A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“Dropped in here today on the off chance with my wife and 2 kids. WOW what a find!! If you are walking the Rivelin Valley Trail as we were today then dropping in here is a must. Really nice environment Super friendly staff Gorgeous food/generous portions and reasonably priced. We will be back here soon to try something else off your awesome menu.”
“A beautiful country pub in the middle of a scenic valley. A friendly welcome awaits. The Monday open mic night is a brilliant way to spend an evening with chilled out and talented people.”
“I recently visited the Rivelin Pub and had a fantastic experience. The new landlord, Matt, has clearly made a great impression. From the moment we arrived, the service was warm, friendly, and attentive, making us feel very welcome. The food was excellent – freshly prepared, full of flavour, and beautifully presented. It’s clear that a lot of care goes into both the menu and the quality of the ingredients. Matt has done a brilliant job creating a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere, and it really shows. The pub feels inviting, well run, and a great place to meet friends or enjoy a meal. I’d definitely recommend a visit and will certainly be coming back again soon!”
“Lovely food infact amazing. When ever you can go out and its better than what you can cook. Lovely. Family visit. Will be going back.”
“Sunday lunch for family of 4... all adults. Food was fabulous all served on hot plates and piping hot food, something you don't always get. Their pies are are proper filling e.g Steak and ale, Steak and Stilton. Fully recommend a visit, whether your calling in for food or stopping off after a walk in the area.”
“Just returned from a family meal the Rivelin. We had fish & chips, roast pork, roast beef, chicken burgers & a kids fish fingers then cheesecake, crumble & kids ice cream, we all agreed the food was great. Very reasonably priced. The staff were very friendly & polite. Nice to see Matt back in S6 were he belongs.”
“Visited the Rivelin tonight for the first time under new management and was very impressed. The food was lovely as too was the atmosphere. Friendly staff and a guitar and singing duet adding to the atmosphere. The evening menu isn't extensive but the quality of the food and portion sizes are good. Definitely a recommend.”
“Called in today after seeing some recommendations. It didn't disappoint - great service and I had a Posh Fish Finger sandwich and hubby had a Cheeseburger. Both really nice and the chips were lovely. Busy with people just drinking but also food orders. Great setting to see some views! Highly recommend.”
