The Fishpond

The Fishpond The Fishpond Matlock Bath represents an unrivalled free house experience for the people and visitors
(2269)

At the south end of this historic spa town and set into the limestone cliff-face this recently refurbished freehouse hasn't lost any of its traditional character or charm. Wood burners bookend the cavernous interior, adding to the congenial atmosphere and modern upmarket feel. There is a range of different seating areas, outside areas front & rear, justly popular with families and visitors to this

inland resort town. The constantly changing selection of ales and ciders has a strong focus on LocAle, and is complemented by an interesting menu featuring artisan bread from its own bakery. Regularly hosts live music and comedy plus special events & Weddings.
