The Peak - Castleton

We went on a busy Saturday night and they seemed to be struggling. Much more limited selection of vegan options than portrayed on the website and other reviews. Ordered a number of sides as didn’t fancy the one vegan main. Small portions, slightly cold and underwhelming. I know covid is impacting all restaurants but this wasn’t anything like we were expecting from the reviews.

Nice restaurant/hotel that provides excellent vegan food. The staff went out their way to help me find a vegan beer! excellent value for money! Updated from previous review on 2021-07-12

Based on some good reviews we went here for my wife's birthday. My wife chose a vegan filo pastry parcel and I chose a vegan falafel burger with hummus. The filo pastry was so tough my wife struggled to cut it open; the interior was excessively sweet and not worth the effort. The vegan falafel was tasteless and stodgy, so was the bun. Even the chips (the thin french fries variety) were like cardboard. We both left most of our meals and abandoned any idea of desert. The bar staff did not seem surprised we were unhappy and we were obviously not the first to say the burger was terrible. For comparison we went into the nearby Rose Cottage cafe for coffee and cake the food looked lovely and was *much* better value. Updated from previous review on 2019 02 18

Disappointing meal. Food drinks: Beware the homemade stew with large whole raw pickled onions in it. They will leave a wash of pickling vinegar at the bottom of your bowl. Not good. Would not recommend! Also if you run out of bread as described on the menu please inform before food it ordered. Service: 3 Location: 5 Hotel highlights: Great view

Our favourite pub in Castleton, great selection of drinks delicious food. Real log fire for a warm welcome after a long walk. Friendly helpful staff who are always welcoming. Nearby activities: Hill walking cycling nearby. Blue john mines are well worth a visit. Hotel highlights: Great view, Great value
