Our runner-up position is hereby awarded to The Duke of York at Elton – an establishment which takes a very different approach to our third placed pub, offering a truly traditional Derbyshire drinking experience.
Here’s what some of our readers had to say about it:
Original village pub. No fancy frills and trappings and even has its own village idiot! Try a Sunday Lunch visit.
It is refreshing to go to a pub where you can just enjoy a quiet pint of cask ale, without being pushed from pillar to post by people serving pub grub. The Barley Mow (Kirk Ireton) is also what I would regard as a ‘traditional’ pub, but in my opinion is nudged into second by the friendly, warm atmosphere at The Duke of York.
