The Old Nags Head, Edale

This pub rests on it's laurels and location. I ate there last year at the end of a walk and had a pint there recently. The real ales are OK and reasonably served. The food still looks fairly bog standard pub. Atmosphere is not fantanstic. We went recently towards the end of the afternoon in April so it was getting a bit cold outside depite the longer day. It would have been nice to have the fire on but, obviously trying to save a bit of money, it was not on and so it was a bit nippy inside. I think I'll remember to goto The Ramblers again next time. The Old Nags Head needs a kick up the backside. It could do so much better.

Peels Arms, Padfield

Step inside and you will find both locals and those from further afield and a cheery and welcoming atmosphere.

Since the change of landlord and lady two years ago, this pub is now enjoying a considerable reputation for both well served real ale and food. This made a welcome change to all the locals whom had been enduring a cold atmosphere created by the previous couple whom had little idea how to run a pub.

The car park, which used to be full of grotty old Novas, now features the occasional Bentley!

At the time of writing this review The Peels is undergoing a sensitive and overdue refurbishment (new carpets and fittings). The writer has been assured that the essential character will be maintained. Reopening in early October.

Don't miss Wedenesday Quiz night and make sure you know everything about Elvis Presley to win (listen to the locals graon!).
