Twenty Ten Matlock - Derbyshire Dales

Twenty ten are doing nice tasty food now at reasonable prices …. Pie of the day, baked potatoes sandwiches etc., a good shout if you are in town at lunchtime.

Decent drinks at good prices, nice atmosphere. Wish we'd stayed here for food instead of heading across the road.....!

This is a fairly new pub (opened in 2010?? set amongst shops in the centre of Matlock, just a few minutes walk from the railway station. And despite the name, I think we can safely class this place as a pub internally it has a good pubby atmosphere that is often absent from shop conversions, with a raised section at the far end which incorporates a pool table and dartboard. They host live music too, some evenings. On the bar, there's a great range of ales mainly from smaller local breweries. The food offering is simple and inexpensive, featuring pies, burgers, sandwiches and other delights. It's not the sort of place you would come for that special meal but what they do is very well prepared and prices are probably the cheapest in town.

Have been coming to this bar for the past few years whenever we pop up to Matlock. We come up about six times a year. Don't know what's happened since last year but food presentation was terrible. My wife ordered a Tuna Red Onion on Brown. It used to come on lovely thick bread or Cobs accompanied with Torella Chips Salad. Today it was served as just a thinly cut floppy sandwich. No garnish or Torella Chips. I ordered Curry of the day. Asked for half Chips half rice. Was told I couldn't have this. The Rice was served still in the shape of the Microwave bag it had obviously just been shared from. Very poor. Been coming here for years but won't be returning.

Except pie meal deal, chicken and mushroom pie, gorgeous chips and garden peas, with drink. Delicious tasking and the surrounding environment lovely, as were the waiters.
