Stopped here with my partner and 8 month old boy after taking the nature trail walk at Rivelin Valley.
I loved that there was a split between the pub and eating area as this allowed people to eat in peace and other locals to then watch the football and drink beer in peace, this was a great touch.
The decor of the restaurant goes expertly well with the surroundings, it gives off a traditional country pub feel without being old fashioned, something that is extremely hard to do. The playlist was brilliant, something that often goes unnoticed and something i've never picked up on at a pub before but the music was pleasant.
It was a blustery afternoon so it was great to retreat to the warmth of the Hollybush with it's coal fire and great cider.
The food was fantastic; opting for the gourmet burger, homemade chips and onion rings. There wasn't much of a wait time and the quality was great. You could tell it was all homemade and freshly prepared.
The staff are fantastic and i'll definitely be returning here in the near future.
Thanks for making us feel welcome!
Superb now the new owners have turned it around. Great food and beer and clean comfortable surroundings.
Just had a great meal. Nice and friendly staff if we didn't live in Brisbane Australia we would be back
Lovely food and great value for money. Very friendly.

Absolutely spiffing old man. I went there once, err but I was very very drunk.
one of my fav places in my younger days
Stumbled across this pub while in the area, and what a little hidden gem! Dog friendly (massive tick), a warm welcome from the staff upon entry and excellent service. The food is menu is enough to please most and very fairly priced! Good quality meals as well. Definitely recommended to anyone wanting a cosy welcoming place for a drink and a bite to eat
No food currently. Good music. Very quiet. New people in . Hopefully it gets busier. Choice of ales. Friendly.

We went here just before our walk. We was made really welcome. Relaxed atmosphere and the food was great with freshly made beer batter.
This place is amazing, proper pub food and not a single frozen chip to be seen. All food is homemade, and tastesβ just like mother used to make β. A friendly warm welcome awaits and prices that still leaves you with enough to get the bus home.
Not been in for quite some time and a after a walk down Rivelin called in for a couple...
The bloke behind the bar was a right laugh....

Really nice pub. clean, Welcoming and Friendly. The man working there was really talkative and friendly. Even gave our dogs some mini chedders. Nice environment. Nice drinks. Dog friendly. Not over priced. I will definitely be going again π
Absolutely lovely. Great home made Sunday Lunch with beautifully made Yorkshire Puddings. Great choice of desert. All at a very nice price. Lovely friendly staff. Very nice decor in beautiful surroundings. All in all a very enjoyable afternoon.
Lovely pub in rivelin. Decent pint of stones but could do with a proper cider on instead of strongbow what has never seen an apple
Excellent will visit again
Brilliant!!!!!! Food and service was excellent Theyβre a traditional pub with quality food. They were 12 of us and the all meals came out piping hot. We went after having a walk round Rivelin
Itβs well worth calling in ππ»( I am know way connected to the holly bush π) and not a big reviewer but though it was worth 5mins.as it was really Good π
Great little treasure in Rivelin, good beer and great friendly atmosphere π π
Lovely pub. They must have had a busy Saturday as not much beer left. But will be back.
Proper locals' pub and I don't mean that in a bad way. Good beer, cheerful service and it was lively when we popped in Sunday afternoon.
Very cheap too. Almost like pubs used to be!
Had a tasty sunday carvery, which was good value for money. Not busy at all either, so easy to get food served quickly :) They had two ales on draft (Farmers Blonde and Spitfire), both of which are good I would say, as well as more mainstream beers.
Stopped for a quick drink halfway through our walk and was a great choice. Friendly service, nice outside seating area and the food smelled amazing

A few of us had some drinks to commemorate the one year passing of my father Fred Baker, ( who lived on Hollins Lane & always went for a meal on Tuesday dinnertimes ), on July 8th, 2021, it was a good afternoon & made better by the lovely, friendly staff. Again on the 31st of July, 2021, the day of his funeral a year before. Me & a friend made our respects known & had a few drinks & a truly decent meal, very good & simple food. I fully recommend this Pub !!!, their are lots of happy memories & indeed had Fred's Wake their on July 8th, 2020 & my Mothers in 2005, 40 Years of good tidings with my father & other's !! A place to try !! Thankyou to those who new him & my Mother, they are always sadly missed by me & all !!.
