A Setting Steeped in Style and Comfort
Located just a short walk from Buxton’s town centre, Opera House and Pavilion Gardens, the Lee Wood Hotel combines classic elegance with modern comfort. As Buxton’s only four-star hotel, it’s a popular destination for both leisure and business travellers looking for quality hospitality in a picturesque setting.
The Restaurant at the Best Western Plus Lee Wood Hotel mirrors this atmosphere, stylish and relaxed – giving diners a space to unwind while enjoying quality cuisine.
Where Culinary Creativity Meets Local Charm
Tucked within tranquil private gardens and with panoramic views across the spa town of Buxton, The Restaurant has earned a reputation as one of Derbyshire’s hidden culinary gems. Renowned for its imaginative use of fresh, locally-sourced ingredients, open to both hotel guests and the general public, it offers a warm, welcoming dining experience.
Food is served daily from 1pm to 8.30pm, and while walk-ins are always welcome, it’s recommended to book in advance, especially for larger groups. You can call the hotel directly to reserve your table.
Imaginative Menus, Locally Sourced Flavours
At the heart of the restaurant’s appeal is its seasonal, chef-curated menu that showcases the best of the Peak District region. The talented kitchen team crafts each dish daily with passion and precision, transforming locally grown produce into meals that are both creative and comforting.
From light bites such as Halloumi Fries with Spiced Tomato Dip or a freshly baked Margherita Pizza, to standout mains such as Fillet of Pork, Seared Fillet of Trout, Braised Beef, or Beer Battered Haddock, there’s something to tempt every palate. A variety of fresh salads, indulgent desserts, and a thoughtfully designed children’s menu make it a perfect choice for families too.
To complement the food, guests can choose from a curated selection of wines and locally brewed beers, adding another layer of local flavour to the experience.
