"Really delicious Lamb Henry (with chips instead of mash), but sadly I can not recommend this place if you have a food allergy or dietary requirements. They are trying with GF options etc. but did not inspire confidence in their knowledge/competence or communication with kitchen. I ordered the burger with out cheese, as I am allergic to milk. The waitress who took the order was helpful but wasn't sure if the bun contained milk, she said she would check. The burger then arrived with cheese on. Had this not been visible milk, Id have eaten it trusting that my dairy free request had reached the chief the chief knew what they were doing. Then when the second burger arrived, without cheese on, it also lacked the caramelised onions side salad. When I asked if I could please have the salad, onions and some mayo they were apologetic but also surprised mayonnaise doesn't contain milk. They also said the onions were fried in butter (a pitty as it's unnecessary, and means vegans can't eat them either) I really can't explain the lack of salad surely everyone knows salad doesn't contain milk?! After all this I felt like I was really going to annoy the staff if I double checked the bun milk possibility, so I just didn't eat the bun in case they had overlooked checking whether it had milk in. Disappointing, especially in comparison to the other two pubs in Chinley which have excelled in their helpful service ability to cater to dietary requirements (though only had sorbet as a dairy free/vegan desert option). On the up side the lamb Inn did have a vegan treacle tart ice cream available, despite having no vegan main course. Slightly bizar but great if you only want chips and desert I guess! That is assuming they are correct in saying its vegan I just don't feel very confident to trust their allergen listings after that experience. For anyone without dietary requirements its delicious food and at least one friendly waitress."

"We went in for Sunday lunch and decided to have the carvery. They'd only just opened so there were plenty of tables available and we were told to choose any available table before ordering. We ordered the carverys and beers and then took our tokens through to where the carvery was being served. A pleasant young man expertly carved the meat and we helped ourselves to the veg. We asked where we'd find cutlery, and we were told that it would be brought to our table. No cutlery was at our table when we returned with our plate of hot food, so I went in search of some. I found some near the coffee machine and we started eating our meal. At least 5 minutes later, a waitress brought us some cutlery, and she looked surprised that we'd started eating. She asked us to lift our plates off the table so she could put some place mats under them. In the process, she managed to knock my wife's half pint of bitter all over the table and my leg. Nice. She did apologise though, and replaced the spilled drink without question. Two ladies had come in after us and ordered the same carvery. They too sat down with their plates of hot food and no sign of cutlery. When the waitress was asked for some, she again asked them to lift their plates so she could put place mats down. My concern with this is that having people lift their plates while the waitress tries to slide place mats in between multiple drinks, seems like a needlessly risky process. And for what? The tables don't look like they need protecting, and we certainly weren't asking for them. And if they ARE necessary, why not place them on the table, WITH cutlery, immediately after the food has been ordered? In the end, it was a reasonably pleasant meal, marred by having to find our own cutlery, some clumsy table serving and an unnecessary requirement for place mats."
