Fischer's Baslow Hall - Bakewell

I booked a solo dining experience on the kitchen bench at the end of August. This was my first foray into fine dining and I was not disappointed.

From the moment I was greeted at the door, I was made to feel incredibly welcome.

The taster menu and whole kitchen bench experience was just wonderful. It was more relaxed than I was expecting which suited me perfectly!

The food was exceptional - I was presented with a wide range of dishes which gave me the opportunity to try things that I hadn't before and I enjoyed every moment.

Whilst the food itself was wonderful, it was the restaurant and kitchen staff that really took my visit to another level. Everyone was very warm and friendly, not to mention attentive. I was looked after incredibly well, especially by John's team in the kitchen.

Thank you for such a fantastic experience and I definitely plan to return.

We were at this restaurant a month ago. The place is very nice and welcoming, and the waiters are friendly. However, the food definitely leaves a lot to be desired for the price. Not to mention that they charge us £6 per bottle for tap water, even though they would take it away and put in a new one if it wasn't finished. I'm sorry, but I don't think we'll be back.

Wow what a wonderful hotel!! We had a 2nts stay at Fischer's. Everything about our stay was 5* from our arrival welcome to our departure. Our room Number 4 Garden Room was absolutely amazing so spacious and comfortable. Breakfast was superb. Our dinner in the restaurant absolutely faultless. What makes this hotel stand out are all the staff. They are so friendly, helpful and totally professional. Thank you Fischer's for providing us with an amazing stay. We cannot wait to return!!

This hotel is absolutely beautiful, the atmosphere is so relaxed and peaceful. The hall is a gem of a example of a country gentlemans residence tastful, elegant and so well maintained. Our room was a garden room which was bright and cheerful the bathroom was simple but well thought out. The gardens are wonderful, complete with a functioning kitchen garden. The food is delicious so many well defined flavours thoughtfully put together and perfectly cooked. Breakfast was to the same standard. The staff however take the hotel to an even higher level. Thoughtful, cheerful, professional while being friendly is an art and they've mastered the it. It was our 40th wedding anniversary and they even gave us a card sighned by the staff. There are many 4 star hotels out there but this one is rather special.

We had an unforgettable dining experience at Fischer’s Baslow Hall to celebrate a birthday, and everything—from the service to the food—was exceptional. The team went above and beyond to make the occasion special, with the waitstaff offering warm, attentive, and genuinely thoughtful service that added a personal touch to the celebration.

The food was absolutely incredible—each course beautifully presented and bursting with flavor, clearly crafted with skill and care. Every dish told its own story, and the attention to seasonal ingredients and balance made the meal feel both luxurious and grounded in nature.

The setting itself, elegant and tranquil, complemented the whole experience perfectly. It’s clear why Fischer’s holds its Michelin Plate status—it’s a place where fine dining meets heartfelt hospitality. We’ll absolutely be returning and recommending it to anyone looking for a truly memorable culinary experience.

We booked Fischer's for lunch to celebrate my sister's birthday. We have stayed and eaten here on many occasions, and were not disappointed on Sunday. The staff are all extremely friendly, helpful and professional. The surroundings are beautiful. We arrived early for drinks on the terrace, and then enjoyed a delicious Sunday lunch in the lovely restaurant. Afterward we had a walk around the gardens, which was delightful. We all enjoyed the experience and had a wonderful afternoon. I can feel a mini-break coming on for the near future! Hope to see you again soon. Thank you to all the staff. xx

I booked lunch at Fischer’s to celebrate my surprise proposal to my partner which I decided to do just before lunch nearby at Bamford Edge. Fischer’s were incredibly helpful and made the day extra special with little added touches. When we arrived, they were waiting for us with two glasses of champagne, then when we got to the table, the waiter gave us a Baslow Hall postcard which had been signed by the staff to commemorate the day. The food and the service were both exceptional and we had a superb lunch to celebrate our engagement which was perfect. Finally, they gave us a complimentary slice of carrot cake to finish the meal off - this was also very tasty! Thank you to all of the team at Fischer’s who went above and beyond to make this special day even more memorable. We will be back! Would highly recommend!

We were so looking forward to our first visit to Fischers having heard so much about it. |We went for Sunday lunch and have to say the service was excellent. Unfortunately the food didn’t match the service. Sadly Fischers seems to be trading on its previous Michelin starred reputation.|Our main courses were good and a generous portion once the various vegetables were added, well cooked and presented.|The salmon starter was overall too sweet and all one texture.|A second course of jersey royals and asparagus promised much but failed to deliver. |We are used to fine dining prices but one small sliced jersey royal and half a very small asparagus spear with a tablespoon of seaweed veloute plus a sprinkling of pine nuts was ridiculously priced at £18. Three bites and it was gone, Indeed it was more expensive than the other two courses on offer which contained either meat or fish. |Puddings were tiny.|I will happily pay for outstanding food but this wasn’t. Shades of Emporer’s new clothes I’m sad to say. There’s nothing worse than feeling you’ve been taken for a fool. |I doubt very much that we will visit again despite the staggeringly beautiful surroundings.
