Pizza and beer in a cool setting. We caught the RWC 2023 match here too. The food was tasty and reasonably priced. The beers were vast in selection, although I stuck to the green mountain which I think is better than Brewdog's Hazy Jane. I'll come back here when I visit Bakewell.

Great venue tucked away on the edge of Bakewell. Really good atmosphere plenty of seating but worth booking a table to be sure you can get in especially at the weekend. Great selection of beers and a fab pizza kitchen offering some really good food. You can also pick up some souvenirs and beers to take home from the shop.

Long way from home but came because our local in Kent serves Jaipur. Well worth a visit. Great choice of beers - tried 2 different beer flights - and a great pizza and garlic bread. What’s not to like? A little more signage for walkers would have been helpful and whilst the staff were fabulous they really needed someone to clear the empty glasses. Lovely afternoon and left with a selection to try at home.

What a fantastic venue, we had a great time. Beer was fab and you can buy in thirds too so you get to sample more 😍 Although it is in an industrial area they have done an amazing job and made it look fantastic. Lots of space to sit both inside and outside and is dog friendly too. Not very well sign posted for those that walk there, we ended up walking through the factory grounds but the staff in the yard were really helpful in directing is to the taproom. They serve pizzas that are gorgeous too, loved them. The only downer on the visit was the first girl that served us was not very welcoming and quite miserable.

Superb, a Mecca for the discerning beer drinker. Tucked away on an industrial estate North of, and only a fifteen minute walk from, the town of Bakewell. Great pizza too, what's not to love?

Definately worth a visit if you like to experience different flavours of keg and cask beers. The staff were very friendly and knowledgable, the ambience of the tap was just to my liking with lots of seating and good background music. The pizzas looked fantastic for a tenner however I didn't have one. I had a couple of fantastic beers...... on both days I visited.

We had Liam as our tour guide. At first I couldn't tell if he was leading the beer tasting tour or joining in, his love of beer was ample and his eyes told the secrets of a thousand pints. Learnt a lot about the brewing process and the flavour profiles of each beer. Liam taught me how to love, live and lust... Liam if you're reading this, call me. Drank a pint of the Green Mountain, Jaipur, Coal Train, Lucas and seven or so 1/3 pints. I was in no condition to remember the names of the rest of the beer i had at that point but I know for certain they were all a yellowish colour and tasted good. Walked past the pizza, smelt good, didn't try it though. People on the tour who had the pizza said the dough was made with their own beer. Very cool. Great restrooms. Urinal basins were large & very accommodating for a lad of my presitigious bladder size. Thanks.

Great place!! Brilliant section of beers, loads to try from. Offer flights, 3 x 1/3 pints, so you can try multiple. Pizzas were also very tasty after a good walk and a few beers. Plenty of seating and also an outdoor area. Can also purchase bottles/cans to take home. Does get busy during peak times, mid afternoon on the weekend.

Did the Thornbridge Experience recently. Really enjoyed it - both the talk / tour and the samples. The guide - Liam - was clearly very passionate about Thornbridge and brewing generally.

Currently in Madrid Spain at ‘Brew Wild’ and really enjoying your Lord Marples! Had it last night, and again tonight, leaving for Australia tomorrow… any chance of you getting this in at Dan Murphy’s in South Australia?

I have been to my fair share of brewery's. This is easily the best! I read the reviews before we went was impressed. Great pizza, great atmosphere, great beer. I am planning my next visit already. Well worth a trip. Plan for a few hours. You will not be sorry.

If you like a proper beer, this is the place to go. Great atmosphere, kool people, kool venue. I just wished I lived a bit closer. Will always be popping in if I'm in the area though.

We went here over Easter and enjoyed the Brewery Experience, which was good with some history of the company and then onto the Beer tasting, having 6 thirds of the different beers . We then had a lovely pint of stout in the Tap room and bought a cask in the Beer Shop. Lovely venue and a great pint

We visited the Thornbridge Brewery Tap Room on a family trip to Bakewell. We stopped off for a couple of pints before arriving at our accommodation. Everything I tried was very good. There is a big selection of beer, wine and spirits. Food is also served, which is mainly pizza and pasta. You can also buy the beers to takeaway. The place is spacious and well laid out. It is dog friendly, complete with a dog station, which is a real nice touch. There is also outside seating.

Lovely place to visit. Nice spacious and welcoming atmosphere. Great variety of beers in tap & a shop so you can take latest releases home with you. The pizzas they do are so tasty and worth trying while you e joy your beer or Gin. They sell local gin also so not just beer available.

Why has no-one ever told me about this place? We wandered up to the brewery expecting to find a typical small shop attached to a brewery, instead we found Beer Valhalla! Huge range of beers, a fantastic large area with loads of seating and space, excellent staff, dog friendly, does pizzas to order and a merch and beer shop. Already earmarked for an afternoon tasting sesh with pizzas on our next rip to Bakewell. P.S: Try the 5.8% Jaipur IPA - marvellous!

We spent 5 days in Derbyshire and came across this brewery. We had a really good experience, beers are good, my wife had a cider she loved it. Pizzas are also tasty, crispy and light. Will be back next time if we drive past Bakewell.
