“Didn’t stay but ate for my birthday lunch. Made to feel very welcome and loved every minute. Great service from Otto. Thanks so much to the team for making me feel special! The food was sublime and the star of the show was the cod main course with saffron sauce. Otto added he brought the saffron from Morocco himself which was a lovely touch. Will be back and will recommend. Francesca x”

We thoroughly enjoyed our recent weekend stay, for our special occasion. The staff were extremely welcoming, friendly, attentive and helpful. Our luxurious room was beautifully decorated and the bed very comfortable. All of our meals were delicious, and we were very impressed with the extensive wine list. Our whole experience was delightful, no doubt due to the great attention to detail that everyone has here. The fabulous grounds and gardens add to the serenity of this beautiful place. We are so glad that we chose Fischers and hope to return..... This is a truly special place ❤️

Visited Fischer's at Baslow Hall for an early valentine's dinner with my partner. Neil and the serving staff were great and very friendly. The service never felt rushed and we had a drink in the bar area before being shown to our table. My partner and I have eaten at a fair few fine dining/Michelin restaurants over the years but this was the first time we've booked the Kitchen Bench experience. Ant and his kitchen staff were all very professional and relaxed and were happy to chat, have a laugh and answer any questions we had. They explained the dishes and the processes behind them and it was interesting to see the dishes being assembled and 'coming to live' on the pass. We enjoyed a 9 course tasting menu with some of the highlights being the fish course (especially the Bouillabaisse which it was served with), the Mushroom Pithivier and Egg Custard Tart! We were both very pleased with the whole experience and would thoroughly recommend it. Thanks for a great evening!

We have eaten here a few times now and class it as a treat for a special occasion. We ate here recently and the food was very good as usual. However, I was shocked at the increase in price. The website which I have just checked again advertises 2 courses from £35 but this is no longer the case. It's more like £50 as you now pay for separate courses. So the website needs to be updated asap. We also used to get appetizers served to us before we went into the dining room and also between courses but sadly not any more. Again, really enjoyed what we had but only fo a special occasion.

Fischer’s is an exceptional restaurant. Every course was fantastic. It’s the second time we’ve been and the food was just as good this time round. We eat at a lot of fine dining restaurants and this is up there with the best food we’ve had.

“Stopping by with no reservations with a pram I popped in to make sure we could get a table and the staff were welcoming and accommodating allowing us to choose the table right for us, we chose the snug as to not disturb other customers. We were not forgotten about with orders taken, drinks arrived and food ordered taken and brought out within a short time. The food itself was tasty and a good portion size at a reasonable price. Parking is free outside but is limited but we had no problem arriving at 6pm”

“Really lovely tea rooms, the staff were very friendly and welcoming. Dog friendly and our border collie soon settled down for a nap in the conservatory where we ate our lunch. We both had the Derbyshire Oatcake with butchers sausage and onion marmalade. There were two thick and delicious sausages and plenty of marmalade. The dressed salad was lovely too and the homemade coleslaw really nice. We'd walked to Ashford in the Water from Bakewell and happened upon the tearooms by chance. Would recommend.”

“We stayed a couple of nights and ate a meal both evenings. What a treat! The rooms were first class. Extremely comfortable, spacious with White Company toiletries. From the moment we walked through the door the service was exemplary. We felt welcome and there was no delay at check-in. The evening meals were delicious and there was a good selection on the menu. A very relaxing atmosphere. A top class pub and hotel well deserving of our 5* rating. We can’t wait to return!”
