| Just been for Christmas dinner at the Holmebrook Tavern. What a huge mistake. Both the service and food were appalling. At £40 a head the menu sounded nice, but it has to be the worst meal out I've ever eaten. The soup looked like it came out of a tin, and the mushroom starter was basically mushrooms and tomato in mushroom soup. I am convinced the main (3 bird roast) was purchased from Iceland. It was bland and dreadful. The trifle was like a school dinner, and the Christmas pudding was like malt loaf. If that wasn't enough they had dreadful booming music playing in rotation. The pub sells itself by saying they don't sell microwaved food. Whilst that might be true, it appears they do sell cheap frozen food at highly inflated prices. Their chefs have allegedly cooked for the Royal Family and George W Bush amongst others. If the quality of food we experienced today was served to the likes of these people the chefs would've been arrested for treason. A truly awful experience.[Report for Removal] | Steve Lowe Chesterfield Derbyshire |

| This is now called the Holmebrook Tavern; a change of name and certainly a change of style. After many different landlords/lasses, it is now being run by Jane and Paul with Sue (Jane's mum) helping out now and again. We hadn't been in there for years as it had gotten itself something of a bad reputation; however, I can firmly stated that a new broom has swept through the place. The beer is well kept, with at least two guest "real ales" for the stouthearted, whilst the variation of other beers (including San Miguel draft) is really good to see. We went up there for Sunday dinner last weekend without knowing really what to expect. We were very pleasantly surprised. Real meat, vegetables well cooked, all of it piping hot and served on square plates. I was "podged" for hours!! So much did we enjoy our meal that we've booked in for a big family reunion on a Sunday coming up. No doubt we will all have a great time. .........and one other really important thing to us, a nice smile, a warm hearty welcome and...........they remember your names!!![Report for Removal] | Dave Owens Chesterfield Derbys |
