In the heart of the beautiful and historic town of Matlock you’ll find a hidden gem of a restaurant tucked away almost out of sight. The beautiful and modern Stone's restaurant has a fantastic reputation across the surrounding area and has earned two coveted AA rosettes. Head chef Kevin Stone, his partner Jade Himsworth and sister Katie Temple are avid fans of local produce and use skill and finesse to present beautifully executed modern British cuisine.

The philosophy is to provide a fantastic dining experience in a relaxed setting and the friendly and attentive staff make sure this is delivered. With a warm palette of creams, brown and red, abstract canvasses and the use of upholstered church pews a unique environment has been created, perfect for romantic evenings, family or business meals.

Outside there is a beautiful terrace area overlooking the river, perfect for relaxing and unwinding with a glass of wine from Stone's extensive specialist wine menu. With quality cuisine, ideal surroundings, views and professional and attentive staff on hand Stone's is an excellent venue that promises to delight.

A superb evening set menu, express lunch menu for those who have limited time, and a beautiful 5 course tasting menu for only £24 makes Stone's a surprisingly accessible venue for those who enjoy fine cuisine.

The restaurant is small and its reputation is spreading rapidly so online advance booking is advised to secure a table.
