Nice little cafe / bar which is well described below. I found the service to be very friendly and the beer choice as good as anywhere else in Buxton with 4 ales on. Jaipur, Wincle Bengal Buttress and one each from Peak Ales and Storm Brewing. Worth calling in.

Decided to give the place another try when in Buxton on Saturday evening. Still has four hand pulls at the bar but this time offering Thornbridge Jaipur, Wincle Waller, Beartown LBS and Brewsmith Pale - a much improved selection compared to my previous visit. The Beartown LBS was £3.50 a pint.
The place was reasonably busy on Saturday at around 8:30pm and some of the customers were dining but drinkers were just as welcome. It had a nice relaxed atmosphere.

Four hand pulls at the bar. At the time of my visit these were dispensing neck Lifter (Jennings), Saddle Tank (Marstons), Jaipur (Thornbridge) and Sir Philip (Wincle). A half of the Sir Philip set me back £1.80 or so, and was an OK if unremarkable bitter.
The place seems to be quite food focussed, there are food menus on the table and a specials board. The menu is of the premium gastro fancy end of the market rather than basic pub grub.
The place is smart and service was friendly. There was a real fire going in the front half of the building. The second half has the bar, which is initially hidden from view when entering. The toilets are down a corridor past this area, by this point you begin to wonder if the building ever ends or just goes on forever; it is definitely bigger than it looks from the outside!
I can't really fault the place and to have four real ales on in somewhere that appears to be food orientated isn't bad. But for me I am not sure there is much to rush back, but was glad to have been and tried it.
