Delicious food & drinks in tastefully decorated & comfortable surroundings. We were served by friendly & knowledgable staff who are passionate about the family owned business. We had a wonderful meal last Friday night & I would highly recommend a visit. We were lucky to get a table, so I would recommend booking to avoid disappointment.

On arriving at our cottage just outside Tideswell after an arduous Bank Holiday drive from London, my wife and I dropped into The Merchant's Yard for dinner. This beautifully renovated historic builders' merchant is an elegant and spacious establishment with excellent access for my wife who is a wheelchair user. The culinary delights on offer, and the hospitable service are second to none. The fare is proper nosh; not pretentious or minimalist, with emphasis on flavour and real quality. My wife's 8oz Rib Eye steak was wonderfully tender; and because my wife is on a very restricted diet, a glorious gluten-free and dairy-free beef reduction was specially prepared for her. My fish and chips with pickled egg, curry gel, tartare sauce and mushy peas was an absolute triumph. And I can safely say that I have never enjoyed this classic dish as much anywhere else. The Merchant's Yard is clearly a class act. Plans are apparently afoot to also provide boutique hotel accommodation. Its two AA rosettes are very well deserved. We shall no doubt be returning shortly.
