Food & Drink

You will find something to suit every appetite in South Derbyshire, from cosy tea rooms and traditional pubs to stylish gastro pubs and award-winning restaurants.

Locally grown ingredients are used widely across the area, helping to ensure quality and freshness from supplier to plate while keeping food miles to a minimum.

South Derbyshire offers plenty for food and drink lovers, from locally produced wines and spirits to fresh farm produce and artisan treats.

  • Local drinks – enjoy a tasting experience at one of the area’s microbreweries, discover a local gin distillery, or sample wines from nearby vineyards.
  • Fresh local produce – if you fancy a break from eating out, visit local markets, farms and farm shops for fruit and vegetables grown on site, along with meat reared in the surrounding countryside.
  • Artisan treats nearby – just beyond our borders, but still within the National Forest, you will find excellent ice-cream producers, a chocolatier, fresh honey and even bring-your-own-bottle milk straight from the cows.
