What Finley Reid likes about The Dragon:
Last night. we eat here a lot and eating is always great, but yesterday evening it was incredible! it could not simply be the best place to eat in derbyshire and the service was fantastic, especially considering how busy it was. by the way, I recommend the black one. nom nom : View all feedback. What Grace Collins doesn't like about The Dragon:
Bad experience. It was like eating in a transport cafe Rude and unruly people on next table , certainly put pay to a romantic diner for two !!!!!! Waiting on staff made it worse by repeatedly dragging chairs… More View all feedback.

Great place for a nice meal. Lovely to watch the canal boats go by. The atmosphere was great

The Dragon received mixed reviews, with some diners praising the outstanding food and quick, friendly service, while others were left disappointed by the poor quality of the food and service. The outdoor pods were praised for their comfort and beauty, but some guests had concerns about the cleanliness of provided blankets. Overall, the restaurant seems to offer a lovely atmosphere by the canal, but inconsistency in food quality and service may leave some customers feeling dissatisfied. Nonetheless, for those looking for a nice place to dine by the water, The Dragon is worth a visit.

Lovely food but the menu was very limited. No rice or pasta dishes and limited if you don’t want meat. Dessert was amazing but it was which I find extortionate.
