolutely loved bringing my step daughter here we had so much fun! We both picked out an ornament to paint and had the most beautiful cake and tea! Would highly recommend. The only thing I would say is it's super quiet and everyone who was in there with us said the same thing, it needs a radio or something for a little background noise as it feels slightly awkward. Other than that it's fantastic and hope to be back soon!!!”

The food is excellent and the atmosphere is a great way to relax, the views are great as well. Thankyou to all for making me feel so welcome. I'm coming at least once a week now.”

“Nice small bakery/deli close to the centre of Ashbourne. We enjoyed the baked goods so much that we went twice! The first time we had a cappuccino cake and a rum truffle. The second time we had a rocky road and viennese whirl. The shop has a nice selection of products and the service was good the both times we went. We are looking forward to going again when we are next in Ashbourne.”
