The Boot inn

Amazing place. Great buzz in the bar area and the restaurant if peaceful with lots of space. Food is the best in the area, if you try dinner of the special dishes they will blow you away. I had pork belly and it was delicious. Last time I had Derbyshire lamb and it was the best lamb I’ve ever had. Fantastic his menu too - if my daughter will eat the mac and cheese, it’s good mac - and cheese and she loved it. Fairly pricey but it’s what you expect and the food is worth it. Unfortunately there is a 10% “Service Charge” and I absolutely do not agree with this policy. It’s a restaurant - you expect to be served. Had it removed from the bill and cost waitresses tips as I would normally tip great service but if you’re trying to extort money out of me via a daft charge, I’m not tipping. It’s a shame as it ruined a perfect meal. END SERVICE CHARGES PLEASE

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ There are few things more British than standing in a pub while convincing yourself you’re “just having something light”… and then ordering a fish the size of a small submarine. The fish and chips at The Boot is magnificent. The batter arrives wearing a deep golden tan and shatters with a crunch that deserves its own round of applause. Beneath it lies beautifully flaky fish that is moist, delicate and cooked to perfection. This is not fish and chips. This is fish and championships. The chips are exactly as the Almighty intended. Thick, gloriously fluffy in the middle, crisp on the outside, and piled into a metal cup with enough confidence to suggest they know they’re the stars of the supporting cast. The tartare sauce is superb, the minted mushy peas actually taste of peas (a surprisingly rare achievement), and every mouthful is an argument against counting calories. What I loved most is that nobody here feels the need to “reimagine” Britain’s favourite dish. No artisan gravel sprinkled over the plate. No edible smoke. No tiny portions arranged with tweezers. Just outstanding ingredients, cooked brilliantly and served generously. Then there are the staff. They have mastered that rare British art of making you feel as though you’ve been coming here every Sunday for the last twenty years, even if you’ve only just wandered in. Warm, welcoming, cheerful and effortlessly attentive without hovering over you every thirty seconds to ask whether “everything is alright” just as you’ve taken the largest mouthful imaginable. The Boot isn’t just serving great pub food. It’s preserving a national treasure, one perfectly battered fish at a time. I’ll definitely be back. Strictly for research purposes, of course. 🍺🐟

Best roast I’ve ever had out. The food was so nice and very considered. You could tell the chef really cares about the quality and attention to detail. Service was great, shout out to Poppy. Lovely atmosphere. You must visit!
