Discovered this place in lockdown, outdoor seating in the sun was fun. Haven't had chance to come back until yesterday. Back for more again today. The beers are amazing, a pint of odessy is perfect after a breezy hike. Bratwurst and curry sauce the perfect accompaniment - best curry/chutney I've ever tasted. Very cool venue, amazingly staff, very relaxed. Look forward to eating a full meal soon.
The beer is outstanding and the service and staff were super friendly. I found the bar area very cool with a great relaxed atmosphere. I also tried an interesting craft brewed with the additional juniper berries. It was outstanding đź‘Ť. My son and his friend also had a small plate of food which they absolutely loved....my son is a foodie. I would definitely go back. Loved the place.
Sunday roast sharer! Absolutely amazing! Will definitely be back! Great beer choice and great prices. Such a warm and friendly atmosphere! Need to get this place on the walkers map! Dog friendly too!
A small taproom with a decent sized garden attached to a small brewery, what’s not to like?
The 4 cask beers and several draft beers, all brewed on the premises, were superb. The recently revamped food offering was equally superb. We received a warm welcome, great service and had a very enjoyable evening. We look forward to visiting again.
I’ve been a few times over the last year, it’s a beautifully rustic local brewery & bar, great range of ales and wine too for the other half. Food was fantastic too!
This brewery outlet and restaurant has a pleasant green setting in Old Glossop with outdoor and indoor seating, helpful staff and imaginative options on the menu, including vegan and veggie ones - a lot of the options are light bites rather than full meals, and of course there are the various house beers.
The pictured jerk chicken dish really was divine and as you can see also nicely presented. I liked the chef's dedication and enthusiasm. It's worth going to try some dishes that are a bit different, even if you're not big on beer.
On that topic, I haven't the heart to deduct a star for it, but it is a shame that no alcohol-free beer is on offer, and secondly, I once ordered a home-brewed 'Hefeweizen' which is a German-style wheat beer cloudy with yeast in it, and it was served lukewarm. Being firstly German and secondly a refreshing summer drink this type of beer absolutely needs to be consumed properly chilled!
Really welcoming staff, great beer and nice vibes at the brewery. A lot of beer choices and great food, vegan options. Garden beer gets sun throughout the day. For sure I will be back soon. I really recommend trying the rosemary camembert.
Craft and cask brewery in the shadow of the dark Peaks, with three keg lines, five cask and bottles & cans on offer. Currently has a fantastic kitchen residency by Chef Dan, serving meaty small plates to die for. Dog friendly, inside and outside space. Very friendly!
Excellent beer brewed on premise and surprisingly good food
Called with my wife very late afternoon for a couple of pints before going for a meal. The tap was very popular with quite a few groups including families. The room is somewhat industrial but comfortable.
Having looked at the menu and the specials we decided to eat here and were very pleasantly surprised as the food was excellent.
Will definitly repeat the experience
Visited again over the last couple of weeks and the beer is as good as ever and the place is VERY busy. Menu continues to change and the specials sound great but getting a table is a challenge, perhaps we will try a different time
Late Friday afternoon and the tap is not busy. A couple of pints in the beer garden and a stroll home......by the time we left the place was getting busier but still quiet....
Looking forward to the expansion and a better chance of sampling the food
Building work complete and a very nice area created above the bar. They now have large outside area separated from the local area, currently with a large tent i believe is used for barbecue. Had a couple of pints on a glorious sunday afternoon, budy but not rammed, and of course the beer is excellent. Looking forward to eating here

What an absolute gem of a place. Bet you can't find it without Google. Went with my partner, great little pub, didn't try the food, but beers spot on.
Fantastic food as ever this exceptionally busy weekend. My slow-roast belly pork was absolutely on-point: fat properly rendered with perfect crackling, so rarely executed well, bravo! Everything just great, chips amazing, good non-meat options with equal commitment to deliciousness. A real gem.
Great brewery tap. Had the Bukhara cask IPA which was great and a bit different than your usual IPA, also a solid pale ale. Great burgers with proper chips and friendly staff. Highly recommended.
Great food and great beer. We called in after a rainy walk and had the most amazing warming haddock chowder. If only we weren’t driving we would have stayed for a few more!!
The perfect tonic after a long day's hike. Distant Hills is nondescript on the outside bar a few picnic tables out the front in the beer garden. We chose to sit inside which was a cushy, warm atmospheres. Being with teetotalling pescatarian, breweries can sometimes be a bit of a dangerous proposition, but along with the ample selection of beer, there were plenty of non-alcoholic options while the food venue was about half/half meat and no meat. Plenty of vegan options as well. The food was exceptional and perfectly portioned - cozy and familiar but with a gourmet touch. The beers were pretty decent with a good mix of styles - both cask and draught. The bartender was friendly without being overbearing and the whole joint ran very efficiently. All that and the prices were reasonable as well! Absolutely worth the walk from the main street.
Brilliant brewery, lovely tap room and excellent beers
A bit mad with people crowding/leaning over us as we ate at our table. Small bar with people sat on stools in front meant it was difficult to order.
Meals are reasonably priced. Side dishes are huge and, with the exception of the battered mushrooms, were amazing. Vegan burger was good. Beer is as local as it can get and was nice.
