After a long day in Matlock Bath we were hungry and looking for somewhere nice to sit down and relax. Polite member of staff welcoming you in and ensuring you are happy and settled before taking your drinks order. We chose the shepherds pie and thought there would be quite a lengthy wait, thankfully the food arrived hot and a good sized portion within approx 10 minutes. Lovely chips, peas fresh and tasty, shepherds pie nice and hot and with good quality mince. We were asked 3 times throughout our stay if everything was ok, which it was. Coffee was good and in the pot was enough for 2 cups if not 3 each. Premises are large and clean, I am quite particular about this and was very happy with how everything was presented. Staff were very friendly but not overly so, just right. Clean uniforms. We paid £30 for 4 x coffees (pots contained at least 6 cups), shepherds pie main meals, cake and custard for pud. Great value for 2 people we thought. I imagine they do a nice breakfast on a sunny Sunday morning whilst sitting outside. All in all a pleasant visit. Lots of other establishments along this strip but if you want that bit extra attention, cleanliness and good value whilst not being rushed I would recommend a visit......and no I don't work there...this is a genuine review.

Charlies - Charles of Matlock Bath We were encourage to look inside by a very polite member of staff. From entering to leaving I was impressed by the welcoming atmosphere and the friendly staff. I was particularly impressed by the way they treated my grandson in a 'grown-up' but child friendly manner. The menu was ideal for what we wanted. I had an excellent haddock and chips, my grandson had sauseage and chips. Attractively presented and very well cooked. The day was getting a bit autumnal and my meal was starting to feel a little cold by the time I had finished it. Perhaps the plate could have been hotter and this would have helped. I guess the day wasn't cold enough for the heating to be on and the door to be closed. Would I recommend the place? I already have! It is a class above some of the other establishments - not your Fast Food Chippy and not a pub diner. It made a welcome change. I am also thinking of recommending the B&B to some friends who will be travelling to the area next year. I saw into one of the rooms when I visited the toilet! It looked very good and I guess the breakfasts will be superb. http://charlesofmatlockbath.co.uk

We passed by Charles Restaurant on our holiday in the Peak District and have had a very good lunch and a very good service of the owner of the restaurant. We surely come back when we visit the district again next year.
