A "locals" rather than tourist pub...no food...apart from bar snacks. Reasonably priced booze. Colourful locals....very friendly actually ...however it can get interesting. Eavesdropping can become hilarious as the locals get louder as more beer is consumed. Nice Woodburner..... Good old fashioned boozer....
I love it

A great location if you're hiking from hope and a traditional British pub. However that's as good as it gets from me for this place. We booked to stay here on Air B&B for a night over the Easter weekend (2022) for the latter point. The booking confirmation came through and the payment was taken two nights before. We went to check in around 17:00 and they had sold our room to someone else! They had no rooms left and so we had to quickly book elsewhere. Luckily we managed to book somewhere in Buxton (20 min drive).
That's beyond unacceptable management and poor at best! Thankfully we were able to find somewhere over the busy Easter weekend. But it was sheer luck there was a room available elsewhere, there weren't any other places available close by. We live only an hour away, so whilst it would've been disappointing had we not found somewhere else to stay, it would've been okay. But imagine if you life 2-3 hours and booked to stay here! The local and surrounding area is popular for hikers and books up fast! That's a long drive home!
The pub looked old, tired, small and full of down and out local loud laddish lads. The reviews weren't great to begin with, and the hotel we managed to get in Buxton was great! So perhaps this was a blessing in disguise.
There's lots more classy pubs and far nicer places to stay in Hope or Castleton. I honestly wouldn't give this place your time, energy or money, let alone trust in your booking confirmation!
This place is one to avoid!

Great spot for a brew after walking around the lovely spots in Hope. They even sell Elvis juice...one of my favs! Good atmosphere and they're just starting to do food...I'm looking forward to coming back!

Fab atmosphere and great local people. Always be my local while I'm here. Now have a new menu that is amazing value for money.

So there isn't many pub choices in hope Village. But if your looking for a well priced quick drink then here you go. When we went it was pretty quiet but welcoming. Wine choices are your entry levels with no new Zealand so we had Vodka instead
Reasonably priced booze.
