This countryside pub in Milford, Belper serves some of the best food I’ve eaten.

I know that’s a statement, but this derbyshire spot really is everything you could possibly want from a cosy pub. Plus, it’s only 25 mins from my house. I love finding a local spot that moves straight to the top of my list when people ask me for recommendations.

I have a full reel coming soon, but I wanted to share some piccies of the stunning food from their new autumn menu 🤤

What we ordered:
🍴Parmesan and truffle hash browns
🍴Ham hock fritters
🍴Roast potato & cheddar velouté
🍴8oz rump steak with peppercorn sauce
🍴The palfrey steak burger

You can really see the care and attention that goes into each dish. The flavours did every dish justice too. I could have easily eaten 6 portions of those hash browns, they were incredible. What I love about dining here, is that you can treat yourself to a full 3 courses, or you can pick and share smaller plates. We did a bit of both, but sadly didn’t save room for dessert 😭

For the quality of the food, this place is incredibly good value too. I highly recommend a visit if you haven’t been.

Fun fact - they used to be located in Derby city centre, down Bridlesmith Gate until they moved to their countryside location.

Bourbon, chocolate bitters, smoked cinnamon, this one's definitely built for slow sipping 🥃

We're calling it The Cigar and honestly, it might be the best thing on the bar menu right now.

Warm spice, a little smoke, that deep chocolate note that lingers...

it's basically autumn in a glass.

Come find out for yourself. 📍The Palfrey
