The Tipsy Toad — Restaurant in Derbyshire Dales

Me and 7 friends were visiting Matlock for the weekend and visited here after reading great reviews. The vibes were great but the bar staff not so much. My friend went to the bar and ordered two strawberry daiquiris and I then joined her at the bar and said I was going to get the same. She saw the lady taking the blender to the back and said “if it makes it any easier my friend wants two strawberry daiquiris too” in which the lady then proceeded to roll her eyes. She made some more but only bought over 1 drink and I said “oh sorry we ordered two more”. Her response was to walk over to another member of staff and say “they are pissing me off”. She proceeded to throw full strawberries into the drink which resulted in the leaves just floating to the top. Made me and my friends felt very unwelcome and awkward. We planned on spending all evening in there but left after our first round of drinks because we was made to feel...

Myself and a couple of friends from uni came for a drink due to a birthday do , it wasn’t the best experience upon arrival NOT ONCE did the security guard ask myself and my friends for ID you would have thought the security guard would ask for ID with it being a busy bar on a Saturday night and serving alcohol until late

the bar staff were extremely rude , we felt very uncomfortable knowing the fact we was a whiteness to some sort of incident taking place regarding the female toilets , from what we notice it’s not very LGBTQ friendly myself and my friends left we felt it wasn’t a happy , safe environment to be around

If your local then I suppose it’s okay but if your just a visitor to Matlock I wouldn’t waste your time going to such a horrible place with rude , inconsiderate staff Will definitely not be...

Went in. Girl behind the bar was on her phone with her back to us, and several customers sat at the bar so we couldn't get to it anyway. After standing there a while one of the men sat at the bar, who had already glanced at us when we walked in, got up and went behind the bar and served us. The owner i now think. The girl never flinched as he walked past her. It was very odd. We sat on a sticky table that looked like it used to be a used cooking fat container. Screens everywhere with football on every one. Children in watching it with their parents and a group of young adults carving a huge pile of pumpkins 🎃 with the innards going all over the floor. In fact we had to step over the sweeping brush with was laying on the floor waiting to trip someone up. Strange place....
